This really hit home for me, Cath. I love the gentleness in your approach, especially the commitment to small, achievable changes instead of sweeping declarations. This is my reminder to pause and ask, “What does loving myself look like right now?” ❤️

Thank you Cath for sharing and shining a gentle, warm and curious light on this. To cut to the chase (as I do love my words 🤣) I have a very interesting relationship with sugar... the irony hits me hard as a dentist 😬🙈. Where am I? well I'm in a sort of "liminal sugar space" of reaching for my chocolate treats once my twins are in bed as a kind of comforting blanket reward that is filling some inner hole.

I am currently wresting with two "see-saw thoughts" which are " I really must eliminate this chocolate habit its wrecking my body!" to a more compassionate "everyone is doing something to get through motherhood" (the latter quoting your GYU podcast 🙏🏻).Accepting I may sit on this see-saw for a while!

Thank you for your words x
