With my programmes I look to help you improve your strength, boost your energy levels, reduce anxieties, increase your confidence and above all, take control of your journey! I offer one-on-one coaching, personal training (can also do small groups/couples), Pilates classes, mobility workshops and corporate wellbeing sessions. I have a couple of free/low cost programmes to follow as well.

🤸If you want more energy in midlife, stop doing these three things first.

Stop pushing through every dip in energy. Your body isn’t failing — it’s signalling.
Stop skipping meals or grabbing sugar to “get by”. It spikes and crashes your hormones.
Stop saying yes to everything. Overcommitment is one of the biggest energy drains for midlife women.

When you remove the drains, your natural energy comes back!!

I’ll be talking about simple, sustainable ways to do this in my free April webinar — comment ENERGY and I’ll send you the link when I open registrations.

We have a rule whereby our daughter can't have her phone in her room overnight so she has to charge it in ours!

She's super stealthy in the morning...comes in, grabs her phone and goes back to bed. Blink and you miss it.

This empty phone cable is the only way we can tell she's awake 😂

👀People are NOT watching you at the gym (or in a class)! I promise you.

They’re too busy looking at themselves in the mirror, being lost in a podcast while on the cross-trainer or concentrating on what foot to put where in a fitness class.

Unless you make a fool of yourself flying off the back of a treadmill and landing at someone’s feet, I doubt anyone will be watching.

Confidence tip: Pick one tiny win to focus on—your breath, your form, your next rep. When your brain has a job, it stops worrying about everyone else!

🙃Try these 3 tests to check your balance!

Balance naturally changes in midlife, often before we notice. These three tests highlight where you are right now — and where a little focused practice could make a big difference

Try these 3 tests and if you’re a bit wobbly….then come back and check out my exercises to train your balance:
1) Stand with feet together, cross arms over chest, close eyes and hold for 7 secs
2) Stand with feet in tandem (on a tightrope), arm across chest, close eyes and hold for 7 secs each leg
3) Stand with one foot lifted, arms across chest, eyes closed and hold for, you guessed it 7 secs each leg

If the gym feels intimidating….don’t let it! You belong there as much as anyone else.

BUT, I do appreciate it can be somewhat daunting. Even I feel that nervousness when I go to a new one. My top tip is to get a gym induction – having someone show you where everything is and how to use the equipment will help it feel more familiar.

One better would be to have a PT actually take you through a programme so you know exactly where to go, what weights and equipment to use.

There are always going to be gym bro’s that look scary, but honestly they’re just looking at their flexed biceps and not at you!! 😉

If you’d prefer to ease into a big gym, speak to me about boosting your confidence in my garden studio first!

💥Saying no does not make you selfish.
➡️It makes you sane.

Peri-menopause is already demanding more from your body, your energy, your nervous system.

You do not need extra drains on top.

The REFRAME.....
When you say NO to something that doesn’t serve you, you’re saying YES to your sleep, your stress levels, your training, your mental health.

You don’t owe a long explanation.

You don’t need to soften it with apologies.

“No, that doesn’t work for me right now” is a complete sentence.

If someone is uncomfortable with your boundary, it usually means they benefited from you not having one in the past!!

Midlife isn’t about doing more.

It’s about doing what actually matters — and protecting your energy like it’s non-negotiable.

Because honestly, it is. 🥰

🤪Personal training can maybe seem a little intense, and classes and the gym may seem a bit chaotic and well, impersonal. So, I have a great INBETWEEN with my small group training sessions at my garden studio in Henleaze.

🥰As it’s just for 3 women per session, you get the personalisation but without feeling too much in-the-spotlight and you’ll get the fun, social element, but without the noise and craziness of a group class.

Come and make new friends and let’s do this together.

💥I have space in my Monday 11am and Tuesday 6.30pm sessions. Speak to me to work out if it’s something you’d like

Oh and I still have my birthday offer running so if you sign up before the end of March you get 50% off your first month. Following months £110 pm for a session per week. Quote BDAY50 when you chat with me

💫These are my non-negotiables as a midlife peri menopausal woman

💪Strength training – so important for building muscle and help prevent bone density dropping
🍗Protein, again for those muscles (this will help with your weight too if that’s an issue) and fibre, the forgotten nutrient is so important for our gut health and ensuring we’re healthy inside and out
💤Calming bedtime routine – so much happens when we sleep, so if we’re getting bad quality sleep or struggling in any way, our mind and body are just going to end up running on fumes. Having a regular routine will help you nod off easier.
🧎Mobility – not just for old people. It’s perfect for helping ward off aches and stiffness and just keeping us feeling agile and energised.
🧘Rest properly – and no that doesn’t mean sitting on the sofa scrolling your socials. It means truly relaxing and letting go of everything.

❤️Want help with any/all of these? DM me to chat through the options

😐️How often do you say no? Are you a people pleaser?

Nothing wrong with pleasing people obviously, but don't let it be at your own detriment. As women, we do tend to lean towards helping others and many of us have children, partners and parents that need our attention, but it can often mean we put their needs before our own.

This is your sign to think about saying no to protect your own energy.

Instead of blithely agreeing to helping out on a PTA stall, to baking a cake for a charity day at work, to going out on a boozy brunch with your uni mates....think about it. Does it bring you joy? Are you excited about the activity?

If it's a no or you're a bit meh about it, simply say NO.

'No' can be a complete sentence. It may be difficult, but you honestly don't need to give a reason. Us midlife women have done so much crap that we've not really wanted to do over the years, that we actually deserve a break!

What can you say 'no' to to free up some energy this week?

Sometimes the mental and physical load gets too much and you have to just collapse on the floor!! 🤣

Why not make it into a game and see how long it takes someone to notice you?! How long until you hear 'muuuuuuummmmmm'
