with The Kellee Collective, but I'm proud of<br />

how far we've come and excited to see how far<br />

we can go in the future.<br />

Why are you so passionate about it: I've seen<br />

and experienced first hand what insecurities<br />

can do to women and it's heartbreaking. I see<br />

a lot of mental illness and eating disorders<br />

come about from the external pressures<br />

of having to look a 'certain' way which is<br />

portrayed massively by social media and the<br />

fitness industry.<br />

I studied for years to gain a BSc Chemistry<br />

and originally set out to be a chemist, but it<br />

wasn't as fulfilling as I thought it would be.<br />

That's when I fell in love with helping people<br />

through health and fitness. I think what<br />

people neglect to realise is that your health<br />

isn't just physical, it's mental as well, and until<br />

you realise that, you'll never be as healthy or<br />

as happy as you can be. I have set out to create<br />

an outlet, through The Kellee Collective<br />

WIN<br />

Enter to win your own slice of The Kellee<br />

Collective, with an awesome prize pack<br />

consisting of a pair of Kellee Collective<br />

Never Let Me Go Shapewear Tights, a<br />

Never Hold Me Back Singlet and a KC<br />

gym towel. The full range can be viewed<br />

at thekelleecollective.com<br />

(personal training and activewear), where<br />

women can overcome their limitations and<br />

negativities, in a community where women<br />

want to see other women succeed.<br />

Your top tips for women buying exercise<br />

gear: Dress for your body shape. As women,<br />

we are all different shapes/sizes/heights so<br />

finding activewear that is flattering for your<br />

body shape will not only leave you feeling<br />

confident, but comfortable as well. Don't<br />

compare yourself to fitness models with<br />

different body shapes or allow yourself to<br />

think that you need to look a certain way to<br />

wear activewear. It's all about finding what you<br />

feel comfortable and confident in.<br />

How do you relax: I'm an active relaxer, I<br />

enjoying being social, and spending time with<br />

friends and family. However, I do love a good<br />

sunday morning sleep in.<br />

Your fave activities: I love getting outside,<br />

to the beach, hiking in the bush, travelling,<br />

anything that's active and adventurous, I'm<br />

there.<br />

Something you’d love to try: Skydiving, I'd<br />

probably have a panic attack in the plane lol<br />

but overcoming fears is a bucket list must do.<br />

What were you doing before The Kellee<br />

Collective: I was studying, first a science<br />

degree, then my PT certificates. Since then<br />

I've been working as a PT at Flex <strong>Fitness</strong> for<br />

the last three years.<br />
