This is why I created Athena. 🔱

Not for before and after photos or for shrinking bodies.
But for moments like these.

For the woman who can pick up and carry her child again.
For the woman whose head finally feels a little quieter.
For the woman who used to dread exercise but now actually looks forward to it.
For the woman who’s finally making time for herself, without feeling guilty about it.

These are real messages from women currently going through Athena.

And we’re only six weeks in.

Strength training is about SO much more than what you can lift in the gym.

It’s about what that strength gives you outside of it.

And I couldn’t be prouder of these women. 🖤

This is Athena. 🔱

And if you’ve been watching from the sidelines, wondering whether strength training could be for you, here’s your chance.

🔥 Our FINAL Athena intake of 2026 starts Monday 2nd November!

Enrolment is OPEN NOW for our 8-week strength programme, designed for women navigating perimenopause, menopause and beyond.

No experience needed. No pressure to keep up with anyone else. Just expert coaching, progressive strength training and a supportive community of women getting stronger together.

💌 Ready to make yourself a priority? Drop me a message with ATHENA and I’ll send you all the details. 🔱

🎙️ What is strength training actually for?

For me, it’s never just been about how much weight you can lift.

It’s carrying the shopping. Getting up off the floor. Walking up the stairs. Playing with your kids or grandkids. Staying capable and independent.

Because if we want our bodies to keep doing these things later in life, we need to give them a reason to stay strong.

“If you don’t look after your body, how do you expect your body to look after you later on in life?”

I loved getting the chance to talk about this on the Koast Radio Health & Wellbeing Show 🎙️

We covered strength training, women’s health, perimenopause, menopause, Athena 🔱 and why I’m so passionate about helping women get stronger — at every stage of life.

So I’m going to be sharing a few snippets from our conversation over the next few weeks.

Starting with this one.

Strength isn’t just about what you can lift.
It’s about what your body allows you to do. 🔱

How lucky am I? 🥹

To be invited on the radio to talk about something I’m so incredibly passionate about. To share a little bit of the business we’ve spent almost 10 years building and the programme that’s become such a huge part of my life.

I was SO nervous this morning. But I did it. And I absolutely loved it.

The messages, the shout-outs, the friends tuning in, the incredible women supporting other women. Honestly, it’s meant more than you know.

To every woman who’s been part of Athena over the last three years, past and present, thank you. You’ve helped shape this programme into what it is today, and I’m so bloody proud of what we’re building together. 🔱

I always tell my kids, “You can do hard things.”
And sometimes I think we need to take a bit of our own advice.

Put yourself out there. Say yes to the opportunity. Do the thing that makes you nervous. You don’t have to feel completely confident or have it all figured out before you give something a go. You might just surprise yourself.

Today was a little reminder that we’re capable of more than we sometimes give ourselves credit for.
And that we are enough. Just as we are.

Here’s to doing more of the scary things. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who tuned in today. It really did mean the world. 🔱

And a really big thank you to Lucy and Glenda for having me on their wellness show it was great to chat, and of course Mr Koast himself for linking me up 🫶🏻

One week in. Three sessions. And already, a shift in mindset. 🔱
From feeling intimidated by the thought of being in a gym to finding it motivating.
From struggling to stick to a routine to actually enjoying showing up.
Just a woman making time for herself, building confidence and discovering what she’s capable of.

This is where strength starts.
And this is exactly why Athena exists.

Want to know more? Drop me a message.

A little bit of exciting Athena news… I’m heading to Koast Radio next Tuesday! 🎙️🔱

Talking all things strength training, menopause, why Athena exists and busting a few myths along the way.

Tune in Tuesday 22nd 📻
Can’t wait! 🔱

This is what playing the long game looks like. 🔱

Nearly two years of consistent strength training after starting her journey with Athena.

Marguerite came to us having struggled with significant back pain, and although she still feels the odd thing she is in a much better position than she used to be.

This week she deadlifted 100kg — and recently held a GHD back extension for a full 2 minutes, showing just how much strength and endurance she’s built along the way.

She’s post-menopause and still getting stronger. And that’s the message I want women to take from this.

Menopause isn’t a point where we simply accept becoming weaker or less capable. We can continue to build strength. We can continue to build capacity. We can continue to progress.

Athena may have been part of where it started but consistency is what got her here.

Hit ❤️ and show Marguerite some love for that 100kg 🔱

Why isn’t Athena pink? 🤔

Because I never wanted Athena to look like something that had simply been packaged up and marketed “for women”.

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with pink. I actually love the colour.

But somewhere along the way, women’s health — and particularly the menopause space — became very easy to stereotype. Make it pink. Put “menopause” on it. Sell it to women.

Athena was deliberately built differently 🔱

I wanted it to feel strong, professional and timeless because that reflects the women it was created for. Women don’t need strength training dressed up as something softer to make it suitable for them.

They need good coaching, appropriate programming, support and the opportunity to discover just how capable they actually are.

That’s Athena. 🔱

September enrolment is now in its final few days.

Enrolment closes 31st August.

You don’t need to feel ready. You just need to be ready to start. 🔱

Athena was created for women who want to strength train but need the structure, support and confidence to actually begin — and keep going.

No previous strength training experience needed. No expectation that you already know your way around a gym.

Just three sessions a week and a willingness to learn.

Sometimes the hardest part is simply starting.

Karen did — and she didn’t have to do it alone. 🔱

Our next Athena starts this September and enrolment closes 31st August.

Thinking about it? Maybe send this to the friend you’d do it with 👀

DM ATHENA for details.

Sometimes strength training gives you more than strength. 🔱

Accountability. Friendship. A reason to show up on the days you really can’t be bothered… and apparently plenty of laughing along the way 😂

I loved Angela’s words about why training alongside Karen works so well for them.

They were friends long before Athena, but strength training has become another part of that friendship — and something they’ve continued long after completing the programme.

Athena returns this September.

If you’ve been thinking about starting, maybe this is your sign to grab a friend and do it together. 👀

Enrolment closes 31st August.

DM ATHENA for the details. 🔱
