SH🏳️‍🌈T SARAH SAYS ABOUT LIFE, LIFTING & SELF-LOVE

Named by one of our beloved members, this is where our founder, Sarah, peels back the BS and “I’m good” facade. As a trauma-informed personal trainer, she knows that showing the awesome, the ugly and the weird is all part of embracing who you are.

No fluff - it’s a little bit of training, a lot of mental health, and 100% real and unfiltered thoughts.

“I’ve had my share of struggles with body image and toxic diet culture. So I’m here to share my story and help you change yours.”

Proud

Whilst I won’t be dancing around Mardi Gras wearing a strap on, it’s safe to say I’m pretty fucking proud of who I am.

F🏳️‍🌈k Me Very Much.

The motivation spurred on by a negative experience is undeniable. It’s like post-traumatic growth, but with two middle fingers and a sneer.

I’m not going to go ahead and claim I’m some ballsy bitch who gave their job the middle finger and leapt straight into launching their own business.

Back to me

I was doing this, I had no idea fucking how, but I was. I wasn’t really back to ‘me’ yet, but I was on my way.

Things could be better

Sometimes we just want to be shitty, and indignant, and pissed off.

Fine, some of the time.

It’s not realistic to expect that one day, everything will just magically be OK and we will all live happily ever after without mental illness.

A wise woman once told me that the most satisfying things in life are hard (lol) and she was bloody spot on.
