Bit of a different post today… I wanted to share my experience of testing positive for Coronavirus. I know that it affects people very differently so I thought I’d sum up my experience and how it affected me, and how I am now. I tested positive on the 18th October, so it’s been a little while now so I can also talk about some of …

My Breast Reduction Story
I had a breast reduction on 7th August 2018 – so two years ago as I write this. For reference, I was 20 at the time. I spoke about it pretty openly at the time and shared bits of the journey on my Instagram stories (in the days before my fitness account existed) but since everything healed up and I went about my normal life …

Day In The Life: Personal Trainer (in Lockdown)
I wrote this post on one of my busiest weeks in lockdown, so it’s worth noting that this isn’t what my life is like all the time, I’d probably die. One of the best things about being a Personal Trainer is being self employed (which obviously has its pros and cons) and so you can choose your own hours and do what works for you …

My Lockdown Highlights
I originally called this ‘My Lockdown Achievements’ but I’m not sure whether the things I wanted to include could count as achievements or just highlights. Also, I didn’t want it to be a brag in any way, just to spread some positivity and bring light to things that I’m proud of or have been enjoying whilst being stuck at home for the last 3 months.

2020 Round Up: Part 1
2020 has been an eventful year for everyone, but I feel like I had a particularly hectic start and wanted to share and round up the first six months of this year and what it’s been like for me.

What It’s Like Being a Dance Student in Lockdown
This might turn into a bit of rant… apologies in advance. Some of it will apply to all students, some specific to being on a dance course like I am, some of which may also apply to other practical or creative courses. This is my personal experience of the unfolding events of Covid-19.

Celebrating a Birthday in Lockdown
If you’ve also had a birthday in lockdown, happy belated birthday! I hope yours was enjoyable too. Personally, I was up for cancelling my birthday and just staying 21 at least until lockdown is over (I feel like I finally understand why adults lying about their age choose 21 as their age), but I actually ended up having one of the best birthdays I’ve ever …

My Post Quarantine To-Do List
I know I said I was done with the Quarantine content, but I guess I’m not just yet… I got the idea for this post from Hannah (who happens to be my flatmate), please go and read her post here. Everyone’s asking, “What’s the first thing you’ll do after lockdown?” and honestly it’s a hard question to answer, there’s so many things I have no …

My Fit Pro Journey
“What’s a Fit Pro?” I hear you ask. It just stands for Fitness Professional! A few people have asked me how I got into fitness so I thought I’d map it all out for you. I was always a chubby kid with absolutely no interest in exercise or sport of any kind, with the exception of my weekly dance classes. I didn’t start to take …
