Most people quit right before the compound effect kicks in.
They're looking for instant results, and when the scales don't move after a week of effort, they throw in the towel.
But here's the truth: the work you're doing today doesn't benefit you today - it benefits future you.
In this episode, I break down the difference between consistency and persistence, why both are essential for lasting weight loss, and how to stay the course even when nothing seems to be happening.
If you've ever started strong and given up too soon, this one's for you. Stop quitting before it works.

We're talking about why the "self-care" that feels good in the moment often makes tomorrow harder, what you're really doing when you choose the easy option, and how to stop making permanent decisions based on temporary conditions.
If you've ever used chaos as an excuse to abandon your goals, this one's for you. Head to fatlossfundamentals.co.uk if this resonates - let's build your climate, not just survive the weather.

Most women think they just need to keep grinding harder.
More discipline. More hustle. More pressure.
But the truth is, if you don’t stop to celebrate yourself along the way, no amount of weight loss will ever feel like enough.
In today’s episode, I’m breaking down the two seasons of real transformation — Investment Season and Harvest Season — and showing you why both are essential if you want lasting change.
I’ll also give you practical ways to reward yourself without food, how to celebrate non-scale victories, and why recognising your growth is the secret to changing your identity for good.
Because you didn’t start this journey to feel miserable. You started it to feel proud.
Go to fatlossfundamentals.co.uk and let’s make sure you’re building a life you actually enjoy living.
When I first started coaching, I made every mistake you could imagine.
I sugar-coated the truth about fat loss. I was scared to talk about weight. I let clients off the hook because I didn’t want to hurt their feelings. And I tried to help everyone instead of showing up as my real self.
In this episode, I’m sharing exactly what I got wrong, how it changed me as a coach, and why it’s made me better at helping women like you.
If you’re sick of false promises, watered-down advice, and being made to feel like you’re failing when things get hard, you’ll want to listen to this.
Because real fat loss is messy sometimes.
Real change takes work.
And if you’re ready to do it differently, I can help.

If nighttime eating is keeping you stuck in the weight loss cycle, this is the episode you need to hear.

Hunger. The one topic most coaches tiptoe around—but not here.
In this episode, I’m cutting through the fluff to tell you exactly why hunger will happen during weight loss, and why pretending otherwise is setting you up to fail.
