Portrait of the SlimStride founder in Glasgow
Personal Background

The Human Behind the Stride.

Moving between professional high-pressure environments and the essential need for physical recovery in Glasgow, I discovered that weight management isn't a battle of will—it is a negotiation with rhythm.

I am not just a coach; I am someone who had to rebuild my own daily pace from the pavement up.

From Burnout to
Balanced Energy.

Five years ago, my life in Glasgow was a blur of early commutes and late-night office glow. My physical well-being was an afterthought, buried under the weight of a professional schedule that left no room for movement.

I realized the traditional fitness industry was selling the wrong thing: intensity. What I needed—what most professionals need—was consistency grounded in the reality of a busy life.

The Realization

Energy as Currency

I stopped looking at weight as a number to be reduced and started seeing it as a load that influenced my daily energy baseline. By adjusting how I integrated movement into my workday, the shift happened naturally.

Movement in the city

The Evolution of the Stride.

My professional journey is defined by the development of sustainable habit-stacking methodologies tailored for regional life in the United Kingdom.

Phase One

Research into Habit Formation

Dedicated study into behavioral psychology and how small, non-disruptive changes to daily routines create long-term stability in physical well-being. This was the foundation of moving away from "on-and-off" cycles of motivation.

Phase Two

Establishing the Glasgow Practice

Opening my lifestyle coaching studio in the heart of G1. This period focused on testing methodologies in the unpredictable weather and work culture of the UK, ensuring that my advice worked in the real world—not just a sterile environment.

Current

The Stride Cycle Method

The formalization of a coaching framework that prioritizes movement consistency over intensity. By aligning caloric management with your existing life rhythm, we remove the stress of forced behavioral changes.

Grounded philosophy

Why It Works.

Most approaches fail because they ask you to change your life to fit a plan. SlimStride works because we change the plan to fit your life. Whether it’s a 15-minute rhythm walk between meetings or a recalibration of your evening meals, every step is designed to be sustainable.
