Everyone’s out here saying, “I wish I started powerlifting earlier”… and I just laugh.

From the late 2000’s to the mid 2010’s were a full-on adventure: underground raves, secret warehouse parties, all nighters at house parties, and yes, a fake ID that got me everywhere (sorry dad). I lived loud, pushed limits, and made memories no gym could ever give me.

If I’d been lifting back then, I would’ve missed it all. And honestly? Those wild years are why I can walk into my 30s and lift heavier, move stronger, and take up space like I own it.

The chaos taught me resilience. The nights of reckless fun taught me grit. And now? I combine that life experience with every barbell, every PR, every session.

Your past isn’t a regret. It’s your fuel. The party girl made me alive. I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Leah is now sitting in the u90s — a number she hasn’t seen in years.

What changed? Not a “perfect” diet. Not restriction.
Just consistent shifts in how she eats, how she fuels her sessions, and how she supports her training outside the gym.

The result? She feels stronger, healthier, and more in control than ever 🖤

If you want support with your training, nutrition, and building habits that actually last.

I’m taking on new coaching clients.
DM me “STRONG” and I’ll send you the details.

“You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.”

But what if everyone in your circle only talks about numbers, totals, or how hard they’re grinding?

No wonder it’s easy to forget there’s more to you than how much you can lift.

Find people who remind you that progress isn’t only measured in PBs — it’s in the way you carry yourself, set boundaries, rest, explore, and rediscover who you are outside the gym.

Because strength isn’t just what you do under a barbell. It’s who you become when you step away from it.

You can chase numbers and still be a good human.
You can be competitive and still clap for others - even when they’re your direct competition.

Strength isn’t about proving you’re better - it’s about who you become while chasing better.

Because putting someone down or being rude at a comp doesn’t make you strong… it just makes you a 🍆

Don’t let a “good” or “bad” session decide your worth or your mood.
You’re allowed to have both - a rough day in the gym and still be proud of the effort you showed up with.

Remember why you started: this is something you chose to do because you love it.
It’s a hobby - don’t let ego take that away from you.

Lift hard.
Stay humble.
Be kind.
That’s what real strength looks like.

For a long time, my whole identity revolved around the gym. How couldn’t it, I worked and ran my businesses from one.

Training, lifting, pushing for that next PB - it gave me purpose, direction, and confidence when I needed it most.

But somewhere along the way, I started to realise I was only seeing myself through one lens, of how much I lifted, how disciplined I was, how consistent I could be.
And when I wasn’t training, or life pulled me away from that structure, I felt like I’d lost a part of who I was.

Here’s what I’ve learned:
You can love training deeply - and still make space for the rest of you.
Because you’re not just a lifter. You’re a whole person with layers, interests, and a life outside of the gym that deserves just as much energy.

Strength isn’t only about showing up for your sessions. It’s about how you show up for yourself when you’re not training. This can show up in how you rest, connect, play, and grow.

Lifting can be the thing that grounds you, but it shouldn’t be the thing that defines you.

When you start exploring who you are outside the gym - the hobbies you enjoy, the people you connect with, the small glimmers you find in daily life - you start to build a stronger foundation than any barbell could ever give you.

There’s the version of me that walks the dog at sunrise, that listens to music just because it feels good, that loves to cook, laugh, read, and just be.

Strength training will always be part of who I am - it taught me resilience and shaped the way I show up for myself.

Discovering who I am outside of the gym, been a whole new kind of growth 🖤

Yeah I f-ing love powerlifting.
But it’s not my whole identity.

In the beginning, it definitely was.
I was the strong girl.

I put every thought. Every goal. Every part of how I saw myself was based around numbers and a barbell.

Then when I was struggling with the worst of my Endometriosis, and after I had my Endometriosis surgery, I was lost. I went through my recovery not being able to lift heavy sh*t.

I realised that the barbell and numbers weren’t the things that defined me. Yes, I wanted to get back to competing as it’s been a huge part of my life - but it shouldn’t be the only thing that defines you.

Here’s the truth: when your entire sense of self is tied to your sport, your results, or your total - you lose perspective FAST.

You start chasing perfection instead of progress.
You try to put through injuries instead of just rebuilding.
You forget that strength is something you build, not something you are.

Powerlifting is a tool - one that teaches you discipline, resilience, and confidence.
But remember it’s not who you are. It’s what you do to become better at who you are.

You’re a whole human - strong, emotional, messy, powerful, complicated.

You’re allowed to love it fiercely and still be more than it ❤️‍🔥

If you can step off that platform and still feel proud of the human behind the lifter - that’s the real strength.
