While we often hear about meditation or exercise to reduce stress, I'm going outside the box here with something that's helped me dramatically - setting clever boundaries. ​​By balancing my cortisol levels (stress hormone) in the ways I chat about in this episode, I've noticed improved sleep, greater energy, and I've even noticed huge changes in my physique.​​ ​ I'll share how tuning into my own needs and setting strict boundaries have been key. From establishing tech-free times and social media detoxes to being selective with the people I surround myself, I've noticed a profound impact on my stress management and overall wellbeing. ​ Join me as I reveal how small boundary-setting practices can lead to healthier cortisol levels and ultimately, a far healthier you. Whether it's scheduling downtime or learning to say no, these tips can help you reclaim some of your peace in your busy life too!   Links: Download my FREE eBook with 4 15 minute meals: click HERE Start your weight loss, gut healing and anti-inflammatory journey now with my 3 Week Body  Reset  Continue your journey and figuring out YOUR own balance in the Health with Bec Tribe Click HERE for all of my favourite, most used products that I've been talking about in recent episodes!

To take the healthy steps required for change, we need motivation. And without the feel-good chemicals in our bodies, it makes it damn hard. I truly believe that happiness is central to growth and change in all areas, including finding and maintaining your balanced weight. I mean... if we don't feel good, we don't want to feel our bodies well, we don't have the motivation to exercise and we don't have the grit to take those steps that we SO WANT TO TAKE. Feeling sad, unmotivated and low unfortunatly can keep you stuck in your comfortable ways, and whilst it's SO normal and we all have our bad days, there are certainly ways they we can try to boost our bodies serotinin (feel good chemicals) to help us have more of the better ones. So, this episode is for you if you're looking to boost your happiness in order to make these healthy changes easier. If you're struggling at the moment, please know that you're not alone. I really hope this podcast helps you!

Simple but effective metabolism-boosters like staying hydrated, coffee, and tea – yes, your favorite drinks can help!

In this episode, I dive deep into a key issue that most conventional diets overlook, which often leads to failure in achieving long-term weight loss success. It's not just about losing weight—it's about keeping it off for good, and that's where most diets fall short, with 85-90% of dieters regaining their lost weight! Today, I explore why this happens and what you can do to avoid it. What You'll Learn: The Alarming Statistics of Diet Failure: I break down research showing that 80-95% of dieters regain the weight they've lost, often within just a few years. If you've lost weight in the past, only to gain it back, you're not alone—and there's a scientific reason behind it. How Calorie Restriction Affects Your Metabolism: Long periods of calorie restriction can slow down your metabolism, making it harder to maintain weight loss. I explain the science behind metabolic adaptation and why your body fights to keep you from losing too much weight too quickly. The Role of Hormones in Weight Loss: Learn how dieting can lead to a drop in your thyroid hormones (affecting metabolism), an increase in cortisol (stress hormone), and changes in hunger hormones (ghrelin and leptin) that make it harder to stay on track. The Importance of Calorie Cycling: I introduce calorie cycling as a powerful strategy to prevent your metabolism from slowing down. I share how incorporating higher calorie “refeed” days can help regulate your metabolism, reduce hunger, and maintain long-term weight loss. Why Strength Training and Protein Are Essential: Discover why eating a high-protein diet and incorporating strength training are critical to keeping your metabolism strong while losing weight. If you've ever struggled with losing weight and keeping it off, this episode will help you understand the science behind why that happens and how you can beat the odds. I've developed my approach to cover all of these factors, and it's worked for thousands of women worldwide. Tune in to learn how to make sustainable, long-term weight loss a reality for you too!   Further podcasts to listen to that I mention: Episode 48: Learn more about the link between cortisol and weight loss, plus my top stress-reducing tips.

00:00 Intro 01:27 The Theme Of This Episode, Including The Woman That Needs To Hear it   02:40 My Personal Experience With The Strategies I Recommend  05:30 The Importance of Deep Reflection  06:40 How To Practice Deep Reflection  08:12 Why Being Selfish Matters  10:50 My Personal Happiness List  15:00 Why You Have to Be The Detective Of Your Own Life  18:55 How Do You Become The Detective Of Your Own Life  20:58 Understanding Your Why  22:10 How I've Been Implementing These Strategies Recently In My Life 28:50 The Biggest Breakthroughs Often Happen After This … 30:20 My personal why and how it fuels me 32:20 The Importance Of Knowing Your Why  33:40 Why Being “Selfish” Is Actually A Good Thing 40:10 Using Reflection To Become Unstuck 41:00 Episode Wrap Up & Motivational Pep Talk   In today's episode, I felt like I had to continue on with the theme of last weeks to help you even more. I'm diving into a topic that's been incredibly important in my own life—deep reflection and how it can help you achieve your goals, whether it's weight loss, fitness, or any other area. I'm sharing my personal journey and how constantly reflecting on my happiness and tweaking my approach has led me to overcome challenges in both my business and health journey. I hope my experiences will help you do the same! What You'll Learn: Reflecting and Tweaking for Success: Over the years, I've learned that taking time to reflect has been key to finding success in my health and business. In this episode, I'm walking you through how you can regularly assess your life and make small changes to keep progressing. The Power of Being "Selfishly Reflective": To show up fully for others and achieve your own goals, you need to carve out time for yourself. I'm sharing how I prioritize "me-time" and how this has not only improved my business but also my mental and physical health. Being selfish with your time is not a bad thing—it's essential! Breaking Down the Process: When I reflect, I focus on two key areas: Happiness and Energy: I talk about the importance of optimizing your daily routines to make sure you're feeling your best, because when you feel good, everything else becomes easier. Problem-Solving: Life isn't without its roadblocks, and we all have moments where things don't go to plan. I explain how I constantly search for solutions and tweak my approach when something isn't working. Self-Awareness and Goal Achievement: One of the biggest lessons I've learned is the power of self-awareness in staying on track. Whether it's your weight loss journey or another life goal, regular reflection is crucial. I share how I make lists to reflect on what makes me happy and what's holding me back. From there, I test new strategies, learn from mistakes, and continue moving forward. Practical Tips for Deep Reflection and Success: Make time for regular reflection—whether it's an hour daily or a half-day on the weekend. Prioritize the habits that make you feel happy and grounded, like exercise, spending time in nature, and connecting with loved ones. If you're stuck, don't be afraid to try something new—whether that's tweaking your diet, speaking to a professional, or reaching out to your support network. Always remember your "why" and remind yourself of the bigger picture behind your goals. Final Thoughts: If there's one thing I've learned, it's that consistent reflection and a willingness to try new things is essential to achieving big goals. Be kind to yourself, focus on your happiness, and remember—small steps add up over time. Success doesn't happen overnight, but with the right mindset and a reflective approach, anything is possible!   Links: Episode 13: Why Motivation is NOT What You're Looking For.

I'm back after taking a much needed break from the podcast! But, I returned from my 3 week trip to Italy and London and felt quite different to how I'd normally feel after travelling... Whilst I felt re-energised from visiting such amazing spots and doing the least amount of work I have EVER done on a holiday, I ended the trip feeling bloated, puffy and heavier. This made it harder for me to feel the same level of motivation that I had for exercise pre the trip. I've also found it so hard to get that creative spark back in me that I usually have (most weeks) for work.  In this episode, I share how and why my eating and drinking habits changed a little bit compared to my usual travels (where I've worked out my healthy balance pretty well & normally return feeling pretty good) and my thoughts on why it's been harder to feel creative for work.  I also offer tips, of course, throughout this podcast on: How to get your motivation and mojo back if you've let any healthy habits slip after a holiday or just a period of zero motivation How to build your healthy habits back up again AND how to ensure they don't fall away again Why it's a GOOD thing to feel crap sometimes from eating foods that you don't normally eat  I think I jump around quite a bit in this epiode because I just had so many thoughts to share, but I really hope that my reflection helps you see that I too am human and the occasional lows in your motivation is normal. I also hope that it encourages you to constanty reflect on WHY you're feeling and acting in certain ways, because without reflection, you can't figure out what changes you need to make in your life! Reaching your goals is ALWAYS about trying new things, failing, getting back up again and learning from past experiences.   00:00 Intro 01:10 Wrap Up Of 2024 Italy Trip + Why This Trip Was Different 03:45 A Vulnerable Share About Why This Episode Was Hard To Record 06:12 Discussing What This Episode Is About & Why It's Important 07:56 Why Didn't I Stay On Track With My Healthy Habits This Trip? 16:43 A Reminder About My Own Personal Health/ Weight Loss Story  24:12 The Main Point Of This Podcast 25:20 How To Rebuild Habits & Regain Motivation 30:30 What I've Been Doing To Get Back Into A Healthy Routine With Food & Exercise 34:58 The Importance Of Maintaining Habits Whilst Away/ On Holidays  39:08 What I Always Encourage You To Do When You Feel ‘Off' After Losing Momentum   Further links & resources: Podcasts where I talk about how I eat when I travel to keep my balance: 158: (Replay) How to indulge with balance and quit the ‘all or nothing mentality' when you go on holidays! 149: Maintaining my eating and fitness balance when I travel (and eat out at every meal) 110: Tips For Eating With Balance When Travelling 80: My Italian Trip (PART 2): Eating with Balance, Maintaining my Weight , Gluten & Food Sensitivities   Download my FREE eBook with 4 15 minute meals: click here Start your weight loss, gut healing and anti-inflammatory journey now with my 3 Week Body  Reset  Continue your journey and figuring out YOUR own balance in the Health with Bec Tribe  Explore my recipe eBooks: Click here!  Follow me on instagram: @health_with_bec Visit my website: Click here

Unable to take those daily steps that you KNOW you want to take to get closer to that goal?

The way you live out every day of your life, the choices you make, the boundaries you set, the priorities you make, your mindset… it's all up to you. And, they can either keep you stuck and constantly thinking “why am I not achieving what I want?” OR propel you forward, slowly, day after day to get you to the goal you've set or the dreams that you have for yourself. So, in todays episode, I'm sharing 5 lifestyle choices and mindsets that keep you stuck and HOW to flip them on their head so that you CAN feel more motivated and inspired to take aligned action and take those steps that bring you towards your goal - whether it be weight loss, fitness or your career.

What they DO have is commitment to tweaking their lifestyle and mindset daily to work FOR them and not against them so that they can get through the growing pains that are inevitable with change.

After just returning from a quick holiday in Bali, so many of you were curious about how I eat when I'm there. And, how I prevent that ‘all or nothing' mentality that I used to absolutely experience for years until I found my balance. Because I went to Bali twice last year (in 2023) and recorded a podcast allll about how I eat with balance after one of the trips, it felt silly to re-record one and repeat everything! So, I want to share the replay of the episode with you today. It IS possible to indulge and enjoy yourself when you travel without feeling like you've gone 10 steps backwards with your health when you return home.   Links: Download my FREE eBook with 4 15 minute meals: click here Start your weight loss, gut healing and anti-inflammatory journey now with my 3 Week Body Reset Continue your journey and figuring out YOUR own balance in the Health with Bec Tribe Explore my free recipes & website: Click here  Follow me on instagram: @health_with_bec    

In this episode, I have Elisha Casagrande join me to talk very openly and vulnerably about her alcohol reduction journey after the diagnosis of her husbands cancer.   Elisha is a PT and Health & Style Coach who loves empowering women to look as good as they feel. She has also recently joined my team, after being been a member inside my membership, the Health With Bec Tribe since the very beginning, 4 years ago, and lives and breathes the Health With Bec life.   Despite her being extremely healthy, she shares how the birth of her two children sparked anxiety which lead to having a drink every night, and then how her husbands sudden diagnosis of cancer 6 years ago, when the kids were only 2 and 5, lead to her alcohol habit increasing immensely. But, she overcame it in about 12 months, using strategies that she very openly shares and now manages her alcohol in a very balanced way.   Her story to overcoming the habit of her nightly excessive drinking is extremely inspiring and I know it will help anyone who is looking to reduce their alcohol consumption or break any habit that may not be serving you!   It's also an honest story to normalise the challenges in life and how sometimes, even the healthiest people go through challenges and stages where one art of their healthy habits falls to the side - despite how healthy or put together they seem from the outside.   I hope you enjoy our chat as much as I did!

Do I believe in morning routines? Not strict ones to be honest, I'll explain why in this episode. But, I do try to do these things (or at least most of them) nearly every single work morning. To reach our goals, we know that we need to stick to our intentions that we set for the day - and the happier and more motivated we feel, the EASIER it is to do what we KNOW we need to do. Setting your morning up correctly can seriously help here. If I miss one of these things, I often feel it trickle into my day and it leads me to feel anxious and unfocussed. I hope you enjoy this episode and consider bringing these things into your morning too, they are honestly achievable in some small way for EVERYONE!

With all the noise out there surrounding weight loss and health, it can be easy to forget the MAIN principles and the most effective ways to lose weight that actually work and are proven by science time and time again.
