Sometimes it's best to let you know how I can help Sometimes it's best to let you know how I can help you in black and white. There's so many grey areas in food and nutrition, I want to make it a simple choice whether I'm the right person to work with or not.

I'm able to work with you if you feel that your relationship with food is verging chaotic and you have disorderly patterns, but you haven't got an eating disorder (or don't think you do). You think about food alot and aren't in your element around it, but it's not obsessive. You feel like you should be better with it, and you feel overwhelmed with what you read in the media and you are confused. 

I'm here to help you develop a positive, enjoyable relationship with food and create healthy habits for you that stick. Those that give you optimimum health and functionality.

I do this in a very practical way. By looking at you as an individual (my life coach hat) and then helping you apply the changes you need (my mentor and chef hat). Finally I give you the part that's often missing - the combination of motivation and understanding that you are enough and yes, you deserve to have a balanced relationship with food too. 

What I'm not here to do is do lab tests or give you nutritional supplements. If you feel that you are looking for this specific personal science-based approach then a Nutritionist or Registered Nutrional Therapist can help with that (and I know a few brilliant ones that I'd definitely recommend). Instead, I work with you on a person-centered and practical level, helping you navigate and motivate yourself through this confusion and overwhelm.

I hope that helps. PLEASE share to anyone you think might need help or DM me if this sounds like you. Better to prevent than let things slip and go to far. It's a new niche area in food but one that's very important. 

Big love

If you struggle to keep your food varied and balan If you struggle to keep your food varied and balanced, here's the kind of lunch you can make that includes 10 different really lovely ingredients. It took 4 minutes to make (not quite this quick) and consisted of kids leftover peas and broccoli, left over lentils, left over chickpeas all heated in the microwave. Then I sliced up tomatoes, halloumi, avo and popped on some olive oil, lemon and pumpkin seeds. Oh, and some last minute harissa at the end.

By adding all these different nutrients in you are creating a really easy way to add variety to your meals.

You can so do this too. And if you don't think you can, let's look at what's getting in your way.

Don't forget to save to your 'recipe collection' for when you need inspiration šŸ’›

Big love,

What do you think of when people talk about balanc What do you think of when people talk about balance? A constant? A static line? Something held in perfect balance? Balance is an idea of constant juggling. Of ebbing and flowing. Of there being one 'amount' of energy/time/amount of food, and balancing all the aspects of it. Balancing is not purist or evangelical. It's about living in balance. Constantly in motion. Never perfect. It's really helpful to think of your diet this way. Be kind to yourself. Live in an ebb and flow of balance rather than a static equilibrium. That way you'll never get stuck.

Finding our personal food stories, from the langua Finding our personal food stories, from the language we heard around food as a child (Was it restricitve? Was it negative? Was it image-based?) to where we ate, when we ate, and whether there was lots or little food around, all adds up to how we perceive food as adults. 

And unfortunately, our food stories are often what can get us stuck and be the blocker of what's getting in the way of having a nourishing relationship with food now. 

It's like we can see new recipes, menu plans, quick fix fasting yadda-yadda as the sticking plasters to our food issues, but until we get to the bottom of the root cause of where this is all coming from, nothing else will get us over the line towards healthy eating habits and beyond.

It can seem hard to start diving into this, as lots of it might not be anything you've really considered of before. It just felt 'normal'. But once we start unlocking these truths, and working out which ones are serving us, and which ones we are happy to let go, amazing things will happen.

Sharing pockets of my food story, I always thought I was confident around food. We lived in Belgium and good food was high on the agenda. But then I think back and there were definitely defining moments... when a school doctor said I was overweight (I heard obese which left me feeling really ashamed and embarrassed) aged 10. When my Dad jokingly called me Ten Tonne Tessa (often and with a big heart but still!), when incredibly close friends at school and uni were diagnosed with Eating Disorders and I visited them in hospital, feeling utterly helpless. And then when I was 18 and realised that I be creative with food (as I had always been with art), which filled a big creative whole for me. 

Let me know if this resonates with you, and if you are fed up with being on a constant diet or are feeling icky about food right now, and think 2023 will be your year for final change. I've limited space on my 1:1 coaching programme for November and December, and then slots open in January. Are you IN???

I've just found a gorgeous fruit and veg shop on t I've just found a gorgeous fruit and veg shop on the way back from the school tun and meeting in Totnes called @anniesfruitshop. I'm really particular when it comes to small food shops as for me the quality of the produce is more important than a fancy layout with souvenir-type food brands. I think it stems back to my Art History degree and the Bauhaus movement which said function over form. Meaning somethings got to work rather than just look good. 

@anniesfruitshop was a total delight and I got lots of inspiring ingredients which I'm loking forward to cooking with. Hope this helps with some inspiration for you too.

Do you find it hard to get to a local food shop as you are too short on time? If so, go when you are nearby (like on a school run) but don't go out of your way to get there.  That way, you'll be more likely to stick to it and make it part of your routine. As a coach, this kind of healthy habit stacking is exactly what we look at. Head to the link in my bio and book a call so we can talk about how to make healthier habits in your life.
Hello lovely people. Can I ask a favour? I need yo Hello lovely people. Can I ask a favour? I need your help in my business. I help make nutritious food joyful for busy people by using my two solid strengths... coaching and cooking. 

But the thing is, there's no term for this on Google as I saw a gap in the market in terms of offerings and created my own solution to this very big, costly and global problem. On a day to day level, this isn't important until I come to work on my SEO to help reach more people and help transform more lives.

I've never been a 'box' person. I think it stems from living in Belgium and America growing up, and as an English person you never quite fitted into a box. And I love that. I thrive on it. It's what my business is built on (I even have a line in my logo below the DizzleSky which symbolises being a platform and not a box!!!! šŸ™ŒšŸ™ŒšŸ™Œ)

It's also why I studied as a coach and mentor, rather than focusing on nutrition, so that I could help all aspects of people lives as we get to the root cause of their problems.

So how then would you look for me on Google? I've asked the European Mentoring and Coaching Council (EMCC) today as that's who I'm accredited with. But I wanted to hear your thoughts, from you lovely lot.

If you were searching for someone who could make cooking nutritious food joyful for you as a busy person, what would you type?

When I work with clients 1:1 it's personal. We del When I work with clients 1:1 it's personal. We delve seep in to why they might think, feel and act as they do. I ask questions, and get them to reflect on things they might not have thought about before, and often never voiced out loud. Things come up, tears are often shared, emotions bubble to the surface and reflections and life-changing moments take place. 

And as much as our new word means that it's brilliant to do this over zoom, sometimes nothing beats meeting in person. (I should know, I've just driven a 5 hour trip to see my Neurologist about my narcolepsy today. Total no brainer to see him in person and I found it much more beneficial than on the phone). 

Meeting clients IRL in a space that feels right is something I've been working on recently as I myself have missed that connection. And as well as working from home and on zoom. For me it's super important that my clients feel safe so they can open up, and inspired to be healthier. So, I am DELIGHTED to announce that I'm working amongst an amazing small group of local counsellors and life coaches at the @harbour.house.arts.yoga in Kingsbridge, South Devon. 

It's got a properly delicious vegetarian cafe so if you're worried about where to have lunch before or after, that's sorted!

If you've been on the fence about seeing me, and were worried about doing it all our sessions online, send me a message and we can find a time to book you in. Looking forward to meeting you IRL soon!!

A really fun video to re-find on an equally disgus A really fun video to re-find on an equally disgusting rainy November day. For some reason I'd taken it off my website (as a small business owner sometimes we change content often and for no particular reason!!) But when I came back to it today it really resonated with why I love helping all my clients and members. Although it makes me a bit sad as we've since ripped out this greenhouse which was my escape den from my husband and kids šŸ˜‚

Before becoming a parent, I thought feeding my family would be a walk in the park. Every day enjoyable.

But, wake up people, it can be really really tough!! For all of us! I totally put my hand up and say meal times aht DizzleSky HQ don't always go brilliantly. But talking about your problems, reflecting on what's happening, being open and honest and making achievable plans makes can make everything a whole lot better. Sometimes we just need to see the wood for the trees and get out of that tunnel of doom and feeling of complete overwhelm.

I've been having a proper admin day and re-doing my linktree links and starting to re-work my website so it's clearer for you to see how I can help you šŸ‘šŸ‘šŸ‘. So head to the link in my bio and have a peek šŸ‘€

Halloween's not a fun night for everyone. In fact, Halloween's not a fun night for everyone. In fact, as a parent or adult it can feel really tough. I for one know, that although I'm super excited for my kids, that I'll be shouting at them by 8pm as they would have had a bucket-load of sweets just before bed (it's Monday night FFS!!) and they'll be running round like complete loons on a massive sugar high. šŸŽƒšŸ˜±šŸ¬šŸ­šŸ« And although that might sound like fun, it's really, REALLY not.

For others, it can feel really hard as we know that we can be healthy if we don't have sweets of chocolates in the house tempting us, and calling out 'eat me, eat me!' And then those horrible feelings of guilt set in, which makes us feel rubbish.

So what will Halloween look like in your house tonight? Share honestly in the comments below šŸ‘‡šŸ»šŸŽƒ

A massive thank you to Ruth Addicott for sharing m A massive thank you to Ruth Addicott for sharing my real life story behind my biz in this week's Womens Weekly. 

I am so passionate about getting the message of my mission to support and empower people with their kitchen confidence to people who are struggling with a lack of time, lack of energy, lack of confidence, lack if motivation, lack of skills etc to cook healthy meals and having an article written in a magazine like this really, really helps.

The more people I can reach, the more I can help those who want to confidently cook at home from fresh healthy ingredients, and the more we can help our nation to live their best, healthiest and happiest lives. 

Ruth was brilliant to speak to when she interviewed me, and managed to pull together the jigsaw of why and how I do what I do, as well as really shine a spotlight on why knowing your Cooking Type can really help you when you cook.

Grab yourself a copy or make sure you read it when you're next at the Salon! 

Thanks too to @hairbysalon43 for such a relaxing morning getting my hair done, @louisehaines1978 for her super pro branding pics in the article (she should really do this as a main gig!!) and @charlottexcrisp and her incredible Lightbulb šŸ’” group for helping spread the word for small businesses. You rock 🤩

They are perrrrfect for when you feel you need a kick up the butt to get your body back in shape, or start cooking and eating better... and I know from speaking to many of you recently that this is how you are feeling. 

There are SO many soup recipes on the internet (and in my membership) if you want to stop buying Heniz or Covent Garden soups but are stuck for ideas. 

I adore chicken noodle soup, tomato and lentil, and butternut throughout the year, and then add in seasonal soups like mushroom, spicy thai soups and tomato and roasted sweet potatoes.

Tell me, what's your favourite? šŸ‘‡šŸ»

Calorie counting - do you?? I've been away in Oxfo Calorie counting - do you?? I've been away in Oxford and London this week, eating out more than normal, and I became SO aware of calories everywhere on menus. Is it helpful? That's for another post. 

But first for this one... I just wanted to show you an apple. Straight from the tree. I'm guessing around 50 calories. This is a different processed or ultra processed food item that is around 50 calories. Such as a biscuit. The apple has health benefits when you eat it. So your body GAINS something from it 😁 This is the difference, and this is what counting our calories doesn't show us. 

It's a mindset shift away from the traditional way of looking at calories but it's the one which will help you create a positive relationship with food. Think about what health benefits you may gain from what you eat, and how close its come from a natural source. 

Let me know if you agree or if you struggle to get past counting calories! šŸ‘‡šŸ»

How often do you worry about being hungry if you e How often do you worry about being hungry if you eat and cook more healthy food? I want to help you turn this thought on its head. The more you fill yourself with the good stuff, the less you'll be snacking because you're hungry and left stuck in the snack/guilt/grab anything cycle.

Abundance is key when it comes to healthy cooking and eating. Adding in whole food ingredients, plenty of vegetables, pulses and natural flavourings are what will keep you feeling fuller for longer and NOT feel deprived. It's a total win win and I challenge you to start adopting this mindset. 

Repeat after me... 'Good food is good fuel' šŸ‘šŸ‘šŸ‘

Create a 'healthy motivation' collection in your saved posts and keep this one there for when you feel yourself sliding.

Hope that helps!

When you're unmotivated to eat well, it can quickl When you're unmotivated to eat well, it can quickly become a cycle of making poor food choices and then feeling pretty rubbish as a result. This can be physical (feeling sluggish) and mental (feeling guilty). Motivation itself however is a word to be curious about. Instead of being an overwhelming task or place that we have to reach in order to 'achieve' its almost the opposite. It is defined as a driving force that initiates and directs behaviour. 

So raising your awareness of what's driving your actions and behaviours so that your motivation is positive rather than negative is super important. Once you've got clarity  over where you are and what's driving your behaviour and actions (either in the past or right now), the motivation to eat well will flow easily and you won't feel like it's such an uphill battle.

Double tap if you agree! šŸ’›
