Time for a little reintroduction.

Things look different here now, and I wanted to share a bit about my journey and what this space is becoming.

Over the past couple of years, life and business have changed a lot for me.

I’m moving away from weight loss content and focusing on what matters most to me.

I hope this space feels welcoming, honest, and real.

I’m looking forward to sharing more of this next chapter with you.

Thanks for being here 🤍

Running a business is hard.

Having a supportive network around that gets it makes all the difference.

I first attended Unique Ladies back during lockdown. It was an online meeting and, being brand new to the business world, jumped at the chance for a one to one meeting with chief Unique Lady, Suzy Orr.

She spent a full hour giving me advice that was solid gold, opened her contact book and was beyond generous.

There wasn't a sales pitch or hidden agenda anywhere to be seen.

And that, to me, is what makes Unique Ladies different to other business networking.

It's about making genuine connections, meeting like minded woman and sharing the highs and lows of running a business without judgement.

Of course, there’s also the opportunity for you to promote your business. We encourage you to bring your sales banner and products to the meetings. And to share your services in our private Facebook groups.

But we see you for all that you are and support you through every step of your business journey.

We meet at Crosscrake Community Hub on the last Thursday of every month and would love to see you there.

Send me a DM for more details.

Exhausted from doing everything for everyone else?

Want to start taking care of yourself, but either don't have time or don't know where to start?

I understand.

You're not doing anything wrong. You're doing too much. With too little support.

And when you're ready to change things, with the support you deserve, get in touch. My DMs are always open 💛.

I've been a little quiet lately, so let me reintroduce myself…

Hi, I’m Catherine.

I help busy professionals who are brilliant at looking after everyone else…but not so great at looking after themselves.

If that sounds like you, you’re in the right place.

You might’ve noticed a bit of a shift in what I share, because I've moved away from weight loss coaching.

The reason?

The most meaningful client wins, the ones I’m most proud of? They have nothing to do with the number on the scales.

They sound like:

💛 “I’ve got more energy, I can actually run around with my kids now”

💛 “I don't hate my body anymore”

💛 “I’ve started setting boundaries. I don't do everything anymore”

💛 “I left my toxic job because it was making it impossible to look after myself”

💛 “I’ve realised I’m worth taking care of”

That’s the kind of change I want for you.

So if you’re working long hours, life feels relentless, and you’re constantly running on empty, I want you to know it’s possible to do things differently.

You can feel better in your body and mind without adding more pressure to your day and without turning your life upside down. It’s about finding what works for you. And fits your busy life.

And that's exactly how I can help you.

I’ll be sharing tools, mindset shifts, and reminders to help you take proper care of yourself, even on the busiest days.

No guilt. No pressure to be perfect.

Just small, powerful changes that make a big difference.

If you’re ready for this kind of change, I’ve currently space for two 1:1 clients. Send me a DM and let’s chat.

7 lessons from 7 years of marriage ❤️⬇️

💍 Marriage is a commitment. Don't do it if you're not all the way in. Sometimes, especially early on, you'll have moments that resemble a rom com happy ending. It won't always be that way. Be prepared to work through some tough times together.

💍 Nothing is perfect. That doesn’t mean it can't be great. The person you live with driving you round the bend? Pretty normal. As long as there's always respect, you're probably gonna have to put with at least some annoying crap 🤦‍♀️😂.

💍 There's no point comparing your marriage to anyone else's. Comparing your behind the scenes to someone else's social media highlight reel? Don't. You have no idea what their life is like behind closed doors.

💍 Practice gratitude 🙏. Easier said than done when someone hasn't figured out how to put their socks in the washing basket after 7 years 😂 Seriously, this is huge. It stops the bitterness and resentment that can build up from being taken for granted. It'll also help you feel closer, more appreciated & happier. Win, win, win ❤️.

💍 Keep being you. You're part of a couple, yes. But you're still a fabulous individual. Take care of your health, your money, your hobbies, your friends. You'll be happier. Stronger. A healthy marriage? Will be stronger for it.

💍 Find magic in the mundane. Even if the love of your life is a party animal, much of your life will be normal, routine, every day stuff. Our magic is making each other laugh. We're idiots together 😂. It's important ❤️.

💍 Create an adventure. It can't all be boring, of course. Make memories together. Stuff you can look back on with fondness for years to come. We have SO many travel mishap stories that never get old. Like travelling around France with a cat. Bloody hard work at the time, but funny to look back on 🤦‍♀️😂.

And, if you really think about it, all these lessons can be applied to health as well.

Let me know your experience of marriage. Any lessons you'd add? ⬇️❤️

As a member of the UK & International Health Coaches Association I am part of a professional body that upholds, delivers and advances professional excellence.

So you can be confident you are working with a nutrition coach that is committed to always working with integrity, professionalism and to the highest standards.

"It was so much more than nutrition for me"

Leanne went from being an exhausted Mum, feeling chaotic and wondering, "How can I drag myself out of this?" to feeling calmer, more energised and having a more relaxed attitude towards food while ALSO feeling trimmer and more confident.

Here's the thing - I wish I could take all the credit for this, but I can't. It was all her hardwork that made it happen.

Because nutrition coaching is a partnership. When we work together? We're a team. But you're the one putting in the reps, doing the real work that's gonna make a difference.

As a client, you're the one out there on the playing field, full kit on, all in, getting muddy on the pitch while I stand on the side lines, cheering you on and enthusiastically giving you advice and guidance. Think Alex Ferguson on the side-lines at (old school) Man United, but a little more cheerful and a lot less sweary.

You? You're the Beckham to my Ferguson. Basically, you're the main event. You just don't quite believe it yet.

I'll bring:

💪Your game plan

🏋‍♀️The high level accountability

📣The unwavering support.

And when you put all this together with your:

💫 Decision to finally stop feeling exhausted

💫 Commitment to your health

💫 Bravery for making the change

💫 Courage for stepping (slightly) out of your comfort zone

💫 Dedication to the health & well being of you and your family.

You'll find yourself, just like Leanne, feeling:

💛 Healthier

💛 Calmer

💛 Energised

💛 More relaxed around food

💛 Less snappy

And the ripple effects? Lead to having a better relationship with your family, who are also starting to eat more healthily. It's like winning the treble 🏆

And it's no less than what you deserve.

When you're ready, I'm only a message away ❤️.

Can taking a lunch break, like the French do, make a difference to our health and weight?

Absolutely!

Want to know more? You can read my article in the months The Lancashire magazine

If you haven't managed to puck up your cooy yet, try this:

Set aside at least 15 minutes a day for a lunch break. Put your phone away. Move away from your desk. Eat your food slowly. Take your time. Enjoy it.

Do this every day for a week and notice if you feel any difference.

Even if you don't feel it straight away, chances are your stress levels will reduce which can support our digestion and help us to absorb more nutrients from the food we eat.

Happy 4th Wedding Anniversary to us 💖⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
10 years ago being married and living abroad was my dream. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now? I'm married and spent 7 years working in France. If you told 30 year old me that was my future, I wouldn't have dared to believe it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For one, I wouldn't have known how to make it happen. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I don't know any decent single men. I couldn't speak any foreign languages, apart from high school French.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, I did nothing. For another 4 years.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
During that time I literally spent hours researching working abroad. Didn't do anything about it. Just kept thinking about it.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Then, the loss of a truly beloved relative shook my whole family. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That made me realise, what the hell am I waiting for? Life is way too short.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, I finally did something about it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I didn't know what would happen. I did know (don't we always) what the first step was. I'd always known, I was just to scared to actually do anything about it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, I took the first step. Then the next step. 6 months later I was pootling along to France in my trusty little Vauxhall and 7 months later met Chris.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now, of course, life hasn't been all rainbows and unicorns since then and we've had our ups and downs, but it's been a lot of fun and there's been a lot of really great stuff, like, you know, our wedding 💖.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The reason I'm telling you this today is:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Sometimes we spend so much time looking forward & focusing on what we want we forget to be grateful for what already have. Take some time today to acknowledge what you have & all the work you've done to get here.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. Don't wait to follow your dreams. Do it now. Take the first step. Then the next step and just see what happens. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Much love, Catherine xx

We all know the effect caffeine has on sleep. What about foods that can help us get a better night's sleep?

The reason I'm sharing this? If you're trying to lose weight and you're not getting enough sleep, it's gonna be so much harder.

Just as a side note - frozen cherries, incredible possibly the most delicious thing I've ever eaten 😋 and they contain melatonin. Highly recommended 👌

Cheers to surviving another week of diet culture bullsh*t.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Remember that:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💜 Food is more than just fuel.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💜 Carbs are not the enemy. Neither are calories. We literally need them to survive.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💜 Just because something works for someone else, doesn't mean it will work for you.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💜 Exercise is for so much more than burning calories. It can be a celebration of how amazing our bodies are and what they can do.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💜 There's not such thing as the perfect diet, so don't waste time chasing something that doesn't exist.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💜 If there is such a thing as a perfect diet it's one you can stick to consistently and makes you feel good.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💜 Eating chocolate without worrying about it is way healthier than eating a salad under stress (thanks for that one)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Loved this post? You'll probably love my blog post "What I learned about weight loss from living in France". Head to the link in my bio to read it.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have a fab weekend 💜.

29/10/2021

A little reminder this Friday - if you've tried something this week that didn't go to plan, know that you are one step closer to success.

If it didn't work, reflect on it, learn from it, move on.

And don't forget to celebrate how amazing you are for taking that step outside your comfort zone. No matter what the result.

Have a wonderful weekend 💖
