Something To Talk AboutDannii Minogue on matchmaking, motherhood & her lowest momentWhen Dannii Minogue convinced her parents to let her try out for Young Talent Time at the age of seven, she had no idea of the impact it would have – not only on her life, but that of the entire family, too. Because back in the early ‘80s, Minogue was just another surname in the suburban phone book. Today, of course, it’s so much more than that. It’s Dannii. It’s Kylie. It’s disco and dancing and reality TV. It’s World Pride and Mardi Gras and being an ally. On this episode of Something To Talk About...

We have been indoctrinated with the importance of weight without any consideration for what that weight might consist of.If someone gave you a kilo of money as a gift it would make a huge difference whether it was a kilo of pennies, or a kilo of £20 notes right?Let's apply the same logic to our bodies, and while it may be harder to ascertain our body composition we m...

How can we change how we think about data and feelings to...

Getting to know your saboteurs.We did a quiz all about saboteurs, you can get it here https://assessment.positiveintelligence.com/saboteur/overviewThing about self sabotaging behaviours is they are not always what we want and don't always serve us. Thoughts can spiral out of control and keep us stuck in certain behaviour patterns. The idea of this quiz is to identify behaviour that may have kept you safe in the past, and may be useful now, but also to acknowledge when you need to engage your wiser self-talk and not stay in that moment.The key is making t...

If you are very muscular you could have a high BMI as muscle is more dense.Weight also does not indicate the high risk visceral fat held in a body.We did a bit of Googling to get some perspective on these risk factors an...

2023-10-1138 minThe Power of 30Reasons to Exercise (that aren't about what you weigh or how you look!)We've been wanting to do this one for a while!It's time to change how we talk about exercise (and weight loss), especially for women and even more especially for young girls. The association of weight with health, and weight with looking good, and the fact that if you are "slim" then you must be both healthy and fit are all falsehoods.One of the worst things about this aspect of diet culture is the fact it has led to women simply not exercising, and thus not getting all of the benefits exercise has to...

We have enough external influences trying to bury our self-esteem deep in the ground without doing it to ourselves.They key to being kinder to yourself is probably to get practicing, practice NOW, ready for when you need i...
2023-08-3030 minThe Power of 30What Does Success Look Like?In this episode we're taking a close look at what success looks like - sometimes before we decide we've failed we need to decide what success actually looks like FOR US. We're asking:What do you consider success?What have you succeeded at in life that you would celebrate?So many people, especially women are unable to see or celebrate their own success. We’re conditioned that it’s only one way - the BIG way! The big promotion of the big weight loss.We need to remember the small successes and achievements along...
2023-08-1632 minThe Power of 30The Problem with Goals; A Books and Bones; Motivational Book Club episode!We are big fans of goal setting, we talk about it a LOT because it's something so many people don't do, especially in our world. Or their goal is simply a number on the scale (or rather off it), something that's over simplified and doesn't reflect the actions needed, how often they should be repeated and over what time.So are we about to back track over all of that?No, but we're very glad we chose the book Atomic Habit by James Clear as our first book club book because he has brought to...

But were they are the top because they wore a tracker, or did they wear a tracker because they already do a lot of...
2023-08-0226 minThe Power of 30Getting Started with Habits - A Books & Bones; Motivational Book Club EpisodeOur first "proper" episode of our new season is a Book Club Episode about the incredible book that is Atomic Habits by James Clear.We're talking about getting started with habits the right way, as opposed to getting started and falling by the way side, or feeling like we have to rely on will power or discipline (see pages 60-64).If you want to make changes in your life, you need to be casting votes for yourself, grasping at every piece of evidence that you can do the thing, or become “the person that".

Then the cogs started dropping into place and the wheels started turning and there seemed to be so much to catch up on.Most importantly for us, we had a business to rebuild, otherwise all our efforts would have been for...

These are the assumptions that lead us to making some horrible mistakes because the truth is, most of the knowledge we have is gained from people trying to sell us stuff. Not only that, but when you struggle with your weight (or your finances, or being organised for example), and you see other people seemingly getting success and making it look easy you start searching for the answers.

It's a process!So, this week we had a few quotes we wanted to share with...

We hope this keeps you entertained through lock down - thank you so much for your feedback about our Comp Prep Episode and contributing to this one too with your stories!
2021-08-271h 31The Power of 30Food and Mood - Part 1 (probably!)We know this is a really important topic but we weren't sure where we wanted to go with it. We already talked about comfort eating in episode 18 Comfort Eating; you're doing it wrong! but we knew there was more, much more.So here's the start, and we talk generally about how you can eat for your mental wellbeing, the effects of eating nutritional on how we deal with difficult situations and emotions and of course, the importance of hydration. We've got some more episodes planned as a result of this conversation, this is just a toe dip...

2021-08-211h 06The Power of 30Your Top 5 Excuses - overcome! Reasons vs Excuses Part 5We asked you for your top excuses and today we're getting them out in the open, and, well, debunking them! Don't think we don't understand though, we really do and we're definitely guilty of all of these. We're going to give it to you straight though, they're invalid. You do need the right approach and the right mindset though so listen in to hear the critical reasoning we use to overcome them and make sure we get done what we set as a goal and commitment.If you've missed out on the other parts of this mini-series...
2021-08-1835 minThe Power of 30Alibi-itis - Reasons vs Excuse part 2Alibis are the next level of excuse, they are literally our alibi, our proof, that we were not able to act on our goals or our commitments. In this episode Coach Sall and Coach Dannii talk through how a "good" alibi will keep you firmly stuck just where you are and why you might actually choose that.The quote referenced is from social and moral philosopher Eric Hoffer. He wrote " There are many who find a good alibi far more attractive than achievement, for an achievement does not settle anything permanently. We still have to prove that...
2021-07-2834 minThe Power of 30Reasons vs Excuses Part 1This week we are getting into the difference between a reason and an excuse when it comes to not doing the things we committed to, or wanted to do, or said (maybe only to ourselves) that we would do.Often our own reasons are valid but we can easily spot someone else's excuses. Sometimes our excuse was a legitimate reason once upon a time, and now we cling to it so that we don't have to feel the discomfort of the change we are seeking.Excuses are about abdicating or absolving ourselves of responsibility. They...
2021-07-2134 minThe Power of 30Let's drop our BMI (like a piece of rubbish...!)This week Coach Dannii and Coach Sall wade through the nonsense that is BMI and encourage everyone to drop it, and by drop it we mean, discard it. Let us tell you why this number has no value in your world and we shouldn't be judging ourselves (or others) by it and we certainly shouldn't let anyone else judge us by it either.All the details of our Kofi account are below so if you want to be part of our journey to help more women, check it out - we thank you.www.ko-fi.com...
2021-07-1434 minThe Power of 30Hydration - stop withering!We mostly know we should be drinking more water. Some days we might even manage it, but our conversations with our members at Curves Ilkeston show that mostly we are just not drinking enough. So, Coach Dannii and Coach Sall decide to get into it, and we should warn you, they're taking no prisoners. Water, after all, is essential to life and while you might still be alive, not drinking enough means your body is having to prioritise sustaining life over other tasks such as, I don't know, fat burning, digestion, temperature control....Check out Coach Dannii's...
2021-07-0738 minThe Power of 30Chew Your Words!This week's episode is about the words you choose around food. Using words like treat, bad, good, indulge or guilt free can be damaging to our relationship with food. Coach Dannii and Coach Sall ask "Why do we talk about food in moral terms?" - this question was asked by author Lizz Shumer in this blogpost for Good Housekeeping and we thought it was a great topic for conversation. *WARNING* In this episode we talk a LOT about ICE CREAM, using food as rewards, treats and comfort eating.You can listen to our episode about 3...
2021-06-3035 minThe Power of 30We're changing how you talk about "Healthy Eating"We're changing how you talk about "Healthy Eating", and if we change how you talk about it, we'll likely be able to change how you feel about it, and even how you do it!We know from the many, many conversations we have with our members that what people think about healthy eating, is likely a few miles off from the truth. We've been told what healthy eating looks like by people in charge of large marketing budgets, they've even told us how to feel about it. We're turning that on it's head today with a conversation...
2021-06-1629 minThe Power of 30The tale of the 3 digestives!This week we give you an insight into Coach Sall's eating habits - and yes, that involves 3 digestives. You might be surprised by what she has to say about them, and the effect they can have on her eating throughout the day. After 15 years of working hard on her nutrition it's clearly still easy to slip up and have regrets.If you really want to know how to dodge the biscuit tin, the doughnuts at work, the over indulgence at celebratory meals or the secret eating then this is just the tip of the iceberg. We talk...
2021-06-0927 minThe Power of 30Snack-tastic - why we love snacking and you should too!Snacking is a much maligned concept that, in actual fact can do wonders for your metabolism, your sense of well being, your energy levels, your sleep and your weight loss efforts.We are huge fans of snacking but it needs to be done wisely and that can be tricky. We get in to the whys and the wherefores to hopefully convince you, you need to establish a snacking habit. You can read more on our blog post here, and download your FREE Nutritional Snacking sheet here to get you started. If you've got questions you can message...
2021-06-0230 minThe Power of 30Let exercise into your life Part 2 - 5 things that stop us from starting.We thought we should get Part 2 out there as soon as possible because we're here to help people as much as we can. We realise these might not apply to you, but if they help you understand where others are coming from, you might be able to support and encourage them better.The first 5 things that stop people starting we spoke about last week were; time, other commitments, a belief that exercise is boring, self conscious about how they look and too tired. (If you missed part 1 - listen here!)This week we talk about 5 m...
2021-05-2633 minThe Power of 30Let exercise into your life - 5 things that stop us from starting!This is a part one because we only had time for 5 things, so there will be another 5 coming soon!We're here to help you see things differently, to offer as much experience as possible and we've worked with literally hundreds of women to get out of their own way and let exercise into their lives.The top 5 things that stop people from starting are; time, other commitments, a belief that exercise is boring, self conscious about how they look and too tired.Hear what your Coaches have to say about those - it...
2021-05-1931 minThe Power of 30Comfort eating... you're doing it wrong!This episode is all about food and mood, but not how you think. The fact is, eating nutritiously will put you in a good mood, help you sleep better, equip your body to deal with whatever life throws at you and keep you away from all the stuff you think you need will power to avoid.So many people are undernourished and don't even realise it, hungry and don't realise it and it's time for change.We are only scraping the surface with this one as eating nutritionally is a massive topic but we do...
2021-05-1230 minThe Power of 30What's holding you back?"An assumed constraint is a belief you have, based on past experience that limits your current and future experiences" Ken Blanchard This is how elephants are kept in captivity, they're tied to a pole when they are young and unable to do anything about it. They learn they cannot escape the pole, so even when they are a fully grown 6 tonne elephant, they believe they can't pull away from the pole to freedom.When you have negative self talk about something, when you feel you do not have direct authority or power, if you feel...
2021-05-0536 minThe Power of 30Rewards - educating Coach Sall!Rewards can play an important part in motivation and especially in behaviour change. Despite understanding how they work Coach Sall has always struggled to implement them in her own life. Why? Do rewards really work? What do you use as rewards? Coach Dannii takes matters into her own hands to explain how rewards work and as usual they get deep into the processes, alternatives and ideas for rewards.Let us know if rewards work for you and what you reward yourself with. Why do you think it works? Have you got any advice or ideas for Coach...
2021-04-2832 minThe Power of 30Coach Sall on the spot - 10 Q&A's!This week Coach Dannii puts Coach Sall on the spot with 10 of the most common questions you are all asking! We talk about the answers to... losing the muffin top, what's the best diet to follow, what to eat before and after a workout, what days should you workout and much more.If you've got a questions then email us coaches@curvesilkeston.co.uk and we'll get on it!All the details of our Kofi account are below so if you want to be part of our journey to help more women, check it...
2021-04-2129 minThe Power of 30Treat your mental and physical health as one!This week your Curves Coaches get into the difference between mental and physical health, or rather, the fact that we need to treat them as one. While the symptoms of each may vary, they have a huge impact on each other with linked risk factors. We want to start leading with the benefits of exercise on your mental health because you will notice those almost immediately, giving you the encouragement and motivation to carry on until you notice the physical benefits which tend to take a bit longer.We get into the fact that weight is not...
2021-04-1429 minThe Power of 30Quality downtime has an end!In this week's episode Coach Dannii and Coach Sall talk about the importance of rest, and the role it plays in Strengthening your body. Then we get to the real topic; quality down time and it's important in keeping you energised, recharged and your motivation renewed.To be quality downtime it MUST have an end, just as you can't exercise all day, you can't rest all day either. We must take care to ensure we get quality down time, the kind that means our thoughts wander all over the place and that we emerge from feeling refreshed...
2021-04-0730 minThe Power of 30The problem with complimentsWe're starting a campaign.... to give compliments freely, accept them gracefully and encourage others to do the same.What do you say when someone gives you a compliment? "Thanks", or do you brush it off? Do you want to make excuses? Do you want to play it down? And more importantly why? Compliments are rarely given for any reason except that it's nice, it's reactionary, they are usually given generously. Let's assume that's the case, and so we should accept with the same spirit. It's NOT a gift exchange, you are not obliged to return them.
2021-03-3134 minThe Power of 30Stop Multi-tasking your Health and FitnessI reckon most people don't even realise they're doing this, you're just trying really hard to get fit, lose weight, be happy etc etc. It just occurred to me the other day that everyone needs to chose one thing, and if that's the only thing you do but you do it well, then you will reap the rewards.This week I talk to Coach Dannii about what mutli-tasking your health and fitness looks like, why it happens and how to tune out the noise and the nonsense. I guarantee you are being distraction from what is your...
2021-03-2431 minThe Power of 30Failing part 2 Be afraid to be remain the sameWe thought the topic of failure was such an important one we should talk about it again, and you can listen as we get REALLY REALLY excited! It's funny because when we have these conversations they aren't planned or rehearsed, and each one changes us, so sometimes, after the fact we find we have more to say.The thing is, when it comes to improving your health, fitness, your well being, there is no failing, only not doing. And if you're not doing, then you'll remain the same. And isn't that the same as failing? If you're...
2021-03-1729 minThe Power of 30Motivation beyond weight lossThis week's episode is in response to a couple of questions sent in by listeners; it's all about keeping motivated either when you don't have a weight loss goal, or when you have achieved your weight loss goal.
