In 2016, I underwent surgery to help resolve these chronic issues. This was a major turning point in my life – when I was at the lowest point in my adult life – and it kickstarted a new lifestyle, as I embarked on a fitness and wellness journey. I did pilates regularly, I picked up strength training, I did dance and barre.

“It was terrifying to go back to contemporary dance and ballet as an adult because everyone else in the class is so young, but dance was something I badly wanted to do again – so I did.”

I've since gained back some weight due to muscle gain and opening my diet back up to include and embrace carbs and happy foods and I'm still working on that balance of a healthy mindset and body.

“Many life changes have taken place since but I'm excited for the journey ahead and to keep encouraging and inspiring people around me to live wholly in search of purpose and creativity.”
