Don’t forget to enjoy the moments in between the consistency…

My 10th half-marathon ticked ✔️ off…
Started in 2008 in South Korea for 2 years, continued after I had Harry in 2010 til 2012 and had a break til last year… decided to give them a go again because I remembered the internal strength/resilience the distance running gives me…
It has ALWAYS been about the mental for me with running ( a friend said to me today - “you could always go to therapy”! I said “ I do that too”!! )
But jokes aside, unless you’re a runner, I’m not sure you get it).
I’m not fast, I don’t do it for the time. I’m a sick way I enjoy seeing how I can pull myself through the darkness, the inner battles.
But saying that - this year I wanted to see if I could maintain it all, my full work load/mum life, all of my strength training (3days a week), maintain my mobility/yoga practice (daily), my handstand practices (2-3/wk) and only run train twice a week >>>> and beat my time from last years Half…
And we did!!! 6mins off my time from 2024. 🤗 🤩 😁 pretty damn happy with that!
I teach, preach and will always shout this to the roof tops, create a life that is a blueprint of the habits you want to live, follow your joy, follow your excitement, and know with consistency all things are possible, whatever that is for you.
Ok, full belly on pancakes, 30minute nap had, now off to recover this body with ice 🧊 and sweat 😅 therapy!!
PS- how cute are our support squad and signs 🫶 love you guys!!

To the one who made me a mum 💙
Harry, being your mum is the greatest gift — not just for the joy and love, but for the mirror you hold up to me every single day.
You have been my biggest teacher. You’ve taught me patience, humility, softness with strength… and you’ve stretched me to grow in ways I didn’t know I needed.
Lately, I’ve had a deeper realisation — that raising you isn’t just about guiding you.
I’m raising a young man - who will one day grow into someone’s friend, partner, leader, ally.
And it’s my responsibility to help you see the world through the lens of respect, integrity and compassion — especially towards women. But in doing that, I’ve also seen how we talk about men matters too. I hadn’t really thought about this as much in my past…
If we want men to respect women doesn’t our language of men have an impact too? 🤔
How important it is to raise boys who know their worth, their sensitivity, their strength — and who aren’t ashamed of their softness.
The conversation goes both ways.
I celebrate being a mum or a mother figure.
Not just for the cuddles and chaos, but for the privilege of growing, learning, and evolving beside you, my beautiful boy. 💫
Happy Mother’s Day to all the mums — in every form. The love, the lessons, the legacy. It’s all sacred.

Every single step of todays run was hard…
My training schedule had me doing a 16km today but I knew it would be day 1 or 2 of my cycle so I did 3km Friday and 3km yesterday and 10km today to still get the kms in, but still it was fu***ng hard!
I gave myself every excuse not to… and then I did it anyway…

I share this because in the last few weeks I have received the following:
“It’s easy for you to exercise in the morning”
“It’s easy for you to have difficult conversations”
“It’s easy for you to parent like that”
“It’s easy for you to handstand, you danced when you were young”
“It’s easy for you to do what you want, you don’t have a partner”
“It’s easy for you because he is well behaved”

I’m sharing these just to highlight THIS:

💫 if someone is making something look easy in life, it’s probably because they did the work behind closed doors for a long time, when no one else was watching. They struggled and kept going when most would quit, and did the work that made them uncomfortable when others wouldn’t…

Running for me is the true paradox of life - it’s hard & a battle and at the same time makes me feel alive and empowered! 🤷‍♀️
So yeah, I got it done today, and I rewarded myself with handstand minimums and a ab work finisher.

If you’ve read this far - give the finisher a go!
❤️ Ab roll ups
❤️ Bicycle crunches
❤️ Side reaches
❤️ Plank DB pull across
15reps back to back - 3 rounds

🕊 Dad
Three years ago today, your heart stopped. You took your last breath alone, and weren’t found for two days. Two weeks later, the police knocked on my door — delivering news & a decision that would become one of the biggest healing moments of my life.

Although you weren’t present for 22 years of my life, I’m forever grateful for the conversations we shared in your final five.

Those conversations opened the door to everything I didn’t realise I needed to face, forgive, or understand.
For so long, I lived disconnected — trying to earn love, approval, belonging. Through your death, I was forced to meet the parts of me I had kept hidden.

*I learned that waiting to forgive is self-poison.
*I learned that people have different capacities to love and those differences are not a reflection of our own self-worth.
*I learned that unhealed trauma doesn’t just disappear — it gets passed down.
*I learned that playing small is a mask we wear when we’re afraid of abandonment/rejection.

It shouldn’t take loss of a loved one to find our path home to ourselves… but this was my path.
Through dad’s death, I met the deepest parts of myself.
I saw the weight of generational pain.
I traced silence, shame, and shutdown in my own body.
And I made a decision: to break the cycle.
To study Emotional Processing.
To understand generational trauma.
To help myself — and help others heal what they were taught to hide.
Grief didn’t just teach me how to let go — it taught me how to return.
To my voice.
To my power.
To the woman I’ve become.
I no longer chase approval. I no longer shrink myself.
And I know now — dad’s soul walks beside me every step of the way.
I am who I am today because of the journey I have walked, because of the path both of my parents walked… the understanding and acceptance of that is one of the parts of the path and journey back home to self ….
Love you, Dad. 🤍

Are you getting enough protein in your day?

I know I harp on about this but if you are feeling any of the following symptoms, chances are you are not getting enough protein into your daily nutrition.
- you are hungry often
- you don't have an appetite
- you are fatigued/exhausted/lack motivation
- you are not recovering from movement/training well
- bloated
- have sugar cravings
- keep getting sick
- could sleep for days..

Getting enough protein is key for muscle recovery, strength, hormone balance, stabilising energy, managing weigh, repairing cells and tissues, hair skin and nail quality and overall vitality... Plus so much more!

Starting your day (especially if you are a woman!) with 30gm of protein in your morning meal can be a game changer to hitting your protein target for the rest of the day...

But how much is 30 grams in real food?
I created this little visual guide to help you.

Drop a comment below if you want to know more information on protein or find this visual and education like this helpful.👇

This is they type of education I provide in detail for my Online Coaching clients in order to build more knowledge on how to fuel the body effectively to function at optimal health and get the most out of training and life as a whole!

DM for more details on ONLINE COACHING and NUTRITIONAL SUPPORT.

Your habits shape your reality.
If you're striving for a life of vitality, strength, and clarity, think about your social habits.
A client recently told me she had a light bulb moment = why not build social connections around your body, mind & soul, instead of drinking gatherings...
Gather with friends to move, to chat, to learn, to laugh..

TIMES YOU CAN GATHER TO MOVE WITH ME WEEKLY/MONTHLY:

- M4 members > Wednesday nights 5pm for Handstands & Mobility class at
- M4 members & Calma Health clients > Wednesday nights 6:15pm

*TRANSFORMATIONS*

"Choosing to do a compprep with Sharna was the best decision I ever made! The discipline and dedication was intense but the understanding I recieved about nutrition, balance, training and more so mindset was something that will stay with me for life..."

Whether someone comes to be for rehabilitation from injury, metabolic dysfunction, stress/nervous system issues, nutritional coaching, skill education, previously comp coaching, or lifestyle habit managmennt and support - it will always have an impact on the physical body.
And if I have done my job right, there will be phsyical evidence...
BUT - we all know by now - the phsical is just one layer of representation of what is happening below the surface, the changes of health, wellness, fitness, emotional and systemic changes that are also happening contirbuing to a better more vibrant life for the longterm...

If any of these testimonials and transformations/words resonate with you over the next few months - please reach out, send me a DM, touch base to discuss ONLINE COACHING & WAYS I CAN SUPPORT YOU TO BE YOUR BEST SELF IN THIS LIFE!

*TRANSFORMATIONS *Beyond the phsyical *Highly recommed to READ ALL*

In-line with sharing all of the parts of Calma Health and what I have helped people with over the years, I have decided to share some testimonials and transformations of change over the next couple of months.

These will have physical evidence, HOWEVER, go way beyond the physical change (hence why I have put WORDS from the individual below the pic).

Whether someone comes to be for rehabilitation from injury, metabolic dysfunction, stress/nervous system issues, nutritional coaching, skill education, previously comp coaching, or lifestyle habit managmennt and support - it will always have an impact on the physical body.
And if I have done my job right, there will be phsyical evidence...

BUT - we all know by now - the phsical is just one layer of representation of what is happening below the surface, the changes of health, wellness, fitness, emotional and systemic changes that are also happening contirbuing to a better more vibrant life for the longterm...

So - if any of these testimonials and transformations/words resonate with you over the next few months - please reach out, send me a DM, touch base to discuss ONLINE COACHING & WAYS I CAN SUPPORT YOU TO BE YOUR BEST SELF IN THIS LIFE!
