Hi, I’m Ash. I’m a personal trainer, nutrition & mindset coach. This is where I let you in on a little secret…
I wasn’t always the fit kid!
My life hasn’t always looked the way it does today, and I definitely haven’t always made the smartest choices when my health was concerned. As a child I was never interested in sports, as a teenager I struggled with disordered eating, and as a young adult I wondered why I didn’t look like all of the girls featured on the covers of the magazines. I’m so grateful that social media came along after those phases of my life!
At 21 I became a mum, and I very quickly learned that my mum was right, the world actually didn’t revolve around me! So, there I was, with a tiny little human looking to me to set an example, to teach them how to be strong, resilient, and respectful of life. I knew the only way I could do that was to lead by example, and I needed to live a long, healthy life so I could continue to be that example as they grew.
What did I do? Well, cliche as it may sound, it started with a choice. I chose me. I stopped binging on the Arnott’s my mum bought for afternoon tea, I started moving my body, I learned about nutrition and I was consistent. It took time, it was hard, but you know what? I’ve never looked back!
