It’s finally here! As I mentioned in my post earlier in the week, the whole idea of sharing my body confidence story started as a video idea. I wanted to add my story to the Confident You video series and share with you where I’ve come from and where...

I realised something! My YouTube channel offers the Confident You experience, but it’s super limited. I was lucky enough to share videos featuring Chantelle from Fat Mum Slim and Rachel from Rachel Gee Bee on developing relationships with their bodies. BUT my...

If you follow me on Instagram, you will know I started working with Elissa, a coach, around my relationship with food, eating, and exercise. I did it to combat a lifetime of disordered eating and ideas associated with my body. I feel like I’ve let get a little...

I must really annoy you, huh? Me and the way I won’t let you tell me what to do. The woman I am must push your buttons. I look at you, the faceless, and I stand determined, in spite of everything you said is broken about me. That must get to you. But I...
