In this episode of Untidy, Hannah and Matty catch up with Black Ferns legend Stacey Waaka, Olympic gold medallist, World Cup winner, stepmum, and all-round performance powerhouse to talk food, fuel, and feeding busy families.
Stacey gives a glimpse into life at full pace, and how she keeps herself and her whānau nourished through it all. They get into the reality of feeding kids who change their minds daily, the difference between eating for performance and just getting through the day, and why ‘perfect’ eating isn’t the goal.
There’s plenty of food nostalgia as they all revisit the meals that they’ll never forget from childhood, plus practical, no-fuss insights on fueling your body, building sustainable habits, and taking the pressure off mealtimes when life is already a lot.
We live for your DMs. Keep ‘em coming!
