My fitness journey actually started quite late in life. I was once a notorious yo-yo dieter and was always signing up to some new workout challenge. After the birth of my last baby, I was determined to lose the weight fast! I signed up to an 8 week challenge that basically involved working myself into the ground on very little calories. Of course the weight fell off but at the same time I was starving, cranky, tired and worst of all - I destroyed my hormones resulting in amenorrhea. After a few months I realised I couldn't keep going and gradually began eating "normal foods" again. Of course over the next six months I managed to gain back all of the weight and then some!!

​

Fast forward a year and something finally snapped. I decided to join my local gym and got myself a personal trainer. I gradually gained confidence in the gym, in the weights room and not only lost 20kg in 6 months, but gained so much strength. My newfound passion for fitness was ignited. I knew that I needed to help others who are in the same vicious cycle that I was in for so long. I educated myself on counting macros and nutrition, watched hundreds of hours of exercise form videos online and then finally became a registered Personal Trainer, Accredited Nutritionist, Health & Wellness Coach, Human Movement Specialist and Pre & Post Natal Specialist Coach. My goal is to empower people - to not only educate and teach but to use my psychology background (yep, I studied that too!) to really delve into the why. Your past does not define your future. You CAN change your story and it's never too late to start!
