My Story

I’ve always valued exercise, but for a long time my relationship with it was rooted in trying to fix my body be production and achieve. Rest felt guilty. 

​

It wasn’t until I found myself in burnout with an inflamed body and a plethora of PCOS/PMOS symptoms by my late twenties that something had to change. I could no longer keep up. I was confused and lost because while I was lean, running PB's and able to keep up in HIIT classes - I was mentally heavy, in the worst health of my life. 

​

With the help of my now husband, along with my own research, I decided to pause high intensity cardio and try something else. I loved working out, but something had to change. I was anxious - but equally it felt right amongst the fear. My husband had been lifting weight in our local gym for some time and was feeling amazing benefits so I thought - let's give that a go for a short while , I can always return to faster paced workouts when I feel better. 

​

It's been 3 years since those dark days and never have i turned back and never has my health been better including the pregnancy of our first child. 

Building strength began the most beautiful (long-overdue) relationship with my body, with three huge identity shifts for me : I can feel strong and feminine!  I don't have to be thin to feel worthy as a woman! Building muscle makes me feel capable! Not to mention the incredible compassion it gave me towards my body moving me from self-fixation to the desire to nourish it with the big 4 - food, rest, movement and love. 

​

I knew this journey had to be shared with more women in a world still sold diet culture and toxic extremes so with my new found mental clarity and self-worth I decided to become a certified Personal Trainer to help you too and so here I am. 

​

My work is still rooted in traditional strength practises, but I teach it with presence and body connection. I combine this with my long-term passion for human connection and emotional truth making Radiant Strength Club a home for my philosophy for those women wanting something deeper than a quick fix.
