https://bit.ly/44CoB4g But they didn’t. My wellness routines never stuck.
Hi, I'm Zahra, an ICF-Certified Life & Health Coach, a Nationally Recognised Nutritionist and an NLP Practitioner. For years, I felt trapped in cycles I didn’t know how to escape—toxic relationships, self-doubt, and a lingering sense of never feeling “enough.” My first breakup in my early 20s shattered me. I was drowning in depression and isolation, convinced that if I just tried harder, loved deeper, and ignored the red flags, things would work out. That relationship was codependent, draining, and laced with unhealed trauma—and walking away was just the beginning. I thought escaping meant healing, but I quickly realised that freedom without clarity only leads to more confusion. I built new friendships, forced myself into hobbies, and tried to rebuild from scratch—but I kept falling back into the same destructive patterns. My health suffered. Burnout and stress manifested in gut issues, exhaustion, and anxiety. I was running on empty, chasing external fixes while avoiding the real work within. The turning point came when I finally stopped being at the effect of life and decided to reclaim control. I started setting boundaries, even when they meant facing solitude. I spent time strengthening my self-worth, learning how to break free from limiting beliefs and emotional triggers. For the first time, I opened myself up to love again, but this time, on my terms. With the confidence and clarity I had cultivated, I stepped into a relationship rooted in respect, emotional security, and genuine connection—one that has now flourished for nearly a decade and remains the most fulfilling partnership of my life! I became a student of transformation, investing in nutrition, mindset coaching, and personal development. I deepened my knowledge through life coaching certification, NLP training, and holistic health studies—because healing isn’t just about fixing symptoms. It’s about rebuilding from the inside out. Now, I coach ambitious women through their own transformations—helping them rewrite the beliefs that have kept them stuck, reclaim their full potential, and design a life rooted in self-worth, fulfillment, and wellness. Because I’ve lived through these struggles myself, I know firsthand what it takes to break free and rise stronger.

🤔 This meal might look healthy and filling, BUT it's incomplete. If you chose to have only this for breakfast you'd be starving yourself.
Why? It only has 9g of protein, and ideally you want 30g+ per meal. Also the total calories are just not enough for one meal. 257 calories are only about HALF of what a full meal needs. A 500kcal meal will nourish and fulfill you.
😋 You better believe this is only the first half of my breakfast! Personally I will be adding some whiting Fillets and seaweed for some protein, omega 3s and iodine and that will complete it for me.
How would you complete this meal?
I enjoy working out most when I DON'T have a plan.
I spontaneously do movements that feel natural. I strength train, I do cardio.
But I rarely follow a program.
This has taught me
🙏 That I am more in touch with my body's needs and providing them each moment that it comes.
I'm not bound by a system
And this way
I feel
FREE.
How do you enjoy your workouts? 🤔💪

🎂I didn't get a cake for my birthday. No, this is NOT a pity post.
🤲Now, I know in western culture, this might sound a little strange. No party, no cake.
🥲And I don't mean to throw shade at anyone through this. But the truth is, sometimes you have to go against the grain to express your true self.
🧘I'm not satisfied with the societal pressure that tells me how to celebrate a special day. I get to choose it myself.
So, I chose to receive:
🤗 I received all the positive and negative emotions that came my way.
🤗I received the gifts sent by my family
🤗I received a new friendship with someone who also shares my birthday
Most of all, I'm grateful that those around me are there for me, and accept and love me the way I am. THAT is the biggest gift for me that I receive everyday.
👉If you saw life as a gift, what are you choosing to receive today?🤔Share with us!
🙏You don't learn about your values by following all the rules. You learn what matters to you, when you start listening to yourself, rather than everyone around you.
🧘 This is why I decided to go against the grain, and keep my leg hair, while shaving my head at the same time.
🤗This wasn't just an act of rebellion. It was about finding my authentic expression, regardless of the external expectations. It's about finding inner peace within.
What's something you wish you could do, but are afraid of the reactions of others? Share below!🤔

🤔Being a beauty therapist who chose to grow out her leg hair, wasn't easy at first.
🧐I was met with stares and double takes.
But I pushed through my authentic expression. 🤲
💖This is a reminder that you do not need to conform to society's standards about who you are and how you feel.
Choose yourself everyday 🫶

🥲This was extremely vulnerable for me to write. I was challenged with discomfort and the fear of being exposed, but I pushed through anyway.
🙏Today I am brave enough to share my story of why I chose to keep my leg hair as a woman.
🤣It's honestly surprising for me that this statement even needs to be made. I mean, I am choosing to NOT do something, and stay natural. How is that even a political statement?
🤓Anyway, feel free to interpret at your leisure. I am merely sharing my story and the lessons it's taught me.
🫶I hope to inspire you to find your authentic truth and live it everyday

Everyone thinks about Oranges when thinking about vitamin C, but what if I told you that it’s not even in the top 5 highest vitamin C fruits?
Australia is blessed with Guavas, growing as a native in some parts, which is the highest source of vitamin C in fruits!
So, next time you want to load up on vitamin C, look at strawberries, or kiwifruit, or even paw paws, before you start smashing oranges 🍊
