But let’s talk about the REAL highlight about cruises…The Food!!

I asked the kids in my workshop last week…
“Do you think I can fit ALL the food on the cruise into this size stomach?” ✊

Cue giggles. Every time.

Because even on a cruise… with food EVERYWHERE…
👉 Your body still has limits
👉 And your body actually talks to you (if you listen)

I might be good… but I’m not that good 😂

My real “magic trick”?
🚶‍♀️ Big walks after eating - hello stairs.
💧 Water
👂 Listening when my body says “that’s enough”… most of the time 😆🤔

Also… missing Midas the whole time 🐶💛

Do I have any cruise fans following me? 🚢

Your brain isn’t broken… it’s underfed. 🧠

I used to think something was wrong with me.
Scared to go to school. Overthinking everything.

But no one ever asked…
👉 was my brain and belly getting what it actually needed?

When I started eating real food from the ground, colour, variety, actual nutrients…. things began to shift. Not overnight. But enough to notice.

This is why I do what I do. So many kids tell me they are afraid to go to school. Nutritious foods don’t just help to keep us healthy, they also can play a huge role in our mental wellbeing.

Because kids deserve to understand their bodies, not fear them.

We have WHAT in our tummy?!

This is why I don’t just tell kids what to eat…
I teach them how their body actually works.

Like a mechanic understanding a car…once they get it, everything makes more sense.

That’s where the real power is.

Big thank you to OSHC Toowong for having us today 🧡 We had the best time!

Happy Easter 🐰✨

My boys are very lucky…
because I don’t really love chocolate that much 😅 I know right!?

BUT…
these bunnies are looking VERY tasty 🤔

Not saying they’ll disappear…
but I’m also not not saying that 😂

I will admit though
I’m a little partial to Darrell Lea and Haigh’s - it’s coming to Brisbane 🙌

What’s your go-to chocolate if you eat it? 👇🍫

I started following a content strategy again… and it nearly broke me 😂
I delegated this...but people knew it wasn't me in the end. I also lost one of my creative outlets.

So I’m going back to simple - which is what always works! Why do we always overcomplicate things? And honestly? I don’t do generic very well.

Real posts. Real thoughts. Real conversations.

Let’s see what happens.

What if anxiety isn’t the problem… but the message you keep ignoring?

That uncomfortable feeling… the one you keep trying to quiet?

What if it’s not here to break you…but to redirect you?

The moment I stopped fighting it… and started listening… everything changed.

This is what resilience looks like…

Today Tyler won gold + silver at the national all styles tournament 🥇🥈 Super proud!!

But what you don’t see…

Is the nervous system moments.
The pressure.
The self-doubt.
The “I don’t want to do this” moments

And choosing to show up anyway.

As a mum… this is everything.

Because we’re not raising kids to win…

We’re raising kids who can handle life.

And today, that showed 💛

If your kid is in the messy middle right now… keep going.

That’s where the growth lives 💛

Well done Tyler!

I said ONE word… and lost the entire room 💀

Teaching nutrition… but make it chaotic 😂

Somewhere between the poo jokes, the weird faces, and the laughter… they actually get it.

And honestly? That’s where the magic happens.”

Wait… food turns into WHAT?!” 🤯💩

Today we headed over to the north side to with all our props, characters and curious little minds ready to explore what happens inside the human body.

First stop… the digestive system.

We built it piece by piece with our organs and props, figuring out where food travels once it leaves our plate.

Then the fun really began…

We created a rainbow of foods using colourful fruit and veggie props.

👃👀👂 We used our senses to explore food in our mindful eating circle. And yes… there were blindfold taste tests involved.

But the BEST part?

That moment when it all clicks.

When the kids suddenly realise:

why we eat food, where it goes in the body… and where the stuff we don’t need ends up.

Cue the giggles. 😂

I absolutely love watching those aha moments happen in real time.

Curiosity turns into understanding…and understanding turns into healthier choices.

A huge thank you for having me again today and letting me bring the Digestive Factory to life.

I’m so grateful I get to share this message with the next generation. 💛

When I was younger girl living with day to day panic attacks, I found a book that helped me realise I wasn’t alone.

Living With It by Bev Aisbett.

Years later I wrote my own book sharing the story I once felt ashamed of… because I never want another young girl to feel that alone.

And the most surreal part?

Bev read my book and wrote a testimonial that now sits at the front of it.

Why do kids get all the fun? 😆

Most people think wellness talks are just…

Eat this.
Don’t eat that.

But the truth is... learning sticks when people are curious, laughing and actually experiencing it.

In my adult workshops we experiment, ask questions, challenge assumptions and have a lot of fun along the way.

Because when people enjoy the process…
they remember the message.

✨ Corporate wellbeing days
✨ Conferences & events
✨ Community groups

Turns out adults love workshops too.
