The Diet Diaries

27-02-2023 • 47 mins

Today is a very special episode of The Diet Diaries because I’m talking with one of my very best friends in the world who is also a brilliant movement coach, Alia Bisat.

The overlap between the work Alia does as a movement coach and the work I do around nutrition and body image is truly incredible and that’s what we’re diving into today.

Here are some of the big topics Alia and I discuss:

  • Why there is no quick fix solution for figuring out how to eat,  how to move and how to improve body image
  • The instant gratification trap and how to avoid it
  • Why avoiding the foods were afraid of and the movements that cause pain actually make everything worse
  • The value of learning to be uncomfortable
  • The intersection of body image and chronic pain and how you learn to change your beliefs around yourself
  • Exactly why making changes around your body is so hard and what to do about it
  • How your self perception around your body changes how you move and interact with the world


Here is a link to the magic video Alia talks about, definitely worth a watch!
