Personal training as a career is rewarding, but has hidden challenges that go unspoken.

Melanie de Laine has been a personal trainer (in person and online) since 2020 and is now transitioning into a creative role with Ivy Nutraceuticals.

In this episode Melanie and I talk about the highs and lows in the career of Personal Training including setting good boundaries, the fear around creating content (and the potential to be called out by someone in this day and age of social media) combined with the incredible fulfilment being a trainer can bring.

She’s climbed five of the seven continent's highest summits, including Mount Everest.
She’s also a paramedic, Army reservist, and fitness competitor.

In this episode, Ali shares what it really takes to push your limits when your body wants to quit and your mind starts to break. From surviving the brutal conditions of Everest to staying composed under pressure as a first responder, Ali’s story is about more than mountains; it’s about mastering yourself.

We dive deep into:

• The mindset and preparation behind climbing the world’s toughest peaks
• The scariest and most transformative moments from her summits
• How she builds mental toughness across the military, fitness, and mountain life
• What fear, failure, and purpose look like at 8,000 meters above sea level
• And the life lessons that apply to anyone chasing their own version of a summit

If you’ve ever wondered how far the human mind and body can go or you’re looking for inspiration to take on your next challenge, this episode will light a fire in you.

I've been a personal trainer for 9 years and have coached thousands of people in some way.

Sometimes its easy to get caught up feeling our goals are so hard to hit when really , we're making it unnecessarily hard for ourselves.

In this episode I use the example of not going over your calories and macros and how it can be simpler than you think.
