The last picture sums me up perfectly.

There is a long list of positive reasons to why exercise and eating well is beneficial. HOWEVER the meaning YOU attach to it, can have the opposite effect.

If I am honest with myself, my journey after so many years of disordered eating and self esteem has only come to being managed its best now. I don’t think it’s something that will end, but with consistent checking in with myself, prioritising mental health, allowing genuine relationships, mindfulness and finding balance, creates the clarity needed to manage it and not let it be the default way of doing life.

I was stuck in a dangerous cycle of using ‘being healthy’ as an excuse for:

- exercising to earn food
- restricting/perfecting my eating to gain control, when feeling out of control
- feeling that looking a certain way makes me more acceptable
- exercising to prove I’m productive
- feeling like an imposter if I wasn’t ‘strong’/bulking (because that’s what was popular)

Reasons like these for me are rooted by past events that now get triggered, and a good coach will understand that everyone has underlying reasons/triggers/constructs that push them to make changes. A good coach will help you uncover those (or recommend to seek professional support) and work through both mental and physical aspects it takes to be healthy and happy, inside and out. Which is something I wish I understood years ago.

Your fitness and healthy habits should be done because you simply enjoy it, not for anyone else, not for any standard set by society and not because that’s what you ‘think’ you should enjoy.

Getting back to basics is key. It doesn’t have to be complicated and it doesn’t have to cost you anything but giving it the time to work (which can often be quicker than thought).

If you relate with any of the above, you are not alone. It’s still something that needs breaking down, deconstructing and encouraged in a new direction on social media.

I will be taking applications for online coaching again in the coming weeks.

And if any of the above resonates with you, you’re interested to find out more or need a chat, feel free to drop me a DM ☺️🤍

It's all about finding what works for you, not what is perfect.

Sometimes, a much needed pause creates clarity and gives a chance for dust to settle and see reality exactly as it is.
You may not like what is there but it gives opportunity to create sustainable change from an honest base.

And from that, I am officially back and available to coach.

In the space I needed to finish studying while working full time, and encounter a few good lessons (because lets be honest, what is life without a few spanners in the works) I’m putting together a life where I can still work my job but also fulfill my love of fitness and coaching others.

It will probably be messy, a bit clunky and stressful at times, but that’s exactly what it’s all about - and I’m willing to share that experience and figure it out together with clients who feel in a similar space.
A coach should never be on a pedestal, but more a peer that helps keeps you accountable.

Empire Mind is back up and available to take a couple of clients at a time, for those who want to improve their fitness but also be able to unpack the mentality behind it, because I firmly believe they go hand in hand and have found success in that way.

Come find me a couple of days per week at (for in person) and online.

If I can answer any questions for you, don’t hesitate to ask or send me an enquiry through my linktree.

Here's to the next chapter.
