Through my path of being diagnosed with MS 11 years ago and winning a European Masters Weightlifting Championship at the age of 60 last year. I muscled my way out of illness and I now help midlife women deal with a host of health symptoms by building muscle and strength. My story made me change my career from journalism to coaching and I’m on an empowering muscle mission to help women claim their place and their happiness in midlife. Focusing on muscle (beyond just training and eating) can be a powerful driver of overcoming and transformation because it puts you in a spirit of building and nurturing and gives you bucketloads of confidence.
