"I felt 'stuck' - I slowly felt myself slipping away". Mel's Transformative Experience in 1:1 with Tracy...

In 2024, my husband was diagnosed with throat cancer, & the following 18 months became a blur

1:1 with Tracy gave me the space, structure & support I had been missing.

I am incredibly proud of what I’ve achieved. I feel more like me again — stronger, happier, & with a renewed sense of confidence & positivity.

I have attended Tracy’s classes for years,  I’ve always valued her expertise, her compassion, & the way she instinctively knows how to support every person in the room. So when I reached a point where I felt stuck, I knew that 1:1 with Tracy was exactly what I needed.

In 2024, my husband was diagnosed with throat cancer, & the following 18 months became a blur of appointments, scans, test results, & treatments. During that time, I did my best to keep some normality — still attending classes when I could & generally eating well — but I slowly felt myself slipping away. I wasn’t happy with how I felt, how my clothes fitted, or how little confidence I had left. I knew something needed to change.

Working 1:1 with Tracy gave me the space, structure & support I had been missing. Having dedicated time each week allowed me to focus on me — something I hadn’t done for a long time. Together, we set goals based on where I was at, not where I felt I “should” be & having someone to be accountable to made all the difference. On top of the physical training, Tracy helped me understand where I was going wrong with certain aspects of my nutrition. With just a few small, manageable adjustments, she set me up to succeed in a way that never felt overwhelming or restrictive.

Friends & family were initially surprised when I said I wanted to commit to a plan — many of them didn’t think I “needed” to lose weight. But this wasn’t about weight loss for me. It was about feeling like myself again. At 11 stone 2 lbs, my goal wasn’t a number on a scale; it was simply to feel good in my clothes & confident for a holiday abroad this October. Looking back to how I felt in May now seems like a distant memory. I am incredibly proud of what I’ve achieved. I feel more like me again — stronger, happier & with a renewed sense of confidence & positivity.

What Tracy offers goes far beyond personal training. For me, she embodies the true connection between health, fitness & wellbeing. She understands that everyone is on their own journey, with different aspirations & different challenges. She supports you in a way that feels personal, achievable & up lifting. I am so grateful for everything she has helped me to rebuild — not just physically, but mentally too. I have reduced my overall weight to 9 stone 10 lbs but more importantly for me I have lost so many inches from my waist & thighs, feeling so much better in my clothes & not having to buy any new ones!

I now feel confident that I can continue to build on the foundation Tracy has given me. And as life inevitably changes, I know I always have the option to return for more 1:1 time whenever I need to reset, refocus, or simply realign with myself again.

 Working with Tracy has been transformative. I can’t thank her enough for making the entire experience such a positive & empowering one.

I remember that Wednesday night... Mel was stood in the middle of the group in Strength Training Class. We were about 20 minutes in, I could sense that she was struggling; trying so hard to hold it all together & then a panic, an emotional reaction that became so overwhelming she ran out.

I asked a group member to step in, I left the room & followed Mel out, she had just been given the news that day about her husbands cancer diagnosis.

I stood with her & time stood still whilst the words came out through her tears, shock & fear.

It was 6 months after that we started working together in 1:1.

Mel's desire to learn, understand & apply gave her the edge to succeed.

I admire her immensley.

An incredible role model for the people around her. It takes a lot of courage to step back & admit to yourself that a) your struugling & need help & b) to seek it out, accept it & implement, do the work.

Congratulations Mel on navigating through life's ups & downs with grace.

What you have achieved in such a short space of time is incredible.

I love our connection & relationship, your appetite for knowledge is exciting & your energy joyous.

Thank you for allowing me to be a small part of your life's journey.
