Everyone’s talking about “eat more protein!” oh the pressure to add another thing on our plate 🙃😆We’ve got the message…but how much do we need to be eating?
For women aiming to build lean muscle, improve fitness and strength, and/or lose body fat…use this calculation 💪 The more active you are, go higher on the protein per kg. However I recommend starting at about 1.5g protein per kg of body weight for the average woman.

If your goal this year is to lose that extra weight, build lean muscle, improve your fitness, age well or just feel your best self! All of these habits will support your body’s metabolism, energy, gut health and hormones which are the underpins to maintaining a healthy body composition.

Even the Nutritionist falls for marketing 🤦‍♀️Read your labels!
• How to know if a food is too high in sugar?
• What to look for on the label?
Hear about my fail on choosing what I thought was a healthy nut spread…

It’s not who you were. It’s who you’ve become that matters ✨

When you take your kids to a movie and the final quote leaves you in 😭🤦‍♀️😂

One of the best lessons I’ve learnt in life is that…self compassion is the antidote to shame.

Shame can be debilitating, it can stop us from moving forward, from making the changes or becoming the person we want to be.

Practice more self compassion, it truly does work 🤍
