About me

Hi there, it's great to see you checking out My Happy Balance.

 

I'm Vicky, Strength & Fitness trainer and Nutrition Coach, specialising in women's health, wellness and performance. My home is in Manchester, UK where I work face to face with clients and with the beauty of being online, I can work with you anywhere in the world!​

My Happy Balance came from my passion for nutrition, wanting to understanding more on how the body works and a lightbulb moment of how important nutrition and strength training are for women's health, especially as we encounter some of the more challenging phases our bodies could face such as pre and postnatal and the move into perimenopause and post menopause.

 

The more I delved into women’s health, the more I realised the importance of us knowing more about our body and hormones. We are different to men and we are different from one and other. Our body, environment, activity and nutrition all contribute to our health, happiness and weight management. It’s therefore important that we find out more about ourselves to help take back control, feel energized, healthy and happy……and that’s what My Happy Balance aims to do.

I've also had my own struggles with just not feeling right In my late 30s, my energy and mood were low. I drank a lot and didn't focus on my own health which in turn meant that I struggled with managing my weight…. I was really unhappy and it was time to take control, so I ditched my usual mantra of diet starts Monday and started doing things to help me feel good. I realized that when I felt good, nutrition and activity seemed to fit in to my life a lot more easily! I then realised that in order to feel good and manage my weight, wasn’t a moment in time where life stops, instead by creating a bunch of different habits and creating realistic steps, I could enjoy a balanced lifestyle that can now be maintained throughout my life.

 

I now know more about my body and feel good which has been such a support as I move into Perimenopause. My body is changing, as is my mind! Even just knowing why these changes are occurring, and that I am not alone is a huge strength to have and continuing to look after myself, keep active and eat well makes the symptoms easier to deal with,

In other news I enjoy open water swimming and taking part in triathlons (non competitive), I love to try new things, reading, walking and hanging out with friends & family.

Looking forward to meeting you soon

Vicky
