About Me
Hey, myname's Kim.
Founder and head coach of The Strength Movement, started in 2021, in the midst of finding myself on the other side of second guessing my eating and exercise behaviours, and navigating plateaus in the gym.
Through studies in exercise science and disordered eating, it became my mission to help females navigate the confusion, build more autonomy in their choices, and bridge the gaps between wellness and performance.
My story
Why I'm here.
Year 5
Where it began
I started dieting when I was 10. I wanted to be smaller, to be more valued. It became a cycle of intense dieting and exercise followed by binge eating, unhelpful rules and confusion, second guessing every eating and exercise choice I made.
June 2017
The turning point
I was skiing at Mt Buller in year 12 when one of the gym staff started talking to me about strength, and what it took her to feel good in her body again. That one conversation changed my future. I didn't look back.
The years since
From smaller to stronger
I worked with coaches to let go of restrictive measures and build stronger intuition. I found powerlifting, no longer choosing to be smaller through exercise, but faster and more powerful. Taking up space.
2021
The Strength Movement is born
My journey inspired my studies in sports science and disordered eating practice, and the launch of my own coaching business. Today, TSM helps women build autonomy in their choices and discover what building their body's capacity looks like without sacrificing their health.
“Strength is the vehicle. The destination is trust.”
