If you’ve been thinking about getting a tattoo with your bestie, this is your sign 🌻

Sunflowers represent happiness, positivity, loyalty and always turning towards the light. We decided to split one sunflower in half, so we each have a piece of the same flower. A little reminder of a friendship that means the world to me. Always connected, always in each other’s corner 💛

I’m so grateful for this friendship, for all the laughs, the memories and having someone who just gets you. Some people make life that much better just by being in it, and I’m lucky enough to have one of those people as my best friend Anushka Bester 🥹🌻

A huge shoutout to Paul Macfarlane for the most amazing experience. Not only is he incredibly talented, but he made us feel so comfortable from the moment we arrived. The tattoos were quick, practically painless, and exactly what we wanted. He was so patient with all our little amendments and made sure we were happy with every detail. You can tell when someone genuinely cares about their work and their clients. If you’re looking for a talented tattoo artist who makes the whole experience a pleasure, Paul is your guy! We’ll definitely be back for more 🙏🫶

At some point, you have to decide that you’re worth the effort 💖

For me, choosing myself meant making some hard decisions. It meant changing habits I’d had for years, unlearning beliefs that had been ingrained in me, learning to put my health first, showing up on the days I didn’t feel like it and accepting that change doesn’t happen overnight.

I’m a single mom. I work four jobs to support my family. Life gets busy. There are days when you’re tired, when everyone needs something from you and when putting yourself last feels like the easiest option. I know that feeling.

But I also know what happens when you keep putting yourself on the back burner. Your health suffers. Your confidence takes a knock. You start believing that this is just how things are going to be.

I reached a point where I knew something had to change. I lost 45kg and reversed my insulin resistance, but the biggest change wasn’t just physical. It was realising that I was worth taking care of, too.

I’m not saying it’s easy. I’m saying you’re worth the effort it takes.

You don’t have to get everything right. You don’t have to wait for Monday, the beginning of a new month or the perfect moment. You just have to start making choices that move you closer to the person you want to be.

Choose yourself. Even when it’s hard. Especially when it’s hard 🤗

Tell me, what’s one thing you’ve been putting off doing for yourself? Do it today, not someday.

We’re in for a hot summer ☀️💛

I finally got to try the Granadilla Frio from the REVIVE | Daily Electrolytes x vida e caffè collab, and that sweet granadilla flavour with the salty hit of Revive is such a good combo 😍

Keto Fam, you know I’m all about keeping things low carb, so this one isn’t making my everyday keto menu. The carb count is too high for that, but I’ll happily save it for a flex day. One drink doesn’t undo your progress. It’s about knowing what works for your goals and making choices that fit your lifestyle 🍹

If you’re near Vida Café at Meyersdal Blue Crane Ridge, you can pop in and give it a try. They’ve also got the new Revive Litchi flavour in stock, plus the mixed flavour box if you need to try them all.

Have you tried the Granadilla Frio yet? I want to know what you think 👇💛

Keto Fam, what if your next step wasn’t to fast for longer, but to approach fasting differently? 💖

Perimenopause and menopause can bring changes in body composition, sleep, appetite and the way you experience your usual routines. If extended fasting isn’t suiting you, it’s worth exploring other approaches to metabolic health.

That’s the thinking behind my Fat Fast from 26 to 30 October, running alongside my It’s Not Me, It’s My Hormones programme.

For five days, we’ll focus on a high fat protocol using foods such as butter, lard, tallow, sour cream, avocado and olives.

The goal is to encourage deep nutritional ketosis while still consuming food and not placing more stress on your body.

I’ll guide you through the process, explain the reasoning behind it and help you understand what we’re aiming to achieve.

Want to join me?

Comment FAT FAST below or send me a DM, and I’ll share the details 💖

Don’t mind me, just getting my daily recommended allowance of people’s unsolicited opinions 🥑🥩😂

Come spend a day with me as a nutrition coach 🥑

Every day is different. Some go according to plan, some don’t. That’s ok. This journey has never been about perfection. Just making the best choices I can for my health everyday.

I lost 45kg and reversed my insulin resistance with keto and intermittent fasting, so yes, now I’m insufferable about it and I’m not sorry 😂

I’m this passionate because I know what this lifestyle can do, and there is nothing I love more than helping someone else get healthy.

Now I want your questions. Drop your most unhinged keto, carnivore or fasting question below and I’ll answer the best ones in my next reel 👀

Mental wellbeing support should be something you can reach for in everyday life, not something you only think about when you’ve reached breaking point.

That’s one of the things I like about what Momentum Medical Scheme is offering through the Multiply app.

Members have access to Wysa, an anonymous, private and non-judgmental 24/7 wellness coach that’s there whenever you need a place to start.

No appointment. No waiting room. No having to explain yourself to someone before you can begin. Just open the Multiply app and chat with Wysa.

Wysa can support you with things like stress, anxiety, sleep, negative thoughts, mindfulness, confidence and emotional resilience, making it a practical option for those everyday moments when you need a little support.

Mental wellbeing isn’t a straight line. Having support available when you need it can make reaching for help feel a little easier.

So check in with yourself today. Check in with someone you care about too. 💚
