“What are you looking forward to, Lib?”

My grandmother asks me the same question every time I see her.

And honestly… it heals me a little every time.
Because it pulls me out of my to-do list and back into hope.

It reminds me that having something to look forward to isn’t frivolous; it’s fuel.

Especially when life feels like rinse and repeat.

It made me realise how often we move through our days on autopilot:
managing everyone else’s needs,
forgetting that anticipation is part of what makes us feel alive.

So here’s your gentle reminder for this week:
Plan something, even small, that your future self can look forward to.

A walk with a friend.
A slow Saturday morning.
Reading your book in the sun.

Tell me… what are you looking forward to?

You can be taking care of yourself and still have messy, human days.

It doesn’t mean you’ve fallen off.

It doesn’t mean you have to change the plan.

It just means you’re living in the real world.

The goal isn’t nailing everything all of the time.

It’s finding a rhythm you can keep coming back to.

Stay the course 💙

“It’s this nagging ache in my hip…”

“My shoulder flares up every time I reach overhead.”

“I haven’t done anything new…so why does it hurt?”

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.

Tendon issues become way more common during perimenopause and menopause, and it’s not because you’re treating your body badly or moving wrong.

Its hormonal.

When oestrogen drops, tendons lose key support. They become more prone to inflammation, slower to recover, and extra sensitive to compression, especially in areas like the hips, shoulders, and feet.

The fix isn’t to stop moving. It’s to move smarter.

Eccentric strength training- slow, controlled movements that gently load the tendon- can help rebuild resilience and reduce pain.

You’re not broken. Your body is just adapting.
And there’s a better way to support it.

Have you got a pesky tendon issue that just won’t shift?

Tell me where it’s showing up for you ⬇️ let’s talk about how to support it.

Everywhere you look, women are being told to fear cortisol.

They’re being sold products to “balance their hormones”.

They’re being told “beware of HIIT”; it will spike your stress hormone.

But the truth? Cortisol is not bad; it’s misunderstood.

I break down what cortisol actually does, why you need it, and how to train with your hormones (not against them) in this week’s podcast episode.

Rating how hard it’s been to actually do the things that have made me feel better in my 40s 💙

0 = piece of cake
10 = bloody hard work

Funny how the things that make the biggest difference are rarely the easiest to start.
But worth it? Yep, 100%

Which one’s hardest for you right now? 👇

I wish more women would stop blaming their posture , because posture isn’t the problem.

Stillness is.

Even the most “perfect” setup can’t fix tension if your body never moves.

In this week’s episode of The Everyday GLOW Show, I explain what really causes the hunch (hint: not your laziness), and my 3 tips for a quick desk detox you can try today.

GATEWAY HABITS

My brain still resists movement some mornings, so I don’t even try to “motivate” myself. I start by lowering the bar.

These three moves are my gateway habit.

They wake me up, remind me I have a body, and trick me into feeling good enough to keep going.

Three moves. Three minutes. No overthinking.

Try it tomorrow, or choose your own, and see how different your morning feels.

After 20 years as a physio, here’s what I know for sure:
the little things, done right, create the biggest change.

10 minutes a day is enough to feel genuinely stronger
if you:
👉follow a well-structured plan
👉meet your body where it’s at
👉keep challenging it to adapt

AND if you build a simple system that fits your life,
not the other way around.

If you don’t want to plan it all yourself, I’ve already done the thinking for you inside GLOW10; 10-minute, physio-designed sessions that actually work.

Just want a taste of what 10mins/day feels like?

I’ve used hinging (yep, even with weights) twice in the past week for clients as a TREATMENT for back pain.

Most people think their back needs rest (or a good massage) when it’s sore… but often, it needs to movement.

Hinging reminds your glutes and hamstrings to come to the party, so your back doesn’t have to hang out alone.

It’s one of the simplest ways to build real, lasting resilience.

That’s why it’s in every one of my GLOW10 program, in some form.
