I remember what that feeling was like. It scares us doesn't it? You wonder how you’re going to make it to 40, let alone 50. It feels like the world has played a cruel joke on you. Those thoughts always whirling around in your head, that tight, nervous feeling in your chest and tummy, they make you believe that you’re flawed. You believe that there is something inherently wrong with you.

But there isn’t

For so long, I saw food as the enemy—something to control, measure, and restrict. But food isn’t just fuel; it’s nourishment for both body and mind.

Instead of obsessing over calories, I started thinking about how food made me feel. What gave me energy? What helped my digestion? What supported my mood?

When my anxiety started in 1995 the word wasn’t even applied to what I was feeling, even by the doctor. In fact I remember him referring to it as ‘another funny turn’.

On the outside it appeared I was living a very normal life and doing what someone very normal did, but on the inside I felt everything was rapidly closing in on me.

As employees are often the face of the organisation, their wellbeing, satisfaction and motivation have a direct impact on customer satisfaction, productivity and overall business performance. This raises the question: should businesses care about the happiness of their employees?

The answer is a resounding yes!

To acknowledge and celebrate International Women’s Day 2023 and the Embrace Equity focus for this year, it’s time to get clear on why women living healthily is key to driving the changes that we need for a fair world.

One of the big things we need to better support everyone on is the topic of menopause. We need to normalise the conversation on this, especially in the workplace.

Providing services and having policies in place to support women navigating menopause is essential, but so to is creating an organisational culture where awareness of menopause, and talking openly about it, for everyone, is the norm.

What does wellness in the workplace really look like?

Find out why we believe it’s so much more than ticking the box for lunch and learns, employee assistance programmes or cycle to work schemes.

It should be a part of your culture that is lived and breathed by every single one of your employees from the top down because it forms the personality of your company.

Being healthy is everywhere you look, so you feel like it’s time you did it too. You join the local gym, set your alarm early four mornings a week and throw yourself into smashing your new year goals.

Your body aches. It hurts to sit down and walk up the stairs. You’re wondering if this healthy living thing just isn’t for you.

By the end of January, you’ve thrown the towel in. It’s impossible to get healthy. It hurts too much. You don’t have time. You feel worse, not better.

Worrying about whether you’re thin, slim, attractive, worthy enough to go to your Christmas social event?

What’s finally changed for me over the past few years is that I don’t worry about starving myself to feel good enough and ready to have a good time. I no longer let a social occasion pass by or fill me with dread because I haven’t had time to diet. I also won’t let more valuable minutes of my life be consumed with feeling like I’m failing because I’m not a certain size or shape.

What is stress and why is it something that can wreak havoc on your health and happiness? In a world that is so busy for most of us, it’s easy to miss the signs of stress, and to shrug off the impact it can have on you. It’s important to check-in with yourself on how stress might be showing up for you and how to start taking steps to manage it in the best way possible and avoid burnout.

How many times have you told yourself you’re useless or not capable? Or that the reason things didn’t go to plan is because you’re not good enough?

Are you living like you have all the time in the world, holding off doing the things you really want to do and making the changes you wish you could make to live a happier life?

After 20 years working for global giant Nike I’m finally embodying their infamous slogan Just Do It. I want you to Just Do It too so you can live a full and purpose driven life. I’m helping you to have no regrets and get doing it right now.

There is no quick fix to putting a new habit in place, nor is there an easy route to follow. A habit will always take willpower, commitment and consistency. But, when fear sets in about your ability to make the change happen, you fill your head with negativity which quickly spreads and takes hold, making you believe you’re not capable or worthy of doing it. So you don’t even get off the starting block. You tell yourself it’s ok, you are fine to stay put, forget the change and building any new habits.

How many times have you been going on a diet, or started your diet on a Monday, only to fall off it by the time Friday comes along?

Diet culture is a huge issue in our society with so many women falling prey to the never-ending quest to conform with their size and shape. But the reason the diet industry is so big and profitable is because it’s designed to make this continuous cycle of yo-yo dieting one that you believe is the only way to find your worth and happiness.

I want to help women and girls understand what I diet really is, and share why it’s something you actually will have for your whole life, not only a few days or weeks at a time when you have the willpower to force yourself to stay on one.

Why is everyone going on about how important self-care is and making sure you’re having your self-care Sunday?

If you are struggling with low confidence, maybe only in certain areas of your life I want you to know that when you improve your confidence here, it’s going to make an immediate difference to how you feel and go after your goals. The success you want is well within your reach!
