Beautiful white buildings. If you could have dinner with anyone dead or alive who would it be, and why? I have also read pretty much all her books. In fact, after hearing about how she lost her husband and then reading her book, Plan B, I sobbed for hours! Find out more about Lisa and her epic rebounder classes right here….

Some of my key focus areas are to help people with digestion issues and gut health, stress management, improved strength and fitness, obesity management and just simply demonstrating how easy it can be to live a balanced, healthy life that's sustainable.
I don't believe in quick fixes or short cuts, but I do believe in hard work and dedication and it's my life's mission to help people realise their full potential and thrive!
I'm trying to empower busy working women, moms especially, to cook quicker, but healthily; what to do with their kids; how to exercise more effectively; how to get better quality sleep if you can't get eight hours but you can get six - how you get six good hours. Most moms just don't have that hour. I know moms are under pressure, but if you can do a good 20 minutes on a rebound, it's like going for a run for an hour.
Everything I do is around trying to get a woman to feel amazing and energetic, full of vitality, stronger, more powerful, and sexier. Because along the way, we do lose ourselves, and I can say that for myself. What happened to all the other beautiful things that you used to do and contribute to society?
And the work you used to do, and what you stood for? Your skills and your knowledge? What happened to all those? How can they just be parked? If you have more to give and want to give it - you must! You have to contribute to make the world better.
For me, you can't just be 'mom'. It's just not enough. So I lost my way for a bit, trying to find my new identity and my new balance, and how I was going to juggle both work and being a good mom. According to a lot of people, you have to choose, and I was determined not to. And so I really empathise with moms who are trying to do it all. I want to give them the tools to empower them so that they can do it all. And there are a lot of hacks that let you do it easier, quicker, more effectively There are a few I use.
It means that it's never too late to start. That is a big thing for a lot of women: they look for perfection, for the end game, and that sometimes takes years to perfect. The point is to start somewhere, to be a little bit better in some way every day. I love that slogan because it takes the whole perfection side of things away.
Doing something is better than doing nothing. And that something becomes a lot when you do it consistently. You're seeing the small progress and, all of a sudden, the small little incremental improvements become quite big over time.
Make small little changes all the way through, as opposed to a quick fix - crazy eating plans and training programmes that are not sustainable when you're trying to work and raise a family. So, you may feel balanced when you don't work evenings and weekends, or when you know you have 20 mins a day for you to exercise, meditate, read, whatever it takes for your soul. For somebody else, their life may feel balanced when they spend a lot of time with family and friends.
There's no perfect recipe and no perfect eight slices of a pie. Find your own balance that is perfect for you. After consulting for years, I realise that different things make different people happy.
It's about what makes you feel whole and happy. And giving women permission to change the way they slice the pie. I gave myself permission 20 years ago to put myself first. I consult with ladies in their 50s, 60s, 40s, 30s, and they've never put themselves first. I was very young when I started in this industry. My clients have taught me so much. Years and years of consulting with people twice my age made me see what not looking after yourself looks like if I fast forward 20 years.
I realised you are totally in control of the decisions you make now, because if you don't… that is how you're going to end up. And I was reminded of that eight times a day with different clients. It's a massive wake-up call. They reminded me daily that self-care and self-love is the only way to guarantee a healthy, balanced life. And to make sure that you age slower, and that you live to a good old age, disease-free. I think I always had it in me to be self-controlled and self-disciplined, but the constant reminders really integrated this into my being.
I was a ballerina and a gymnast when I grew up. I had to be excellent, to practice hard, be disciplined and resourceful. I didn't even live in the same city as my parents. So I had to just get on with it. I knew the power of discipline and having the right amount of sleep, getting the right food , because I could only perform and be my best when I did that. I go to bed on time, I wake up early, I drink vegetable juice every day, and I have a vegetarian diet, sometimes vegan.
I don't smoke, I don't drink, but I do have one or two naughty things I do, but it's balance again. I love sweet stuff. I do have sugar in my diet every day, but I exercise a lot, so I do burn it off. And I do love the sun. I love summer, to lie in a bikini and sunhat around the pool, with an SPF, and get a golden tan. I know it's not good for my skin but it makes me happy and I'm like, you know what…?
