Coach Marina Hardiman

Coach Marina Hardiman I coach people on how to create sustainable habits and better their relationship with food/movement.

I do this by teaching how to link your life with habits and behaviours you would like to create with food/movement with accountability & support.

Stop making your calories earn your trust in 5 days.
That’s what you’re doing.

You start a deficit.
You’re consistent.
You’re doing everything “right.”

Then the scale doesn’t move and suddenly it’s:
“Maybe this isn’t working.”
“Maybe my calories are wrong.”
“Maybe I need to change something.”

So you change your actions.
Or you stop.

And then you end up right back where you started, thinking the deficit failed.

It didn’t.

You just didn’t stay long enough to see it work.

Fat loss doesn’t show up cleanly.
It’s masked by water, stress, hormones, food volume.

But instead of understanding that you react to the scale like it’s the full picture.

If this is you, DM me the word “COACHING” for more information 💜💪🏼

You’ve done the maths. You’ve eaten less. You’ve moved more.
So why isn’t it working?

This is the question I get more than any other. And the answer isn’t what most coaches will tell you.

It’s not that you’re miscounting.
It’s not that you need to eat less.
It’s that the calorie deficit, on its own, without context-doesn’t account for what your body is actually doing.

Stress hormones.
Under-fuelling patterns.
The signals your nervous system is receiving about safety and scarcity.

The numbers aren’t the problem.
What’s happening around the numbers is.

15/52…why is it this hard to keep count of the weeks! 🤣 a wholesome week with a lot of personal time.

8️⃣ the best day surrounded by business owners at the circle ⭕️ meet up
9️⃣ a whole weekend with my two favourite boys, being an auntie is my best title!

My cup is truly filled after this week!

She won’t track her food because it’s “toxic” but she’s been stuck in a toxic cycle for years.

Skipping meals.
Picking at food.
Overeating at night.
Starting again every Monday.

That’s not balance.
That’s confusion.

And confusion feels safer than clarity.

Because the second it’s written down you can’t say “I barely eat” anymore.

You have to face what’s actually happening.

I avoided this for years.

Had the knowledge.
Had the degree.
Still couldn’t apply it to my own life.

Not because I didn’t know what to do but because I wasn’t being honest about what I was doing.

Clarity changed everything.

Not another plan.
Not more motivation.

Just finally seeing it for what it was.

DM “TRUST” if you’re ready to stop guessing.

The irony isn’t lost on me that I spent years not being able to figure out my own body, while holding a degree that said I absolutely should.

But knowing something and living it are two completely different things. And no amount of 6 week programs or miracle apps were going to bridge that gap for me.

That one took me a while to figure out.

If you already know what to do but can’t make it stick, that’s exactly who I work with.

Most women don’t have a fat loss problem.
They have a life that leaves them with nothing left to give themselves.

You can’t out-train exhaustion.
You can’t “be more disciplined” when your entire day is spent giving everything to your job.

So what happens?

You skip training.
You eat whatever’s quickest.
You tell yourself you’ll start again Monday.
And you repeat it, every single week.

That’s not lack of effort.
That’s a burnout cycle.

And no one is calling it out.

You are replaceable in your job.
But you are the only one responsible for your health, your energy, your life.

If your job is getting the best of you and you’re getting what’s left, then that’s the problem.

DM me “READY” if you’re done living like this.

Another 12 week plan. Another “this time it’s different.”

And then week 4 hits. Life gets busy. You miss a day. Then two. And suddenly you’re back to square one wondering what’s wrong with you.

Nothing is wrong with you.

You were given a plan built for someone who doesn’t have your job, your schedule, your life. And you tried to force yourself around it instead of the other way around.

That’s not a discipline problem.
That’s a plan problem.

DM me “PLAN” and I’ll show you what it looks like when the plan actually fits your life.

She didn’t have a food problem.

She had a pattern:
Skipping meals.
Bingeing on sugary snacks.
Not looking after herself.

Fed up with how she looked and how she felt.

So she told herself:
“I just need to try harder.”

But trying harder without direction?
That’s what keeps you stuck.

What she actually needed was clarity.
Direction that made sense.
Support she could rely on.

And that’s when things changed.

More energy.
Feeling stronger.
Finally prioritising herself.

“We prioritise everyone else and meet everyone else’s needs.
Maybe now it’s time to meet yours.”

Her words.

DM me the word “CHANGE” if you are ready to end this cycle 💜

Don’t restrict or catastrophise today!

I thoroughly enjoyed yesterday and after having no snacks for lent, I enjoyed every bite!

Today however, no guilt, no frustration, no restriction, just normal routine.

Don’t bully yourself today, be kind and go about your day as normal!

If you struggle with this, DM me “HEALTH” to learn more. 1:1 doors open for April 20th!

Real talk-women come to me and tell me they chose me because of what I do, not how I look. And honestly? That means everything.

I’m not a size 6 coach. What I AM is a woman who runs, lifts heavy, cycles, eats food she loves, and wakes up every day with genuine energy and love for her life. No restriction. No guilt. No dreading photos or avoiding mirrors. Movement and food are part of my life-not my obsession.

That is living proof that you don’t need to shrink yourself or chase some industry standard to feel incredible.

I coach women to be strong. To have energy that carries them through the day. To have total food freedom, no guilt, no rules, no mental noise.

And to look in the mirror and actually love what they see-not because of how they look, but because of how they feel.

If you’ve been looking for a coach who doesn’t just preach it but lives it-I’m here.

Real life. Real balance. Real results that last.

DM me the word “HEALTH” if you are ready to have more confidence, energy and more balance 💜
