Hi, I’m Claire!
I teach fitness professionals my non-Kegel, foot-first, full-body approach to pelvic floor dysfunction so you can get your clients consistent relief from their symptoms, and offer them effective, long-term solutions to their problems.
Unlike other PFD exercise methods where the focal point is often the pelvis, I focus on a “from the ground up”, everything is connected, step-by-step approach which addresses:
WHY WORK WITH ME?
I can help you get your PFD clients reliable results, and help you attract MORE of your ideal customers into your business first time round.

Did a spot of video editing recently for a FitPro postnatal exercise certification I want to put back up on my website, and I'm super excited for you to feast your eyes on it shortly! 💻
I've worked with 2,000+ pregnant and postnatal clients, in a 1:1, group exercise, and online class capacity, and I've always enjoyed working with this population 🤰
This newly laid out course is suitable for FitPros who want to learn how to safely sign off their postnatal clients back into mainstream exercise 💡
And, help build your confidence when working with this specialist population ✅
There's an element of pre-hab over re-hab in this course too, so if you're keen to learn how you can lessen your pregnant clients' chances of suffering with conditions such as diastasis recti, post-birth, this program is definitely for you 🤓

Are you excited?! 😆
When it comes to seeing 1:1 clients virtually and/or teaching classes online, it can be really draining on your energy, can't it? 😴
If you've ever felt the need to decompress or literally lie down in a darkened room after a Zoom call, please know that you're not alone. 🙏
Teaching anything online (regardless of the subject matter!) requires a different skillset to seeing clients in person. 👩💻
When it comes to teaching exercise online though - well, there's dead air time to fill in between reps...
The constant movement you have to do back and forth between demonstrating an exercise and checking your screen to make sure your participants' technique is ok...
And we can't NOT mention the constant lag or delay that happens every single time you're trying to have a conversation! 🤯
In this week's episode of the #PelvicpreneurPodcast, I'll be sharing:
✅ My experience of protecting my own physical and mental energy when showing up live
✅ What Zoom calls I've tweaked so my clients get the best out of me every single time
✅ A whole host of useful tips on how you too can do the same!
Pop your earbuds in now and enjoy! 🎧

I've been invited to speak at a local annual conference on CLIENT BOUNDARIES to a group of small, service-based businesses 🙋♀️
The talk is only 10 minutes 😅 and I mean, seriously, I could talk about boundaries, terms and conditions, sacking toxic clients, getting money out of people, what to do when someone asks for a refund, free versus paid advice etc.... for like HOURS! 🎤
Question is: should I say "yes" to this opportunity...? What do you think…?🤷♀️

Most FitPros use some form of content marketing to attract clients into their business. 📱
And, if you've been doing what you do for a number of years now, you've probably produced and published LOTS of content, right? 💻
But, have you ever wondered whether something you posted on Facebook or Instagram 5 years ago should still be there in public view? 🤔
Have you ever considered the implications of a prospective client finding a blog post that you wrote over a decade ago that's now full of misinformation because your industry has moved on, new research has been published, and/or you've updated your qualifications since then? 📆
In this anecdotal-style episode of the #PelvicpreneurPodcast, I'm giving you a timeline tour of ALL of the social media platforms and content marketing strategies I've used since 2005, as well as what content I've removed from public view, and more importantly WHY I've done it. 👍
After listening to this episode, you'll learn exactly what the best practices are for you to follow if you have old content still swimming around. 🏊♀️
So pop your headphones on, talk a walk, and tune in now! 🎧

FitPros: boundaries are important to put in place in your business ✅
Even setting simple things like expiry dates to your PT packages, and informing clients of what your email response times are can be a super way of getting back in the driving seat of your business 🚗
Check out my Boundaries For Business course if you need help in this department (link in bio) 🆘
I created this private podcast feed with you, the FitPro in mind, and please know that you can put terms and conditions in place in a way that works best for you and your clients, ok? 🙌

I received a message from a pelvic floor 1:1 client yesterday and she'd basically dropped off the radar. I know I'm going to sound like the most insensitive PT when I say this, but I don't tend to follow up clients if they go a bit MIA 🤷♀️
One of her questions in her email was "I wanted to check how long I have before my sessions expire with you?" ✅
She's paid for 5 sessions but only used 2 so far, so I'm here to say that EXPIRY DATES are really important to put in place here, fellow FitPros 👍🏻
Her next sentence is "I'll look at your calendar now and book some sessions with you", which is great because that means she'll just book in her remaining appointments automatically behind-the-scenes, without me having to respond to her straight away with the link etc 💻
And, actually I don't need to respond urgently anyway because my EMAIL RESPONSE time is 48 hours 😉
These are all basic terms and conditions and boundaries you need in place in your personal training or fitness business 👩💼
And, if you weren't aware, I have an entire private podcast feed about boundaries 🙌🏻

As a busy FitPro, do you ever feel like you have zero motivation to work on your business? 😴
Like you just can't summon the energy or maintain focus for long enough to actually make any progress? 🥱
Motivation is something that we've all struggled with (guilty over here too! 🙋♀️).
So what should you do when you've got SO many tasks on your to-do list, but you can't seem to actually get any of them done? 🤯
Often when we lack motivation it's because of a deeper reason. This week in the #PelvicpreneurPodcast, I'll be explaining:
✅ WHY we sometimes experience a dip in motivation
✅ What to do when motivation hits an all-time low
✅ 4 actionable questions to ask yourself to be aware of the signs in the future
So if you're ready to get fired up and ready to blast through your task list, pop in your earbuds and tune in now! 🎧

August is a weird month for FitPros, isn’t it? If you’ve lost your mojo a little of late, keep reading…
I think it’s normal sometimes when we struggle to motivate ourselves to do those all-important tasks that will drive our business forwards. ⚡️
Teaching and interacting with clients daily means you often have a constant smile on your face, and that's an energy drain in itself, isn't it? 😴
If you've ever felt like taking a nanna nap during the day because you just can't bring yourself to face your To-Do List for the afternoon, please know that that's ok, and oftentimes feeling this way happens for a deeper reason. 🥱
In this week's thought-provoking episode of the #PelvicpreneurPodcast, I'll be explaining:
✅ WHY we sometimes experience a dip in motivation
✅ What to do when motivation hits an all-time low
✅ 4 actionable questions to ask yourself to be aware of the signs in the future
This may be one of those episodes that you listen to once to get yourself fired up to take action, but it may also be worth adding this segment to your "downloads" in your podcast app, to return to at a later date when you really need that motivational voice in your ear! 💪
Pop your headphones on, grab a pen and paper, and tune in now! 🎧

I situated myself at my local coworking office space today and it was super fun 💻
I spent the day uploading content from a retired FitPro CPD/CEU certification that I want to put back up on my website… 🤓
…and a change of scenery is definitely needed for that sort of task for me 😂
I think I managed to upload 8 or 9 modules so far today, and going back through the content, I realised that this course is actually very simple in design which is one of my strengths (because gosh some people over complicate exercise sometimes, don’t they?)💡
If you work with postnatal clients and you feel a tad overwhelmed treating them post birth, and you’d welcome a step-by-step approach, then keep your eyes peeled for when this course will be available again for you 👀
Do you work with postnatal clients right now? Do you enjoy educating them as much as I do? Let me know by commenting below ⬇️

When it comes to advising clients with prolapse about the do's and don’ts of exercise, for the FitPro, it can sometimes feel a bit awkward, can't it? 😬
Maybe someone somewhere has said to one of your POP clients "Don't lift your toddler", or "Using hand weights is an absolute no-no", or "Squats are best avoided" etc… 🤷♀️
…and this advice sometimes makes you scratch your head, and even worse - it makes you question yourself as a pelvic floor specialist too, doesn't it? 😱
In episode 119 of the #PelvicpreneurPodcast, I'm sharing some past prolapse client case studies where these scenarios have happened to me, and the strategies I applied to overcome them. 💪
(Note: don't miss the BEST part of the episode right at the end, where I clarify EXACTLY which exercises, activities, movements and/or sports your prolapse clients should avoid doing!) 😁
Grab your earbuds, tune into episode 119 now and enjoy! 🎧

As a FitPro, have you ever found it awkward when a prolapse client has been told that they SHOULDN'T be doing something? 😬
Stopping squatting?
Using hand weights is a no-no?
Avoid picking up their own child?
It can put you in a difficult position, can't it? 🤯
If this has ever been an issue for you, you're in luck. 🤩
In this week's episode of the #PelvicpreneurPodcast (out NOW!), I'm sharing some of my past prolapse client case studies where this has happened, how I handled them, and the exercises that you really SHOULD be avoiding when it comes to POP patients 👍
