Let’s Change the Conversation
Uncovering the Weight Women Carry
In my forthcoming book, The Elephant in the Room, I explore why women are worth more than we weigh.
The Elephant in the Room isn’t just another book about body image or dieting. It’s the story of my own transformation—how I came to see myself and my relationship with my body in a completely different light.
Are you tired of the never-ending cycle of dieting and sick of social size-shaming?
From social size-shaming to the endless stream of dieting advice, women are constantly told how to look, eat, and live. But it’s not just about diets—women’s roles have consistently been undervalued compared to men, and larger ladies earn even less than their slimmer colleagues or heavier men.
Why is women’s worth still measured by how we look?
Women’s appearance is valued ahead of their achievements, with the media pushing the belief that beauty equals success, and the diet and beauty industries profiting from the pursuit of the latest look. Size discrimination continues to rise, largely unchallenged. It’s time to speak up and address the elephant in the room.
Let’s change the conversation. My book The Elephant in the Room challenges the diet myths and societal pressures we’ve been sold about body image, food, and success. Through this journey, we’ll uncover the real weight women carry, debunk diet culture, embrace mindful living, and confront the expectations that have defined us for too long.

Our three-part journey
-
Weight of Women
Women’s bodies are expected to do it all—nurture, grow, care, and adapt to the endless demands placed on us. Yet, we’re still judged by how we look, as though our value lies in appearance. It’s no wonder our bodies respond the way they do—it’s not just about weight it’s about letting go of measuring our worth by a number on the scale.
Despite all the diet advice we’re bombarded with, why doesn’t it bring us the fulfilment we crave?

Debunking Diets
If diets worked, why do we keep going back on them? The truth is, we know our bodies better than anyone else. As I explore in my book, The Elephant in the Room, we need to debunk the diet myths that keep us stuck in a cycle of shame and restriction. It’s not about what we eat, but how we nourish ourselves. Diets aren’t the answer—understanding what our body needs is.

Living Mindfully
Living mindfully means rejecting the belief that happiness comes from a slimmer future. It isn’t about following more rules—it’s about tuning into what your body needs, rather than chasing society’s expectations. Drawing on my love of yoga, I share practices that help you tune into your body’s inner wisdom and recognise your true worth.
