What happens between sessions.

Hi Reader

I Something I've been sitting with for a while: the work doesn't actually happen on the day you train. It happens in the eleven days after, when nobody's watching and the plan meets your actual life.

Most women don't need more information. They need something that holds them accountable between the sessions, without turning training into one more thing to manage on their own.

That's the part that's usually missing. Not motivation. Not knowledge. A container between the big moments — something that keeps the thread going when a week gets away from you.

So I built one.

It's a monthly training video, done in your own time, plus a WhatsApp group where I check in most days and answer whatever comes up. No live calls to schedule around. No pressure to perform on cue. Just consistent contact, and something to come back to.

I started it quietly a few weeks ago with a small group of current and past clients. Five joined in the first month, which told me the gap was real.

If you've ever wanted more structure between sessions, or wanted in without committing to full 1:1 work, this is that.

£25/month. Reply and I'll send the details.

Train smarter. Recover deeper. Perform better

You already train. You are disciplined, capable, and used to pushing through. But something feels slightly off. Energy dips you cannot explain. A nervous system that never fully switches off. A sense that you are not operating at full capacity, even though you look like you are.

This is for athletic, high-performing women, especially those balancing multiple identities, who want refinement rather than motivation. If you are neurodivergent or highly sensitive, even undiagnosed, you will find language here for things you have felt for years without the words.What you will get:One piece most weeks. Grounded, specific, and built from real coaching work, not generic advice. Training strategy, nervous system regulation, and cycle-aware performance, drawn from 14 years working with women who do not want to slow down. They want to work with their body instead of overriding it.

ARE YOU SICK too? ACTIVE SHAKTI WEBSITE Hi Reader Have you ever dragged yourself to the end of a massively stressful week, finally allowed yourself to stop, and immediately woken up sick? You spend your weeks in a state of sympathetic dominance. This is your body’s survival mode. Because your brain perceives your daily schedule as a threat, it pumps your system full of cortisol and adrenaline. This acts as an invisible grip. It artificially boosts your immune system and suppresses...

What actually happened while I was quiet. Hi Reader I have not sent a newsletter in a few weeks. If you noticed, you might have wondered what was going on. Nothing dramatic. No burnout, no big life event. I simply stopped producing for a while. Most of us treat quiet like it needs an explanation. Time away from output gets filed under lazy, behind, or recovering from something. Rarely does it get filed under working. Here is what actually happened. I wrote. Properly wrote, on the book, in the...
