Andrea Troughton
Personal Trainer, Holistic Health Coach, Author & Speaker I love helping clients improve their lifestyles and their self-esteem.

I believe that your body truly is a work of art, and it is deserving of your love. I want to help people make physical activity a regular part of their lives, by helping them to find activities that bring them joy, while also working toward their health and fitness goals. I believe in educating my clients on how to nourish their bodies and make healthful food choices, while still enjoying and appreciating the foods that they eat. Health and wellness is a way of life, and enjoying the process and finding your personal balance is key.

I started my blog as a way to get back into writing consistently again after my book was published, and like “Choose Your Discomfort”, a lot of what I share on my blog is personal.

Writing has always been therapeutic for me. It allows me to express myself and to work through issues and ideas. I write about my life, my mental health, my healing, and my learning. I also write about my work, which feels just as personal since my career was built by my own pursuit of health, healing, and happiness.

2025 was the first full year of my blog, and I shared a monthly series about ADHD and my experience navigating the process of diagnosis and treatment. It was an emotional year, but ultimately a wonderful one, and I’m ready to shift gears.

This year, I’m allowing myself to explore more broadly. You’ll still see plenty about me and my journey, but you can also expect content about:
⭐️ Movement and exercise, food and eating, and other self care practices
⭐️ Somatics and body-based mental health strategies
⭐️ Intersections between health and wellness, and social circumstances
⭐️ And other musings of a body neutral, trauma informed, health and fitness coach with a passion for accessible wellness

You’re always welcome to read along.🧡

Bad body image days happen.
Even to people who’ve done a lot of healing. Even to people who are confident most of the time.

On those days, your body still deserves care.

Body positivity is often framed as something simple, as just deciding to love your body all the time. But in reality, a healthier relationship with your body doesn’t require constant love. It can be built through compassion, care, and gratitude, practiced over time.

You deserve that.🧡

I’m so grateful to introduce one of the incredible facilitators who will be supporting Self Care Day: Release & Recenter 🧡

Mika Ennis is a Doctor of Acupuncture and Registered Acupuncturist with over 10 years of clinical experience. Her work is rooted in a deep respect for the body’s innate ability to heal, blending Western and Eastern medicine in a way that feels both grounded and deeply intuitive. Her approach is thoughtful, compassionate, and shaped by extensive clinical training, including time studying in Zhengzhou, China.

During Self Care Day, Mika will be supporting our Rest & Regulate: Guided Meditation with Gentle Acupuncture session, offering a calm, nurturing experience designed to help your nervous system settle and your body soften into rest.

It’s truly an honour to have her as part of this day, and I cannot wait to experience all that she’ll bring to the space.

You’ll be guided through movement and mobility, somatic healing practices, meditation, and gentle acupuncture, all offered through a trauma-informed, body-neutral lens. You’ll also be nourished with a plant-based brunch from and leave with practices you can carry into your everyday life.

The pressure to change your body or exercise routine can be loud this time of year.

Yes, goals can be great and growth wonderful, but January 1st is just another day. You are worthy as you are right now.
If you desire change, do it for you, and do it in your own time 🧡

26/12/2025

You spent the holidays, and probably many other days, caring for others. It's time to prioritize yourself 💜

Self Care Day is about more than setting aside a few hours to prioritize yourself. It's about setting yourself up for continued self care and stress management long after the day is done.

💡 Early bird tickets are on sale NOW! Save 15% when you get yours before January 25th.
