I BUILT SHESTRONG TO OFFER SUPPORT TO WOMEN I WAS MISSING MYSELF
Built for moms. By a mom. Backed by science.
I'm a certified Pregnancy & Postpartum Athleticism Coach, a specialist qualification focused on training women through pregnancy and back to full performance postpartum. I'm also a qualified Nutritionist.
Together, those two things mean I can look at the whole picture: how you're training, how you're fuelling, where you are in your recovery, and what your body actually needs at this specific stage.
I don't just design workouts. I build programs that account for pelvic floor function, core rehabilitation, hormonal state, sleep deprivation, breastfeeding, cortisol load, and the mental weight of new motherhood - because all of those things affect how your body responds to training and nutrition.
I believe postpartum women don't need to slow down. They need the right information.
I believe strength training is one of the most powerful things a postpartum woman can do for herself, not despite being a mom, but because of it.
I believe nutrition should nourish, not restrict. That macros are a tool, not a punishment. That eating more is often the answer, not the problem.
And I believe that the woman who used to compete, who used to lift heavy, who used to feel powerful in her body - she's still there. She just needs the right coach to help her find her way back.
About Me
I've been competitive and training since young age, have years of experience, qualifications, including pre & postnatal specific.
When I got pregnant, I felt completely lost.
Not because I was lazy, or unmotivated, or didn't know how to train. I'd been an athlete my whole life. I knew how to work hard. What I didn't know was how to work with a pregnant/postpartum body, because the generic advice and guidelines were for the general population, not for women athletes.
The fitness industry has a postpartum problem. The advice falls into two camps: do nothing, or get back to everything as fast as possible. Neither one is right. Neither one is built on what's actually happening in a pregnant and postpartum body - hormonally, physiologically, emotionally.
I went looking for a coach who understood all of that. I couldn't find one.
So I became one.
My approach didn't come from a textbook alone. It came from living it.
Before I became a coach, I was an active woman who lost her period for four years. I struggled with disordered eating, body dysmorphia, and the kind of relationship with food and training that nobody talks about openly, but far more women experience than you'd think.
Those years taught me something that no qualification can: that the fitness industry has a complicated relationship with female health. That pushing harder isn't always the answer. That the woman chasing performance is sometimes the woman who needs the most support, not the least.
It's why my approach to every client, whether she's trying to conceive, navigating pregnancy, or rebuilding postpartum, is wholly holistic.
Training and nutrition are only part of it. Hormonal health, long-term wellbeing, and a healthy relationship with your body are the foundation on which everything else is built.
I coach women as athletes. I also coach them as whole people, individuals with unique needs. Because real, lasting strength, the kind that carries you through motherhood and beyond, has to be built that way.

When I'm not coaching...
I'm a mom first. Which means I know exactly what it's like to try to fit training around a baby's nap schedule. To feel guilty for wanting an hour to yourself. To be exhausted and still show up.
I built SheStrong to be the coach I needed, one who understood all of it. Not just the training science. The whole picture.
