“Walk a mile in my shoes”

Certain little quotes and sayings always stick with us for one reason or another

‘Walk a mile in my shoes’ was something my granny always used to say

And for the past 5 years or so I have been helping young people develop their emotional intelligence. Establish emotional regulation skills and ultimately build a toolkit that allows them to avoid poor mental health outcomes.

That little quote from my granny jumped into my head today when I was out in a school

And it reminded me that people can study theory, people can have all the information in the world

But the best person to help others is the person who has navigated the path. Who has had the pitfalls. Who has walked through the places.

Those are the people who can help others.

3️⃣ Ways To Successfully Train Around A Busy Life

1️⃣ Most people choose goals based on motivation instead of reality

So they set goals like 5/6 training sessions per week. If someone picks a 5–6 day split but can only realistically train 3 days, the programme fails before it even starts.

For a lot of people I coach, it looks like:

• 2–3 gym sessions per week
• 45–60 minutes max
• Simple structure (full body or upper/lower)

2️⃣ Stop focusing on the outcome and look at the things you need to do to get the outcome

Instead of “I want to lose 10kg.” ❌

Think, “8–10k steps daily average, protein with every meal, train 3 times a week” ✅

3️⃣ Your program should be simple. Boringly simple.

• 4–6 core lifts
• repeatable
• clear progression (add reps, add weight, or add sets)

⚫️ Squat pattern
⚫️ Hinge pattern
⚫️ Push
⚫️ Pull
⚫️ Core

This cuts down on decision fatigue. You don’t have a lot of mental bandwidth because the rest of your life is manic.

And if you’re sick of having to think about and balance your diet; training & habits - you could always outsource it to a coach.

Working with me 1:1 allows you to delegate and do

I do the heavy lifting for you … so all you need to do is…well, the actual heavy lifting

Attachment Theory - if we didn’t get what we needed from our parents then we found it in food

2026 - the year of the yap. I want to put out more chatty type content that feels like a conscious flow of thoughts rather than constantly posting snappy, edited content

What are your thoughts on attachment? Do you think binge eating was developed later in life or in your childhood?

Avoiding burnout

There’s a double edged sword that comes into play the minute you decide to better yourself

Your day to day life, your family life and your work life already has you living at near capacity

Then ON TOP of that, you’re now motivated to make a change to your health and fitness

But because you’re currently super motivated you’re not going to give up on the gym. Even though your life is manic.

You keep pushing and eventually…you burnout

The answer is simple really…

Structure, accountability and seeing the bigger picture instead of prioritising short term fixes
