Mindset & Fitness Coach

I help desk-based professionals prioritise their health and happiness alongside their careers.

A sedentary lifestyle wasn’t for me.

I LOVED being a corporate gal in my 20s. The rush of client demands and deadlines, coupled with long days travelling and late nights mingling made every day exciting.

Then, my 30s hit, and that lifestyle jarred. I felt slow, sleepy and sluggish, realising if I continued prioritising hustling over health, I was setting myself up for a very unsatisfying retirement.

Movement became a non-negotiable and, as this passion grew, my desire to be desk-bound died. Ultimately, I left my corporate marketing career of 12+ years.

Now, as a certified and accredited coach and gym instructor, I help other desk-based professionals welcome fitness and exercise into their lives in a way that suits their schedule. I’m not about prescribing cookie-cutter exercise routines, I want to set you up for long-term success by building your confidence inside and out of the gym, so you feel empowered to say ‘no’ to work demands that impact your health.

Through a combination of exceptional coaching skills, passion for fitness and health, and years of experience in project management in high-pressure environments (where I still maintained a steady exercise schedule), I’m perfectly placed to support you to incorporate fitness into your lifestyle, keeping you motivated to move for years to come.
