Golden Tails & Trails | Canicross,Trail Running With Dogs & Weight Loss for Women
Welcome to Golden Tails & Trails — the dog podcast for women who want to feel healthier, happier and more connected through life on the trails with their dogs.
I’m SJ, a women’s fitness and Canicross coach, joined by my two golden retrievers, Skye and Daisy — your four-legged co-hosts bringing muddy paws, real life moments, and plenty of trail-side wisdom.
This podcast blends dog stories, outdoor adventures, and realistic wellbeing conversations for women who love walking, running, hiking, Canicross, and building an active lifestyle with their dogs. Whether you’re starting your first dog walk for fitness, exploring trail running, navigating menopause, improving your mindset, or simply looking for motivation to get outside, you’ll find encouragement here.
Each episode includes:
• real-life stories from the trails with Skye and Daisy
• fitness, weight-loss and motivation support for women
• Canicross and running-with-dogs guidance
• dog kit and gear reviews to help you and your dog adventure safely
• expert guests from the dog, fitness and wellbeing world
• honest conversations about womanhood, confidence, mental wellbeing and everyday life with dogs
You don’t need to be a runner.
You don’t need perfect motivation.
You just need a lead, a pair of trainers, and a dog who’s ready for adventure.
So come along with us — walking, jogging, running and rediscovering wellbeing one trail at a time.
Because sometimes the best therapy has four legs and a muddy tail. 🐾✨

Self-worth - Know your worth mumma, our daughters are watching!
Tuesday Mar 02, 2021
Tuesday Mar 02, 2021
Hey mumma!
First up bear with me sound wise... it is not perfect but stick with me till the end!
How do you feel about your self-worth?
Do you feel confident in who you are and what you stand for?
Following on from a documentary I watched the other week I felt frustrated to learn that young girls are being pressured to share intimate images of their body in the hope that boys will like them!
Come on ladies if we want to EMPOWER this younger generation it is down to us to help them know their worth and that starts with you!
Time to talk self-worth. Where does our sense of self come from?
Then if our sense of self is a bit shaky how can we work on it to be great role models for our daughters and the young women around us!
It starts with YOU!
Love and light

Sister friend you have got this and if you need some extra help and coachin drop me an email hello@networktoempowerher.com

Are you hungry or emotional eating?
Tuesday Feb 23, 2021
Tuesday Feb 23, 2021
Hey friend!
When I started talking emotional eating there was this huge resounding hell yeah that is me from my community so I decided to dig in a little deeper!
In the episode we identify if you are an emotional eater. Then we look at how to identify the difference between emotional eating and hunger.
We have all seen the film of Bridget Jone eating the contents of her fridge after she has gone through a break up. How many times have you done this with a tub of ice cream or a bar of chocolate?
Stay tuned for the next episode all about how identify your triggers and how to create strategies to help you manage emotional eating.
Also make sure you share this podcast in your IG stories for the opportunity to win the business planner and a 30 min coaching session with me via zoom. Competition closes 28th Feb 2021

Are you a lockdown emotional eater?
Thursday Feb 18, 2021
Thursday Feb 18, 2021
Do you ever catch yourself doing doing a Bridget Jones?
Spoon in the tub of chocolate spread trying to find comfort in food?
Lockdown life is pretty hard and I know it is taking its toll on us all.
Have you found yourself trying to find comfort in food to numb out the hard stuff you are dealing with right now? Do you find yourself reaching for the biscuits when your toddler is having a meltdown? ME TOO!!
Real talk eating our feelings is not going to solve our problems in fact it is more likely to give us more stress when our jeans no longer fit right!
As we move into the period of Lent it got me thinking and reflecting on my eating habits. As i was scoffing pancakes at chocolate spread into my face i realised i had been emotional eating and not really knowing it!
I share with you the strategies i use to keep my emotional eating in check.
We are in this together!
