My whole life, I struggled with weight and self-image issues. At school, I was known as the “fat kid”. I got bullied and suffered in silence with an eating disorder for many years. I tried every fad and quick-fix diet in the book. And none of it made me feel better about myself.
It wasn’t until I realised that fitness should be about loving your body, not hating it, that I started making real, positive change.
I realised that, yes, you can have balance. You can eat the things you love and still be healthy. Physically and mentally. And that your journey starts with kindness. Not judgement.
That’s why I started Empower. To help women avoid the mistakes I made. To stop swinging from one extreme to the other. To discover that a sustained, healthy lifestyle can actually be easy. Effortless. Even fun!

As soon as restrictions were lifted, she joined a gym and discovered bodybuilding – from here, her life exceeded all expectations! She went on to complete her Level 3 Personal Trainer and Level 5 Nutrition course and in doing so, has now made it her mission to help women in similar circumstances break free from these cycles and gain confidence in themselves again!
