How not to press the F**K it button this December

How not to press the F**K it button this December

This week's episode is all about surviving December without self-sabotaging your efforts.

If you've ever found yourself pressing the f**k it button in December, watching yourself spiral into overwhelm, skipping exercise, overeating and promising yourself you'll sort it all out in January, this episode is for you.

December is busy.

The magic making, the events, the admin, the Christmas cards, the presents, the work deadlines, the food everywhere, the people pleasing, the perfectionism.

It's a lot.

And when overwhelm hits, it's tempting to just give up and tell yourself you'll deal with it all in January.

But we're not doing that this December.

In this episode, I share my 3 top tips to not pressing that button -


  • Manage your expectations

Not lower them, manage them.


  • Know your triggers

What tips you over the edge? The dark evenings? Having no time for yourself? A packed schedule with no breathing room? Debbie from the school run?


  • Do not leave it to January

Don't push your mental health, nutrition or exercise until January.


If this resonated with you then my Mindful Eating Workshop will too.

It’s perfect for emotional eaters and yo yo dieters.

The Virtual Introduction to Mindful Eating Workshop is on Tuesday 9th and Thursday 11th December at 8pm to 9pm. Come for both nights (or catch the recordings).

I will make you think and feel differently around food this Christmas. You'll reduce your emotional eating and you won't feel like you need to restrict yourself in January.

Book here.
