About this episode
Brave, calm, and a little bit hungry. In this episode I share why I chose a 7-day fast and what sitting in deliberate discomfort taught me about control, calm, and getting life done without the constant rush. We talk practical planning (decisions made ahead of time = peace), how to meet urges with compassion, and why women should consider their cycle and hormones if they choose to fast. This isn’t about perfection or punishment — it’s about self-trust, clarity and creating ease on purpose.In this episode:Why “discomfort on purpose” builds confidence (and how to do it safely)The mindset that makes fasting (or any hard thing) simplerPlanning ahead so your future self has an easier dayUrges, triggers and the skill of pausing without dramaWomen’s hormones, cycles and why context mattersKindness, always: doing hard things without the self-bullyingTake this with you:You don’t need to be comfortable to be okay.Decide once, support yourself often.Compassion beats willpower, every time.Note: This episode is for inspiration only. NOT educational and NOT medical advice. I'm purely sharing my experience. If you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, have a history of disordered eating, or any medical condition, please speak to your GP first before fasting. It isn't for everyone. If this helped, share it with a friend who’s feeling overwhelmed.
