My first ever comp was a novice comp back in 2020 and my total was 270kg back then. I was going to register for the novice again this time around but my coach suggested otherwise.. now I see why! lol

I challenged myself with a weight cut and was strict with my nutrition for the last 3 months. Successful and glad to be eating illegal amounts of butter and Milo again! 🧈 ☕️

6 weeks after injury, stronger than ever and NO BACK PAIN!!!!! 🥳🥳🥳
I guess I’m a baby Powerlifter now?! 🏋🏽‍♀️

So many ppl in my corner to get me here! 💞
Special mention to coach for his elite programming and the PPC team. Thanks to for keeping me moving through injury. And most importantly, thanks to my husband for accepting that I hang out with my bf “Gym” more than him.. 🥹

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!!!! 💛💛💛

💞 World Breastfeeding Week 2025

I breastfed both my children into toddlerhood.
Not because it was always easy, but because I believed deeply in what it gave us:
🤱🏽 A strong start for their health long term
🤱🏽 Wellness & disease prevention for my own health
🤱🏽 A small but powerful way to care for our planet
🤱🏽 The cost savings and convenience

Before my first birth, I prepared by doing workshops and breastfeeding courses (.kristy .thompson.method). But it didn’t fully prepare me for my biggest challenge! With my both journeys, I had a significant oversupply for the first 5-9 months! A challenge we don’t talk about enough. I remember the overwhelm, the stress of my babies choking, unsettled and gassy, the sleepless nights, the endless laundry…
What made all the difference? A skilled lactation consultant (shout out to ) who helped guide me through positions, find strategies that worked for me and my baby, and the reassurance to trust the process. Without her and the team support, I don’t think we would have made it to 2 years of breastfeeding.

However, I want to acknowledge the privilege I had in this journey. I could afford to pay for expert lactation care. I live in Australia, where clean water, available food helped sustain my milk supply.
These shouldn’t be privileges though, they should be the baseline. Quality breastfeeding support MUST be embedded into our standard healthcare system, so every family has access, not just those who can afford it 💔❤️‍🩹

This year’s WBW theme is about building sustainable support systems, because breastfeeding doesn’t just happen on its own. It takes information, knowledge, access and community.

To all the parents navigating this journey: you deserve real support. And to the professionals who offer it, thank you with my whole heart!! 💗

Last month I went to get my pelvic floor assessed again as a preventative measure. I was 20 months postpartum and it was a follow up from my ‘6 week check’.

Good news!

My external measurements (GH + PB) were the same and internally, no pelvic organ prolapse.
Although I still have increased resting tone in my posterior pelvic floor muscles, my pelvic floor strength is the strongest it’s ever been! 💪🏽

Now I can rest assured that I’m not bearing down during all my heavy lifting! 🏋🏽‍♀️

Time to take a breath and relax 🌬️

And as I often say..

My girl is almost 20 months old.. And I’ve officially breastfed longer than my first journey 🎉

My hardest journey by far…. It took 9 months to feel easy..
And with food allergy in the mix, it has been a wild ride of pain, guilt, restriction and sleepless nights 😴🎢

When will I wean? I’m just taking it day by day.
I’ve reached my 19 month goal so next up is 2 years 🤞🏽
For as long as it’s working for us, my motivation stays for the long-lasting health benefits for both of us 💞

Shoutout to my husband, who has supported me every step of the way 🥹😘

I’d love to hear your experience/s 💭

After pregnancy and birth, your body isn’t ruined!!
It’s redefined ✨

My body has grown, birthed, and nourished 2 little humans—and AGAIN it’s amazed me by lifting 130kg! What?!! 🙀
Resilient. Powerful. Stronger than ever. That’s what happened to my body 💓

Throughout motherhood, you discover a deep inner strength.
That is the beginning.
Our bodies are more capable than meets the eye. We can do hard things 💪🏽
Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise ! 👀

My 2024 New Year’s resolution was to ditch stiff narrow shoes and give my feet the freedom they deserve 💃🏽

One year on, my best summation:
My feet feel like hands! 🙌🏽 😂

I have improved my dexterity and sensory awareness so much that walking barefoot feels like I’m gripping the earth beneath me. And I can also pick up the smallest pieces of Lego 🦶🏽

This is only the beginning!!
