  • The ONE mindset hack to stop self-sabotaging
    If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right… eating better, moving more, staying mindful, but somehow always end up back at square one… this episode is going to be a game-changer.Today I’m diving into a mindset hack that has helped so many of my clients (and myself!) break free from the exhausting self-sabotage cycle. Spoiler alert: this has nothing to do with willpower or discipline, and everything to do with how your brain is wired to protect you.You’ll learn: ✨ Why self-sabotage has nothing to do with your willpower or consistency ✨ The real reason your brain pulls you back into old patterns ✨ What cognitive dissonance is (and how it quietly keeps you stuck) ✨ The one mindset shift that will finally help you align your thoughts, beliefs, and actionsThe thing is that you don’t have a discipline problem, you have a belief problem. You’re trying to create new habits with an old identity, and your brain’s job is to keep you safe, not successful.Once you understand how to work with your brain (not against it), everything starts to change. You’ll stop sabotaging your progress and finally start living in alignment with the woman you want to become confident, consistent, and completely at peace around food.Because here’s the secret: you don’t need another meal plan. You need to align your mindset with your habits and build both together. That’s how long-term transformation really happens 💫If this episode hit home and you’re ready to stop self-sabotaging and finally see sustainable results, I’d love to support you personally.Links & Resources:Apply for coaching: HEREFollow Angela on Instagram: HERE

  • 5 things I quit to lose 11kg (and I wish I had done It sooner)
    If weight loss has ever felt hard, exhausting, or like something you just can’t seem to get right… this episode is for you. I’m opening up about the five key things I quit that helped me lose 11 kilos and, most importantly, keep it off for good.In this episode, I share my personal journey… from being stuck in cycles of yo-yo dieting, restriction, and guilt… to finally feeling free, confident, and in control of my health without obsessing over every calorie or spending hours in the gym.These five things weren’t just habits… they were beliefs that kept me stuck. Beliefs like “more control equals more success,” or “I have to earn my food.” When I finally let them go, everything became easier — not because I suddenly became more disciplined, but because I started working with my body instead of against it.Here’s what I cover in this episode:- Why quitting calorie tracking was the best decision I ever made for my mental and physical health- How I stopped obsessing over “perfect” clean eating and started trusting myself around food again- The role of social environments in your success — and why outgrowing certain people can be part of your transformation- How changing my approach to exercise made my results effortless- The mindset shifts that helped me finally feel at peace with food and my bodyIf you’ve been stuck in a cycle of starting over every Monday, or you’ve felt like maybe you’re “broken” because you can’t stay consistent, please know that you’re not. You’re just following patterns that don’t work long term. And the good news? You can absolutely change that.This episode will help you gain awareness of what’s been holding you back and give you the tools to start creating sustainable results that feel easy, realistic, and aligned with your life.🎧 Tune in now and let’s break free from the old diet rules — for good.Links & Resources:Apply for coaching: HEREFollow Angela on Instagram: HERE

  • 5 reasons you're eating "fairly healthy" but can't lose weight
    In today’s episode, I’m diving into a topic that I know so many of you will relate to you’re eating healthy, doing all the “right” things… but the scale just won’t move.You’re having salads, smoothies, whole foods, avocado, nuts, avoiding sugar and takeout, yet nothing’s changing. You’re not alone, and today I’m unpacking why “eating healthy” doesn’t always mean eating for fat loss and the five biggest reasons why your hard work might not be paying off.Here’s what we cover:1. Your portions are off. Healthy foods like avocado, nuts, olive oil, and smoothies are nutrient-dense but also calorie-dense. I’ll explain how to find your “sweet spot”... eating enough to feel full and satisfied without overeating, even if it’s healthy food.2. Your weekends are unstructured. You might be on track during the week, but if Friday through Sunday becomes a free-for-all, it can undo your weekday efforts. I’ll show you how to enjoy your weekends without sabotaging progress.3. Your blood sugar is on a rollercoaster. If you start your day with coffee and a banana and skip meals, your blood sugar will spike and crash, leading to cravings, low energy, and overeating later in the day. You’ll learn how to build balanced meals that keep you full for hours and keep cravings at bay.4. You’re picking and grazing all day. A handful of nuts here, a bite of chocolate there, it all adds up! I’ll share how to break the grazing habit and bring structure back to your day so you can eat mindfully and feel satisfied after your meals.5. You’re simply inconsistent. This one’s tough love, but true. Many women are “on” during the week and “off” on the weekends. It’s not about being perfect; it’s about being consistent with a plan that’s simple, flexible, and realistic so it fits into your life.At the end of the episode, I share how you can start eating for fat loss without tracking calories, following low-carb diets, or restricting yourself. Because healthy eating and eating for fat loss are not the same, but when you combine them strategically, that’s where the magic happens.If you’ve been eating well but not seeing results, this episode will help you finally understand why and what to do next to see real, sustainable progress.✨ Remember: You’re not broken. You just need a new strategy.Links & Resources:Apply for coaching: HEREFollow Angela on Instagram: HERE

  • Redefining weight loss: from perfectionism to progress

And I see it every week in the women I coach—brilliant, high-achieving women who stay stuck in “all-or-nothing” thinking. Perfectionism feels like it’s helping you, but in reality, it’s keeping you from making progress.In today’s episode, I’m breaking down how perfectionism sneaks into your weight loss journey, why it leads to procrastination and starting over (again and again), and how you can finally shift to a mindset of progress over perfection.Here’s what you’ll hear:✨ Why weight loss doesn’t require perfection… it requires consistency✨ The sneaky ways perfectionism shows up in your journey✨ How the “starting over on Monday” cycle delays your results✨ The four mindset shifts that will free you from perfectionism:I’m not on a diet, I’m building a lifestyleSetbacks are normal and expectedFlexibility beats rigidity every timeWhy aiming for “B minus work” will get you further than striving for A+This is about ditching the pressure to get it “perfect” and finally building the lifestyle that helps you lose weight and keep it off, for good.💡 Remember: done is better than perfect, and slow, steady, imperfect progress is what actually gets results.Links & Resources:Apply for coaching: HEREFollow Angela on Instagram: HERE
