I’ll admit it, I’ve been slack in writing. I don’t really believe in making excuses but I do acknowledge that life sometimes gets in the way and in terms of week 6, I didn’t really have much in the way of an update in exercise or healthy eating...

Apologies for combining Weeks 4 and 5, but as I was due to be travelling in Week 5 and 6, it all got a little bit manic at home and at work, so I’ve had to combine the two. Training did not stop, it just had to fit into a different schedule and took different...

PTSD Part 1 This is Week 3 and it’s been a tough one to write about, not because the diet and exercise was hard, but because part of this journey has to be about acknowledging emotional healing and that involves “coming clean” in a way that many...

When it comes to Personal Trainers, there is no doubt I am currently training with THE two ‘best of the best’ trainers in the industry. Both are two-time world champions in their sport and wonderful people to boot, which helps when someone is going to insist on 100...

As a Leadership Coach, I have to lead myself first, lead by example, make the changes I support my clients through and basically live the ethos of my coaching. And now feels like a great time to demonstrate that and take you with me on that journey. It is important to...

I haven’t updated for quite some time, not since the end of my no alcohol challenge which feels like a lifetime ago now. So many things are different since then but somehow still the same. Certified or Certifiable? I am now a Certified Personal Trainer having...

As we all wind down our week towards Christmas and then the start of 2018, I am able to outright state that this year could not end soon enough. Don’t get me wrong, my positive disposition means that I have managed to come up with an overwhelmingly awesome list...

Have you ever had a “To Do” list a mile long will which keeps getting bumped into next week? Or maybe even next month? I’ve had some items that I have bumped into the next year and believe me when I say I have seen people bump things they define as...

This was a week of firsts. The first time I have been to watch a cricket match and not had any alcohol. The first Braai (South African Barbecue) this year with no alcohol. And finally the first weigh in since giving up alcohol two weeks ago. I was quite excited for...

I am a workaholic, a people person and an ideas driven, creative person so perhaps one would wonder why I would set myself up to be a entrepreneur. Believe me, I ask myself that quite frequently, especially when it gets to 9pm and I have once again forgotten to have...

The short answer is you might need one, or a combination of all three modalities to help you to move forward, for the sake of clarity, let’s break each one down to help you make an informed decision. I have used all three modalities in my own life as...

My fitness journey began in earnest in 2008, when I discovered Kickboxing. I joined a new dojo and quickly became addicted. Kickboxing was my first fitness love. I trained 3 times as week, every week for 8 months. Only taking a break to go home for Christmas, that was...

At the end of April 2017, I left my Corporate job for the scary world of the Entrepreneur. Well meaning folk tried to talk me out of it, reminding me how well I was being remunerated, but completely overlooking the fact that I was miserable. I wasn’t thriving. I...
