Why Learn with Me ?
I understand the unique nature of the fitness industry and why Fit Pro’s continue to train women as small men.
(Hint: It is not because they don’t care! However, the education Fitness Professionals recieve is based on the research of young fit men)
My expertise comes from:
- Running my own sole-trade fitness business and growing it to an award-winning franchise
- Working personally with hundreds and through my franchises, thousands of women
- Being on the Skills IQ panel that reviews Cert III and IV in fitness – I know exactly what Fit Pro’s learn to work with women through their different life stages (and it is not much)
- Starting my career as a teacher, then working in the fitness industry – now I write and deliver education to fitness professionals across the globe – I know how people learn
In 2021 I was awarded Educator of the Year award – from AUSactive (formerly Fitness Australia).
In 2022, I was finalist for Educator of the Year from Exercise New Zealand.

In 2021 I was given the Fitness Australia Educator of the Year award – I bring my expertise on training women to both women who are trained and those who train them.
My unique skill set is pedagogy – the science of how people learn. The magic of learning a new skill is universal. Most facilitators believe that we teach by telling. That the learner is an empty cup that needs to be “filled” with knowledge.
For any student to have the most effective learning experience, the teacher must possess a deep understanding of the learning process, be able to dial into this intuitively and be able to deliver education in a variety of ways to cater to all learning styles. I have developed and perfected these skills.
I am both a creative and intuitive teacher.
My passion has been around women’s health. I have been disgusted at the lack of resources, research and general understanding around training women through the different life phases (pre-pregnancy, pregnancy, post-natal, perimenopause, menopause and older women).
We are not little men. We have hormonal differences. We have muscular and skeletal differences. Understanding these differences, is not only good for women (and those who identify as women) but good for business.
This passion has motivated me to:
- Create training programs and systems to safely work with pregnant, postnatal women and older women
- Write education for fitness professionals so they can deliver better services to the women they train
- Start the Women’s Health and Fitness Summit – an event that for five years brought together fitness professionals and allied health professionals to build better models of inclusive care for women across Australia

My Approach
“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together”
– African proverb
The magic lies in working together.
Collaboration
Just think of the limitless possibilities collaboration can offer! Throughout my career I have had the great pleasure to work with, learn from and create magic with others!
Kindness
I believe in making regular deposits into the Universal Bank of Kindness. Because you never know when you are going to need to make a withdrawal.
Making a difference
I acknowledge my privilege by using my voice, connections, experience and education to support others to create a community that I am proud to be a part of.

My Successes
I have been at the forefront of driving a change in how both women are trained and promoting the importance of Allied Health and fitness working together to create more effective health models in Australia.
I have developed a number of courses (EVEolution™, mishfit mothers™ and mummy sweat™) that were delivered to our clientele. I created and delivered the matching training programs, manuals and workshops for Fitness Professionals to deliver these programs consistently in their own fitness businesses.
I created the Women’s Health and Fitness Summit (2014 – 2019) to bring together, create relationships and deepen our respect and understanding of the unique role that both fitness and allied health professionals play.
When we work together, we create more effective holistic health outcomes for all women.
