Dani is a Personal Trainer from Bristol who specializes in training for strength, health and mobility. In her coaching, she draws upon her experience, not just a trainer, but as a human. One who has also had her ups and downs, who didn't believe in her body, who saw it start to fail and become injured, who battled with and overcame bullying, bulimia and loss. By trying new things, allowing the right people by her side, and loving herself for what she can achieve, not what she looks like, she found her groove again.

In this episode, we discuss how she helps her clients to do the same.
