    Carly Corrigall is a personal trainer and coach for women in midlife. A former solicitor, she made the leap into fitness after her own experience with the gender health gap postpartum and has built her business around women who want to feel strong, capable and fit in their 40s and beyond. She is also one of Pippa's DIY PR members and has built an authority ecosystem that genuinely works for her business. Journalists now approach her.
