Hi there!
I’m Millie (well, Emelie officially, but we’re on a nickname basis here), and I’m absolutely thrilled you’ve found your way to Millie Moves 🙌. This isn’t just another fitness blog—it’s a space where we talk about real journeys, share real struggles, and celebrate every small win along the way.
Whether you’re here because you’re dipping your toes into fitness for the first time, looking for a fresh perspective on wellness, or just curious about how to juggle it all while still carving out time for yourself, welcome. This is a judgment-free zone filled with heart, humor, and a little bit of grit—because that’s how we grow.
Why Millie Moves?
A few years ago, I started sharing tips, tricks, and motivation with friends and clients, and it hit me—why not create a space where women like us can feel supported and inspired? Life is busy (trust me, with a newborn at home and another on the way, I get it), and fitness or wellness often ends up at the bottom of the priority list. That’s where Millie Moves comes in: to help you move forward—whether that’s physically, mentally, or emotionally.
The Beginning of a Journey… Yours and Mine
Starting something new is always a mix of excitement and nerves, isn’t it? I remember when I first set foot in a gym. My palms were sweaty, my heart was racing, and I felt like everyone was staring at me. (Spoiler: they weren’t. Most people were too busy checking their own form or playlists!) But I pushed through those first shaky steps, and I’m here to help you do the same.
Whether it’s learning how to squat without toppling over, carving out time for mindfulness, or baking a banana bread that doesn’t resemble a brick (a new mum win during naptime! 😅), I’m right here with you.
What You Can Expect Here
Each month, I’ll be sharing a new blog post filled with insights, tips, and a sprinkle of personal stories. Topics will range from fitness and nutrition to mindfulness, family life, and even a bit of travel inspiration—because wellness is about so much more than what happens in the gym.
I want Millie Moves to feel like a chat with a friend. The kind of friend who’ll cheer you on when you’re smashing a goal, share a laugh when things go sideways, and remind you it’s okay to take a breather when life gets hectic.
Your First Move
If you’re just getting started on your fitness journey, here’s my advice: start small, but start. Don’t worry about being perfect—just focus on showing up. That might mean trying a home workout, going for a walk, or even just setting aside five minutes to stretch and breathe. Every little bit counts, and every small step is a step forward.
And don’t forget your “why.” Why are you doing this? To feel stronger? To boost your mood? To keep up with your kids? Whatever it is, hold onto it tightly. It’s your anchor on tough days and your motivator on good ones.
A Warm Welcome
This journey is yours, but you’re not doing it alone. Here at Millie Moves, we’re a community. We’re women cheering each other on, lifting each other up, and sharing the moments—big and small—that make this all worthwhile.
So, welcome to the start of something special. Let’s move together, grow together, and make this journey one to remember.
Big hugs,
Millie x
