So, we thought we’d try something a little different this week. After all, aren't some of the richest sources of inspiration for positive change often found when listening to smart, switched on people share their personal stories? We're confident that will be the case with this week's guest: personal trainer, global fitness superstar and founder of the Fit Body App, Anna Victoria. At the age of 32, she has already been on her fair share of health journeys and here she chats to Women’s Health’s Editor-in-Chief Claire Sanderson about the lessons she’s learned along the way. Expect an unfiltered account of Anna’s struggles with unexplained infertility and IVF plus how, now she’s pregnant (and due any day now) she plans to raise a strong, resilient and self-confident little girl. They also discuss Anna’s personal evolution from someone who thought nothing of eating Maccies thrice daily (yep, really) to a woman who lives and breathes a healthy lifestyle so much so that she’s been able to amass a 1.2 million-strong community of women around her passion and knowledge for living well. Oh, and there are tonnes of tips and tactics you can apply to optimise your health - no matter what stage you're at on your own journey.
