ABOUT YOUR COACH
HI, I'M KIM!
I HELP GOOD PEOPLE
LIVE RAD LIVES.
I shape empowered, mentally resilient and physically thriving people, so that they live a life they are inspired by every day.
I believe in working smarter, not harder. Through assessments and careful monitoring of progress, we use the minimum effective dose; not the maximum recoverable dose. More isn’t better. Better is better.
I’m a firm believer in movement optimism. Embracing the variety of ways the human body moves and adapts. The body is resilient & capable of adaptation. It’s about training people to be active, resilient, and fearlessly human. Freedom through movement.
We focus on load management and preparation. We focus on the things within our control. We are active in shaping the person we become, rather than being a victim of circumstance. A diagnosis does not define you.
I'm here to get you to your goals in an expedited manner. An individualized approach based on your lived experience and assessments. No guessing. No templates. No modifications or "working around" injuries or limitations. Just the best program, coached with full attention, to deliver your goals.
IT’S FREE. NOTHING TO LOSE AND EVERYTHING TO GAIN. BOOKING A DISCOVERY CALL MIGHT JUST CHANGE YOUR LIFE IN EXACTLY THE WAY YOU WANT.
WHAT YOU GET
Everything is custom designed so that you work on what YOU need. The program changes to meet you where you're at - so that we can keep you progressing at the pace your body needs. No cookie cutter templates here. It’s your program, based on your assessments and goals, delivered on an easy-to-use app called TrueCoach.
Accountability. I'm online, checking that the work is getting done, and we pivot as needed. Daily messaging with your coach, and regular checkins. Live support through regular check-in calls, and in-person reassessments (done via video or inperson if you’re local)
Flexible scheduling. Collaboratively, we build your schedule. I take your preferences, equipment, travel, work schedule, and energy levels into account. We collaborate on what you can be consistent with. I keep your goals in mind, and let you know if we need to do more or less in order to get there.
Your workouts and tasks are published in advance, so you can plan ahead (if you’re into that). You get an optimal dose of custom education and mentorship delivered remotely.
Education & mentorship so that you understand the why behind what we're doing, what matters, and how to apply this stuff to your real-life.
Peace of Mind. There’s no confusion or overwhelm. There are demonstration videos for every movement. You can upload videos of your own movements for analysis. You can message your coach any time for clarification or questions. You’re never alone. You’ll have a program designed for YOUR body
Progress tracking. A world-class coach in your corner tracking your progress and ensuring things are going in the right direction.
A consolidated plan coordinated with your physio, surgeon or doctor so that you’re doing what you need to get better, supervised and guided by your multidisciplinary team. It’s simplified, streamlined, and progressed appropriately so you can just focus on showing up and doing what’s needed.
Enjoyment! Being active and moving your body should feel good, and at times fun, even.
This is “the work phase.” Once you achieve freedom of movement and no longer need 1 on 1 sessions, you can do your program remotely.
You no longer need my eyes on you, but there’re still work to do to get to your goals. You can do your program remotely which is flexible and based on your schedule.
The work prescribed is an optimal dose of custom programming, education and mentorship delivered remotely via TrueCoach.
By the time you start remote, your pain or flare-ups have either resolved completely or are well-managed. You’ll have built the foundation through personal training, and now you’re ready to do the work to have a strong, capable resilient body that performs well for the rest of your life.
It might look like strength training, cardio, running, biking, hiking, mobility exercises, balance drills, plyometrics, pelvic floor exercises, breathwork, or changing lifestyle habits like sleep or nutrition. It depends on what you need.
WHO IS IT FOR?
Folks who want to be prepared for big adventures
Runners who know that a custom program will improve their performance and resilience
The person who is ready to put in the work to achieve performance goals
Active people with chronic pain who are ready to stop being sidelined because of it
The person who’s done physio, but still not where they want to be
The person who refused to allow their world to shrink as they age
Outdoor athletes who trust that the work their coach prescribes will get them out of pain and across the finish line
The person who wants peace of mind knowing they have a program designed for their body and their sport-specific needs
Adventurous folks who want the freedom to say YES to whatever they want, with the people they care about
You, if you’re ready to make yourself a priority
HOW MUCH INTERACTION DO I GET WITH MY COACH?
Your coach is available Monday through Friday (with some exceptions when I’m on holiday) to answer questions, revise programming, and help you along. Your real life human-intelligence coach is checking your progress, answering questions, reviewing form videos you upload, revising the programming as needed, and asking you questions. You have someone to report back to, tracking your progress.
Weekly, you get a written message, voice message or video (depends on your preference) to highlight areas of focus for next week’s programming, the “why” behind what you’re doing, and where it fits into the bigger picture.
We have regular 30 minute check-ins to discuss progress, review relevant education, and reassess as needed. This is done on the phone, via video call, or in person if you’re local. How often depends on what YOU need & want. We usually start with weekly, then to a cadence of every 2 weeks for a while, and then bump to monthly after that. Again, it depends on what you need to be successful; there’s no limit or prescribed cadence.
After each cycle of training, you’re provided a Cycle Review that outlines areas of progress, items I’m tracking, and what’s coming up in the next cycle. We then book a meeting to discuss and collaborate on the next cycle. . We work through challenges, flare-ups, and set-backs. We celebrate wins. Through highs and lows, we move forward and build momentum.
WHY IS REMOTE COACHING SO EFFECTIVE?
Because it’s exactly what you need, nothing less and nothing more.
We workshop any challenges or sticking points so that you keep moving the needle forward no matter what. We pull back when needed, push forward when appropriate, and keep our sights on our North Star: your goals.

YOU CAN EXPECT MORE THAN PROGRESS. YOU CAN EXPECT A SHIFT IN HOW YOU LIVE, MOVE, AND SEE YOURSELF.
FOR MANY CLIENTS, WHAT BEGINS AS A GOAL TO FIX PAIN OR “GET BACK IN SHAPE” BECOMES SOMETHING MUCH BIGGER: A COMPLETE TRANSFORMATION IN CONFIDENCE, CAPABILITY, AND QUALITY OF LIFE.
PHYSICAL CHANGES
Clients often start with long-standing pain, injuries, or frustration—and go on to achieve things they once thought were out of reach.
- Freedom from chronic pain (even after 10+ years).
- Stronger, more resilient joints and muscles.
- A return to the activities you love—running, hiking, skiing, biking, or even multi-day endurance challenges.
- Better overall fitness without needing to spend hours in the gym.
- Feeling stronger, healthier, and more capable than you did even before injury.
Many clients don’t just recover, they surpass their previous baseline and discover a new level of physical potential.
EMOTIONAL CHANGES
As your body improves, so does your sense of self.
Clients consistently describe:
- A deep sense of confidence and independence.
- Feeling genuinely supported, seen, and cared for.
- Renewed motivation and excitement about their lives.
- A sense of pride in what they’re capable of achieving.
There’s often a moment where things shift from feeling limited… to feeling empowered.
MENTAL CHANGES
This is where some of the most lasting change happens.
Through coaching, you’ll begin to:
- Change your mindset around pain, setbacks, and limitations.
- Build trust in your body again.
- Develop autonomy and confidence in the gym or at home.
- Learn how to train effectively, without guesswork or overwhelm.
- Become more connected, intentional, and self-aware.
Clients often say they didn’t just become fitter. They became better, more resilient versions of themselves.
TIMELINE: HOW QUICKLY RESULTS HAPPEN
The changes start sooner than most people expect and continue to build in powerful ways over time.
- In the first few weeks: You’ll feel supported, guided, and more confident in what you’re doing. Many clients notice early wins in strength, movement, and clarity.
- Within a few months: Pain begins to fade, strength improves, and daily life feels easier and more enjoyable.
- Over 6–18 months and beyond: The transformation becomes undeniable. Clients report feeling stronger than ever, pain-free, more capable, and in some cases, better than they’ve felt in decades.
THIS ISN’T JUST ABOUT WORKOUTS OR PROGRAMS.
IT’S ABOUT HAVING SOMEONE IN YOUR CORNER WHO TRULY LISTENS, ADAPTS TO YOUR LIFE, AND HELPS YOU UNLOCK A VERSION OF YOURSELF THAT FEELS STRONGER, MORE CONFIDENT, AND FULLY CAPABLE. FOR MANY CLIENTS, MAKING THAT FIRST CALL ENDS UP BEING THE TURNING POINT—NOT JUST FOR THEIR FITNESS, BUT FOR THEIR ENTIRE LIFE.

“Working with Kim has been an absolute game changer! As a fellow exercise professional and small business owner, I’m not an easy client—I have high expectations and a lot on my plate. Kim not only helped me prepare and successfully summit Mt. Kilimanjaro, but she also guided me through the challenges of prioritizing myself while running a business - all while ensuring I remained pain free. Her professionalism, kindness, and expertise are unparalleled. She met me exactly where I was, providing the perfect balance of challenge and support. I can’t recommend her enough!”
- Beth Hansen, coach & founder of Lark Greensborough 2024.
“Free the knees! I had knee pain for over 10 years, off and on. I would feel hopeless when it showed up, throw on a brace and slow my life down. Kim changed my mindset and worked with me to strengthen the knee. A 400km pilgrimage and over a year later not one day of knee pain. Not to mention Kim being a kind and motivated person cheering me on. 100% recommend!”
- Jared
"My confidence, mental state, ambition, physical abilities, sleep, diet and overall quality of life, have improved massively and I can honestly say I wouldn’t be in the place I am now had I not made that call. I would absolutely recommend Kim and would give 100 stars if I could! I guarantee Kim’s knowledge, compassion and coaching will absolutely change your life for the better and help you get the most out of all the activities you love!”
