How long is it since you said out loud what you actually want?

Not what the family wants for dinner. Not what would keep the peace. What you want.

Expression is one of my five core business values, along with authentic, contribution, growth and integrity. For me, expression is about being creative, using my unique gifts and the process of growing and becoming my very best self. It is paired very closely with being authentic and making my contribution.

For some women, food becomes the place where the unsaid things land. That's not about willpower. It's what happens when there's no other outlet.

Finding your own voice and expressing what you want is part of the work, and it's often where things start to loosen.

"I'll start on Monday."
How many times have you said it, and how did it feel when Monday came and went?

Integrity is one of my five core business values. For me it means fairness, respect and honesty, including with myself. It's also why I won't promise results my clients will get. I can't guarantee them – results depend on the client’s effort, not mine. I'd rather be honest than promise something that’s not within my control.

Each time a diet falls over, many women quietly lose a little more trust in themselves.

That's a bigger cost than the weight.

It's why I work with mini habits so small you can actually keep them. Self-trust gets rebuilt one kept promise at a time.

You can give and give and still end the day feeling empty.

For a lot of women, that isn't because they give too much. It's because some of the giving was never a choice.

I was fifteen when I became the woman of the house, and it never occurred to me that I had a choice. Years later I found myself filling the same gap in my marriage. Same role, different room.

Contribution is one of my five core values, along with authentic, growth, integrity and expression.

When I contribute by choice, it fills me up. When it's a role I've slipped into, it wears me out.

For many women I work with, this shows up around food. The last one to sit down. The one who finishes what's left on the plate. Looking after everyone, with nothing set aside for herself.

Somewhere along the way, many women decide that the person they are now is the finished version.

"I'm just someone who can't stick to things." "I've never been good at that."

Growth is one of my five core business values. Swimming was something I was bad at, and I never did get good at it. But I learned to change what I said to myself mid-lap, and it got better.

At 70 I've just taken up kayaking. I'm still collecting evidence that we keep changing, whatever our age.

When a woman has tried and failed at diet after diet, she can start to believe the failing is who she is.

It isn't. It's a story, and stories can be rewritten.

Comment "Growth" if you're ready to write a new one.
