Ep. 143 - unpopular truth: You're not over worked
18/11/2020 Duration: 16minHarsh truth time.. You’re not burnt out because you are working too hard. It’s the not setting boundaries, not coming off social media and doing low level, low productivity work constantly that is burning you out. You aren’t working too hard you are working for too long with zero out put. You’re ‘working’ all the time but you never actually focus and quite frankly your productivity is shit. It is like trying to build muscle by doing 100s of body weight squats rather than actually lifting some weight and creating an adequate stimulus for growth… and then resting and recovering so that growth can occur. The idea behind rest, recovery and adaptation is that you are able to come back and work harder.. not that you work less hard. It is easy to fall into the trap of long hours and achieving very little. But you feel like you’re hustling because you’ve been on your laptop from 6am to 11pm. This is almost bred into us given how we are usually paid - for time not productivity. Sure, you might be burnt

Ep. 129 - Diet V Anti diet
07/10/2020 Duration: 07minI often like to frame fat as something you have NOT something you are. Today I discuss why I will continue to do that. And why both diet culture and anti diet culture are ridiculous. It is a crazy time that we live in where diet culture assumes everyone wants to lose fat and anti diet culture assumes no one wants to lose fat and we should all just be happy the way we are. Well I will stay firmly in the HUGE grey area in-between diet culture and anti diet culture where I believe if you want to change to better yourself then you bloody well can. & you don’t have to justify that One of the most amazing things about life is that we can change almost anything to some extent. Sure, love yourself but love yourself enough to work on yourself and change yourself , upgrade yourself to a better you. Thats what life is all about.
