In this episode, Paddy and Belinda sit down with Registered Dietician / Clinical Nutritionist and Trained Psychotherapist Valerie O’Connor ( Galway Nutrition & Therapy Clinic ⁠www.gntc.ie) for a calm, thoughtful conversation about food, nourishment, and looking after yourself in a more sustainable way.

We talk through what supportive nutrition actually looks like beyond diet culture, focusing on routine, fibre, hydration, food variety, and why food first matters more than supplements or extremes. Valerie shares practical, realistic guidance on eating well without restriction, fear, or perfectionism, especially during periods of weight change.

The conversation also touches on the psychological side of health, including self compassion, habit building, and how to move away from shame and all or nothing thinking. Rather than quick fixes, this episode centres on steadiness, kindness, and doing what genuinely supports long term wellbeing.

A reassuring listen for anyone who wants a healthier relationship with food and their body, without pressure or judgement.
