Summary
Introducing my right hand woman Nicola.
Most of you already know her but I am sure you will learn a lot about her background and what makes her a) such an amazing human and b) such a brilliant and caring coach.
I am also VERY excited to say that she will be coaching on commit to 6.
We talk a lot about chronic pain. Our experiences and how there is a light at the end of the tunnel!
I really hope you enjoy this one.

| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to this very special episode of the ESG Fitness podcast. |
| 0:07.0 | I'm about to introduce you to the guests I have on today, although she does not feel like a |
| 0:12.2 | guest because it also feels extremely weird introducing her given that everyone already |
| 0:18.1 | knows her, but what you probably don't know is a lot of the stuff we're going to talk about today and her background and the fact that she is now joining us as a coach. |
| 0:29.9 | So without further ado, it's Nicola. It's my right hand woman. How are you? |
| 0:36.7 | I'm very, very good. Thank you. Very honored to be on the podcast. |
| 0:41.4 | Oh, it's strange that you've not been on before. |
| 0:44.7 | I know. It's like, oh, we'll see how well I get on. |
| 0:48.9 | But anyone who listens to the podcast and is not a client, they might not know you. |
| 0:55.6 | No, they wouldn't actually. |
| 1:01.5 | They would be behind the scenes. She's behind the scenes. So really, I wanted to bring her on to talk about her journey, which, as I said, I don't think many of you know. And given my |
| 1:10.3 | chronic pain over the last year, I've become like quite interested in this |

| 1:28.2 | like been through that and and is now pain free hopefully. And one thing that massively helped |
| 1:34.2 | me was stories of people who have come through like, oh, I had I had the same or similar back |
| 1:41.2 | issues to you and you know, a couple of years later I'm careful but I'm pain free |
| 1:45.8 | like that is actually hugely motivating and knowing that someone has been through that and |
| 1:51.4 | Nicola's done exactly that so I want to start with talking about that a little bit yeah sure |
| 1:58.1 | so just to put it into context I'm'm 36 now, steaming fully ahead into 37. But when I was 18, I was on my way to university and I had a pretty simple car accident with plash and whatnot. But unfortunately, it triggered fibromyalgia syndrome in me. |
| 2:19.8 | If anybody doesn't know what fibromyalgia is, it's a chronic pain condition, |
