Fit, Fabulous and Fearless with Alison Cork MBE

What does it really mean to feel at home in your body, your work and your life? In this episode of the Eat Nourish Love podcast, Caroline Cary is joined by Alison Cork, entrepreneur, author, broadcaster and a long-standing voice in lifestyle, home and wellbeing. Alison is known for her television work, national newspaper columns and six bestselling lifestyle and cookery books, and for spending over 25 years inspiring people to create homes that feel beautiful, nurturing and achievable, whatever their budget. As the founder of Home In The Country, Alison has been a pioneer of accessible interiors, healthy living and nature-led inspiration. In her fifties, she experienced a profound shift in her relationship with food, exercise and wellbeing, transforming her health and gaining a renewed sense of energy and clarity for what she calls her second act. That journey led to her book Fit & Fabulous Over Fifty, where she shares practical tools for rewiring midlife with health, joy and purpose. In this conversation, Alison reflects on homemaking as a feeling rather than a look, the realities of reinvention, and the habits that supported sustainable weight loss and strength in midlife. She talks openly about protein, strength training, ultra-processed foods, and why quick fixes cannot replace long-term care for the body. Alison also shares insight into her latest work, including the early stages of a new food project rooted in simplicity, nourishment and pleasure. Alongside her commercial career, Alison is also the founder of two not-for-profit organisations that support women to start and scale their own businesses, Make It Your Business and National Women’s Enterprise Week. This episode is a grounded and honest conversation about health as a foundation, food as connection, and the possibility of starting again at any stage of life.
