I've spent almost half of my life overweight, self concious, and full of self doubt

As a teenager, I binge ate and struggled with self confidence and this carried on right through my early 20's. I would yo-yo diet, binge eat, lose weight, regain more, promise to start again on Monday but then break that promise to myself over and over again. I tired all sorts of crazy diet fads, hired personal trainers, even did those shitty shake diets, but regardless of what I tried I never seemed to be able to keep the weight off. I remember hating getting ready for work in the morning because of the way I looked, I would get anxious about my weight when I went out with friends, I would try and aviod social events (especially things like going to the beach in summer), and eventually I realised just how much my weight was effecting my life and I said, "enough is enough"

i felt lost, unenergised, and embarrassed

I hit rock bottom...

My friends had stopped inviting me out because I always said no, my confidence and self-belief was at an all-time low, I was at least 25kg overweight, my relationship of 4 years was in tatters, and I was heavily depressed. I knew at this point that things needed to change and I knew that if I was going to turn my life around I needed to get a handle on more than just my diet and exercise. So, I set out on a mission to reinvent myself. I left the relationship I was in, I started actually learning about food and nutrition, I worked out to get strong rather than just to lose weight, I studied a tonne of personal development and mindset content, I hired a coach and invested money in myself instead of some crappy shake diet, and I set a new vision for who I was going to become. Shortly after, I swapped my corporate career for a role in the natural health industry and I started teaching group fitness classes before and after work. Pretty soon this led to personal training people and this is when I realised my that my own journey was far from unique and that in fact there were soooo many women out there who were going through exactly what I went through, they were overweight, they were lacking confidence, they had been on the yo-yo diet hampster wheel, they had tried the fad diets, and were lost, confused, and unsure where to find the right help.

and this is when my passion became my purpose...

I decided I would take my own learnings both personal and professional and I would set out to help women become their, fit, healthy & confident best. But.... I would do it in a way that would impact people well beyond just losing weight. I knew that for me the journey was as much a mental one as it was physical, and I saw very few people in the health and fitness space combining elements of personal development such as mindset and performance coaching, with proper nutritional coaching and exercise science. And this is where the Fit, Healthy & Confident program was born. I've taken the essential elements of mindset and personal performance, and combined those with the latest in nutrition and exercise science, and I then work 1 on 1 with each client to provide the level of support, guidance, and accountability that is actually required to achieve long term sustainable results. I've been running this program online for over 6 years now and the results have been mindblowing!

but the truth is... without my personal struggles i would have never been able to do what I do today...

Because of my own journey I have been able to really simplify things for my clients and I've been able to think outside the box to create a program that is proven to deliver results. I've helped clients lose over 25kg's at a time, I've helped busy mothers increase their energy and find themselves again, and I've helped women who were down and out regain their confidence and become their best. I'm super passionate about what I do, in fact, I genuinely love what I do! Every client I coach, every program I create, I do it to serve and help others improve their lives and I get a huge amount of fulfillment from helping women transform. I've got over 6 years of hands-on personal training and group fitness experience, I've been a student of nutrition and coaching for the best part of a decade, I have a diploma in health psychology, and most importantly I have proven results.
