For as long as I can remember, I have struggled with my weight. Overweight all my life, I’ve faced not just the physical challenges that come with carrying extra pounds, but also the emotional and mental toll it takes. On top of that, chronic health conditions have been constant companions, adding layers of complexity and difficulty to everyday life. Many of the obstacles I’ve encountered will be shared in other posts, but they all weave together to tell the story of why I’m here today.

For years, I worked in the corporate world—a place that, while stable and familiar, never quite felt like home. Deep inside, there was a calling, a pull toward something more meaningful. I realised that my true passion lies in helping others achieve better health and wellbeing. I want to be a source of support, guidance, and inspiration for those who, like me, have struggled with their bodies and their health.

But before I can fully step into this dream career, I know I need to sort myself out first. This journey is as much about self-discovery and healing as it is about helping others. It’s about reclaiming my health, overcoming my weight and chronic health battles, and building the strength and knowledge I need to make a real difference.

This blog is my diary—a place where I document my struggles, my victories, and everything in between. Here, I’ll share my experiences training for my dream career, the ups and downs of my health journey, and the lessons I learn along the way. It’s a space of honesty and hope, a testament to the power of resilience and the possibility of transformation.

I’m here because I believe it’s never too late to change, to heal, and to follow your true calling. And I hope that by sharing my story, I can encourage others to do the same. Together, we can face life’s obstacles with courage, take control of our health, and build a future filled with purpose and wellbeing.
