The Girl Behind the Breath

For a long time, I was one of those women who looked like she had everything together on the outside, but on the inside, I felt completely different.

I became a mum at a young age, and like so many women, I spent years just getting on with life. Being everything to everyone, juggling responsibilities, pushing through and rarely stopping to ask myself how I was actually feeling.

For years, I was so used to pushing through life that I never really stopped to think about what it was doing to me.

It wasn’t until my health forced me to stop, and I found myself facing surgery that would permanently change my body, that I began to look at life differently.

For the first time, I started to recognise just how much I’d been carrying. The emotions I’d pushed down, the feelings I’d ignored and the years I’d spent simply getting on with things.

I’d become so good at carrying on that somewhere along the way, I’d lost touch with myself.

And that was the beginning of a journey I never expected to take.

A journey of understanding myself, reconnecting with my body and discovering that there was another way to live.

And somewhere along that journey, I found breathwork.

I genuinely had no idea that something as simple as breathing could have such a profound impact on how I felt.

For the first time in a long time, I started to slow down, get out of my head and reconnect with myself.

And the more I experienced breathwork, the more I fell in love with it.

Not just the breathing itself, but the way it made me feel afterwards. The calm, the clarity, the connection. That feeling of coming back to yourself.

And I remember thinking…

Why aren’t more women doing this?

That’s where Breathe Like a Girl began.

I wanted to create something that felt different.

Not another serious wellness space. Not somewhere you have to have everything figured out.

But a community of women coming together to breathe, connect, let go and experience something really special.

Because I truly believe every woman deserves to experience the power of her own breath.

And if I can help more women discover what breathwork has given me, then that’s exactly what I want to do.

Come for the breathwork. Stay for the feeling. ♡
