It’s never too late!
1. Can you give us a snapshot of your big life shift?
When I was 40, I hit rock bottom. I found out I was pregnant at 38 just a couple of weeks after my relationship broke up –I went through my darkest days. I effectively became a single mum and I was at the point of wanting to take my own life, but I knew I couldn’t risk anything happening to my baby.
At that moment, I decided to get my physical and mental health on track – I wanted to be a happy, healthy and engaged parent.
I became a personal trainer and studied nutritional medicine, and then I started my own business. I’ve been a single mum for 12 years now, and I’ve continued to learn and grow and develop myself further, and supporting other women to harness the magic of their body, mind and soul.
Last year I relocated from Orange NSW to the Gold Coast - my 40s were incredible, and my 50s will be amazing too.
2. What’s your advice to women over 40 who are looking to transform their lives?
You’re never too old and it’s never too late! So often women accept where they are in life as their only way of ‘being’, simply because they’ve become caught up in their role of wife, partner, mother, career woman or carer of everyone and everything else and they forget who they are. Transformation doesn’t have to be scary or hard, think of it as an adventure.
