Meet Natasha, a body transformation coach who helps women improve their physical and mental wellbeing, with lived experience supporting disordered eating, body dysmorphia, and confidence rebuilding. She is also an author, podcaster, Substack writer, and competitive powerlifter. In this episode, she unpacks how she went from deep unhappiness and panic attacks to building a life rooted in strength, confidence, and purpose.

You’ll hear how years in a high-pressure teaching role led to insomnia, binge eating, painful periods, and a growing sense that she had disappeared inside her job. Tash shares the moment her brother challenged her to make a change, why weight training became the escape hatch she didn’t know she needed, and how the gym helped her rebuild her confidence from the inside out.

If you have ever felt trapped in a job, weighed down by stress, or like your life has become smaller than it should be, this conversation will hit hard.

We break down:

✅ Why stress can show up physically in ways many women ignore

✅ How body confidence can unlock self-respect and better boundaries

✅ The dangerous cycle of people-pleasing in teaching and other caring professions

✅ Why saying no can be the first step toward changing your life

✅ How bodybuilding and powerlifting became tools for self-reinvention, not just fitness

In this episode, Eleanor is joined by Janie Frampton for a powerful and deeply honest conversation about change, fairness, and the courage it takes to challenge the status quo.

Janie’s story spans an extraordinary career: becoming the second woman to referee in the men’s professional game in England, serving as one of only a handful of women senior managers at the FA, and spending a decade working with FIFA across World Cups. But this episode is about far more than football.

Janie reflects on the realities of being a woman in a male-dominated environment, the importance of emotional intelligence and communication, and why progress depends not just on representation, but on a genuine shift in mindset. The conversation moves beyond sport into wider society, touching on education, media, leadership, parenting, and the way young people are shaped by the adults and institutions around them. Janie speaks candidly about the need to “de-genderise” decision-making, to stop hiding behind labels, and to focus instead on ability, character, and contribution. She also shares why she believes change doesn’t begin with grand gestures, but with the everyday choices we make in how we speak, listen, hire, lead, and care for others.

If you care about women in sport, leadership, equality, community, or simply the power of one person to make a difference, this episode will leave you thinking long after it ends. Listen in for an inspiring conversation about courage, fairness, and the kind of change that starts when we decide to see people properly.
