Meet Jess

Hi I'm Jess, and I want to share a little about myself and my journey into fitness and transforming my life.

Rewind 6 years, and I was working in a 9/6 office job in London. I spent two hours a day commuting back and forth, and I genuinely lived for the weekend. I used to get this feeling of low level anxiety and dread on a Sunday night, as I realised I had another five days of surviving the treadmill of life I found myself on.

I used to think to myself "is this it?" and look back on all the dreams and ideas of life I had as a teenager. I couldn't face the idea of living like this for the rest of my life.

I had a diet that mostly consisted of snacks, junk foods and anything that was quick and easy to shove down before I got back to work or collapsed on the sofa in the evening.

I wasn't exercising at all; in fact, I was hardly moving. I'd sit down for 8 hours in the office, sit down on the train back home, then plonk on the sofa exhausted. I started getting out of shape and out of breath every time I ran 15 seconds to catch the train.

I was coasting through life. Not reaching my potential, not feeling fulfilled, feeling sluggish and frustrated.

My job wasn't my dream, it just paid the bills. But I couldn't see a way out.

I was anxious and my mental health was seriously suffering. I found myself ruminating on worse case scenarios, plaguing my mind with "what ifs" and irrational thoughts. My mind would go round in circles and I had no control over it. It was exhausting and I started to feel depressed and hopeless.

One evening on the way back from work, with the horrible train lights giving me a headache and the packed trains pushing me to my limits, I thought to myself "I'm not living. I'm dying inside and I cannot live my life like this".

I started working out regularly, getting myself into shape and feeling stronger and fitter. I got therapy and worked through what was going on mentally. I wanted to know all there was to know about fitness and mental health, and went on a journey to transform my life, wellbeing and find fulfilment and happiness again.

I can honestly say that taking that first step and doing my first workout was the biggest step and it changed my life. I felt good in my body and my confidence came back. I started demanded more for myself and I ended up quitting my underpaid and overworked lifestyle and starting my dream fitness business.

I felt a relationship that wasn't right for me, worked on my mental health and now honestly feel like anything is posisble.

Now I understand my true purpose.

I want to share my secret with others, to help YOU transform your life and fulfil your purpose. Your health is your biggest asset and it is a starting point of life transformation that seeps into every other aspect of your life.

I believe in a fully rounded approach to personal training; I train your body, of course, but also your mind, your habits and your commitment to living a life that feels bigger and better than ever.

Take that first step, and find out what's possible.
