Summary
Emma Storey-Gordon is an online coach and educator who joins me to debunk health, fitness and weight loss myths and interrogate the middle ground between diet culture and anti-diet.
During our conversation we discuss a lot; everything from tapping into motivation, the many myths out there about health, weight loss and fitness that are incredibly unhelpful, the huge middle ground between diet culture and anti-diet culture, why changing your mindset is always a better goal than a weight or clothes size, the benefits of delayed gratification, why it’s a myth that watching what you eat and going to the gym is joyless, why consistency is the most vital component to achieving your goals and so much more.
