Expat Fit Mum

Let’s be honest — food is the hardest part.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re eating “healthy” but still not seeing results, this episode is going to flip the script.

Kara breaks down the real reasons food feels so hard as a busy expat mum — and gives you simple, practical strategies that actually work. From understanding hidden calories to using the plate method and building high-protein meals that fuel your body (without endl...

If you’ve ever looked in the mirror and barely recognised the woman staring back — this episode is for you.

In this deep and honest chat, Kara walks you through 7 powerful mindset shifts that helped her go from overwhelmed mum to strong, confident woman again — all without waiting for the “perfect time.”

You’ll learn how to rewrite limiting beliefs, reconnect with your identity, and build the structure that supports lasting c...

Think you’re failing because you lack motivation? Think again. 

In this episode, we unpack why most mums fall off track—not because they’re lazy—but because their plan doesn’t fit real life. From sick kids to travel chaos, Kara will show you how to ditch the “perfect plan” and create one that works *even on your worst weeks*. 

If you’re done starting over every Monday, this one’s for you.

Living in a new place is hard, especially when it comes to living outside your home country. If you don’t live overseas, you may live away from where you grew up and this will still hit home. Pun intended!

Homesickness, different foods, language barriers, and a busy schedule, with limited family support (where’s Gran when ya need her to babysit?!). This can take a toll on your health and body. Living away from home isn’t always ...

You’re juggling jet lag, kids, and a whole new culture. Fitness can feel like one more impossible task. In this episode, we share the exact place to start when time is tight, life is chaotic, and you’ve already tried “starting over” more times than you can count.

It’s easy to fall off track, and often we don’t even notice it happening.

Many of us get so fixated on the end goal that we overlook the journey itself. I know this might sound contrary to the usual goal-setting advice, including what I’ve said before about “Finding Your WHY!”

But here’s the twist...

If you’re only focused on the end goal—like checking the mirror and not seeing immediate physical changes—it can be disheart...

In the lead-up to doing IVF, getting pregnant, and 38 weeks of baking the boys (lol that sounds weird, but I’m rolling with it), I managed to gain 5 kilos. That’s 11 pounds. Argh!

I was beating myself up for the longest time about this. How did I allow myself to gain so much body fat? I’m a coach; I should know better!

But the thing is, there are a lot of factors to weight gain (and losing it). It’s not so black and white.

For years (since 1999), I’ve been training mums around the world on how to get healthy, fit, and regain their pre-baby bodies. And it’s been amazing!

But, I always felt a little bit like a fraud. Not because I didn’t believe I could get them in shape, but because I never had babies!

Now that I have newborn baby boys, I know what it’s like to be...

- too tired,

In this episode I bring Elisabeth on to discuss:
