My Raw journey

I haven’t always been into the gym, eating healthy, or looking after myself, so let’s start from the beginning…

At 18, I developed a phobia of getting ill. I was diagnosed with OCD and panic anxiety, avoiding certain foods and only eating ‘safe’ foods that I believed wouldn’t make me sick. I lost a lot of weight in a very unhealthy way and ended up with the crisis team due to a decline in my mental health. I suffered from IBS, which I later realised wasn’t a physical intolerance but a mental battle tied to my fears and anxieties.

I recovered through Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)—which, by the way, I’ll be training in later this year so I can help my clients with the same tools that changed my life!

A few years later, I swung in the opposite direction, using food and alcohol as an emotional crutch. Looking after myself was the last thing on my mind. I was living on McDonald’s five times a week, surviving off Pasta ‘n’ Sauce packets, using wine to help me sleep, and spending all my money on nights out—digging myself into debt just to keep up with after-work drinks.

At the time, I didn’t realise I was manifesting that cycle. I was stuck in a loop of self-sabotage, reinforcing my belief that life was just about surviving the day, not thriving. But here’s the thing—your thoughts shape your reality, whether you realise it or not.

These two extremes in my life—restriction and overconsumption—are the reason I do what I do now. They gave me my purpose and the fire to help others rewrite their own story.

Fast forward a few years, and I got hit with a harsh reality check. I had started a new job and, as part of my induction, I had to work in the retail store. I needed trousers for the shop floor, so I popped into New Look, grabbed a size 10 as usual… and they wouldn’t even go past my knees. I had no idea I was a size 16/18. That was my wake-up call.

From that moment, I set an intention to change. I didn’t just want to ‘lose weight’—I wanted to feel good in my body, to build confidence, to actually thrive.

I started making small shifts—limiting drinking to the weekends, choosing healthier foods, and forcing myself to run (even though I hated it!). Eventually, I worked up the courage to join a gym with a colleague. But for months, I stuck to the same three machines, terrified of stepping into the weights section, wasting so much time out of fear and self-doubt.

Then, I discovered the missing piece—the power of manifesting.

I realised that everything I believed about myself was holding me back. I started challenging my limiting beliefs and learning about the laws of the universe. I stopped thinking, “I can’t” and started asking, “What if I actually can?”

And guess what? I could. Because your thoughts shape your reality.

I committed to a training plan, became mindful of my protein intake, quit smoking, stopped drinking except on special occasions, and—before I knew it—manifested a promotion and a pay rise.

I kept aligning my actions with the life I wanted, and it led me to bodybuilding. In 2018, I finally found the courage to message a local bodybuilding coach. I competed in my first show in March 2019 and placed 2nd in toned figure. Two weeks later, I stepped on stage again and came 1st out of 15. Since then, I’ve competed in seven more shows, placing in all and even winning an overall sword!

From there, my life kept expanding. I passed my L3 Personal Training qualification, completed an online coaching CPD, and invested in my growth by working with mindset coaches. I bought a house with my boyfriend, became a proud cat mum, and launched my own business—something I never thought possible nine years ago.

And that’s exactly why I’m so passionate about helping women like you.

Because I know what it’s like to feel lost, to be stuck in cycles of restriction, self-sabotage, or feeling like your goals are out of reach. I’ve been there. And I also know that once you break through those limiting beliefs and align with the version of yourself that already exists in your highest potential—everything changes.

I’m not just qualified on paper—I’ve lived it. I’ve learned priceless lessons along the way that I now share with my clients to help them create a body, lifestyle, and mindset that is 100% achievable.

So if you’re looking for realistic, relatable, and empowering coaching, you’re in the right place.

✨ You are meant for more. You can have more. And I want to help you unlock that power within yourself, just like I did. ✨
