Just over a year ago today the gorgeous asked me a question that set about a series of events that caused a lot of disruption and discomfort in my life…..

But in that moment my body finally accept what my mind has been trying to tell me for a while…. And poor Shona spent ten minutes listening to me SOB 😭

Thankful 🙏 it happened, that one conversation sealed the deal in me understanding my self worth and stepping UP to say I was no longer stepping back or backing down to make others feel better.

You do NOT have to dim who you are to make others feel better. THEY need to learn how to be confident, bright and shiny WITH you… because we each have things we are amazing at and things we need to improve….

Anyway: If someone can look you in the eye and then lie to your face… you know that’s not your space.

I don’t repeat patterns, I learn from them. It still hurts to think that people don’t and they’re still going through it BUT some say if distraction is around you, it’s inside you! I hope peace is found for you.

Fast forward a year… fully stepped into the light. I’ve never had a doubt, I’m always myself and the pure ease of my days- it’s real ❤️

I’m so thankful for the bad times. I’m thankful for Shona for seeing me and just being brave enough to point it out. The world needs you. I’m glad it changed both our lives ❤️

I didn’t think I’d be doing this job now…. But we’re doing it, full time, fully booked and now taking on a brand new project 🙌🙌🙌🙌

Live big people! Live your dreams.

Be kind but truthful. Always 💖

Update: we are IN

We officially have everything set up and ready to go for in 🙂

We’re just getting the website sorted do for now please DM .pilates if you would like to book a class.

We open June 1st 🙂

While I’m here, I thought I would also show you the gorgeous new room at the gym! It feels amazing and has all the equipment in, it’s been used by members and us as trainers. We’re so lucky to have it. Feel free to pop down and visit us.

Happy Monday all. See you in June 😘

Happy Sunday 👋

It’s been a while since I checked in and it’s obviously birthing time for many s enquires are up again 😊

I am still around and I am still working with Pre and Postnatal Clients but only 1:1

Classes are not currently being held with Bump into fitness.

In other news I have a space available for PT after helping a lovely mummy reach her goal 🙂

I’ve been busy teaching Mat Pilates with Tandys gym in Nantwich, learning my new rehab role and have some training days this week, so that’s exciting 😊

Harry is expanding the gym and so the team at P1 are getting ready for the big move as well as our team training and our clients and members.

And yes, I’m excited to say we’re able to offer group reformer Pilates classes from June 🙂 so we’re busy behind the scenes with that too

Looking forward to being a little more social media present 😁

****Its amazing what can happen in a year****

Hi all 👋 it’s been a while!

Just popping on to say that I am officially fully booked. 😊 There is currently no way to work with me 1:1

3 months ago I set myself a target 🎯 and since then life has been max speed… and thankfully I have made it 💪💪

My priority is to deliver a quality service to clients and do this while also keeping my studies up to date and progressing in my career. While simultaneously being the best mum I can, while running a home single-handedly ….. while avoiding a nervous breakdown 😬 I know you will all feel that 🤦🏻‍♀️

I am incredibly grateful and so happy to be able to say the above in such a short space of time and will not take it for granted. Those close to me know just how difficult life has been in the previous 12 months and what it has taken to get here.

To those struggling
-Align yourself with your values
-Keep concentrating on yourself
-Don’t listen to other people’s limitations, they’re limiting themselves not you. 😊
-keep shining: Our world needs you exactly as you are!

*I do have a wait list that you’re able to join, the minimum wait is 3 months. DM to join 💕

Didn’t go to the gym as planned today!

That’s okay 👍 I won’t be beating myself up 🆙 get it. Still got my steps in, still eaten some incredibly nutritious food.

Still moved my body.

I don’t need to go into detail because we’re all busy and we all have times where we can’t catch our breath…. For me that’s been the past three weeks and I’ve made the mistake of not giving myself a little break to catch my breath and tend to my home and the needs within that…..

So now I’m panicking how I’m going to catch that time up….. so today I sacrificed the gym, knowing that won’t make any difference to my day but it will mean I will sleep better tonight and aid my session tomorrow 😉💪

So mumma: remember that when others depend on you, sometimes the sensible thing is to prioritise rest.

The only time place your irreplaceable is at home 💕😘

P.s Pilates with me pretending I’m a pop star is amazing 🤣

Happy international women’s day to all the women who shine bright and refuse to be anything other than themselves.

Here’s to strong women:
May we know them
May we be them
May we raise them…..

And create them in the gym (for life) 💪💪🫶🏻

I had a new picture taken (where I look more myself 😉 and not the weird blond/ginger version) so thought I’d share it.

Good Morning :)

I’ve been relatively quiet lately because…. I’ve been super busy 😊

I’m so grateful to be busy and I’m enjoying the challenges but obviously something has to take a back seat……and clients over socials… but I’m enjoying seeing all your stories still.

🥳 I’m super thrilled to have joined a new team where I’ll be doing all the usual PT things BUT I’ll also be making the most of my referral quals and working with the rehabilitation team for cancer survivors and cardiac patients 🥰 super overwhelmed and scared by it BUT that’s where the growth is isn’t it!

I am still at and I won’t be leaving! It’s the perfect mix of everything I was hoping to one day experience in a workplace… I’m learning everyday and I’m being challenged with clients that spark all the knowledge I’ve collected over the years…..

You can join me for mat Pilates at in Monday 12.30-1.15 and Thursdays 6.15-7PM where I’m also available for massage and Personal Training sessions.

Hope you’ve had an amazing week everyone.

Happy Friday 🙌🙌

If we took weight out of it….

What do you think are the top three things women say to me about why they want to train with me?

Clue: you’ve all thought at least one and probably feel guilty or weird for at least the one thought 🤣🤣

A friend said something to me a while ago and it’s stuck with me.

“We all go through hard times but you do it alone, that’s the difference between us”

And as weird as this sounds as a single mum of 10 years….im not sure I’ve ever thought about it!

We all have our times when we’re overwhelmed and struggling….

But yes, parents like me do it alone (or with minimal help) and we do t have that person to pick up the slack or help financially or to lean on daily….

That’s the difference, the lack on leaning! Our time is not the same or priorities can’t be the same…. It’s a constant battle of change and balance….. just like other mums…… but alone!

If you know a single mum (or dad) just try touch base with them and ask if they’re okay and if they need anything….

Because they won’t come out and say it. We’re not made that way.

To those doing it alone, speak up if you need to 💕

Thanks.

(I’m fine before anyone asks, it’s just a thought)

Change can be really hard. The fitness industry is rife with toxic thinking patterns about how things “should” be and look….

But everyone’s circumstances are different and we’re all doing g the best we can. Sometimes we need help to think differently and find the solution because we are so stuck in our own thought patterns…..

That’s when life experience and thinking outside the box is helpful.

I like the phrase “keep it simple silly” because we often think we have to do crazy big changes that
-were not in alignment with
-are not sustainable for us

That’s why it’s important it’s built around you!

Happy Monday

Really boring things I did in January that will set me up for the rest of the year!

Now 2023 was a bit of a survival year, I over spent and was not conscious of a lot of the choices I made because… life was happening to me, not for me. Completely out of alignment with myself… stress and anxiety up and down…… and I had been drinking a little more than usual…. Stress apparently!

So between Christmas and new year I had a clear out ✔️
As you can see there are some old things that should have been thrown (fake tan) I did the same with my bank accounts, debts and savings…. No it’s not fashionable is it! 🤐

But I’m a single mum and realistically, budgeting is part of most peoples lives…. I’ve been debt free for a long time but gained some in 2023…. Because I walked away from a job…. 🤷🏻‍♀️ we survived but we didn’t thrive!

So: I discovered 5 foundations
So much food! Clothes, bags, shoes I don’t wear 👋

Then I set my budgets
Set my goals and intentions for the year and I got my head down!

January is a big spend month because for some reason last year I decided to buy a car 🤦🏻‍♀️

Other than that it was all non essentials BANNED ❌
😊 We are from the fridge/cupboards and freezer
😊 I cut off the tops of my foundations and gained an extra week (that’s a truck from my granny)
😊 Only used the car when I didn’t need to
😊 Wrote down everything that I spent
😊 Did a weekly audit
😊 committed to no alcohol

Why did this set me up for 2024?
✅ Cleared clutter (physical emotional and financial)
✅ Gave me focus and time to get back in control
✅ made me conscious of what I’m doing daily.

This just creates space for me to be really intentional about my needs and how I’m living rather than trying to impress or keep up!

Why am I telling you? Because I’m listening to some of you feeling just as stuck/confused or out of control with just trying to keep up with everyone you see on instagram…… and then worrying.

If you have it spare, sure go for it.
If you like to do it, sure do it….

But if it’s about how it looks to others, think about that!

Stress has a huge impact on physical health, that no nutrition or exercise can help with.

Hope it helps someone 💕

It feels right to say this now. Prenatal classes started September 2017 Postnatal Group classes started January 2018

As a trainer I’ve grown so much since then. I believe that when you don’t feel things in your heart you can’t govern your best and in this job it’s not acceptable.

I also would not want to be the type of person that becomes so stuck in a role that I stop growing or begrudge others growth because I stayed stuck in the past. I’ve been on the receiving end of a lack of growth and it’s not nice…… so

Here is to growing, showing up as our biggest and best and really making an impact…….

See you on the otherside 💕💕
