My Own Kind

My Own Kind ~ I help midlife women change their daily habits to create a life they love, inside and out ~ You know body better than anyone else.

My mission is to help busy women prioritise their own health and wellbeing. With all the things you've put it through, what you've grown up coping with and the things that have appeared or developed over time. You know what's a 'good hurt' and a 'bad hurt' when it comes to exercising and stretching. I trust you when you say that something doesn't feel right, something hurts or you need to stop. I'll never tell you to 'push through the pain'. You're an adult, you know you body better than anyone, and you deserve to have control over it. My job is to assist, educate, motivate and inspire you - not to berate, ignore or hurt you. I CAN'T help you if you need a 'biggest loser'-type PT who will yell and scream and tell you to toughen up. There's enough of those out there, and besides that's just not me. I CAN help you if you need someone to listen, understand, find another way - to support and encourage you to find your healthiest, happiest version of you.

I’ve just finished my Menopause Masterclass on the 6 most burning, frustrating questions asked in Perimenopause.

Here’s my favourite analogy: your body is a party 🎉 💃

Think of your hormones as the people at the party.

And your habits are everything else -
music, location, decorations, food, drinks, temperature….everything.

It creates the vibe. 🤩

Your habits play a massive role in whether that ‘party’ is amazing or…..not.

Focusing on these aspects has a huge influence in how you can support and help yourself through your menopausal transition.

HRT may help - definitely - but for some it doesn’t. And often it’s because there’s something else “out of whack” other than simply estrogen or progesterone levels.

If you are ready to get this party started, or at least back under control - book a complimentary discovery call with me, link in my bio or simply DM me x

What if it’s not that you’re lazy - you’re exhausted from starting over.

You’ve done the January reset.
The post holiday detox.
The new planner.
The 30 day challenge.
Where you go hard, you’re disciplined.
You prove you can do it.

Then something throws you off.
And instead of adjusting, you stop.
The wheels fall off.

The thing is, midlife doesn’t tolerate extremes the way your 30’s did.

The all-or-nothing approach is not only draining you, it doesn’t work.

You don’t need more intensity.
You need sustainability.

And that’s a habit shift, not another ‘plan’.

If you’re ready for that kind of shift, message me or book a free call (link in my bio 👆🏼)

You don’t keep showing up because you’re motivated.

You keep showing up because it matters to you.

Because you’ve decided your health isn’t optional.
Because feeling good in your body is a value, not a mood.
Because you’re done negotiating with yourself.

That’s when it clicks.

It’s no longer “I should.”
It’s just what you do.

You move.
You eat in a way that supports you.
You go to bed instead of scrolling.

Not perfectly.
But automatically.

That’s autopilot.
And that’s where real change lives.

25/02/2026

Perhaps it’s not a hormone problem.
It’s a consistency problem.

You’ve tried the supplements.
You’ve tried cutting sugar.
You’ve tried walking more.
You’ve read the books.

You know what helps.

But you only do it when you feel motivated.
Or when symptoms flare.
Or when you’re scared enough to take action.
Then life gets busy.
You fall off the wagon.
You stop.
And you tell yourself you’ll restart Monday.

Your issue isn’t information.
It’s that your healthy behaviours aren’t automatic.

You don’t need more advice.
You need someone who helps you make it stick.

23/02/2026

You don’t need another “this time I’ll be consistent” speech to yourself.

You don’t need another 4 week health kick that fizzles out by week three.

And you definitely don’t need another year saying, “I’ll deal with it after things calm down.”

If you’re honest, you already know what to do.

What’s been missing isn’t information.
It’s structure.�Consistency.�And someone actually holding you to it.

The Lifestyle Reset is a 12 month commitment to changing your habits so they become who you are, not something you’re constantly working at.

No start strong and fall off.�No back on Monday energy.
Just proper support.

Real accountability.
And habits that actually fit your life.

I’ve opened 9 spots, 8 left.

If you’re ready to do this properly, comment RESET or send me a message.

23/02/2026

You don’t need a whole new life.
You need to notice the one you’re in.

Most women have built an unconscious habit of scanning for what’s wrong.

The problem.
The stress.
What’s missing.

And when life feels hard, it can feel almost wrong to notice something good.
Like… “How can I enjoy this when everything else feels crap?”

So you override the moment.
You scroll.
You rush.
You minimise it.

But what you rehearse, you reinforce.

If you rehearse stress, that becomes your baseline.
If you rehearse noticing what’s working, you shift your nervous system.

Joy isn’t random.
It’s a habit.

Start catching one small “that was actually nice” each day.

That’s how you shift the needle.

Our Story

Welcome to my studio; my face-to-face and online community providing Holistic Personal Training and Coaching for women in a small boutique studio setting, tailored to each clients needs.

I opened my studio to create a fun, supportive, creative space for women to connect, share, enjoy moving and take on new challenges getting stronger and fitter. For some, it’s where they can feel good starting to heal and become well again. Be in their bodies, rather than always in their heads. Every day is different.

I believe in nurturing our emotions and mindset as much as mobilising and strengthening the body, therefore we all need to work and heal differently; and this is where I feel I provide a unique level of service and connection with my clients.

Some of the services I provide:
