Eat Like An Adult with Josh Wood

This week I am joined by Josh Wood, a US-born, Tasmania-based behaviour change expert who somehow makes healthy living feel normal. You might know Josh from his brilliant TEDx talk on emotional eating, which has been shared far and wide, and for good reason. He’s got this wonderfully shame-free, common-sense approach to wellness, with a healthy dose of humour, which is always appreciated!

In our chat, we dive into everything from the surprisingly effective “Apple Test” for real hunger, to why perfection isn’t exactly perfect in itself! Josh explains why “good enough” is genuinely good enough, and he shares the nugget of wisdom that made his entire TEDx audience gasp.

We also get a sneak peek at Macro Masala, Josh’ new Indian-inspired cookbook full of big flavours and simple prep. If you’ve ever struggled with motivation, food guilt, secret fizzy-jelly stashes, or the all-or-nothing mindset, you’ll love this one.

He’s smart, sound, and refreshingly real. This conversation is just a reminder that small, conscious choices add up. Enjoy!
