Hey guys, 23 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: and welcome back to the Rise and Conquer podcast. I've 24 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: got a quick little solo episode for you today, and 25 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 1: I am chatting how to stay fit and healthy and 26 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 1: motivated during IO. So this has come about because I've 27 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: had quite a few dms asking this specific question, and 28 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: usually women just kind of chatting to me and explaining 29 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 1: that they're really struggling. During this time, they felt like 30 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: they were really in flow and they had a good 31 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:13,080 Speaker 1: thing going and then you know, COVID nineteen happened and 32 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 1: they've just been really unmotivated and don't want to work 33 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 1: out and have been binge eating and eating the whole 34 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:22,079 Speaker 1: cupboard and all that sort of thing. So I really 35 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: want to chat about this because if you guys, well 36 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: I think most of you will know it, but if 37 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: you guys don't know, I really struggled previously. I was 38 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 1: never diagnosed, but I definitely had eating disordered tendencies and yeah, 39 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: I don't know, like I definitely went through some stuff 40 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 1: in my younger years where I had heaps of disordered 41 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: sort of patterns and ways that I dealt with life, 42 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,919 Speaker 1: and I was very obsessed with how I looked and 43 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: just weighing less in general. And so this is definitely 44 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 1: a topic I'm super passionate about, and that's why I 45 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 1: created my ebook, Find Your Healthy, A Beginner's Guide to 46 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 1: Intuitive Eating plus Healthy Living Recipes, which is all about 47 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: kind of my transition from being super obsessed with how 48 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:20,959 Speaker 1: I looked and what I ate and really quite unhappy 49 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:26,639 Speaker 1: and stuck in life too, transitioning into intuitive eating. And 50 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 1: that's where I really kind of felt like I started 51 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 1: to see lots of personal growth, business growth, financial growth, 52 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: like literally growth in every aspect of my life because 53 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: I wasn't so focused on how I looked and what 54 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: I was eating. So I'm super passionate about it. So 55 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: I just wanted to riff on this. I just have 56 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: some tips and I just want to have a little chat, 57 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: So let's get straight into it. So my first tip 58 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: is just realizing that whatever you were feeling and however 59 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: you were acting responding to what is happening right now 60 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: is just so okay. I was actually chatting to my 61 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: girlfriend Rachelle Fox about this. The other night we had 62 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: a zoom chat. I had a wine, I was sitting 63 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: in the bath, and she was saying, because I was 64 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: explaining to her that I just felt very tired and 65 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: very drained, very exhausted. And I have been I think 66 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 1: I've said this before on the podcast, but I've been 67 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,600 Speaker 1: on a bit of like an emotional rollercoaster where I'm 68 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: like one day, I'm like, oh my god, I'm so fine, 69 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: this is all good, you know, it's this is a positive, 70 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 1: I can see the positive. And then the next day 71 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: I'm like a bit of a train wreck and super 72 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 1: anxious just about all the uncertainty. And so we're chatting 73 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 1: about that, and she was just explaining that as a 74 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: collective consciousness right now, we would all be feeling so 75 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: much uncertainty and just like not knowing how to deal 76 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: with this situation, because as humans, the way that we 77 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,160 Speaker 1: deal with things is we think back to when this 78 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: has previously happened and how we dealt with that or 79 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,159 Speaker 1: how other people have dealt with that, and that's usually 80 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: how we deal with things like that's called like a 81 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,719 Speaker 1: pattern or a habit. And she was saying, you know, 82 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 1: this is literally never happened in history, really in this 83 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,679 Speaker 1: day and age. So we're all kind of struggling because 84 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 1: it's like how do I even feel? How do I 85 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,919 Speaker 1: even act? So I wanted to kind of jump on 86 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: here and like validate however you were feeling. It is 87 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 1: just so okay. Like if you're someone who's like this 88 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: hasn't even really affected them, you're not too bothered, You're 89 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: just staying home and it's not a big deal, like awesome, 90 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 1: don't feel guilty because you're not like overly emotional or 91 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: overly sad. But if you're like in the opposite kind 92 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 1: of spectrum, if you're like, really, this is affecting you, 93 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 1: And like I think me personally, I've been super harsh 94 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: on myself and I'm like, Georgia, this really isn't that 95 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: different to how you usually live your life, Like snap 96 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 1: out of it. Why is this affecting you so much? 97 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 1: And I've been quite harsh on myself, and so I've 98 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:01,919 Speaker 1: kind of had to take that back and being like, 99 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: you know, we're all dealing with this in a different way. 100 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: However we're dealing with it, it is okay, and just 101 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: have like lots of grace with yourself. I just like 102 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: cannot stress that enough. Okay, So first of all, just 103 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: giving yourself grace and realizing however you are acting, so 104 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: whether that is you're not really interested in working out 105 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 1: or eating healthy or all that sort of thing. Like 106 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: I think the first step is just like accepting that 107 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: is how you're reacting to the current situation and it 108 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 1: is okay, all right, So I want to go onto 109 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 1: the next sort of tip and point and as you guys, 110 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 1: and what I kind of previously said, like I practice 111 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: intuitive living and eating. So basically this means I listen 112 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 1: to my bodies bio feedback and act accordingly. So you know, 113 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 1: if I'm like, for example, if I'm on my period, 114 00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 1: I know I need to eat more food because because 115 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,599 Speaker 1: I really struggle with energy and I need to slow down. 116 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 1: And that's kind of how I've been feeling the last 117 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 1: couple of weeks because I was on my period and 118 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: then just like I was really feeling it, and so 119 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: I will do that. So instead of and the way 120 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: I can kind of explain this, like you know, when 121 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: you get eating plan or you know, a workout schedule 122 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: or something from a PT or a dietitian or something 123 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: like that, and you're like you're following it along, but 124 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: you just like you don't feel like doing that, Like 125 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,239 Speaker 1: you're having an off week, but you're trying to push 126 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: through and you're really like it feels like a slog. Basically, 127 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 1: how I live my life is I used to do that, 128 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: and I don't do that anymore. So I really listen 129 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: to my body. So if I am overly tired, I 130 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 1: really like make sure I'm eating extra carbs because guys, 131 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: carbs is energy. So if we're tired, like it's like 132 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 1: our body being like, holy crap, I'm really struggling. I 133 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 1: need energy. So I'm making sure I'm eating a good 134 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: amount of cards every single meal. I'm making sure I'm 135 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 1: getting enough sleep. I am like chilling out on the workouts, 136 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: maybe doing less intense on so or swapping it out 137 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: for a walk, like kind of you know when you 138 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: have like a certain workout planned or something planned for 139 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: that day and then you get a really bad, restless night, 140 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: and half of you is like, oh my god, just 141 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: push through do it. The other half of you is like, 142 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: oh my god, don't do this. So I really live 143 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: my life intuitively and listen to my body. Because previously, 144 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 1: like I said, I was at total war with my 145 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 1: body and I didn't listen to it and I just 146 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 1: like basically put it through hell and it pushed right 147 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: back against me. And it was like such a struggle, 148 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 1: just like everyday life dealing with cravings or dealing with uh, 149 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: you know, like just feeling like you're totally going against 150 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 1: your body. I personally think when you work with your body, 151 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: not against it, everything feels easier. And just because it's 152 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 1: not specifically what you wanted to do or what you 153 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: see others doing, like that is okay. So at the moment, 154 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 1: like if you are not motivated and you're just like 155 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 1: not interested in working out, maybe this is a great 156 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 1: time to have like a movement break where you swap 157 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: out your workouts, you maybe do a long walk, listen 158 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 1: to a podcast, and that's it, and that's you. Like 159 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: I know you'll see at the moment, and this is 160 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: like I'm included in this. Like you'll see lots of 161 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 1: people posting workouts and like what they eat in a 162 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 1: day and all this sort of stuff, But that doesn't 163 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: mean that you have to do that. So I very 164 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: much believe in intuitive living and eating, and I think 165 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: it's also about being curious and really listening to your 166 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 1: body and being like, Okay, what is it trying to 167 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: tell me? Being curious and don't judge what is happening, 168 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 1: so like, are you extra tired or you know, how 169 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: are you feeling motivational wise? And just being curious and yeah, 170 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 1: not judging and going with that. Like I said, I 171 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: started intuitive eating a couple of years back. So for me, 172 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: intuitive eating and living just feel so like it doesn't 173 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 1: feel hard, It feels so second nature. But if you're 174 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 1: someone who hasn't experienced that, like I highly recommend do 175 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 1: some reading. There's so many good books on it. Like 176 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: I said, I have an ebook on it which is 177 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 1: a really good beginner's guide of how I transition. But 178 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 1: there are so many good books and even free resources. 179 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 1: On a podcast I would like really dive into that. 180 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,119 Speaker 1: This episode is brought to you by Naked Harvest Supplements. 181 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: I'm sure most of you know who Naked Harvest is, 182 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 1: but if you are new here, Naked Harvest is the 183 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 1: all natural supplement company I co founded with my brother. 184 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: Naked Harvest started because I personally had a really bad 185 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: experience where I found out a supplement that I was 186 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: taking had ingredients that were not disclosed on the label, 187 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 1: and even though it said it was natural, it wasn't. 188 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 1: As someone who is so conscious about what I put 189 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 1: in my body because of previous health issues, this made 190 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 1: me so upset. So I teamed up with my big 191 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: brother Cooper, who is also very health conscious. He is 192 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 1: gluten free and dairy intolerant, and we built from the 193 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 1: ground up a company that really cares about what we 194 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: put in our supplements.

All right, guys, let's get 209 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 1: straight back into the episode. Okay, So my next tip 210 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 1: I want to get into is realizing that habits and 211 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 1: routines are everything. So this is a little bit hard because, 212 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 1: like just at my previous tip, I spoke about intuitive eating, 213 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: which is all about like just listening to your body. 214 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:28,079 Speaker 1: But in saying that, I am someone who does have 215 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 1: habits and routines, and I personally find like when motivation fails, 216 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 1: I rely on my habits. So for example, I don't 217 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: find it really hard to get into a headspace to 218 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 1: work out, like I never even and I know a 219 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,560 Speaker 1: lot of people have this because I've been in discussions 220 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 1: with them. Like I know people will be like, oh, 221 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: should I work out today? Shouldn't I I don't really 222 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: feel like it, Oh, but I should just do it? 223 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: Like I don't even that doesn't even go through my head. 224 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,079 Speaker 1: I just work out like if I have the energy 225 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: and I feel like it. If I have the energy 226 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: and it's like you know, I'm supposed to work out 227 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: that day, I will just work out. Like I never 228 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 1: even have that conversation in my head because I have 229 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: just made it so habit, and I think our habits 230 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 1: and routines really establish who we are. So it's hard though, 231 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: because it's like you do want to be listening to 232 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,959 Speaker 1: your body, but you kind of need to know when 233 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: you're bullshitting yourself, if that makes sense. So it's kind 234 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: of this constant dance between like, yeah, listening to your body, 235 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 1: see how you feel. But it's like I feel like 236 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: sometimes we can talk ourselves into like, oh no, I 237 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: just really shouldn't do this. I'm really not feel like 238 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 1: working out, whereas we should really just work out. And 239 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 1: like I said, big believe in making a habit out 240 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 1: of things. So I am someone where I have just 241 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 1: made it a habit that I work out at the 242 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 1: same time every single day. So I work out around 243 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,439 Speaker 1: seven o'clock, and it's just so my morning routine is 244 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 1: such habit, like everything I do is like in order, 245 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: and I've just made it like that because basically it 246 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 1: throughout a day, like we have all these decisions we 247 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,719 Speaker 1: have to make, Like we have to decide so many things, 248 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 1: and I think it's called something like there's this actual 249 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: theory where it's called decision fatigue and you get to 250 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 1: a point where you just like you've made too many decisions. 251 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: So if you have habits and you don't even have 252 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 1: to make the decision, it's just like habit and you 253 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 1: know that that's what you're doing, you'll have a lot 254 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 1: more kind of like discipline and decision making left throughout 255 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: the day, if that makes sense. The next tip I 256 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 1: want to kind of riff on is I really want 257 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 1: to chat about restriction. So I used to be so 258 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: restrictive in regards to what I ate, when I ate, 259 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 1: how much I ate, Like it was just it was 260 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: bad guys. Like I said, I definitely had disordered sort 261 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 1: of eating patterns. And to be honest, like looking back, 262 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 1: because I was so focused on restricting my food, making 263 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: sure I didn't eat too much, or you know, making 264 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: sure I ate at specific times and just very focused, 265 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 1: I did not have a lot of brain capacity for 266 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: other things. Like everything kind of felt a bit hard. 267 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 1: And I was studying law at this time. I remember 268 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 1: it just like everything felt super hard. And so what 269 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: we don't really realize is like when we're restricting food, 270 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 1: our body thinks we're going into starvation mode. And your 271 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: body loves you, it wants to keep you alive. So 272 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 1: basically it will do everything it can to not die, 273 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: of course, and so you will find if you're restricting, 274 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: you will have these like crazy cravings and these lack 275 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 1: you know, you just want to eat the whole whole 276 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 1: cupboard and all these sorts of things, and it's basically 277 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 1: your body pushing against you, fighting against you, like I 278 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 1: was saying about working with your body, and so I 279 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: think it's really unhelpful to be restrictive with food. And 280 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 1: then especially at a time like this when there's just 281 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 1: like so much going on, I really think the last 282 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: thing we need is to be like in fight with 283 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: our body and like just constantly thinking about what food 284 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 1: we're eating and trying to restrict and not eating too much. 285 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 1: I just I don't know, you guys, like I just 286 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 1: don't think it's really helpful at the moment because we 287 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 1: are dealing with so much, and so I think it's 288 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: a great time to maybe look into your heat eating habits. 289 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 1: And it's like if you were someone who's like constantly 290 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 1: thinking about your next meal, constantly feeling hungry, or just 291 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: like wanting to look for food, constantly looking for snacks, 292 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: Like for example, I used to be this person who 293 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 1: you like had at least three snacks a day, whereas 294 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 1: now I maybe have a snack in the afternoon at 295 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 1: three pm. That's kind of my only one Otherwise, like 296 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,720 Speaker 1: I just don't really snack, and that's because my main 297 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 1: meals are big enough that I am full. And that's 298 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,439 Speaker 1: another thing I was actually thinking the other day, like 299 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:22,960 Speaker 1: the amount of times that I would go to bed hungry, 300 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: because that's what I thought you had to do. And 301 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: I remember I would just want to go to sleep 302 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: because I was so like not so hungry, but I 303 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 1: was hungry, and I knew if I stayed awake, I 304 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:34,679 Speaker 1: would just like go to the cupboard. So I just 305 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 1: go to sleep. And like, I can't remember the last 306 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: time I have gone to bed even slightly hungry. Like 307 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: that's just not even a thing for me, because especially 308 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,119 Speaker 1: when we're about to go to sleep for like eight hours, 309 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:51,639 Speaker 1: your body needs food and energy to like process and 310 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 1: fix your body and make everything good for the next day. 311 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 1: And so I think you, like now is kind of 312 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,640 Speaker 1: a great time to just to even be a little 313 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 1: bit curious about your eating habits and look into it 314 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,879 Speaker 1: and just think, am I being too restrictive for my food. 315 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 1: I really saw a change in my eating habits when 316 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: I stop being so restrictive and literally when I stopped 317 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: dieting and being so obsessed with food, I stopped binge eating, 318 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: I stopped snacking so much. I just stopped thinking about food. 319 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 1: Like I didn't realize back then, but it like it's 320 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: not actually normal just to like be thinking about food 321 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 1: all the time at all. That's something that your body 322 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: does to you when you're not eating enough. So big 323 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 1: big tip is like not to be restrictive and really 324 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 1: be like looking at eating patterns and then even just 325 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 1: to realize that maybe you need a different focus if 326 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,119 Speaker 1: you were really focused on this at the moment. So 327 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 1: a big thing one of the steps in intuitive eating 328 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 1: is like just getting other interests outside food and working 329 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 1: out and how your body looks. Like a big thing 330 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 1: that I did was like I unfollowed a lot of 331 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 1: people on Instagram who really made me feel like that's 332 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:10,119 Speaker 1: what I had to think about all the time. I 333 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 1: started following other counts that just like weren't about that, 334 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:17,719 Speaker 1: like you know, like interior design or personal development, and 335 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 1: I just really dived into that because it was so 336 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: helpful for me to stop being restrictive and stop being 337 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 1: so focused, and that kind of leads me on to 338 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 1: my last point, which is kind of don't underestimate our 339 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 1: mental health and like the other things that go are along. 340 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: So I'm not gonna lie. I kind of tricked you 341 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: into clicking on this episode with the title you Know 342 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 1: how I'm Staying Fit and Healthier Motivated because I know 343 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 1: a lot of people who are struggling with these issues 344 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: would click on that sort of episode. Like, to be honest, 345 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 1: like when I personally listen to podcasts, I don't really 346 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 1: listen anything do with this sort of stuff. Like when 347 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,959 Speaker 1: I listen to podcasts, I'm either listening to something like 348 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 1: personal development or business because food just and how I 349 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 1: look and healthy and all that sort of thing is 350 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 1: just not a focus because like I know the basics. 351 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:17,719 Speaker 1: I know how my body feels now, I know how 352 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 1: my body works, and it's like it's all good. I 353 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,880 Speaker 1: don't need to keep focusing on this thing. And it's 354 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: like that whole quote of you know, you can go 355 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 1: to gym, you can eat healthy, you can do yoga, 356 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: you can drink water, you can take your vitamins, you 357 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:33,199 Speaker 1: can go on holidays. But if you don't deal with 358 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:37,440 Speaker 1: the negativity in your thoughts, in your hearts, in your heart, sorry, 359 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,640 Speaker 1: and deal with your mental health, like you'll never be healthy. 360 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: And so I know, like if you are someone and 361 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,400 Speaker 1: you are like, oh my god, I'm being jeating, I'm 362 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 1: not motivated, I'm not working out and that sort of thing, 363 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,399 Speaker 1: this actually might be like this could be a sign 364 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: even if you are listening to this episode and you're 365 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 1: struggling with these things, like this is totally a sign 366 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: that maybe now is a really good time to shift 367 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 1: your focus and stop playing small. So this is something 368 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 1: that I kind of speak about and I didn't realize 369 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: back to then, but now looking back to like my 370 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 1: diet days and when I was really restrictive and really focus, 371 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 1: like I was ten kilos lighter one hundred percent, like 372 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: I was quite tiny when I was like at my 373 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 1: point of being like you know, I had dieted the most. 374 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:31,640 Speaker 1: And that's the thing, guys, like diet do work, like 375 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: you will lose weight, but for a very limited time, 376 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:39,160 Speaker 1: like you will, and I did too, Like you put 377 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:42,159 Speaker 1: the weight back on because it's like your body doesn't 378 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 1: want you to lose that weight because that is like 379 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: your body doesn't want that for you, especially if you're 380 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 1: not supposed to be you know, that weight, because we 381 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 1: will kind of have our set points of what our 382 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,879 Speaker 1: body likes being. And so basically, like I said, like 383 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,439 Speaker 1: your body will do anything to keep your life. And 384 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: what I found is back then, because I was focusing 385 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: so much on dieting and restricting, I had no capacity, 386 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:13,639 Speaker 1: no brain capacity for anything else. So I, like to 387 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 1: be honest, back then it's almost like kind of a blurb, 388 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 1: but like I was just scraping through with UNI, which 389 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 1: like I am such like a studious and like I'm 390 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:26,200 Speaker 1: very intelligent, Like I can say that to you guys, 391 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 1: and like before the whole thing, like I was doing 392 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: so excellent in UNI, and after I did excellent, But 393 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,879 Speaker 1: during this time, like I was just scraping by Marx 394 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:39,159 Speaker 1: wise because like I just didn't have the brain capacity 395 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 1: to put into my assessments to really like learn and listen. 396 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 1: I remember I had a lot of issues in regards 397 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:50,400 Speaker 1: to I would feel so guilty. I would like cancel 398 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,199 Speaker 1: plans on people because I just like didn't want to 399 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,879 Speaker 1: like have to go out to a restaurant and I 400 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: don't know, like it really consumed me, it really kept 401 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 1: me more, and I would be constantly yoyoing. I would 402 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:07,919 Speaker 1: be like I'd lose five kilos and I'd put it 403 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: back on, and then I would lose it and I'd 404 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:11,919 Speaker 1: put it back on, and then that was like just 405 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: a brain fuck in itself. And like fast forward. Now 406 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 1: I am definitely like I eat whatever I want when 407 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 1: I want. I intuitively eat. I work out because I 408 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 1: love the feeling I get after. I love the way 409 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,679 Speaker 1: it makes me feel. And it doesn't feel hard. It 410 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 1: feels so easy, it feels so natural. I literally don't 411 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,120 Speaker 1: even have to think about like I don't schedule meals, 412 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 1: I don't have to think about what I'm eating or 413 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:43,680 Speaker 1: anything like that. Like I just do it. And I'm like, 414 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 1: I haven't really shifted weight in a long time. I'm 415 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: kind of just like at this weight, I can kind 416 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: of eat whatever I want and have my treat meals 417 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 1: and all that sort of thing. And like food, it's 418 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: not that food has lost its appeal because like I'm 419 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 1: such a foodie, Like I love my food, I love 420 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 1: specific food. But just you know, back then, I could 421 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: literally go off on a day dream on like oh 422 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,879 Speaker 1: my god, brownies and cookie doughs and ice cream, and 423 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,199 Speaker 1: I would literally be like throfting. Like I used to 424 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: watch a lot of food porn. It was weird and 425 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 1: like just like people making food, not actual porn, And 426 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:24,879 Speaker 1: now like it's just like not a thought and I 427 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,399 Speaker 1: just like don't really care. I like have my food 428 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: and I like the way it tastes. But it's like 429 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: if I leave it as that, and then I have 430 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 1: just so much more room for other stuff like personal 431 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:39,679 Speaker 1: development and business. Like when I look at my life 432 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 1: and I'll keep going back to this, but like back then, 433 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 1: I didn't have any room to think about you know, 434 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 1: me and my brother created this business Naked Harvest. I 435 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 1: have this podcast business, Like I have all these extra things, 436 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,400 Speaker 1: and I am like I didn't even know who I 437 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 1: was because I just did not have any sort of 438 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 1: capacity to explore that I was so like it just 439 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 1: kept me so small. And like now I absolutely love 440 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 1: the person I am, Like I can one hundred percent 441 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 1: say to you, I love the person I've turned into. 442 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 1: I love that I'm interested in different things and you know, 443 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 1: health and fitness. It just feels so easy in second 444 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: nature and I love it, but it doesn't control my 445 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 1: life guys, And I think that's a big thing, is 446 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: like maybe reflect and if you're someone and it's like 447 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 1: really controlling you, that it might be time to shift 448 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 1: try something new. Like I said, highly recommend intuitive eating 449 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,159 Speaker 1: actually like a big thing for me mental health wise. 450 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 1: Like now, like I've spoken about this before, but I 451 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,440 Speaker 1: see a therapist. I've seen her for nearly a year, 452 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 1: and she's amazing. I journal every single day, I meditate 453 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: every single day, I check in with myself. I really 454 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:00,439 Speaker 1: really like the person I am, and I'm really happy 455 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 1: with my mental health space, Whereas I look at before 456 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:07,639 Speaker 1: and I was like trapped in this loop where I 457 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 1: was so mean to myself and I was so harsh 458 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,959 Speaker 1: on myself and I felt guilty all the time, and 459 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 1: it was just gross. It was just like not a 460 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 1: fun place. And I really feel for anyone going through 461 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 1: that because it's so it's just so hard. Yeah, So 462 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: I just wanted to really kind of touch on the 463 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 1: point of like health, you know, staying fit, healthy and motivated, 464 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:35,400 Speaker 1: Like health is more just what we eat and how 465 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 1: we work out, Like it is so much more. And 466 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 1: that's another big thing, is like maybe if you're not 467 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 1: motivated to work out, you're not feeling like you don't 468 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: have the energy, this might be a great time to 469 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 1: like see what else you're interested in, Like do you 470 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 1: like a certain hobby or I don't know, Like I 471 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 1: hope you get what I'm saying, But I just really 472 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 1: wanted to like riff on that because, like I said, 473 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: I'm super passionate about it because it was a huge 474 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 1: chunk of my life that looking back, it was a 475 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 1: huge waste of time, to be honest, Like, I look 476 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,120 Speaker 1: back and I will never get that time back. And 477 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: I don't like to say I have regrets because it 478 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,199 Speaker 1: has made me the person I am. But I'm just 479 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 1: so glad I got out of that headspace and I 480 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,400 Speaker 1: stopped being so restrictive and got out of diet culture 481 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: and that whole diet loop because it just kept me 482 00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 1: so small and yeah, just not interested in that person. 483 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: And I'm just like loving life as I am now, 484 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: if that makes sense, But that's kind of it. That's 485 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 1: what I wanted to focus on today and just have 486 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 1: a chat about that because I've had so many recommendations 487 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 1: asking to speak about this, and I don't think it's 488 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:47,960 Speaker 1: like what you think I would say, Like it's not like, oh, 489 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: you know a tip on you should eat this and 490 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 1: that and do this and that.

And 492 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 1: that's another thing too, is like how I eat and 493 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 1: how I train is so specific to me and what 494 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 1: feels good to me. You shouldn't try and copy other people. 495 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 1: You should try and find out what works for you. Yeah, 496 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 1: that's why I'm gonna leave it as that. I just 497 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: wanted this to be like a quick little episode.
