I love to bake. A weekly loaf or two of sourdough is a constant for me. It’s my valuable kitchen “me time”… but today I was interrupted.

I battled my conscience for the briefest moment, then sprinkled a little extra flour on my apprentice’s hands.

I’m so glad I did.

Some skills are older than recipes.
I want this one to last.

Soup. A classic lunch. Easy to batch, fridge-friendly, flask-ready!

But even when it’s packed with fibre (hello bean, leek & spinach in this case), it fills you up fast… but leaves you hungry again 1–2 hours later. Even a bread side-kick can’t turn it into a slow burn.

So what’s the fix? Let’s do a PFF scan.
Protein ❌ Fats ❌ Fibre ✅ (but blended, which reduces its staying power).

Time to do a Just Add upgrade:
• Cottage cheese for protein
• Tahini for healthy fats
• Walnut croutons for crunch and a little extra P and Fa.

Same soup. Very different staying power and definitely more 😋

Changing everything at once is overwhelming and unsustainable.

Start by adding what helps to existing meals - protein, fibre and fats. Tiny upgrades really do add up.

One of the most common areas I work on with clients is cravings vs habits.

They can feel like shameful, invisible forcefields — quietly derailing us and taking the blame for what we’re told is “poor willpower”.

But cravings and habits aren’t the same thing.
A craving is a signal.
A habit is a pattern.

When we understand what’s actually driving our behaviour, we gain tools to work with it — not against it. And change becomes calmer, kinder, and far more effective.

It’s so much more than swapping cake for fruit or tea for willpower.

It’s about asking the right question in the first place...
If this resonates, I’ve unpacked it in my latest blog.

Habits and cravings can feel like invisible forcefields — quietly overriding our judgement and pulling us towards foods we didn’t plan to eat.But they’re not the enemy; they’re information.A craving is a signal.A habit is a pattern.And understanding this key difference determines how we can ...
