Description

Ever found yourself halfway through your child’s leftovers… without even realising it? In this episode, we’re talking about those reactive food moments — when stress, tiredness, or emotion take over, and you find yourself eating on autopilot. I introduce you to a powerful tool I use myself (and coach clients through):

👉 The Strategic Pause.

It’s a 5-step process that helps you move from guilt and impulse… to intention and alignment. We’ll explore:

✅ Why you reach for food even when you’re not hungry
✅ How to slow down and ask better questions before you act
✅ A new way to make food decisions that feel grounded, not guilt-ridden
✅ How to build identity-based trust so your habits match who you want to be This isn’t about perfection.

It’s about making one aligned choice at a time — and learning to trust yourself again. Whether you're a busy mum, an equestrian balancing routines, or a professional juggling 50 priorities… this episode will give you the pause you didn’t know you needed.
