I was you.
I was always anxious. The gym was the last place I ever wanted to be. Too loud, too intimidating, too full of people who looked like they had it all figured out.
I was a new mum, completely lost in the postpartum fog. Trying to figure out who I was again, trying to hold it together for my kids, running on empty every single day.
Then something traumatic happened to me at home. I won't go into detail but it took everything from me. I couldn't show up for my kids. I couldn't show up for anyone. I was just trying to get through each day.
Someone dragged me to a kettlebell class. I didn't want to go. I nearly didn't walk through the door.
It changed my life.
Not just my body. My head. My confidence. The way I walked into a room. The way I talked to my kids. The way I felt about myself for the first time in a really long time.
And that's when I saw it. There was a massive gap. Kettlebells are dominated by men. The coaching out there wasn't built for women like me. Women who are busy, overwhelmed, time poor and not about to spend their evenings prepping four different meals for the whole family.
So I built what I needed. For women who need it too. That's Girls Who Bell Society.
