One Obsession At A Time
One Obsession At A Time is a monthly deep-dive into the self-improvement ideas we become temporarily obsessed with - from Feng Shui and decluttering to alternate-day fasting, manifesting, organising, running, and more. Each month, I choose one obsession and live inside it with intention. I reads the books, apply the ideas in real life, report what actually happens, and decide at the end whether the obsession is worth keeping or letting go. Listen in and obsess with me! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Alternate Day Fasting isn't Linear, Babes - It's a Cycle 14.11.2025 14:49
In this episode, I’m breaking down one of the biggest mindset shifts we all need in Alternate Day Fasting: ✨ ADF isn’t a straight line — it’s a cycle. We don’t “arrive.” We don’t graduate. We don’t hit a finish line. We move through seasons, rhythms, wobbles, wins, resets and returns… and every loop grows us a little bit more. If you’ve ever felt like you “fell off,” “started over,” or “ruined ev...
