The example we set goes well beyond what we “intentionally” do.

Our children watch, and learn from, us every second we spend together.

3 simple things to raise active children:

1️⃣ Get them (safely) involved in your training. Let them wander around and imitate what you do.

2️⃣ Don’t do things for them that they can do for themselves. Ask them to pick up something they dropped, or to bring you something you need.

3️⃣ Turn every activity into a “family activity”. They’re happiest when they feel like they belong.

Jamie loves me to go down the high slide with him, and to share a double swing. He also loves deadlifting our kettlebells, jumping on us when we do press-ups, planks or glute bridges, and trying to pull himself up from the pull-up bar.

We let him, because we’re not just creating memories: we’re shaping his mindset.

What’s your favourite activity to get your children involved? Let me know in the comments!

🔈 Not my usual post, but I wanted to give a huge shoutout to for letting me try their POSTNATAL HAIR LOSS — BOUNCE BACK LOCKS supplement for a month!

Although I’m nearly 16 months post partum, my hair hasn’t quite regrown as thick as it used to be. I experienced massive shedding around 9-12 months post partum, and the new strands have been growing thin and weak. So I was over the moon when approached me, and offered me to try one of their supplements.

Here’s what I LOVED about the product:

🌿 It’s completely natural, mostly composed of ZINC CITRATE to strengthen strands from the root, and IODINE from KNOTTED KELP SEAWEED EXTRACT to help thyroid regulate hair growth cycles, minimise shedding, and also improve strands thickness. While I was already supplementing with zinc (which I discontinued when I started taking this supplement), I was most definitely lacking iodine.

💊 Full transparency. Everything’s stated clearly, there are no false claims, ingredients are listed as they should, and instructions are clear. You need three capsules daily—to maximise absorption, I broke it down to one capsule with each meal.

I took “before” and “after” pictures 4 weeks apart. They were tanken on the same day of the week, 2 days after washing my hair, and I refrained from using any other hair products in between, so I could isolate the efficacy of Postnatal Hair Loss as much as possible.

Whilst I clearly still need help with hair regrowth, I’ve already experienced incredible benefits that I wasn’t even expecting:

1️⃣ Less shedding since day 3 (literally, my comb has been empty after brushing ever since);
2️⃣ Thicker strands after 2 weeks.

👩🏽‍⚖️FINAL VERDICT: APPROVED and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

⬅️👈🏽The day I was officially diagnosed and admitted wit preeclampsia

VS

➡️👉🏽 The day I finally learned to forgive myself for something that was outside my control

Around 32 weeks of pregnancy, I started experiencing violent vomiting, alarming, vision changes, fluctuating blood pressure, disproportionate swelling all over my body, and scapular pain accompanied by headaches.

I dismissed all of them, because:

1️⃣ I was in denial;
2️⃣ I was unaware of the severity of preeclampsia.

Even after the diagnosis, I was embarrassed, and downplayed my condition:

How could a registered health coach and PT develop a high blood pressure related disease?!?

In reality, preeclampsia is no lifestyle disease. It’s a shallow implantation of the placenta, due to a combination of:

1️⃣ mother’s genes,
2️⃣ father’s genes,
3️⃣ baby’s genes.

Whilst individuals with a higher BMI, hypertension, and autoimmune diseases are at higher risk of developing superimposed preeclampsia, anyone with an unfortunate genetic makeup can develop preeclampsia.

However, knowing this wasn’t enough for me to forgive myself. As a parent, learning that your placenta isn’t working and your baby isn’t growing just feels like failure.

I survived, my baby survived, yet we both had to deal with physical challenges for a few months—and I’ve been facing PTSD that won’t probably ever go away.

This is why I’m doing a fundraising to support Action on Preeclampsia : to spread awareness, and offer support on a life threatening pregnancy complication that no one talks about, is still too understudied, yet changes your life forever.

Just sharing what I look like at the moment.

🟠 I haven’t dieted or trained intensely yet.

🟡 I haven’t slept well in months, obviously, and I haven’t weighed myself in weeks (last time I checked, I was about 10kg heavier than my pre-pregnancy weight). And I’ve lost quite a decent amount of muscle mass and strength.

🟢 My current priority is Jamie’s health, anything else comes second.

🔵 Do I like what I see? Not really. Do I care? Even less. What I do care for, is recuperating all the strength I’ve lost (pull-ups and press-ups have been so challenging!) and maintaining a good life balance, that allows me to keep training hard while prioritising my baby. I know muscle will grow back as soon as I improve sleep and nutrition… 19 years of consistent lifting don’t just disappear overnight!!!

🟣 I’ve been posting my training sessions in my stories. If you’ve been watching them, you’ll probably know I’ve been focusing on injury prevention and core rehab (as it should be).

✨ If happiness had a face, that would be yours ✨

💙🩵 Happy 3-month monthiversary, Jamie! 🩵💙

No longer a “newborn”.
Watching you grow has been the greatest joy of our lives, and we look forward to making more and more memories together… we love you to bits, Mr Peanut!!!

It’s been nearly 4 years since this shot.
I prepped for that shoot in lockdown, with virtually no access to gym equipment.

✨ I’m posting this today to remind myself of what I can accomplish under the least favourable circumstances.✨

I had big powerlifting goals for 2025, that I fear I might not be able to achieve because of my new life as a mum.

🌟 It might not happen in 2025, but I’m sure it will, at some point! 🌟

If you’re also doubting yourself right now, I hope this post reaches you and brings you comfort. Where there’s a will there’s a way! 💪🏽🙏🏽💚

As Jamie turns 8 weeks old today and I’m finally healing from all the emotional trauma, I feel the need to address a few points, as I’ve read so much invalidating misinformation about preeclampsia recently. I know how easy it is to let negative thoughts and feelings affect your wellbeing, but you shouldn’t, and here’s why.

1️⃣ IT’S NOT YOUR FAULT! Whilst a healthy lifestyle including proper nutrition and consistent exercise helps manage symptoms and delay the onset of the disease, in most cases, preeclampsia is congenital, meaning it can develop regardless of your lifestyle.

2️⃣ YOU COULD NOT HAVE AVOIDED IT. Although either a high BMI or high BP before pregnancy increase the risk of developing preeclampsia, you can develop preeclampsia at any weight and pre-pregnancy BP levels (I had a BMI of 22, only 10% BF and my average BP was 110/70).

3️⃣ TRUST MEDICAL CARE. In most cases, BP will normalise within weeks of delivery, so you shouldn’t be afraid of taking medication, as it will barely have any long-term side effects. On the contrary, it will keep you and your baby safe.

🥩 BONUS: urine albumin in preeclampsia has NOTHING to do with your protein intake, it’s just how the disease manifests. Protein is an essential nutrient that shouldn’t be limited or restricted, especially when you’re growing another human.

🤰Ultimately, a NATURAL BIRTH is still possible in most cases, if that is your wish, as it was mine. However, it will probably take longer (I had an 80-hour labour) and be extremely painful. You shouldn’t shame yourself if doctors advise you otherwise or you change your mind: whatever choice you make is your choice and therefore valid.

Share with those who need to read this, and let me know your experiences in the comments! 🙏🏽

Nutrition & Health Coaching

My name is Gaia, I have a PhD in Philosophy, I’m a Certified and Recognised Nutrition and Health Coach graduated from Well College Global, and I’m currently completing my level 3 Personal Training Diploma. I’m also a bodybuilder and a food explorer. I’m also member of the UK Health Coaches Association: https://www.ukhealthcoaches.com/england/london/health-coach/gaia-domenici.

Like you, I was living a hectic life, disconnected from my own values, and I was feeling powerless, frustrated and unhappy with my shape, until I learned three great lessons:

You own your life and can change what you don’t like;

Body, mind and spirituality are equally essential for your happiness and self-realisation;
