Chatting with Cara - The Relationship with Food Podcast17 Okt 2025

I read all the self-help books… but still can’t change

This week on Chatting with Cara, I’m diving into one of the most common frustrations I hear from women in my coaching sessions, why you can read all the self-help books, listen to every podcast, follow all the motivational accounts and still feel stuck.

If you’ve ever had that moment of reading a golden sentence and thinking-

“That’s me! That’s what I need to do!” only to forget it completely in the chaos of real life then this episode is for you.

In this episode, I cover-

Why awareness alone isn’t enough to create change.

The missing link between knowing and doing.
How “all or nothing” thinking stops you from making progress.
What it really means to apply personal growth to your life.
The role of accountability and why going it alone rarely works.
How coaching bridges the gap between theory and real life.

You’ll learn why personal development feels so frustrating when it stays theoretical and how coaching helps you turn that knowledge into meaningful, lasting change that fits your unique circumstances, lifestyle and responsibilities.

This isn’t just about knowing what to do, it’s about knowing how to actually live it.

If today’s episode resonates, come and explore how coaching can help you apply what you already know and move forward with confidence.

Fill out this coaching enquiry form and we can get you booked into your free consultation where I will map out how I’m going to help you apply the theory to your life and keep you accountable along the way.

Why I only trust evidence-based nutrition (and what it's got to do with your relationship with food)

Someone sent me a supplement in my DMs this week. It had 1,500 reviews and was £25 for 30 capsules, so £50 a month for her and her husband. I had a look on PubMed for evidence that it works. Turns out...

Diets give you rules. This gives you freedom.

You've tried the shakes. The app where you photograph your dinner. The plan where Tuesday's your free day. You've got the t-shirt, well multiple t-shirts. But have you ever tried building a healthy re...
