What do Cher, Jane Fonda and JLo have in common? Besides killer bod, regular training regimes and the love for leotards, none drink alcohol. Despite my love for red wine, I ditched drinking ages ago. Except for an occasional glass of wine every couple of months, I gave up on alcohol because of the terrible impact it has on the human body and mind. Did you know that, besides other nasty effects, alcohol : *Shrinks your brain and makes you depressed and dumb..literally *Shuts off fat loss *Inhibits vitamin and mineral absorption *Inhibits muscle protein synthesis *Damages collagen in the skin (hello wrinkles and cellulite! ) *Damages collagen in the gut lining *Causes inflammation *Lowers testosterone (around 25% after one drinking session) *Increases risk of breast cancer and other cancers (alcohol is now classed number 1 carcinogenic) *Ruins your sleep. Even if you feel like you slept, your growth hormone production is down Going out getting wasted is as old school as using a landline to make a phone call 🤣 I prefer my smart phone šŸ“±

I spend most of my days in ā€œgoā€ mode. Training clients, managing projects, attending events. It’s structured, focused, and productive. In other words, very masculine energy. And while I love it, I’ve learned that staying in that mode 24/7 comes at a cost. That’s why I make time to switch gears. To soften, glam up, connect, feel. Not for vanity, but for balance. In Beyond Mars and Venus, Dr. John Gray explains how women today are often stuck in masculine-mode to meet modern demands. But our nervous systems still crave the feminine. Receptivity, creativity, and emotional connection help us recharge, restore hormones, and avoid burnout. Here’s what happens when you make space for that shift: • Cortisol drops, oxytocin rises: Rest, play, sensuality, and connection all stimulate oxytocin, which lowers stress and improves mood. • Hormonal balance improves: Especially around perimenopause, reconnecting to feminine energy can help counteract low progesterone and chronic fight-or-flight. • You feel more like you: Not just a machine getting things done, but a full-spectrum woman who can be strong and soft, grounded and radiant. So no, the glam isn’t superficial. It’s strategic. It’s self-care. It’s hormone therapy in heels.

The best day with my bestie Emilie šŸƒā€ā™€ļø Coastal run šŸ Our first volley session šŸŠā€ā™€ļø pool šŸŽ¶ Finished with Tina musical We’ve signed up for volley lessons to be able to play this summer. I loved how my friends in Miami catch up after work to play beach volley instead of sitting around bars and pubs. I want to play volleyball this whole summer and maybe hold a volley tournament šŸ† WHO’s IN????

šŸƒā€ā™€ļø Running groups are taking over by storm—and for good reason. šŸƒā€ā™‚ļø From sunrise jogs to post-run coffee hangs, there’s something special about pounding the pavement together. But it’s not just about the camaraderie (though that’s a huge part); the science behind group running is fascinating: 🌟 Endorphin Boost: Running releases endorphins, but studies show that exercising in a group amplifies the feel-good factor. It’s called the ā€œcollective joy effectā€, where shared physical activity enhances mood even more. 🧠 Brain Gains: Running improves cognitive function and reduces stress, but running with others takes it a step further by fostering a sense of connection and belonging—a critical ingredient for mental well-being. šŸ’Ŗ Performance Edge: Did you know running in a group can make you faster? This is thanks to the ā€œKöhler effect,ā€ where you push harder when working as part of a team. It’s like having built-in motivation every step of the way. šŸ¤ Social Fitness: Beyond the physical, group running is a brilliant way to make new friends and expand your social circle. Our love for community vibes and outdoor fitness makes running groups the perfect fit.

One hour at the gym can’t undo 8 hours of sitting. Your body and brain need movement, fresh air, and sunlight—especially if you work in an office. Here’s why: šŸŒž Morning sunlight regulates your circadian rhythm, improving sleep, mood, metabolism, and energy. 🌱 Fresh air boosts brain function, reduces stress, and strengthens your immune system. šŸš¶ā€ā™‚ļø Movement throughout the day keeps your metabolism active and counters the risks of prolonged sitting. Start simple: get outside in the morning and evening, soak up some sun, move your body, and let nature do its magic. Get an office with windows that you can open and stand up desks (this is actually my work dream 🤣) Your health, focus, and mood will thank you.

Isn’t it crazy how eating real, whole foods like meat is considered ā€˜disordered,’ while consuming ultra-processed, synthetic junk is seen as normal? In a world where obesity, diabetes and other non-communicable diseases are common, eating nutrient-dense foods should be celebrated, not criticised. Meat, especially in its pure form, is packed with bioavailable nutrients—more than many fruits and vegetables that have lost up to 50% of their nutrients due to soil depletion. Plus, non-organic produce is often loaded with herbicides and pesticides that are harmful to both our gut and brain. It’s time to rethink what we consider ā€˜normal’—choosing real food isn’t restrictive or extreme, it’s empowering and necessary for health.

Feeling down? šŸƒā€ā™€ļø Lace up and hit the pavement! Science says running is one of the best remedies for sadness. 🌟 Exercise boosts endorphins (your happy hormones) and reduces cortisol (stress hormone), helping to lift your mood naturally. 🌿 Even just 20 minutes of running can spark neurochemical changes in your brain, leaving you feeling calmer and more in control. Extra bonus: running with your besties ā¤ļø
