I’m loving all the 90’s nostalgia at the moment and I’m reliving my Buffy era ✨

I’ve been living one of my hardest seasons this past summer but I’m coming out of the other side and I’m determined more than ever to not let my body defeat me.

As someone who has lived her entire life with hidden disabilities, my disabilities are becoming more visible after my recent ankle surgery. I’m not just healing my ankle, my legs have really taken a hit the last couple of years since I had my accident which wrecked my ankle in the first place and my endo has been really hard to deal with and has been more constant most recently.

Always an open book, adverse childhood experiences started for me from a really young age and didn’t relent until I was 21. Then I had some really difficult stuff to deal with from then until recent years but I’ve never let any of these experiences beat me.

I’ve always fought for what I believe is right. I’ve always stayed true to who I am and never followed a crowd. I’ve got myself in trouble at times but that was only ever for standing up for what I felt was right.

My body is trying to cope with what feels like a lifetime of traumatic experiences. It was only a few years ago, I started to know what peace truly feels like. Now my body is breaking down at a more rapid rate because it doesn’t know how to deal with my nervous system being in a much more regulated state.

Adverse experiences alter the adult nervous system and raise the risk of chronic illness through long-term changes in stress-response systems, inflammation, and neural wiring (PMID 41381674) which is exactly what I’m dealing with.

I have been doing inner child work for a while now but in truth, it scares me and I’m unable to get to the roots so I focus on my health, fitness and wellbeing in its place. Focusing on my behaviours and cultivating a strong mindset has helped me stay as fit and as healthy as possible. My experiences, both good and bad allow me to help other people. I coach with compassion and empathy. I focus on determination over motivation and I will always do everything in my power to do what I can to help others.

Buffy Summers will stay with me forever! ❤️

Sharing a little snapshot that sums up the highs and lows of how I’m feeling now I’m in the second stage post ankle surgery 📸

I’m FINALLY over the hill and so damn happy the leg cast era is over. Summer is over! These last two months have physically been the hardest thing I have ever had to do. I had a few falls in my first two weeks of completely non weight bearing. I’ve been confined to being at home and in a wheelchair assisted with needing the help of someone if I needed to do anything outside of home. And the heat we had was something else 🥵 Summer 2026 will definitely be one to remember BUT I am finally able to go back to PT and the gym TOMORROW!!! 😃

I’m still dependant on my crutches as I’m still having difficulty with my leg but I am able to do finally things as ‘normal’ (just very slowly and carefully!). I’ve had an awful lot of reflection time and just this weekend, I have had such a transformative breakthrough which has given me exactly the clarity I’ve been needing since my mental breakdown this time three years ago. My breakdown was the catalyst for me being able to shed my protective barrier and be in the literal place I am now. I can spread my glittering wings as proudly and as loudly as I’m doing without giving a single f**k if someone doesn’t like the way I do things ✨

I’m exactly where I’m meant to be. I am the author of my own timeline. And I can do what I want, when I want and live my life exactly as I am 🩷

I still have a long way to go with this leg and my EDS journey. I’ve been battling my endometriosis throughout the whole time I’ve been recovering from having my ankle done which has also been really difficult. I’m now preparing myself physically for my upcoming endo surgery ❤️‍🩹

Despite everything, the BEST version of Hayleigh is here and after my endo surgery, the fittest and healthiest version of myself will be here too!! 2027 come at me.

Now who’s ready for September 🍂

I know I am 💖

If you’re new here… Hi 👋🏼 I’m Hayleigh.

And if you’ve been following me for a while… Hi again 🩷

So much has changed in recent times 🥹

My weight loss was just the beginning, it led me to discovering fitness, then coaching, then helping other women realise that becoming healthier isn’t just about changing how our bodies look.

It’s about changing how you FEEL, how you think, how you show up for yourself and how you build a life you actually want to live.

Over the years, I’ve become a PT, a wellness coach, a fitness instructor, a runner, a business owner and an incredibly open book about all the messy bits in between.

I’ve spoken about my mental health.
I’ve shared my ADHD journey.
I’ve talked about body image, confidence, setbacks, injuries, surgeries, rebuilding and learning to listen to my body instead of pushing it over the edge.

I believe we can be a work in progress AND still be a source of support, encouragement and inspiration to others.

Fitness will always be a huge part of my life. But what happens inside the gym is only a tiny fraction of our lives.
The strength we build in the gym helps us carry the difficult things outside of it. The confidence we build through movement can spill into every other part of our lives.

And sometimes a fitness class isn’t just a fitness class.

Which is probably why I get ridiculously excited teaching my classes 😂 After my years of musical theatre, there’s definitely still a performer in me waiting for an excuse to come out.

And then there’s running.

My running journey has become such a huge part of who I am. I’m far from the fastest or best runner but running has taught me so much I didn’t think would even be possible.

Patience. Resilience. Community. Doing hard things.
And proving to ourselves that we are capable of more than we thought.

If you’ve just found my page. WELCOME 🩷

If you’ve been here a while, THANK YOU! You’ve seen a lot of chapters already and there’s even more to come ✨

Tell me something about you in the comments ☺️ Let’s get to know each other 💖

Sharing a very vulnerable moment ❤️‍🩹 As I recover from my ankle surgery, my upcoming endometriosis surgery has constantly been in the back of my mind.

For the last six weeks, I’ve had to use blood thinning injections whilst my leg is immobilised in a cast and every night I’ve looked at the bruises on my stomach, lI can’t help but think this is what my body feels like on the inside ALL THE TIME 💔

Endometriosis is such a cruel disease and it takes so much away from those of us who live with it. In the UK right now, it takes on average 9 years and 4 months to get a diagnosis which is insane 🤯 Let that sink in for a moment. And if you’re one of the estimated 190M people in the world, living with endometriosis right now, I am so sorry and I am sending the biggest hugs 💛

For years, I’ve had to fight and advocate for myself to finally get somewhere with my health issues and it’s finally all getting sorted out now but only because I have refused to never back down. It’s taken a hell of a lot of patience and perseverance. It’s very frustrating and it causes a lot of sadness and anger experiencing medical gaslighting and medical misogyny at what feels like every corner. We shouldn’t have to become experts in our own illnesses to be taken seriously!!

These bruises will eventually fade and I will move on with my ankle recovery, I still have my endo to contend with and then have to go through the whole surgery process again 🎗️

Never one to sugarcoat things and always an open book, this surgery and recovery has been so damn hard ❤️‍🩹

I have less than a week until my cast comes off and I cannot wait! I know I still have a very long stretch ahead but the initial recovery period is nearly over 🙏

I knew when I first hurt my ankle in November 24’, it was bad and still to this day, the driver of the car, who could have easily hit me with his car had I have not stopped myself with my foot, have no idea how much he had changed my life these last almost two years! BUT I am not a resentful person, I am grateful for all the lessons learnt during this period. It’s been painful to say the least but pain and struggle teaches us things we never thought would be possible!

I cannot wait to return to work and the gym as soon as I am able to. I’m still struggling but I’m doing a lot better than I was in the early days. I’m craving movement and being able to get out and about again!!!

To every single person who has helped and supported me through this period, thank you ❤️ I could not have done this without the help, love and support of my friends, my clients and my mum as I live on my own (with babygirl ofc) and run my own business. I’m hyper independent at the best of times but sometimes we have to have help as we are not able to do all the things, all the time.

It’s been a real grind hobbling around on one leg and managing as best I can these last five weeks.

It’s the final countdown now. I’m still unsure of the exact date when I will be able to return to Jetts Portsmouth again but I’m hoping it’ll be really soon 💪☘️

I’ll keep you all posted 💖

August is a gentle transition into the changing seasons. It’s an opportunity to pause, reflect, and check in with yourself before the pace of autumn begins.

One of my biggest lessons this summer has reinforced for me is this: our bodies and our nervous systems are always communicating with us. When we ignore the whispers and continue pushing through, they eventually find a way to make us listen.

So many of us have been conditioned to believe that slowing down means we’re falling behind. But the truth is, rest isn’t the opposite of progress—it’s part of it.

There is a real art to living a softer life. To creating rhythms instead of constantly chasing routines. To choosing recovery as intentionally as productivity. To understanding that sustainable health isn’t built by doing more—it’s built by knowing when to do less.

As we move into August, I want to encourage you to think about what your body needs, not just what your calendar demands.

What would change if this month you measured success not by how much you got done, but by how well you cared for yourself along the way?

Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do for your health is simply slow down. 🤍

This day 8 years ago, I had my very first day as a PT. Roll forward 8 years and I’m currently laying in bed recovering from my ankle surgery ❤️‍🩹

The last 13 years have been a WILD ride. I’ve lived many different seasons, and the upcoming season is the one I am excited for most!

I count my blessings every day to be in a position where I can help others do the same and change their lives too 🥰

This particular time of year is always a period of reflection for me, with my birthday just a few days away, I find myself reflecting on the years past.

Everything I do is from a place of love, care and understanding. I’ve become the person I always felt like I needed for myself, for others. I take every opportunity in life as an opportunity to learn, heal and grow 🌻

I start working from home late next week and I’m so excited to get back to a bit of normality. Every surgery I’ve had is a physical signifier for my healing journey. Every scar I have tells a story! Not all scars are visable but I will always shout loud and proud about my story and my experiences as they might just help someone else when they need it most 🤍

I’ve reached the halfway point post surgery for my ankle 🙏

This has been my physically the hardest thing I have ever had to do. Knowing that surgery was very likely early on after I first got my injury, I’ve been training for this recovery period for the last year and a half.

The whole medical and surgical team I’ve had at QA have been fantastic and I cannot fault them for a second.

Last week I found out two ligaments (ATFL and CFL) had completely snapped off the bone and to think I was still running and clocking up an average and in excess of 12-17K steps per day is mind blowing 🤯

I feel so justified in complaining about my ankle and poorly legs the way I was 😂

I’ve been told the surgery went well but it seems I’ve got some nerve damage which may or may not be permanent. I was told before I went in, it was one of the possible complications of having the surgery, so that’ll be something else to work on when I’m in physio and rehabbing my poorly legs and ankle. Nerve regrowth can be extremely slow but I’m determined to work as hard as I can for the best possible outcome and get back running again when I can! I’m still in a considerable amount of pain but I’m slowly coming over the hill 🐢

Getting around on one leg is so damn hard. I’ve done an untold amount of single leg squats and deadlifts over the last few weeks, the difference in my left and right legs when I’m out of my cast means I’m going to have to rehab the 💩 out of them.

I’ve had so much wonderful support and its been lovely to have so many people checking in and coming to see me at home ❤️

Next week is my birthday, my mum is coming for a few days which I always look forward to 🥰

I return to working from home the week after next and I can’t wait to get back to it! I’ll have to be more independent on my feet again before I’m able to return to the gym so my main focus now is rest, relaxation and staying in zen mode ✌️

May we all embrace the flows of our journeys and life’s path ✨ Everything is lining up and all that is meant to be, will be. Yesterday’s and yesteryear’s can bring on the most painful of times but when we persevere and use the power and strength of our minds in the most useful and mindful way, things will happen exactly as it is supposed to and you will connect with the people you need to, and have all the experiences meant for you in that moment of time 🤍
It is only then, we become our happiest, healthiest, fittest and most healed versions of ourselves. Peace is possible 🌸

Accept the transitions, put your faith and trust into the universe and she will give you all of what is meant for you. We break, we learn, we heal and most importantly we grow 💫

I appreciate every single person who is in my life (and has been in my life), even though I have no idea what’s around the corner, I will take each day and each moment as it comes.

May you have been beautiful 🫶 THANK YOU 🥰

There is a great awakening happening at the moment and may we all keep moving forward into the light 🌞
