The 4Cs Podcast

This episode is the final part of The Becoming Series, and it’s where everything comes together. After exploring identity, self-trust, why we give up on ourselves, and what 2025 actually taught me, this episode is about how I’m carrying those lessons forward into 2026.I share how my approach to goal setting has completely changed. Instead of setting goals from urgency, comparison, or pressure, I now build them from identity, self-trust, and systems that can survive real life. I talk about why most goals fail at the design stage, how urgency creates burnout, and why continuation matters more than intensity.This isn’t about setting impressive goals or starting over in January. It’s about designing goals that respect your energy, your nervous system, and the life you actually live. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by goal setting or trapped in all-or-nothing cycles, this episode will help you approach the year ahead with clarity, steadiness, and confidence.

This episode is a full, honest reflection on what 2025 actually asked of me, not just physically or professionally, but emotionally and mentally. From running long distances while building a business, to showing up consistently online, to navigating body image, boundaries, doubt, and growth, this year changed how I define success.In this episode, I talk about the cost of consistency, the identity shifts that happen behind the scenes, and what it really takes to stop restarting and start staying. I share what surprised me most about achieving big goals, the moments that tested my self-trust, and the lessons that reshaped how I approach health, business, and life.This isn’t a highlight reel. It’s an honest look at what happens when you choose alignment over intensity and integrity over pressure and why those lessons matter far more than outcomes.

In the last episode, I spoke about identity, the quiet force behind every goal you set. In this episode, I take that conversation a step further and talk about what actually turns identity into something real: self-trust. Because becoming someone who shows up for herself doesn’t come from motivation or perfect routines. It comes from the promises you keep when life is busy, demanding, and unpredictable.In this episode, I explore why so many women struggle to trust themselves, especially in seasons like December. I talk about how unrealistic expectations quietly break self-trust, why “I’ll start again in January” often keeps us stuck, and the important difference between pausing and quitting. I also share why consistency isn’t about doing everything perfectly, but about staying connected to yourself when life gets full.This episode is especially for teachers and women who are used to putting everyone else first. If you’ve ever felt like you fall off the moment life gets hard, this conversation will help you understand why and how to keep moving forward without burning yourself out.

In this episode, I’m diving into the part of change that completely transformed my own life but that most women never stop to consider-identity. For so long, I thought my struggles came down to motivation, discipline, willpower, or having the “perfect plan,” but none of that ever stuck because the identity underneath it hadn’t shifted yet. December has a way of exposing who we think we are, the woman who always falls off, the woman who puts everyone else first, the woman who waits for January to start again but those identities were formed long before we even realised it.I talk about how identity is shaped, especially for teachers who live inside systems designed to make them feel like they’re always falling short. I share why micro-promises matter, how self-trust is rebuilt through tiny pieces of evidence, and why you don’t need perfection to become someone who shows up for herself.This episode is the foundation for the entire December series. Before we talk about goals or habits or routines, you need to understand who you’re becoming because identity drives everything that follows.

In this thought-provoking episode, I dive into one of the biggest misunderstandings women hold about progress-the belief that it only counts when it shows up on the scales or in perfect routines. Through my own reflections, insights from behavioural psychology, and the realities I see every day in the lives of busy women and teachers, I unpack why this old narrative of “all or nothing” has held so many of us back and how a more sustainable, compassionate, and empowering approach can completely transform the way we move through our journeys.I also share what I learned during a seven-week period where I stepped back from training entirely-not because I’d given up, but because my capacity had shifted. Instead of spiralling into guilt or abandoning myself, I found new layers of emotional maturity, identity growth, and genuine consistency emerging. In this episode, I explain why returning matters far more than perfection, why slowing down doesn’t mean you’re falling behind, how comparison warps your perception of progress, and why the small daily decisions we barely acknowledge are often the most influential ones.If you’ve ever felt “behind,” questioned whether you’re doing enough, or struggled to see progress you can’t physically measure, this episode will help you recognise the quieter, more meaningful signs of growth you’ve probably been overlooking. You’ll walk away with a different definition of success-one rooted in resilience, self-awareness, and the courage to keep choosing yourself through every season of life.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re trying so hard but still “not seeing results,” this is the episode you need in your ears today.For YEARS I attached my entire worth and every ounce of success, to the number on the scales. If it went down, I was proud. If it went up, I spiralled. If it stayed the same, I convinced myself I was failing.But do you know what I’ve realised?The scales were the LAST indicator of my progress and the most unreliable.In Part 1, I break down:✨ why women believe progress = scales✨ how we were conditioned into this belief from a young age✨ what the past 7 weeks taught me about slowing down✨ how I avoided the shame spiral that used to derail me✨ why emotional progress shows long before physical progress✨ the real definition of consistency (returning, not perfection)✨ how to separate behaviour from identity✨ why coming back matters more than getting everything rightThis is the episode I wish I had five years ago.If you’re a teacher, a busy woman, or someone who has ever felt defeated by the scale, you’re going to feel seen in this one.🎙️ Part 1 is live now.Part 2 coming next.Listen, save, share and send it to another woman who needs to hear that she is progressing in ways she hasn’t even realised yet.Follow for more support, mindset shifts, and honest conversations.

After my ultramarathon, I found myself six kilos heavier and totally frustrated.Even as a coach, I couldn’t understand why my body wasn’t shifting, until I started working with nutritionist Callum Walker and realised I’d been carrying years of diet-culture programming.In this episode, I share what it’s been like to unlearn everything I thought I knew about “healthy eating,” from the fear of fats to the obsession with carbs and calories.We talk about how low-fat messaging broke women’s metabolism for decades, what high-fat nutrition actually does for hormones, satiety, and energy, and how I’m now rebuilding my approach with science instead of fear.If you’ve ever cut out entire food groups, chased every diet trend, or felt stuck after years of yo-yo dieting, this one’s going to hit home.

I used to think I was either “on track” or “off it.”Either doing everything perfectly, or completely messing it up.Every slip-up felt like failure. Every weekend turned into a write-off.I lived by the bandwagon and I fell off it more times than I can count.But that mentality kept me stuck in all-or-nothing cycles that drained my energy, destroyed my confidence, and made consistency feel impossible.In this episode, I’m sharing exactly how I broke free from that mindset and how you can too.You’ll learn:Why there is no track to fall offWhy the “bandwagon” is keeping you trappedWhat to do when your week falls apartAnd how to create a flexible routine that actually lasts, no restarts, no guiltPlus, I’ll walk you through a practical system I use with my clients to build habits that don’t rely on motivation, mood, or Monday.This episode is your permission to stop starting over and start building something that sticks.
