    E6 | Sarah Allan's Journey: Why You Need to Leave Your Comfort Zone & Turn Your Obsessions into a Career

    In this episode of CONVERSATIONAL PACE®, we sit down with coach and creative Sarah Allan. Moving into a transitional phase of her career, Sarah reflects on breaking out of the expectations and boxes people place on her, stepping away from her role as a full-time head coach, and evolving into the creative space. Sarah shares her journey from getting her first camera at ten years old to taking up photography again during lockdown, which eventually led to working with brands, capturing events, and directing visual storytelling. She opens up about overcoming imposter syndrome in a new industry, leveraging ten years of coaching experience to connect with people, and learning to embrace being unboxed and unconventional. We also touch on her background as a competitive athlete, including her pursuit of the Commonwealth Games in weightlifting, and how failure and obsession have built her resilience, and how her perspective on fitness, strength training, and life balance continues to shift. More than anything, this is an inspiring conversation about taking massive leaps, trusting the process, and turning your obsessions into a fulfilling career. Whether you are considering a career change, balancing multiple passions, or trying to find your own path, this episode offers a refreshing look at embracing uncertainty.

    E5 | Rhys & Athena's Journey, Career Leaps, Fitness & Getting Married in Cyprus

    In this episode of CONVERSATIONAL PACE®, we sit down with coach Rhys and his fiancée Athena. With their upcoming wedding in Cyprus just a month away, they reflect on their strong personal connection to the island, family traditions, and the process of preparing for their big day. Rhys and Athena share their story from when they first met nine years ago through social media and retail work to building a shared life focused on growth and health. They talk about how their fitness journeys evolve, from early group classes and home workouts during lockdown to establishing sustainable daily habits and supporting each other's career transitions. Athena details her path from beauty school and makeup counters to running a successful, full-time nail and training business, while Rhys discusses stepping away from a seven-year career in the motor trade to pursue barbering, personal training, and coaching. We also discuss their current training focus as they prepare for an upcoming 10K race, detailing their transition to structured online running programs, the mental toughness required during long training blocks, and their goals for race day. More than anything, this is an honest conversation about partnership, career transitions, building healthy routines, and pursuing long-term goals together.

    E4 | Chirsty's Endometriosis Journey & Diagnosis

    In this episode of CONVERSATIONAL PACE®, we sit down with one of our own nutrition coaches, Chirsty, alongside her sister Eilidh. For years, Chirsty experienced severe, painful symptoms that didn't fit the textbook definitions of endometriosis, frequently landing her in the GP's office.  What followed is a story that speaks for itself, a history of being told her condition was normal for teenagers, a stressful health scare involving a mistaken scan result, and a journey toward a life-changing diagnosis. Chirsty shares her journey from navigating constant fatigue, severe digestive issues, and chronic pain, to undergoing diagnostic surgery. We talk about training and recovering after major surgery, the emotional impact of a long-awaited diagnosis, managing chronic illness through diet, and why she advocates so strongly for women to track their symptoms and push for answers. More than anything, this is an honest conversation about health, family support, and raising awareness for a systemic illness that affects so many. Whether you're someone dealing with unexplained symptoms, looking to support a loved one through a chronic illness, or looking for a reminder of the power of advocating for your own health, this one's for you.

    E3 | Jack's Story: Motocross Roots, Chasing RX, and the Power of the 1%'s

    In this episode of CONVERSATIONAL PACE®, we sit down with one of our coaches Jack. From competing in motocross at just four years old to playing football through his teens, Jack has always been wired for sport. But it was watching his mates lift heavy, run hard, and throw barbells overhead that pulled him into the world of functional fitness, and he hasn't looked back since. Jack shares his journey from cobbling together random programmes off the internet to hiring a coach and seeing the difference proper guidance makes, taking his clean from 85kg to 140kg and his snatch from 50kg to 105kg over four years of consistent work. We talk about what it takes to compete at RX level, the reality of online qualifiers and video standards, learning from the competitions that expose your weaknesses, and the "1%'s" he's refining now, from transitions to game-day habits. More than anything, this is a conversation about patience, mindset, and building the mental callus that comes from doing hard things, and why the advice he'd give his younger self is simply to enjoy the process. Whether you're a competitive athlete, someone thinking about hiring a coach, or you're simply looking for a reminder that progress takes time, this one's for you.

    E2 | Colin's Story: A Heart Scare, the Deadly Dozen, and Training at Any Age

    In this episode of CONVERSATIONAL PACE®, we sit down with one of our own members, Colin Chalmers. Almost exactly a year ago, Colin experienced a heart scare that landed him in hospital. What followed is a story that speaks for itself, a consultant telling him that his training had put him in a far stronger position than most, and a recovery that saw him back in the gym and going from strength to strength. Colin shares his journey from trying the gym door three times before finally stepping inside, to competing at Turf Games with the PACE® community, and most recently taking on the Deadly Dozen in Edinburgh alongside his daughter Hannah.  We talk about training as you get older, the mindset instilled in him from a farming upbringing, doing your best over winning, and why he feels 28 despite what his birth certificate says. More than anything, this is an honest conversation about health, family, community, and the second lease of life that comes from simply showing up and putting in the effort. Whether you're already part of the PACE® community, someone who's been putting off walking through the door of a gym, or you're simply looking for a reminder that it's never too late to start, this one's for you.
