As a mum and a Wellbeing Coach of 19 years, I’ve heard countless stories about mental health struggles, physical safety concerns, relationship challenges, and more. Some of these stories have truly broken my heart.

Education, wellbeing, and connection are values I hold close, and if I could, I would shout from the rooftops about the urgent need to address the youth mental health crisis. We are missing pivotal pieces of the puzzle when it comes to helping young people develop emotional intelligence and resilience.

Take 5 minutes to read my latest blog and understand what’s really happening to our Youth Mental Health, why we must take action and what we can all do to help.

Our devices are ruling our lives and our nervous systems are suffering. What scares me is our teens are conditioned to receiving alerts, vibrates and updates. This constant stimulation is unhealthy. 😵

Scientists are saying that the endless dings and buzzing is taking a major toll on our wellbeing and has been linked to depression, anxiety and may even contribute to ADHD. (discover magazine)

On average we are spending 5.5 hours on our phones, we lose focus and productivity by the constant interruptions.

But how do we take back control.....📴

That smart device in your hand actually gives you the tools to take back control.
I love the Focus Setting. I have hours set when only certain people will be able to reach me and zero app notifications.

You can also turn on Screen Time and get a weekly report with insights about your screen time and set time limits for apps you want to manage.

We need to show some self control, your phone does not need to be an extension of your arm 24/7
You can put it down you know!! I walk 5km every day with a girlfriend and I don't take my phone the world will cope without me for 60 minutes and let me do a workout in peace! Plus its a pain to carry!

So next time you go go grab your phone ask do I really need it. 🤔

Can I walk into the next room for 5 minutes without my phone? 🤔

I am concerned about youth mental health, it is high on my priority list of making contribution and change where I can.

As a mum and a Wellbeing Coach of 19 years, I’ve heard countless stories about mental health struggles, physical safety concerns, relationship challenges, and more. Some of these stories have truly broken my heart.

Education, wellbeing, and connection are values I hold close, and if I could, I would shout from the rooftops about the urgent need to address the youth mental health crisis.

We are missing pivotal pieces of the puzzle when it comes to helping young people develop emotional intelligence and resilience.

It’s time to take action—understanding the root causes, providing practical support, and creating safe spaces for open conversations is critical.

In our latest article, we break down what’s really happening and what we can all do to help.

Busy being busy is no longer fashionable! 😝

Most of you don't know that I have been a Personal Trainer for 18 years and I am certified in Nutrition Psychology and studying to be a Trauma Healing Practioner. I run a busy training company but I still look after a handful of clients which gives me so much joy. ❤️It doesn't matter what the goal "If you get your head right your body will follow”.

Wheel spinning is not only unproductive it’s unhealthy! Step back and take a look at your routine and ask yourself what is just “busy work”. 🤔
Having time to rest is not a waste of time it’s crucial to your mental and physical health. NEVER feel guilty for taking time to rest. ..........

Now don’t get me started on the HUSTLE fad. It’s not a genuine way of doing business, people see right through it. Focus on being genuine and creating a true connection. You don’t have to join the 5am club, you don’t have to ban tv.... you have to do what feels right for you. 😋

Our bodies are pretty cleaver! We cough when we are 'choking' we sweat when we are hot, we feel fatigue when we need to rest. Do you listen to your body??

Sarah's top tips✔️
- If the sentence starts with 'I SHOULD' you might want to re think it.

- If you head is saying NO and your mouth is saying YES. Stop yourself and say 'let me just check and I will get back to you' just to give yourself time to assess.

- Listen to your body.... self care is not selfish, self worth is gold.

Spend more time being productive than just being busy.
