For more than 30 years, I’ve helped women get stronger, fitter, healthier and happier in themselves.<\/p>\n

And their journeys have been very different.<\/p>\n

Some wanted to lose weight.
Some wanted to get moving again.
Some needed to find confidence.
Some simply needed someone to help them see things differently.<\/p>\n

These are a few of their stories.<\/p>\n

From barely walking to getting back to the hills.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Iola came to me struggling with sciatica, stenosis and spondylosis. Three years ago, she could hardly walk to the end of her lane.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Slowly, steadily, she started moving again \u2014 using my online workouts and a regular dose of encouragement.<\/p>\n

And now?<\/p>\n

She’s out hill walking.<\/p>\n

\u201cHere I am out hill walking \u2014 what’s so encouraging is that 3 years ago I could hardly walk to the end of the lane, due to sciatica, stenosis and spondylosis.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cNoelle’s twice weekly workouts online and the regular ‘kick up the bum’ has played a huge part in getting me back to the hills.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe workouts are so suitable to any level, so I was slowly able to push myself to the higher level.\u201d<\/p>\n

Iola is refreshingly honest about still having weight to lose \u2026 but that’s not what makes this story remarkable.<\/p>\n

Getting back to the hills does.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Several stone lighter \u2014 and finally loving what she sees in the mirror.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rhi had spent years focusing on the scales.<\/p>\n

One simple piece of advice from yours truly changed the way she approached things:<\/p>\n

\u201cMake a change to make a change.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

She took responsibility for her own choices, learned about accountability and stopped letting the scales tell her how she should feel about herself.<\/p>\n

Cold-water swimming helped too!<\/p>\n

\u201cYou continue to inspire me. Of all your words of wisdom, \u2018make a change to make a change\u2019 has been key to my weight loss of several stone.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cYou taught me accountability, taking photos of myself rather than watching scales.\u201d<\/p>\n

And perhaps my favourite bit:<\/p>\n

\u201cI’ve started to love what I see looking back at me in the mirror, even the little age lines when I smile.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

That is a result worth celebrating.<\/strong><\/p>\n

No more Mrs Blobby.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Linda is a keen horsewoman and runner, but pain kept getting in the way.<\/p>\n

Whenever she stopped running, she gained weight. And the more she tried to push through the problem, the more frustrated she became.<\/p>\n

Then we had a Borrow My Mojo<\/strong> call.<\/p>\n

We talked about listening to her body rather than fighting it. Resting more. Walking instead of always running. Protein. Stretching. Recovery.<\/p>\n

Nothing extreme.\u00a0 Just a different way of looking at things.<\/p>\n

And Linda took it on from there.<\/p>\n

She retaught herself a riding position that didn’t cause pain, became one of the most active people I know, \u00a0and continues to enjoy caring for her beloved horses.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo more Mrs Blobby.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

And my verdict?<\/p>\n

Linda is a total star.<\/strong><\/p>\n

CARON<\/h2>\n

From serial dieting to the woman she always wanted to be.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Caron had spent much of her life trying to lose weight.<\/p>\n

She was a serial weight-loss-club member, constantly yo-yo dieting \u2026 \u00a0increasingly, none of it was fun anymore.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A glamorous, vivacious woman, she didn’t feel able to dress the way she wanted.<\/p>\n

She’d also developed a cardiovascular issue which made her wary of exercise.<\/p>\n

So we started very simply.
Walking.
Then some work on her husband’s rowing machine.
Then strength work.<\/p>\n

And within weeks, something rather wonderful happened.<\/p>\n

She started selling her beautiful clothes because they were far too big.<\/strong><\/p>\n

But that’s only the beginning of Caron’s story.<\/p>\n

Eight or so years later, she has lost substantial weight, and gone from strength to strength.<\/p>\n

She’s joined fitness classes.<\/p>\n

She’s qualified as a Personal Trainer herself.<\/p>\n

And she now teaches the very class she used to attend.<\/strong><\/p>\n

From worrying about exercise…<\/strong><\/p>\n

…to becoming the woman who teaches it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Caron is now the glamorously active and gorgeous woman she always wanted to be. <\/strong><\/p>\n

And she bought a gold sequin trouser suit, \u201cjust because she could\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Breaking the yo-yo cycle<\/strong><\/p>\n

After years of yo-yo dieting, this wasn’t about finding another diet. It was about building healthier habits which Gill could actually live with \u2026 and feeling more confident about her future.<\/p>\n

\u201cWorking with Noelle has been such a journey of motivation and empowerment. After years of struggling with my weight and going from one diet to another, I was really worried about my health and where I was heading. Noelle’s encouraging and supportive approach has helped me make changes that actually fit into my life. Rather than another quick-fix diet, she has helped me understand how to look after myself in a way I can sustain.<\/p>\n

I feel healthier, stronger and much more confident that I can keep going.<\/p>\n

Most importantly, I feel like I’ve finally broken the cycle of starting again.<\/p>\n

Noelle’s knowledge, compassion and genuine passion for helping women make lasting changes are second to none. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lisa wasn’t particularly interested in making a New Year’s resolution. But with a big birthday approaching, she started wondering whether her relatively sedentary lifestyle was really going to serve her well for the next ten years.<\/strong><\/p>\n

She knew something needed to change \u2014 but she’d lost her confidence and didn’t know where to start.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith a big birthday coming up, I started thinking seriously about my fitness and wondering how my body would cope through the next decade if I carried on with my relatively sedentary life. I knew I had to turn things around, but I’d lost my confidence and didn’t know where to start.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

After finding me online, we started with a chat and then built a programme around strength, mobility and flexibility<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Twice-weekly 1:1 sessions gradually changed much more than her physical fitness.<\/p>\n

\u201cNoelle’s knowledge, experience and encouragement has vastly improved not only my physical fitness, but also my confidence and motivation to take on challenges.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

And those challenges have included joining Shrewsbury Parkrun \u2013 and a Half Marathon!\u00a0 <\/strong>These felt unrealistic and out of reach w<\/strong>hen we first met.<\/p>\n

\u201cI now feel confident enough to take on challenges, whether that’s joining the Shrewsbury Parkrun, or just knowing I can climb two flights of stairs without hesitation.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

And interestingly, weight loss wasn’t really the point.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough I have lost a couple of pounds, weight loss wasn’t my primary goal. The real change has been in my body composition, which has vastly improved. I feel so much better.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

She’s now a regular Park-runner, with new running challenges ahead.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The result?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Stronger. Fitter. More confident. And looking forward to what the next decade might bring.<\/strong><\/p>\n

IT’S NOT ALWAYS ABOUT LOSING WEIGHT.<\/h1>\n

Sometimes the result is getting back on a hill.<\/p>\n

Sometimes it’s becoming stronger.<\/p>\n

Sometimes it’s learning to listen to your body.<\/p>\n

Sometimes it’s putting on clothes you love again.<\/p>\n

Sometimes it’s simply looking in the mirror and liking the woman looking back.<\/p>\n

And sometimes…<\/strong><\/p>\n

it’s discovering that you’re capable of far more than you thought.<\/strong><\/p>\n

WHAT WILL YOUR STORY BE?<\/strong><\/p>\n

You don’t need to be fitter.
You don’t need to lose weight.
You don’t need to have everything sorted.<\/p>\n

You just need to decide that you’d like something to change.<\/p>\n

And that’s where we can start.<\/strong><\/p>\n
