Coach Marina Hardiman

Coach Marina Hardiman I coach people on how to create sustainable habits and better their relationship with food/movement.

I do this by teaching how to link your life with habits and behaviours you would like to create with food/movement with accountability & support.

Ann used to find herself going on a diet every time something was coming up.

A wedding.
A night out.
Christmas.

The focus was always on losing a bit of weight for the even, but never actually changing anything long term.

Through coaching she started setting real goals and building habits that now happen without thinking, things like drinking her water, getting her steps in, and even sea swimming regularly.

Nine months later she’s toned up, lost weight, and feels like a completely different person around food, challenges and goals.

If you recognise yourself in Ann’s story, DM me “CHANGE” to achieve your goals too!

You spend all week waiting for Friday, only to reach it with no energy left to enjoy it.

Friday night is spent collapsed on the sofa. Saturday disappears while you recover. By Sunday, school is already creeping back into your head.

Then you blame yourself for not using your weekend better, when the real problem is that your working week takes so much from you that two days are barely enough to feel human again.

If you’re tired of spending your weekends recovering just to survive another Monday, join my 1:1 coaching waitlist through the link in my bio.

I spent years believing the next plan would finally be the one I could stick to.

Instead, I kept setting rules that required perfect weeks, breaking them when life became busy and using every broken rule as evidence that I was the problem.

The 30kg was not only the result of what I was eating. It was the result of constantly swinging between control and exhaustion while losing trust in myself every time I started again.

Sustainable weight loss began when I stopped measuring success by how perfectly I followed a plan and started rebuilding proof that I could rely on myself.

Follow me if you are tired of restarting and want an approach that works in real life.

“I thought I was going to fail again.”

That fear doesn’t come from lack of effort.
It comes from trying so many times before and not trusting yourself to stick to it.

This time was different.
Not rushed. Not extreme.
Built at a pace she could actually sustain.

Six months later she’s still showing up, she’s lost inches, and more importantly she trusts herself again.

That’s the kind of progress that lasts.

If you’re sitting there thinking “I’ve tried before”, my coaching waitlist is now open.

DM “COACHING” and we’ll talk it through.

“THERE ARE ONLY FOUR MONTHS LEFT OF THE YEAR.”

Unless you’re a teacher.

Then your year is only starting.

And while Instagram is telling you to hurry up, lose the weight before Christmas and make the next four months count, you’re probably making another list of promises about what you’ll do differently this school year.

Meal prep. Gym. More water. Lose the weight. Finally put yourself first.

But how many Septembers have you made the same promises?

This week’s episode is about doing September differently. I’m breaking down the habit nobody talks about, constantly putting yourself last and giving you practical ways to build routines that still work when the September energy disappears and school gets mental.

Your goal isn’t to smash the next four months.

It’s to get to next summer and finally be able to say, “This year actually was different.”

🎙️Your Year Is Just Starting is live now.

My September/October coaching waitlist is also OPEN. If you’re ready to make this school year different, join via the link in my bio.

I knew the version of me leaving school at 4pm would be mentally drained, hungry and sick of making decisions, so I stopped expecting her to rescue the day.

These are six things I did instead:
1. I ate a proper breakfast. I refused to begin a demanding day running on coffee and good intentions.

2. I brought a lunch I would actually eat. Not something tiny that left me searching through the cupboards the second I got home.

3. I packed an afternoon snack. I stopped treating the after-school hunger as a lack of control when I had barely eaten all day.

4. I filled my water bottle and kept it visible. Otherwise, I could reach 4pm and realise I had barely taken a drink.

5. I decided what dinner was before leaving home. I wasn’t asking an exhausted brain to invent a nutritious meal on the drive home.

6. I planned for the tired version of me, not the imaginary version who would suddenly have endless energy after school. My meals were simple, my workouts were realistic and I had a smaller option ready for difficult days.

That was the difference. I stopped building plans around who I hoped I would be at 4pm and started supporting the woman I knew would walk through the door.

Follow me for more realistic ways to look after yourself around the demands of teaching.
