Starting a family should be one of the sweetest and most sacred moments of your life 🤍
But for some, it doesn’t come so easily. Many women feel like failures when they don’t conceive in the first few months of trying, and that underlying chronic stress can actually lower fertility.

Easier said than done, right?

If you’re trying to conceive, here are a few gentle tips to help support your fertility:

1️⃣ Reduce plastics in your life, they can interfere with hormones. Swap to stainless steel drink bottles, glass coffee cups, wooden chopping boards etc.
2️⃣ Avoid artificial fragrances, choose natural beauty, body and cleaning products as much as possible.
3️⃣ Manage stress, it’s one of the biggest hormone disruptors. Gentle movement, breath-work, mindfulness and hobbies that fill your cup can make a world of difference.
4️⃣ Prioritise nutrition, work with a nutrition professional to ensure you’re eating the right foods (and enough of them).

If this feels like your story, you are not alone. 💛
If you’d like support on your journey, like, follow or DM/email to book a consultation. Because you deserve to live your dreams 🤍✨

✨ To prevent many diseases, you need at least 2½ hours (150 mins) of moderate to intense exercise per week (heart rate increased and breaking a sweat).

For years, I’ve averaged around 3–4 hours a week, a mix of training, yoga, walks, and movement I love.

But this past year, training for my black belt in Taekwondo, that number has jumped to 7–7½ hours of moderate to intense exercise weekly.
(That’s not even counting gentle yoga or long dog walks!) 🥋💪

And here’s what might surprise you 👇

1️⃣ I haven’t lost weight, in fact, I gained about a kilo over winter.
2️⃣ My appetite increased, some days I get so hungry I sneak in an extra meal (or two 😅).
3️⃣ My sleep improved, I fall asleep faster and sleep more deeply than ever.
4️⃣ My pants got tighter, not from shrinkage in the washing machine … but my quads just grew! (These muscles are hungry 🔥)

On rest days, I’m bursting with energy. One day I took my dog for a “walk in the rain” and ended up running for 20 minutes… and I’m not a runner!

What blows me away the most is that I’m 40, I’ve always been fit, but I’m still surprised by how strong and capable I’ve become in midlife.

Sometimes even the hardest goals are achievable with the right mindset.
Consistency pays off.
Rest matters.
It’s never too late to challenge yourself.

Yes, there were tired, sore, unmotivated days.
Yes, I took two full weeks off when I got COVID, and yes I had to modify when I was injured. But I kept going. And that’s where the magic happens.🌟

✨ Recover. Replenish. Restore. ✨

Today I’m taking it easier after a full-on, physical weekend. I’ll still do some admin + wellness plans, but I’m slowing down, because it’s much easier to prevent burnout than recover from it.

So many of my clients around my age deal with burnout or adrenal fatigue. When you’ve pushed your body too far, recovery becomes slow and frustrating. But giving yourself a pause, even just a day, helps your body:

🌿 Shift from fight-or-flight (sympathetic nervous system) into rest-and-digest (parasympathetic nervous system).
🌿 Rebalance hormones and energy levels.
🌿 Heal and restore, instead of constantly running on empty.

Remember, healing can only happen when we allow the body to rest. Taking breaks isn’t laziness, it’s essential self-care.

💌 Like, follow, and DM to book your appointment to get your life back in balance so you can feel your best.
