• Overcoming Challenges With Anita Hynes

  In this deeply moving and inspiring episode, I sit down with Anita Hynes, my Mum, to talk about the past 10 months of her life — navigating a cancer diagnosis, and rediscovering her own strength.Anita shares how her healthy lifestyle became an anchor through the hardest season of her life, helping her fill the void of losing her femininity and giving her purpose when things felt uncertain. We dive into her bodybuilding journey, the first thing she truly did for herself since becoming a mother, and how that decision changed the way she faced her diagnosis.We also explore:→ Learning from mistakes and the importance of finding your limits through experience.→ How to handle others’ opinions or advice (even when well-intentioned).→ Why everyone’s journey looks different — and how to draw inspiration from others’ resilience, even when their story isn’t the same as yours.→ How cancer, though devastating, has also given Anita more than it’s taken — helping her see what really matters, reconnect with her late father, and cherish her family more deeply.→ Why the habits you build on ordinary days shape how you respond when life throws challenges your way.Anita’s message is one of honesty, hope, and perspective: it’s okay to feel all the emotions that come with hardship — what matters most is what you choose to do with that pain.💌 If you’re going through your own challenge right now, or this episode resonated with you, I’d love to hear from you — send me a DM on my Instagram or leave a comment and share what hit home most.You can also find both Anita and I inside The Encompass Movement, our female-specific training program subscription, designed to help women build strength, confidence, and capability through every season of life.And of course — don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss a juicy episode!

• Protein Powders 101

  “What’s the best protein powder?”It’s one of the most common questions I get asked as a nutritionist — and no wonder! Walk into any supplement store (or even the supermarket) and you’ll find shelves full of tubs, bags, and bottles all promising amazing results. But with so many options (whey, casein, plant-based, collagen, protein water… the list goes on), it can feel overwhelming to know which one is actually worth it.Here’s the truth: most women aren’t getting enough protein in their day. The sweet spot? Around 1.6–2.2g per kg of bodyweight. Wholefoods should always be your foundation, but protein powders can be a super convenient, versatile way to bump your intake up so you’re hitting those targets consistently.In this episode, I break down:→ When to consider using a protein powder→ What to look for on an ingredient label so you’re not tricked by marketing→ The pros and cons of ALL the different types: whey, casein, plant-based, egg white, collagen, amino acids/protein waters and more→ My summary of what’s “best” depending on your goals→ The brands I personally use and recommend (see my discount codes at the bottom)By the end of this episode, you’ll feel confident knowing whether protein powder should have a spot in your pantry, and which one is right for you.💌 Got a question, comment, or supplement you want me to cover next? Send me a DM — I’d love to hear from you.Chief Nutrition 10% off link: https://www.wearechief.com/JAYMEE67991I personally love their chocolate collagen protein powder (for protein hot chocolates or chocolate smoothies) and they also have the best protein bars on this earth IMO.Protein Supplies Australia 10% off code: ENCOMPASS10I use their vanilla collagen peptides, which is amazing in fruit smoothies & healthy gelato, but I also love that they sell lots of sample sachets of their protein powders. Funnily enough they gave me a discount code months after contacting them, so I am happy to be able to provide that for you!

• When Your Plate Feels Too Full

  “I wish I had more hours in the day”If you have ever said this, you know what it feels like to have an overflowing plate. In this solo episode, I am diving into The Plate analogy — where the plate represents your capacity and everything you pile on it represents your priorities and day-to-day commitments.When your plate feels too full, it can be much harder to keep your health as a priority. But instead of waiting for life to quiet down (spoiler: it rarely does), we can take a more practical approach: learning how to expand our capacity (the size of our plate) and reduce the load (take unnecessary things off it).I cover how you can expand your capacity by:→ Getting clear on your priorities→ Aligning priorities→ Stacking habits→ Scheduling and planning→ Prioritising your health→ Simplifying and automatingAs well as how to take things off your plate through:→ Acknowledging emotional labour→ Delegating and outsourcing→ Setting boundaries and saying no→ Challenging “shoulds” and creating a not-doing list→ Looking at where you are leaking energy and cutting unnecessary stressors→ Identifying what is urgent, important or otherwiseThis episode will help you step back, assess your plate honestly, and make intentional decisions so your health doesn’t fall off.Don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss a juicy episode!💌 Got a question, comment, or tip you want to share about this topic?
