“Before I began working with Crystal, I struggled to find the initiative to act decisively in a way which would support me to achieve my goals.
I was caught in negative patterning and limiting self-beliefs that had depleted my disciplined nature. My once optimistic attitude had diminished and was replaced with doubt and subconscious fear. My thoughts were filled with trepidation and negative worst-case scenario outcomes. I was lacking the ability to communicate effectively to find solutions for issues and as a result had developed several “Stuck Stories”.
During my time with Crystal, my mentality began to shift from “What If” to “Can Do”. I slowly started to integrate and build healthy habits which supported me in making visible and dramatic changes in my approach to life. Through weekly accountability and consistent challenging and stimuli, I was able to interrogate my patterning and break away from toxic cyclical behaviours which I had embedded in myself. Although the process was not always easy and I found myself struggling with consistency at times, Crystal supported me and let me know that struggling is natural and okay.
Again, throughout our process of working together Crystal emphasised that it was just that, a process, and always looked for ways to make what I desired work. Having that external push and guidance helped champion me towards manifesting my future, taking more risks, and standing in my greatness. One of my biggest ‘aha’ moments has been catching myself in my thinking and recognising how conscious I am now as opposed to before. I used to participate in mindless behaviour, and I now have so much more awareness around what I do, when I do it, and why I do it.
Now that I have increased consciousness and awareness around my patterning, actions, and behaviours I am more empowered to go for things that are truly aligned with what I want. I have clarity around my vision and purpose in unbecoming who I was to stand in the fullness of who I am. I am excited about being an advocate foremost for myself and being the positive representation, I always imagined.
I am excited about walking freely and fully in my truth and embracing the entirety of my being. I am excited about saving and investing in activities that light me up and energise me. I make time to do things that invigorate me; I go to the gym, listen to music, write, read, go for walks, drink water, dance, laugh, eat well, rest (because rest is important!), make time for friends that add value and meaning to my life, and I operate authentically which feels so damn good. I live a life that is balanced, aligned, and has a forward trajectory of continuous accomplishment.
I look forward to completing my MFA in Dance Leadership and Community Practice at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance and my continued work at Shockout Arts where I work as a Lecturer of Ballet. I will continue to support and show up for my gorgeous network of artists and friends around the world who celebrate and champion me, as I celebrate and champion them.
Thank you, Crystal, for allowing me to see all that is going right in my world and encouraging me to take steps towards cultivating a brighter, lighter, and healthier me!”

“I am so happy and satisfied and in tune with my body and I've never been in a better place. Together we have found the perfect methods and way of life that keep me gaining, growing, healthy and content. My body used to get extremely sore and tired, but we’ve created a wonderful recovery routine and meal plan and I've never felt stronger. She’s also taught me a lot about food and nutrition, dislodged multiple myths I held before, and changed a lot of harmful mindsets that were causing negativity in my life.”
— Sanya Khan, Dancer
“Crystal has been nothing short of wonderful!
She's helped me build my confidence from the ground with professionalism, kindness, genuine care and expertise always adapting and listening to my needs in the moment as we work together.
Not only has she helped me with my confidence and self worth as an artist but also as my own person outside our industry. I now know how to prepare my body for the best outcome through food and exercise and I've learned how to reprogram my brain to approach everything with a positive and grounded energy regardless of the outcome and I can tell you things have changed!
I have never auditioned so much and received such good feedback in the entirety of my career in the UK. So if you're looking for a coach that will help you put your best foot forward look no further because SHE IS IT.”
— Maria León, Actor & Singer
“Before I worked with Crystal, I was struggling with when and what to eat with such a hectic schedule that was changing daily. This was making me eat badly, feel fatigued at times and not enjoying meals.
I learnt that small adjustments made huge differences and it didn't need to cost me the earth. I just needed to plan better and the biggest aha moment was finding great snacks that gave me a boost when needed and how much my water intake affected how I felt.
I'm excited to see that some small changes have been easy to implement. I feel healthier and more equipped with knowledge of what my body needs.
It was great to connect with someone who completely understood the physical aspects of my job and was flexible with my ever changing schedule. I felt extremely supported and looked after. I'm really grateful for all her help!”

“Before working with Crystal, I was struggling with motivation, consistency, and recovery for my workout plan that I’m currently on. As a performer who always loves being on top of his game when it comes to training and keeping fit, falling into a state of no motivation prompted me to skip workout days which then stepped into inconsistency which my mind and body have never encountered in my entire journey as a performer dealing with my health…Just losing focus. The biggest breakthrough that happened for me during my time with Crystal was being introduced to the “5 why’s”. I’ve never been exposed to a formula of sorts that helps figure out the core root for not only the main reason of “why” you’re on your path, but for each “why” that interconnects. Just outstanding…My big “aha” moment was knowing that I push so hard and try to motivate myself everyday because I want to make my family proud and represent my island the best I know I can especially in an industry that is looked at as a hobby. I’m excited about constantly reminding myself of my “5 why’s”. And really using that formula in all of my different faucets of my life. I’m so grateful to have worked with Crystal. It clearly was meant to happen to remind me “why” I’m here. Also, thankful for my new recovery shake!!”
— Lamoi Hedrington, West End Performer, The Lion King
“Crystal has helped me re-align my focus when it comes to how I see and treat my health. It’s been a back and forth battle between me and food and she’s given me the right tools to have a balanced relationship with food. This pushed me to see how I view myself when it comes to my career and my life. This road isn’t an easy one but it sure is beautiful and Crystal allowed me to see that again.”
