Healing is a lonely and challenging path trodden by many. However, the sweet companionship of a coach that has once walked down the line, overcame, and has led several other people to victory can make it easy. With great understanding and guidance, desired results are reproducible. Relationship with your coach is important and an enabling environment where mutual trust can be formed should be a top priority. Without any iota of doubt, only a supportive, accessible, compassionate coach can create an enabling environment where growth is feasible. On your walk to victory, you need your confidence back, but you need help. With you in the driver's seat, you need a coach who'll inspire you, guide you, believe in you, and also ensure you do not suffer withdrawal syndrome. If that's what you seek, you're at the right place.

Marjorie is a certified health coach and nutritionist, accredited member of the Nutrition Council Australia, and founder of The French Nutritionist — a coaching practice dedicated to helping women feel whole, well, and fully alive in their bodies. As an accredited member of the Nutrition Council Australia, Marjorie combines professional training in nutrition, health coaching, and sports nutrition with deep personal experience to guide her clients toward lasting change. Her journey into health coaching began during her own pregnancy, when a significant health experience forced her to radically reassess how she was nourishing herself — and ultimately led her to build a practice rooted in genuine care rather than quick fixes. Marjorie's approach is integrative and whole-person. She works with women who are exhausted by diet culture, overwhelmed by conflicting health advice, and disconnected from what their bodies actually need. Rather than prescribing meal plans, she coaches her clients through real, lasting behaviour change — addressing not just what they eat, but how they rest, how they move, how they think, and how they relate to themselves. Her work is grounded in the belief that sustainable health is not built on restriction or willpower, but on reconnection — to the body, to daily rhythms, to a sense of purpose and self-worth. Most women aren't lacking in care — they are simply giving all of it away. When they begin to include themselves, everything shifts. Based in Australia, Marjorie works with women in person and online, in both English and French, wherever they are in their wellness journey.

Tamara Makar: Forging Strength, Cultivating Mindset   Tamara Makar isn't just a professional bodybuilder; she's a testament to the power of unwavering dedication and the harmonious blend of physical and mental mastery. From the age of 14, martial arts became her training ground, a place where discipline and mental fortitude took root. For nine years, she honed her focus and resilience through rigorous training, laying a foundation that would serve her well in all her future endeavors. This deep-seated commitment to discipline, coupled with years of dedicated gym work that followed, ignited a competitive fire. In 2011, she stepped onto the bodybuilding stage, a pivotal moment that launched her into the world of competitive physique. The following year, 2012, saw her ascend to the pinnacle of amateur bodybuilding, capturing both British and World Champion titles, solidifying her place as a force to be reckoned with.   Yet, Tamara’s ambition knew no bounds. In 2018, she challenged herself to elevate her career, earning her professional card and embarking on a new chapter in the fiercely competitive US bodybuilding scene. This bold move was a testament to her relentless pursuit of excellence, pushing her limits at the highest level of the sport.   However, Tamara recognized that true strength extends beyond the physical. In 2020, she began a profound exploration of yoga, meditation, and breathwork, soon qualifying as a certified teacher. This transformative journey allowed her to integrate the power of mindfulness into her training regimen, recognizing the critical role of mindset in achieving peak performance. She began weaving together the iron-clad discipline of bodybuilding with the serene strength of mental and spiritual practices.   Today, back in the UK, Tamara leverages her unique blend of expertise to empower athletes, high-performers, and entrepreneurs all over the world. She guides them to unlock their full potential, fostering mental clarity, laser-sharp focus, and a resilient mindset that complements their physical training. Her holistic approach is a testament to the profound connection between body and mind, proving that true success is cultivated from the inside out. Tamara's journey is an inspiration, demonstrating that with dedication, balance, and unwavering focus, anything is possible.
