Today I’m going to be hitting you with some hard truths and I’m not going to pull my punches.

There are 5 limiting beliefs I see or hear regularly that are actively getting in peoples way and preventing them from levelling up their performance.

If you are doing one or all of these things there is a good chance you could be doing so much more, if you just stopped these mindsets.

So hopefully, after this episode, you’ll have some awareness of how you have been holding yourself back and will be on the next step to finally achieving.

In this episode I share:

  • Why limiting beliefs can affect you

  • How the limiting belief of ‘I’m too busy’ is stopping you

  • The ways to prevent being overcome by feeling busy

  • What happens when we think “I just need more time in the day’

  • The small ways we use up our time if we don’t plan

  • Why relying on 6-8 week challenges is detrimental to long term success

  • My strategy to use instead of the 6-8 week programs

  • Why saying “I’ll start when I’ve achieved a certain goal” actually undermines you

  • How you can avoid putting in the real work when you believe there is a magic bullet or supplement

  • Self-awareness is crucial for overcoming limiting beliefs and achieving personal growth.

Key Quotes

“There are no magic bullets, there is no magic diet or supplement that is coming to save you.”

“Self awareness is the greatest super power that we can all have”

“If we don’t take steps towards where we want to be, we are just kicking the can down the road”

Today we are talking about why dedication and willpower are not enough on their own to change and maintain your ideal lifestyle.

As I have hinted at in previous episodes, to make sustained change we need to need to focus on forming new habits and breaking the old ones, but even more importantly it is about forming new habits that we can set on auto pilot.

So In this episode I’ll be giving more information on how and why you should be doing this as well as some good starting points.

In this episode I share:

  • Why a lack of strategy and structure can make it hard to thrive

  • Why using willpower is not enough to sustain change

  • The reason that going from 0-100 won't work

  • The secret to gaining momentum

  • The importance of starting with a life audit process

  • Examples of a varied lifestyle that you need to account for when planning to change habits

  • Why having structure is not about becoming a robot with your habits

  • How everyone around you benefits from you using structure and not will power to maintain your lifestyle

  • Examples of some guard rails you can use

Key Quotes

“Even though it can be difficult to choose yourself, every single person around you benefits from you thriving.”

“The goal really is about forming new habits, breaking the old and putting them on auto pilot so we don’t have to think about them.”

“Stop beating yourselves up and thinking that the next version of yourself is out of reach.”

I have done my best to help provide all the information you need to make the best decisions around your nutrition and health, but sometimes, when we are short on time and energy, we just need to be told exactly what to do.

So I am just going to give you the facts on what you should be eating. If you’re struggling to decide what your meals should be, I’m going to lay it all out so you can know exactly what to improve with your nutrition.

“So while the principle is all the plants, the way in which we do that is going to differ from person to person.”

“The goal here is to make sure every meal and snack has some colour in it.”

“When it comes to dinner the main thing you're wanting to look out for is the size and also the timing.”

This week I am shifting gears, and instead of talking from the expert space, I am having a personal episode and sharing the lessons and mistakes I have made from my journey.

After doing a number of different podcast episodes as a guest I have identified some key takeaways from my story that can serve as lessons you can learn, rather than have to experience yourself.

In this episode I share:

  • The time period 27 years ago that started my life trajectory

  • The point where I started to get very run down because of how hard I was working

  • How this experience helped me become a sports dietitian

  • The first sports opportunity I got after graduating

  • The impact that my mentor had on my career

  • The first mistake I made around the idea of hard work

  • How I made the mistake of thinking I was invincible

  • The danger of prioritising other people before yourself

  • How we can have it all and not burn out

  • Why I thought I was being healthy when I wasn't

  • How sickness was a big warning sign that I was doing things wrong

  • How all the ways I wasn’t caring for myself caused an 18 month recovery journey post covid

Key Quotes

“This isn’t about dedicating all of your time and energy to health and wellbeing, but this is about having your life work for you.”

“There is no job, no business, no career that should come at the cost of your happiness as a human.”

Welcome back to season 2 of Stay At The Top!

I thought a great place to start this season on would be to discuss the 4 main warning signs that our body and brain give us when it comes to our health and wellbeing. If you are like my clients, chances are you’re living a busy, hectic life, often having to look after other people and this makes it very easy to miss these warning signs.

In this episode I share:

  • Why the ‘energy crash and burn’ is one of the big warning signs
  • What can cause the energy crash and burn
  • How to avoid or handle this change in energy
  • Why the one size fits all meal and exercise plans don’t work
  • How to figure out your individual routine to avoid the crash and burn
  • Why the actual craving for sugar is a warning sign for your health
  • Why eating sugar doesn't actually help with your energy levels
  • How gut issue work as the third warning sign for your health
  • What is often actually causing gut issues
  • The importance of FODMAPS
  • Why low immunity and frequent illness is a big warning sign
  • How under eating can lead to illness and bad health
  • My experience with under fuelling and how it affected my performance

Key Quotes

“I believe every single person has an operating system and a routine and d a rhythm that works for them.”

“If you are getting sick often, take that as a huge sign from your body and brain that something is not quite right.”

Intermittent fasting and time restricted eating is a diet trend that continues to appeal to a huge number of people hoping to change their health and fitness.

But is this the magic bullet to all your health problems or is it a gimmick that is leading people astray?

As is often the case, the truth is somewhere in the middle.

Today, I wanted to talk about the pros and cons and simply weigh in on this topic which feels like it is just getting louder and louder

In this episode I share:

  • How I've seen some people using fasting

  • What IF and TR actually is and what it does

  • The gut health benefits to fasting

  • Why time restricted eating is not the answer to fixing your gut health

  • Why these trends can be a band aid measure for some people

  • Who can benefit from using this

  • Who wouldn’t actually benefit from using fasting and why

  • An example of how fasting helped an afl player short term but not long term

  • What I require from clients before I consider fasting for them

  • The work out routines that fasting won’t work with

Key Quotes

“I'm seeing a lot of people subscribing to intermittent fasting as a way to put a band aid on their poor lifestyle choices.”

“If you are someone training like an athlete, at a high intensity, maybe intermittent fasting isn’t the thing for you to be doing all of the time.”

If you don’t address your nutrition and what you are eating, please don’t kid yourself and think, I'm intermittent fasting so I'm all good here.”

When I take on a new client there is one thing I do every time before anything else. I do it before sitting down for a deep dive, I do it before planning, and it drastically accelerates their success.

That one thing is a ‘life audit’ and today I’m going to explain exactly what that is and how you can do it for yourself as well.

In this episode I share:

  • The first step that I go through with all high performing clients

  • What exactly is a "life audit"

  • What I as a support person get from an audit for my clients

  • How the information captured can change depending on the part of your life or year you are in

  • Where people go wrong when trying to achieve consistency

  • The most important thing to get from capturing life audit information

  • How a life audit can help with consistency

  • An example of how this audit works with athletes

  • The first step you can take to completing your own life audit

Key Quotes

“Since I’ve started using life audits with my clients the rate of which they have had success has been extremely accelerated.”

“Fundamental to helping people achieve their goals, it's about consistency.”

“A high performance life doesn’t have to be suffering, difficult or unenjoyable.”

When it comes to nutrition, no one leverages it’s power quite like an elite athlete. They (along with their coaches) know that the best outcomes for wellbeing and performance can occur when you are utilising nutrition in its best form.

But what exactly does this look like?

For me and my clients this means using the 5 levels in a sort of pyramid plan and layering them on top of each other in just the right way so that they all work together.

For this episode I want to give you a peek behind the curtain to see exactly what these levels look like and how you can use them as well.

In this episode I share:

  • How learning about nutrition can be compared to exploring a new city

  • What a 'life audit process' is’ and why you should do it

  • The 5 levels of the ‘performance nutrition hierarchy of priorities’

  • Why we need to look at energy balance first

  • The importance of timing and periodisation

  • How gut health optimisation is also vital to your wellbeing and performance

  • What exactly it means to look at your ‘performance levels’

  • The areas and ways to look at supplements

Key Quotes

“If you’re not sleeping properly, not eating properly, if you’re not moving and you want to just layer in all the supplements they are going to be a drop in the ocean.”

“Whether you’re an Olympic athlete, business owner or CEO, for you to perform at your best you need to be the healthiest version of yourself”

We’ve all experienced trying to start a new routine, only to be derailed by old habits. Habits can be both a powerful tool for starting new behaviours as well as a limiting behaviour that holds us back. And no one knows that better than Dr Gina Cleo

As a trained dietitian, Gina noticed that her clients struggled to maintain their progress over time, much like those elusive New Year's resolutions.

Driven by the desire to find lasting solutions, Dr. Gina Cleo pressed pause on her clinic and completed a Ph.D. at Bond University. It was there that she uncovered the transformative power of habit change and its potential to impact every facet of life.

Now, Dr. Gina Cleo specialises in guiding people to transform their habits, whether it's for their health, technology usage, sleep routines, work and money-related behaviours, or relationship dynamics.

In this episode Gina share:

  • Why she got into the habit change space

  • What exactly is a habit?

  • Why do we form habits?

  • The 3 stages of the habit formation framework

  • How is a habit triggered in a person

  • What is the process of forming a habit

  • How do we as people form habits

  • Popular myths around forming habits and whether or not they are true

Key Quotes

“A lot of people have heard it takes 21 days to create a new habit. The research is actually that it is from 21 days and it can take up to a year or 10 months to create a new habit.”

“The simpler the habit you are trying to create, the quicker its going to be to develop.”

“We don’t want our goals to look anything like our shopping list.”

“Every habit has a trigger. If we remove the trigger then the habit no longer takes place.”

For many of us, the only way we have known to operate is to work non stop until we reach the holiday.

But after years of doing that I think many of us are starting to realise that the excess work we have to do before we go, combined with the extra work we have to do when we return, make holidays a poor form of recovery.

There is another way that a lot of people are only just starting to discover. Micro forms of recovery are often simple, easy and can completely change our energy and kick burn out to the kerb.

In this episode I share:

  • Why micro recovery strategies are low hanging fruit for high performing individuals
  • What a micro recovery strategy actually is
  • How to apply them into your life
  • The benefit of including these in helping to prevent burnout
  • Some of the ways I am seeing people trying to make changes this year
  • Why the old way of high performing and recovering on a holiday isn’t working anymore
  • The restorative benefits of micro recovery
  • The advantages of micro recovery strategies
  • The ultradian rhythm and 90 minute work cycles
  • The exhausting way many of us start our weeks
  • 6 strategies that you can call on as micro forms of recovery
  • A personal example of how a house set up can influence your micro recovery
  • My personal example of how I put in boundaries with my phone

Key Quotes

"For many, holidays don't seem to do the trick anymore”

“Often the workload we scramble to wrap up before leaving and the mountain of work that greets us when we return can make the whole holiday thing seem a bit pointless.”

"Eating lunch away from your work area can significantly improve you mood and cognitive function."

With the start of the new year many of you may have heard of the Netflix documentary “You Are What You Eat” and be considering changing your own lifestyle based on the results the program showed.

Before you run out to the supermarket and buy every vegetable in sight and throw out every bit of meat left in your fridge and freezer, there is actually a fair bit to unpack and consider about this show. Just like with everything, we need to approach this with nuance and consideration, so this episode will be giving you everything you need to know when it comes to following the advice given in the show.

In this episode I share:

  • My breakdown of the study the show is based on and whether or not it is credible

  • The key results and takeaways from the show and what it says about plant based diets

  • What are telomeres and how the interventions in the show impacted these

  • The big considerations to be aware of when taking the documentary’s results

  • What you should do and not do after watching the documentary

  • The different varieties of plant based food

  • What is a microbiome and how does eating more plants help?

  • Examples of plant based foods that are high in protein

  • The mistake I saw people do after watching similar documentaries in the past

Key Quotes

“What is helpful is to eat more plant based food and increase the diversity of plants.”

“Whilst the people on the plant based diet lost more weight, those on plant based diets also lost considerable amounts of muscle mass”

“It's easier to eat more protein in animal based foods.”

Many of you may not be aware of where I spent the majority of my professional career but I actually spent a decade working with 7 different professional sports teams.

During that time I was fortunate to be a part of teams that won premierships, championships and made a number of grand finals.

From this I have been able to take away so many lessons and learnings from these incredible athletes.

I believe that many of this lessons can be applied to other high performance industries and in this episode I want to share a glimpse of some of the key lessons our athletes know that you should know too.

In this episode I share:

  • My experience working with elite athletes

  • What elite athletes are taught about nutrition that many of us don’t know

  • What pre-hab is and how it can help you as much as it helps athletes

  • The importance of daily routines and rituals

  • How elite athletes periodise their training and how doing the same can help you

  • How rest is important for elite athletes and is for you too

  • The ways athletes utilise rest

  • How we can bring that rest strategy to high performance and leadership

  • The other parts of rest besides just sleeping

  • How seeking therapy can help with rest

  • The importance of building mental resilience

  • The sort of hurdles athletes and high performers may encounter that require resilience

Key Quotes

“Elite athletes understand that nutrition is a key component to optimising their performance and enhancing their longevity.”

“Most people don’t know how good they can actually feel and this is a by-product of you having never experienced it.”

“We don’t want to reach burn out or break down before we change and unfortunately that is often the case.”

Sleep and nutrition are two critically important factors we need to maintain when it comes to living a high performance lifestyle.

But what many of us don’t realise that these two factors do not operate in isolation. In fact the management and maintenance of sleep can often have a positive, or negative effect on our nutrition and the same is true for nutrition’s effect on sleep.

So for this episode we are going to be taking a close look at the relationship between nutrition and sleep and discovering how we can use one to improve the other and the traps that we can fall into.

In this episode I share:

  • The misconception we often make about the connection between sleep and nutrition

  • Just how crucial nutrition is for a good night’s sleep

  • Why people overeat in the evening and why it is bad

  • Why changing your food choices patterns is not about willpower or dedication

  • Why a key strategy to help you leverage nutrition is to sleep better

  • What markers to look for to determine if nutrition is affecting your sleep

  • The role caffeine and alcohol have in our sleep

  • The three main ways poor sleep can impact our nutrition

  • How poor sleep physiologically makes us crave food and caffeine

Key Quotes

“When we're sleeping poorly we're more likely to be craving sweet foods.”

“Poor sleep can lead to overeating, or choosing unhealthy food options and poor food choices can affect our sleep.”

“:The food choices we make every single day are within our control.”

We are in an energy crisis. So many of us report feeling fatigued or exhausted well before we actually should be and a lot of that comes down to poor utilisation of sleep.

If you use the right strategies, your sleep should be giving you the right recovery and energy you need to perform throughout the day. But without it you could very well end up in a self perpetuating cycle that reinforces bad sleep.

In this episode I’m providing the strategies and tools you need to take the first step in reclaiming a strong sleep cycle.

In this episode I share:

  • The 3 key archetypes and what it means for your right next step
  • Why ‘just sleep more’ is not the solution to better sleep recovery
  • The 4 main sleep stages
  • The importance of wearable technology for tracking sleep
  • My recommendations for best wearable tech to use
  • The barriers you might encounter to optimise the quality of our sleep
  • The strategies for improving sleep and overcoming the barrier that might prevent it
  • The 4 different ‘chronotypes and what your chronotype means about your sleep patterns
  • The importance of getting outside right after waking up
  • What you should be considering about how you eat in the later half of the day
  • How many hours before sleep we should be having dinner
  • Why a night routine is more important than a morning routine
  • My recommendations for a night time routine
  • My recommendations for supplements to help the nutrition support for your sleep

Key Quotes

“The reality is feeling better is about pulling the right levers.”

“Often a lot of high performers report they think they sleep well, but at the end of our coaching program, they report that they are currently sleeping better than they were.”

“We’ve all heard that we need to get 7-9 hours of sleep a night and for a lot of us that may not be possible.”

“What happens across the night is we toggle across these different stages, we don’t go from one to the next.”

In order to properly fuel ourselves we need to understand our body. Knowing what parts of our body need what kinds of food is vital to be able to help feed ourselves correctly.

What food is going to our brain? What food does our brain actually need? How much does it need? How will that affect our guts’ relationship with our brain? These are just some of the questions we should be asking, and answering, in order to fuel ourselves properly.

In this episode I share:

  • My advice for how to think about your body and brain

  • Why it’s important to consider what your brain needs when it comes to considering what you're going to eat

  • What is the blood brain barrier and what does it do?

  • The amount of fats that make up the brain and why they are important

  • Some of the physiological responses that can happen if we are under eating

  • The ways the brain and gut are connected

  • What can happen to our adrenals when we’re not fuelling ourselves adequately

  • The side effects that can occur to our thyroid if we are underfuelling

  • The power of being strategic and intentional

  • The mistake I see people make with their meals for the day

  • How you actually create a meal that your body and brain need and the elements to break it down into

  • Where to get all the different fats our brain needs

Key Quotes

“I know breakfast can be hard if you aren’t good at having breakfast. But it’s like any area, you don’t become good if you don’t practice.”

“If you are inconsistent every single day, your body and your brain has no idea what consistency looks like.”

“Fuelling is about giving your body what it needs rather than missing the mark and playing catch ups.”

When it comes to optimising our wellbeing and setting ourselves up to be able to comfortably achieve at the highest level, there are three metrics that I get all my high performing clients to track.

These are the 3 metrics that matter the most when it comes to optimising your wellbeing, performance and quality of life both for you now and future you as well.

Nailing these 3 metrics helps ensures you hit the goals and outcomes you want.

In this episode I share:

  • What exactly are the 3 metrics that matter the most
  • How high performance people can neglect their health
  • What exactly is ‘energy’ and what we mean when we refer to it as a metric
  • Why you don’t always need to use energising activities like cold baths and can look elsewhere
  • The importance of consistency of appetite and managing cravings
  • What you should do to implement regular meals and a new nutrition plan if you never have before
  • Why ‘performance’ is the most individualised metric of the 3
  • How to make the 3 metrics work together
  • How using these metrics can increase your output and ability in work and performance
  • The unmentioned 4th metric to look at after you've mastered the main 3

Key Quotes

“The beautiful thing about having more consistent meals is it delivers more consistent energy levels.”

“When it comes to nutrition…it is literally exactly the same as any other type of training. It takes time.”

“I truly believe you can have it all but it does take approaching it from a different lens.”

Today I wanted to dive into all things cravings to explain why they happen and what are the solutions to buffer them.

Cravings are something that all kinds of high performers struggle with, so you are not alone. I hear it from people on my socials, clients I talk with and with corporate teams I work with in workshops.

Hopefully though, this episode can help put you on the path to putting your cravings behind you.

In this episode I share:

  • What exactly are cravings?
  • What are the different types of cravings?
  • The difference between physical and psychological hunger
  • The 4 main factors that drive cravings
  • The power of pulsing protein intake on cravings
  • Why we can beat cravings by filling up on fibre
  • The ratios of colours to include in snacks to combat cravings
  • Why consistency is absolutely vital to reduce cravings
  • How to handle psychological cravings

Key Quotes

“If you haven’t thought ahead or done some prep, the question becomes what do I feel like for lunch? And it often delivers a very different outcome to what do I have for lunch?”

“Our body and our brain are the clue to what is going on with cravings.”

“You need to eat to perform. It isn’t about what to remove and restrict but about what to include and a mindset of abundance.”

Welcome to the first episode of Stay at the Top.

I’m going to kick off your journey to restructuring how you operate by learning how to truly harness the power of nutrition to elevate your energy, mood, vitality and overall performance in life.

Nutrition is really one of the most underrated strategies when it comes to elevating human potential, whether it’s on the sporting field, board room or any aspect of life.

For some reason we’ve gotten it wrong and focus on what we need to remove and restrict, but I want to teach you how to tune into how you respond to nutrition.

In this episode I’m going to cover the 5 core performance nutrition principles that you need as a high performance individual.

In this episode I share:

  • Where most people get it wrong when building a strategy for themselves
  • The mistake people are making with breakfast and snacks
  • The importance of colours in our foods
  • What exactly is protein pulsing and why it is important
  • Why you should adjust intake to output or periodise nutrition intake
  • The important thing to do to balance out a reduction in carbs
  • The best way to snack successfully
  • My challenge for you to start with snacks

Key Quotes

“I see a snack as the ability to add significant value, bolster your energy levels, stabilise your blood sugar levels and enhance your cognitive output and capacity.”

“It's ok if you want to reduce (your carb intake) but it doesn't mean you need to remove."

“The best way to leverage the power of nutrition is to focus on the perfect principles, not the perfect diet.”
