Do you want a piece of the pie? I certainly DO!!! 🥧✨

The last few weeks we’ve baked a pie as the dinner of choice on a Sunday – and we are totally loving it! Comforting, warming and cosy for the end of the week.

Get involved and join in the fun – serves 2 👩‍🍳

Chicken Sausage and Vegetable Pie 🥧

You’ll need:

5 Chicken Sausages (Heck for us!)
Frylight Olive Oil cooking spray
Half an onion, diced
1.5 garlic cloves, minced
1 carrot, diced
2 celery sticks, diced
200g chopped tomatoes
Half a courgette, diced
500g potatoes, boiled
150ml chicken stock
1 tbsp tomato puree
1 tsp oregano, dried
1 tsp basil, dried
1 tsp paprika, dried
20ml milk of choice

Steps to follow:

1️⃣Spray a pan with Frylight. Add the chicken sausages and cook, breaking them into pieces accordingly. Once browned, remove from the pan and set aside.
2️⃣Add the onion and garlic to the same pan. Fry for a few minutes before adding the carrot, courgette and celery into the mix.
3️⃣Pour in the chopped tomatoes, tomato puree, chicken stock and all the seasonings. Stir the chicken sausages in and let the mixture simmer for approximately 20 minutes.
4️⃣In the meantime, place some water in a separate pan. Use this to boil the potatoes, until tender. Drain before mashing with milk and any salt and pepper for seasoning.
5️⃣Spoon the sausage ragu into an ovenproof dish and top with the mashed potato. Place into the oven at 180°C for around 30 minutes – for that extra crunch on top.

I served mine with my absolute fave tenderstem broccoli for all the goodness🥦

✨ Optional: Add a little cheese on top or a splash of Lea & Perrins Worcestershire sauce (Brad said this totally took the dish to top tier!!)

ENJOY! 😋

Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model recently dropped on Netflix - delving into the highs, lows, and controversies of the iconic reality series ... WOW.

I wasn’t a huge fan of the show when I was younger, but I wanted to watch the docuseries to better understand the industry… and honestly? What went on behind the scenes is shocking. 👀

What was packaged as a “fashion fantasy” and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for young women wanting to make it in the modelling world, now feels deeply uncomfortable to watch. The body-shaming. The public humiliation. The emotional manipulation disguised as “toughening them up.”

Women were criticised for their weight, their skin, their personalities, their natural features — even their trauma was used for storylines. It wasn’t about empowerment.

At the time, it was normalised. It was “just how the industry worked.”

But watching it now, through a modern lens, it’s hard not to feel angry.

Yes, body image pressures still exist today — absolutely. But there is far more awareness, more accountability, and more strength in women to call out what isn’t right. There are conversations about mental health. About consent. About diversity beyond tokenism. About protecting people, not breaking them.

It really was a reality show of its time.
And thank goodness we’ve evolved.

From a personal perspective and as someone who is consciously trying to now gain weight the narrative is very conflicting. I do wonder, how much of what I watched or digitally digested growing up as a young and vulnerable girl, has impacted me now🤔

Anyhow...have you watched it yet? What did you think? 👇

This weekend has been one filled with joy, balance and of course Bella 🐾✨

Sometimes it’s the simple moments and precious time with loved ones, that brings the most balance and remind us to slow down before the week begins again.

Monday is here and I wanted to remind you all the importance of setting your new week up right. You have to start with intention, as that sets the tone for everything that follows. So whether that’s booking a class, moving your body, taking a moment for yourself, calling a loved one, writing a to do list or whatever else... go get it done! Start as you mean to go on.

If you’ve been meaning to prioritise yourself this month, now is the perfect time. March is moving quickly and the final appointments and class spaces are starting to fill up.

✨ Check out the link in my bio to book your classes
✨ Final massage appointments for March are now available (see my post from Thursday for my most recent availability)

Let’s start the week strong, grounded and focused on feeling good. 💫

Happy International Women’s Day 🤍

I took a moment to reflect this morning on what it takes to be a woman in this day and age👀
To put it simply...being a woman today can feel like carrying a hundred expectations at once - right?!

To be a mother, build a career, take care of everyone else, cook, clean, stay organised, stay strong. Look good, be freshly waxed, have cute nails, keep up appearances, show up for work, show up for family, show up for life.

The pressure to do it all – and do it perfectly – is something so many women quietly carry every single day.

So today I encourage a moment to pause.

To step back and celebrate being women exactly as we are. Not for how productive we’ve been, how much we’ve achieved, or how perfectly we’ve balanced everything… but simply for being.

Join me in celebrating the women in your life who support you, lift you up, and inspire you.
The women who show up, the women who try their best, the women who simply exist and are enough.

Today we celebrate strength, softness, resilience and community.

Here’s to women — just as we are. 💫

Showcasing my absolute heroes in this post...what would I do without these strong, supportive and just all round amazing women in my life🩷

Last night’s dinner was a real treat. Big on flavour, little on effort and served a smile all round!

🍗🔥 Peri Chicken Rice One-Pot 🔥🍚

You’ll need (serves 2):

Low-calorie cooking spray
Half a tbsp lemon juice
100g green beans (halved, with tips and tails off)
1 tbsp tomato puree
75g tomato passata
1 tbsp Nando’s peri-peri sauce
Half an onion, diced
1 yellow pepper, diced
250g diced chicken breast
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 pouch of long grain white rice
Small bunch of parsley
Half a tbsp smoked paprika
Half a tsp cayenne pepper and ground turmeric
Half a tsp ground cumin, ground coriander and dried oregano

Steps to take:

1️⃣ Make your Nando’s inspired medium peri peri rub; combine the turmeric, cayenne pepper, dried oregano, ground cumin, ground coriander and sugar.
2️⃣ Heat some cooking spray in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Add the onion, pepper, garlic and chicken. Add the Nando’s inspired rub and stir well. Cook for around 10 minutes until all ingredients are soft and cooked through.
3️⃣ Stir in the tomato puree and peri-peri sauce until coated.
4️⃣ Follow with the passata, lemon juice, green beans and 65ml of water (and more if necessary)
5️⃣ Bring to a simmer and tip in the rice.
6️⃣ Mix all together over a medium-high heat for around 5 minutes, until piping hot.
7️⃣ Top with parsley and serve immediately

⚠️ WARNING: this dish has got a bit of a kick to it 🌶️ – I recommend having some yoghurt to hand to add if you want to curb the spice hit...or be like Brad and add half a pot!! (Dare you ask what his Nando's spice level is🔥)

Save this recipe for later…and let me know your thoughts once you try😍

DID YOU KNOW💬

Reformer Pilates is one of the most powerful protective tools a woman can use during menopause!

Reformer Pilates helps to:
🦴 support bone density through controlled resistance
🦵 protect and strengthen joints with low-impact movement
🔥 support metabolism, posture, and energy levels
💙 maintain confidence, balance, and independence in later life

Many of the wonderful women I work with come to me with different barriers like low confidence, joint pain, fatigue – all typical when going through the menopause/peri-menopause/post-menopause. But these are not ‘excuses’.

With the right approach, Reformer Pilates can be safe, effective, and incredibly empowering – barrier or no barrier! It doesn’t have to be intense — it just needs to be smart, supported, and appropriate for your body.

👉 If you’re in perimenopause, menopause, post-menopause and want support with movement designed for this stage of life, do get in touch…there is plenty I can share with you to help.

Welcome to a glorious Monday.
A new month. A fresh week. A clean slate. ✨

March is here — a perfect time to reflect on February and reset your intentions.

Instead of beating yourself up for the goals you haven’t hit yet… choose compassion. Choose patience. It’s been a wild start to the year, and you’re still here, still trying — that counts.

Start small.

What’s one thing you can add to your Monday that moves you closer to the person you want to become?

💧 An extra glass of water
🥦 A little more fruit and veg
🔥 A BEATZ class for that extra energy and burn (link to book in bio/drop a dm)

Progress isn’t about doing everything perfectly.
It’s about doing something consistently.

Focus on what you can achieve.
Take one step today.
Then another tomorrow.

Let’s go. 💪
