The Female Fitness Podcast

In today’s episode of The Female Fitness Podcast I talk about the changes I’ve made from a nutrition perspective to support my running goals as someone who’s training for a backyard ultra and half marathon PB, using what I learnt from my performance nutrition diploma! I reference my experience coaching clients with their running goals, having coached women towards 10k, half marathon, and marathon...

It's been a hot minute so in today's episode of The Female Fitness Podcast I update you all on everything that's been going on. And share with you the things I did to help me balance running my coaching business with moving house and training for a backyard ultra marathon! I am SO happy to be back podcasting so I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I loved recording it. Thank you so...

In today's episode of The Female Fitness Podcast I talk about the cost of staying where you, are as opposed to taking the first step towards making a change. Because the cost of staying stuck always feels smaller than it is in the moment, until you finally step away from it and realise what you've been giving up or missing out on. And I hope that with today's podcast I can inspire some...

Last week there was a trend going round on instagram stories where you uploaded a photo from 5 years ago (sorry, how was 2021 5 YEARS ago!?) I scrolled through my camera roll to find that this was the year I did a couple of photoshoots. The pictures I had saved ranged from lingerie to smiley pictures of me in a shirt, and I remember really enjoying these shoots. I think photoshoots can be a great...

In today's episode of The Female Fitness Podcast I give you an insight into what coaching looks like with me, using a client case study as an example. This client came to me wanting to improve her confidence in the gym and become consistent with her training and nutrition in order to improve her health, performance, build muscle tissue, and make progress with fat loss. I discuss the individual...

I recently got a message from a listener that said she admires how consistent I am with the content I put out into the world, and the quality I maintain. This coach wants to start their own podcast but has struggled with consistency and marketing in the past, and would like me to share my advise/what works for me so I thought I’d record a podcast on the topic! For context over the last year alone...

On Saturday a friend of mine asked me what I was training for at the moment, and my initial answer was ‘nothing really’. I then corrected myself - because despite not training for a specific competition or end date, my training DOES have real purpose. I’m training for both my current and future self. I don’t know about you, but I want to be strong and capable. I want to be healthy, feel good, func...

I believe it's important for me to practice what I preach as a coach, putting the tools and methods into practice that I recommend to clients. So in today's episode of the female fitness podcast I share some insights into my own journey when it comes to my relationship with myself, work, my body, and rest. And how the progress I've made has impacted my life both personally and professi...

Intention setting helps us behave more consciously rather than passively.  When we’re working to change our behaviour it’s going to be a conscious effort, it’s not going to happen without thought or intention. Often social occasions are where people feel like they’ve ‘slipped up’ with their goals whatever they may be, or behaved in a way they don’t want to behave.  This can be down to factors such...

Period tracking apps CAN be incredibly helpful. I use them myself at times, and I have clients who use them too! But there are occasions where they could be doing more harm than good for you as an individual - for example if they're becoming a self fulfilling prophesy, driving up your stress levels, or if you can't stop checking them. So in today's podcast I discuss that. Talking throu...

In today’s episode of The Female Fitness Podcast I talk about what people often get wrong about consistency. Because consistency IS key if you wish to achieve long-term success with your health and fitness goals. But looking at it as ticking every box every day, never missing a training session, or eating a perfect diet, is going to prevent you from achieving your goals by making it more likely fo...

In today's episode of The Female Fitness Podcast I talk about all things social media and how it can impact our body image. Social media is not inherently bad! In fact, it can be used for a lot of good.  But in order for the outcome to be positive we have to be intentional with the way that we use it and how much time we spend on it. So in today's podcast I talk about how you might audit y...

Many of you may have started the year strong when it comes to achieving your goals - motivation was high and you were all in! But now we're a month in. The initial excitement of setting and achieving those goals has subsided, and many of you may be finding it hard to sustain your efforts. You're not alone if this is you! I've recorded today's podcast to help you understand WHY you...

I often talk to clients who want to get into resistance training, but are a little worried they might feel 'bulky' as a result of doing so. I understand this fear, especially when you might be exposed to many people on social media who do look more jacked than you might like! But here's why that doesn't need to be a concern for you, and why you SHOULD incorporate resistance trainin...

In today’s episode of The Female Fitness Podcast I talk about how we often we end up placing far too much emphasis on the specific end goal, and not enough on the process itself when it comes to health and fitness (and business too!).
