  • #283 - Why Your Body Needs an Off-Season (Even if You Don’t Want One)
    2025/06/09

    If you’re an endurance athlete, weekend warrior, or someone who lives for their next big event, this one’s for you.

    In this episode, we dive into why skipping an off-season could be the very thing holding back your long-term progress. Because here’s the truth: staying in constant race-prep mode doesn’t make you tougher. It just keeps you tired.

    You’ll learn:

    • What actually happens to your body when you never take a break
    • Why always training hard = stalled performance and mounting injuries
    • The mental trap of “staying fit” and how it backfires
    • What a smart, productive off-season actually looks like (hint: it’s not just Netflix and naps)
    • How a pause now sets you up for better, stronger training later

    🚨 Still grinding with nagging pains or feeling stuck in a cycle of race > taper > repeat? It’s time to break that loop. I've got only a few 1:1 and group coaching spaces available for this month. Book a free assessment call to get started. Link’s in the episode description or at www.themegmethod.com or book here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and let’s have a chat.


    Your next season doesn’t start with another race. It starts with recovery.

  • #282 - The Snack Shelf
    2025/06/06

    If you’ve ever said, “I was doing fine until 3pm…” then this one’s for you.

    When most people think nutrition, they think meals. But where a lot of goals get derailed? Snacks. Not because snacks are bad but because they’re often unplanned, guilt-ridden, or disconnected from what you actually need.

    In this episode, I talk about:

    • Why cutting snacks isn’t the answer and what to do instead
    • How to set up a “snack shelf” that supports your goals without sucking the joy out of food
    • What makes a good snack (hint: it’s not just carrot sticks and discipline)
    • Why variety matters and how it can actually stop you from spiralling
    • How this one small habit helps you ditch the guilt and snack with intention

    This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being prepared. So you can feel better, stay on track, and stop standing in front of the fridge wondering what just happened.


    If you want help building a nutrition routine that actually fits your life, book a free discovery call at www.themegmethod.com or use the link in the episode description. Let’s build something that works for you.

  • #281 - The Dreaded Niggle
    2025/06/02

    That ache you’ve been brushing off? The tightness that shows up mid-run, or that annoying twinge after a lift? It’s not going to magically disappear when your schedule calms down. And ignoring it might be costing you more than you realise.

    In this episode, we dive into:

    • Why athletes and go-getters are the worst at listening to early warning signs
    • The difference between treating symptoms vs. solving the root cause
    • How your body works as a whole system and what that means for your mobility, performance, and pain
    • The emotional toll of injury (and how to navigate it without spiralling)

    This isn’t about adding more to your plate, it’s about working smarter, not harder. Because long-term strength doesn’t come from pushing through pain. It comes from listening, adjusting, and training in a way that supports your future, not just your next race.

  • #280 - Cruel Summer
    2025/05/30

    You know that moment - the dreamy vacation daydream, the doodled palm trees in your notes, the quiet promise to yourself that this summer might feel easier? And then… the changing room. The mirror. The pressure.


    In this episode, we talk about:

    • Why body image struggles don’t just “grow out” with age
    • How old beliefs and internalised messages shape the way we see ourselves now
    • What confidence actually looks like (hint: not perfection)
    • How we can start to rewrite the story we’ve been told about what we need to "earn" joy

    • If you’ve ever felt like you had to “fix yourself” before you could enjoy yourself, this one’s for you. You don’t need to wait for a new body to build a new relationship with it.

    💬 Book a free connection coaching call at www.themegmethod.com or via the link in the show notes. No pressure - just space to be heard, supported, and reminded that you are not the problem.

  • #279 - Stop Postponing Your Happiness
    2025/05/26

    How often do you catch yourself saying, “I’ll be happy when…”?

    This episode is your reminder that joy isn’t something you have to earn. It’s not reserved for when you hit the goal, lose the weight, or finish the to-do list. It’s available now and right here in the middle of the process.

    We talk about:

    • Why we delay pride, rest, and joy
    • How mindfulness (the doable kind) helps you access the now
    • The difference between celebration and complacency
    • Why being present isn’t a luxury, it’s a skill that makes progress actually feel good

    Whether you're chasing a big goal or just trying to stay grounded, this is your sign to stop running past your life and actually land in it.

  • #278 - What is pronation and why might it be the missing link to your pain?
    2025/05/23

    Struggling with stubborn pain in your knees, hips, or feet even though you stretch, strengthen, and do all the “right” things? This episode could be the game-changer. We're diving into pronation, a natural movement your foot should go through, but that most people either overdo or can’t access at all.

    Learn how improper pronation and limited ankle mobility (aka dorsiflexion) can lead to chronic pain, tightness, and compensation patterns throughout the body. From plantar fasciitis to back stiffness, the root cause may be starting lower than you think.

    We’ll break it down in simple terms, connect the dots between foot mechanics and full-body function, and show you how to start reclaiming natural movement, so you can train, walk, and live pain-free again.


    👇 Book your free movement assessment at www.themegmethod.com and let’s get to the root of what’s really going on.

  • #277 - When was the last time you really celebrated yourself?
    2025/05/19

    You’re great at pushing forward, showing up, hitting goals, doing the work. But when’s the last time you actually stopped to celebrate how far you’ve come? In this episode, we unpack why so many high-achievers skip self-acknowledgment and how that habit quietly robs you of motivation, fulfilment, and emotional balance.

    Whether it’s setting a boundary, resting when you need it, or simply trying again after a tough week. Those are wins. And they matter. Learn why your brain resists celebration, how it impacts your long-term progress, and how to start building a sustainable, values-aligned practice of internal acknowledgment.

    If you’ve ever felt like you're always on to the next thing, this episode will help you slow down just enough to see and celebrate the progress you’ve already made.

  • #276 - Why Do I Feel Lost After I Cross The Finish Line?
    2025/05/16

    You hit the goal, crossed the finish line, crushed the challenge... so why do you feel empty instead of elated? In this episode, we dive into the surprisingly common feeling of post-goal letdown and why it’s not a sign of failure, but a signal to go deeper.

    We explore how goals disconnected from your values and vision can leave you feeling flat, even when they look impressive on paper. You’ll learn the difference between ego-driven achievement and meaningful momentum, and how to start setting goals that truly resonate with who you are and who you're becoming.

    If you've ever asked, “Why don’t I feel how I thought I would?” This one's for you.

    Perfect for runners and goal-setters craving purpose, not just progress.
