My Story
And why you don’t need the same one.
I Wasn't Broken. I Was Just Wired Differently.
For 22 years, I lived with undiagnosed ADHD. On the outside, I was thriving — building a personal training business, running ultra-marathons, and constantly moving. But inside, I was exhausted, stuck in cycles of burnout, and carrying an invisible weight I couldn’t name.
Getting diagnosed didn’t bring immediate clarity. It brought conflict. Relief and grief. Shame and self-awareness. Because ADHD — especially in women — is deeply misunderstood. It’s not just about being “distracted” or “disorganised.” It’s not just a trend. It’s a nervous system difference. A sensitivity to the world that runs deep, through your body, emotions, relationships, and life.
For years, I tried to fix myself. Through therapy, coaching, control, performance, and pushing myself harder — physically, mentally, emotionally. I tried to out-discipline my own brain.
ADHD doesn’t need to be fixed. It just needs to be understood.
And understanding begins with acceptance. Not the shallow, TikTok-self-care kind — the deep, radical, griefy kind. The kind where you start asking:
What if I’m not the problem? What if the world was never built with me in mind?
I’ve worked with over 150 women in the last 5 years in my Personal Training & Coaching business. Women who, like me, have lived in the shadows of shame, anxiety, burnout, guilt, and the constant, low-level ache of “not good enough.” Many of them now call me their coach. Some have become my closest friends.
That’s why I do this.
I’m now a fully qualified ADHD Coach & Practitioner, and an ICP&M Certified Life Transformation Coach. I work with brilliant, overwhelmed women who are ready to stop masking, stop spiralling, and start creating a life that works with their brain, not against it.
I still love training. I still run. But my heart lives here — in these words, in this mission, in this work.
Because change needs to happen. And I’m not going to wait for someone else to do it.
