Meet the Team

Owner
Katie
My name’s Kate — I run the show (can I say that? 😅). I’m probably the biggest extrovert with the biggest heart you’ll ever meet. I live for my business, my pets, good food, even better wine, travelling the world…
I’ve been in the fitness industry for over six years, and I absolutely bloody love it. I’ve trained for over 15 years, so I’ve seen the good, the bad, and the downright ugly. From losing 4½ stone, to competing as a bodybuilder, to having therapy for disordered eating — I’ve tried all the diets, done all the things. But now, as a international powerlifter, I’ve finally found my thing: training for performance, not just how I look.
After four years of being a fully booked PT, I dipped my toe into online coaching — and let me tell you, the results online far surpass in-person PT. Why? Because we can add value to your life in ways you can’t even imagine.
What I’m like, in my own words 🤷🏼♀️
I’m extremely direct, open, and honest (maybe too honest sometimes). I make all my big decisions by asking myself: is it a f*ck yes? If not, it’s a no. I’m probably the most authentic person you’ll meet — what you see on Instagram is me 99% of the time, with a bit of sarcasm thrown in. I’m always up for having fun, making people laugh, and putting a smile on your face 😉
And truthfully? I care more about your progress than you do.
To me, a transformation isn’t just about how you look — it’s about mindset, lifestyle, and habits.
We make our clients strong, empowered, and confident.
I adore what I do.
I’m more than just a coach — I change lives, I make friends, and I build a community that lifts each other up every single day.

Coach
Luce
Hey! I’m Luce!
I have been a Coach with Strength Within since November ‘24 and I absolutely love it! I am a level 3 Personal Trainer and have 5 years experience working in the fitness industry.
I have a huge passion for helping people and that has led me to careers in mental health & learning disabilities, and most recently I worked in the prison service for 2 years.
I love a good adrenaline rush and weirdly love pushing myself out of my comfort zone because doing scary things is how we grow! And my mission as a Coach is to get others outside of theirs!
I have had my own struggles with mental health, confidence issues, past trauma and being overweight, I have overcome all of them! So I have been there and can relate and understand 💜
If you have me as a Coach you should expect the following:
- I will help you become stronger physically and mentally
- I will educate you to fuel your body for your sessions
- I genuinely care about you and your journey and I am committed to ensuring you reach your goals.
- I will push you outside your comfort zone
- I will take your mental health seriously and give you tools to improve it
- I will empathise and we will overcome any obstacle together
- I will get you feeling so confident, you won’t be able to walk past a mirror without flexing in it.

Coach
Heidi
Hey! I’m Heidi one of the Coaches here at Strength Within and also a Fully Qualified MHEC Coach (Mental Heath exercise Coach)—which basically means I help you get stronger in your body and your brain (yes, both matter, and no, we’re not skipping leg day).
I have a deep passion for helping people reach their goals—both physically and mentally.
I believe that true strength goes beyond the gym. It's about building better habits, finding motivation through life’s challenges, and creating a foundation for lasting well-being.
Why do I do this? Because watching people go from “I don’t think I can” to “Hell yes I can” never gets old. Plus, let’s be honest—I love cheering people on almost as much as I love coffee... almost.
I’m here to help guide you in building a stronger mindset, healthier routines, and a life you feel proud of.
Whether you’re just starting out or getting back on track, I’m committed to supporting you every step of the way—because you deserve to feel strong, capable, and motivated from the inside out.
If you’re ready to put in the work, laugh through the sweat, and finally start showing up for you—I’m in your corner. Let’s make it happen (and have a little fun while we’re at it).
