✨ EPISODE 100! ✨
A huge milestone for Far 2 Fabulous — and I’m so excited to finally share this one with you.
Thank you to everyone who’s listened, messaged, and supported the podcast. And of course, thank you Catherine for keeping everything going while I was away. 💛

100 Lessons From A Hundred Episodes...

Confetti, cake, and a truth bomb: hitting 100 episodes wasn’t about luck, it was about relentless consistency, a lot of curiosity, and one very chatty stomach. We look back at the conversations that made us rethink everything—from the guest who schooled us on neuroplasticity to the series that turned hormone chaos into everyday sense. If you’ve ever wondered why your focus wobbles, how gut health actually influences mood, or whether midlife is a slide or a springboard, you’ll feel right at home.

Here’s your soundbite from our 100th episode — can’t wait to hear what you think.
Here’s to the next hundred! 🥂🎙️

Another holiday-week release that I didn’t get to shout about… Episode 98!
Huge thanks again to Catherine for editing and uploading these while I was away 🙌

Doing Everything ‘Right’ and Still Gaining Weight? Here’s Why.

A woman joins the gym, grinds 30–40 minutes of cardio every day, keeps the weights light, fasts four days a week, relies on laxatives, and gains two kilos. Familiar? We’ve seen this pattern again and again, and we break down why it happens—and how to turn it around with a plan that respects stress, hormones, and real life.

Here’s the soundbite — honestly, this episode has so many gems.
Pop it on your walk, school run, or morning coffee break 🎧

Holiday catch-up continues! Here’s Episode 97 of Far 2 Fabulous — one that went out while I was away, so I’m giving it the spotlight it deserves now 🌟

Fire, Trapeze, And A Midlife Marathon with Louisa McShane.

What happens when you mix marathon grit, firefighter standards, and a fear-conquering leap on the flying trapeze? We invited Louisa to the mic to share how a ten-week sprint to the London Marathon collided with a life-changing bid to join the fire service, and how both journeys reshaped her strength, mindset, and identity in her mid-40s.

Sharing the soundbite below — such a powerful moment from the episode.
If you missed this one at the time, now is your chance to dive in.

I’m finally catching up after with the podcast after being away in Japan — and I didn’t get to promote Episode 96 when it went live!

Catherine kept everything running beautifully, so here’s the soundbite from this episode 🎙️💛

This one dives into authenticity, identity & the courage to say no with Pauline Buckley and it’s such an important conversation.

Got my Riverford box today and… I had absolutely no idea what this was 🙈
A quick Google later — meet Salsify.

This funny-looking root is actually a gut-health superstar.
It’s rich in inulin, a prebiotic fibre that feeds your beneficial gut bacteria, supports digestion, and helps keep blood sugar steady.

Think of it as a cross between parsnip and artichoke. You can roast it, mash it, or pop it into soups.
Always learning… and I love that these seasonal boxes push me to try new whole foods.

Have you ever cooked salsify? Any tips?

Advent calendars don’t have to be sugar-filled. I’m loving my Pukka tea advent calendar because every day brings a new flavour — and zero energy crashes.
A simple swap like this supports blood sugar balance, better digestion, and calmer hormones through December.

Do you have have an advent calendar?

I don’t drink coffee but I do love a proper British cup of tea.
And then I went to a tea ceremony in Kyoto… and discovered matcha.
Now I completely understand the hype. 💚

I thought matcha was just a trendy drink.
But in Kyoto, it’s an art form — slow, intentional, almost meditative.
Watching it whisked by hand, breathing in that fresh green aroma…
it felt like the opposite of the rushed, grab-and-go culture we’re used to.

And from a nutrition perspective?
Matcha is absolutely brilliant:

🍃 L-Theanine → calm, steady focus
Unlike coffee’s jolt-and-crash, matcha gives you gentle alertness without anxiety.
Perfect for anyone dealing with burnout, stress, or energy dips.

🍃 Antioxidant powerhouse
Matcha uses the whole leaf, which means the antioxidant level is far higher than normal green tea.
Great for inflammation, skin health, liver support and long-term wellbeing.

🍃 Gentle caffeine without the rollercoaster
The combination of caffeine + L-theanine creates smooth, sustained energy.
Ideal if caffeine usually makes you jittery — or if you avoid coffee like I do.

🍃 Chlorophyll + minerals
Supports detoxification, gut health, and overall vitality.

🍃 Ritual > rush
This is what struck me the most.
The ceremony encourages you to slow down, breathe, and be present — which is exactly the state your body digests and heals best in.

And yes… I loved it so much I bought matcha to bring home.
My morning cup now feels like a tiny moment of Kyoto.” 🌿✨

If you want a soothing, energising alternative to coffee — matcha might just be your new favourite ritual too.

One of the things that surprised me most in Japan was breakfast — and how different it felt in my body compared to a typical Western start to the day.

Traditional Japanese breakfasts are beautifully simple, but nutritionally powerful:

🍚 Rice – gentle, steady energy
Paired with protein, it keeps blood sugar stable without the mid-morning crash.

🍣 Grilled fish – omega-3s + protein
Anti-inflammatory, hormone-supportive, and amazing for brain function.

🍳 Eggs or tofu – extra protein
Keeps you full for hours and supports muscle and metabolic health.

🍲 Miso soup – fermented, gut-friendly, soothing
A warm start to the day that supports digestion and immunity.

🥒 Pickles (tsukemono) – antioxidants + digestive support
Small portions, big impact on the microbiome.

🧂 Seaweed – minerals most of us are low in
Iodine, magnesium, potassium… all the things I regularly see depleted in hair mineral tests.

What I loved most?
There’s no sugar spike, no rush, no “grab-and-go”.
It’s balanced, calm, and satisfying — the exact opposite of cereal, toast, or pastries.

If you struggle with energy dips, cravings, hormone imbalance or mid-morning fatigue, take a page from Japan:
👉 protein + gentle carbs + colour + minerals = stable morning energy.

I came home genuinely inspired to rethink what breakfast should feel like.

Sushi always looks beautiful — but making it yourself takes the appreciation to a whole new level.
I made this plate during a sushi-making class in Japan, and it reminded me why Japanese cuisine is so naturally aligned with good health.

What I love about Japanese food is that it’s balanced without trying:
✔️ protein
✔️ gentle carbs
✔️ colour
✔️ minerals
✔️ mindful portions

No overthinking, no restriction — just simple, fresh ingredients prepared with care.

If you’re looking to eat better, think “Japanese balance”:
protein + colourful plants + minerals + slow eating = nourishment.
