She encourages all women to start strength training, regardless of their background, and wants to disregard the approach to exercise as punishment for eating. She provides tips to a healthy lifestyle in a relatable way. Instead of focusing solely on what you do in the gym, she also gives advice on ways to improve other aspects of your life so your whole mental and physical wellbeing is enhanced.
