Success Stories

"I got in touch with Jen when I was at a really low point. My self-confidence had bottomed out, I felt uncomfortable in my body and my clothes. After my first phone call with Jen, I knew I had made the right decision to work with her.” - Emma

 
 

Jen took up the challenge to transform me from head to toe, to build my confidence, appearance and my attitude.

I met Jen on a weekly basis. With a budget in mind and under no pressure to purchase, Jen and I went clothes and shoes shopping. My confidence was building and I was becoming more positive.

When it was time to view my existing wardrobe I felt a degree of trepidation. Jen suggested that I complement an outfit with a scarf, a piece of jewellery, a neck lace, chain or charm. The experience was rewarding.

 
 

 
 

“I hated clothes shopping. I always thought clothes looked better on the hanger than me. I dressed for comfort not style. I needed someone to dress me.” – Mel, 57yrs

After five children, a passion for outdoor activities and working full time, my wardrobe basically consisted of active wear and work uniforms. Overall I lacked confidence and self-esteem to keep up with fashion.

I was incredibly nervous about Jen cleaning out my wardrobe, however the experience was positive and Jen showed me how to repurpose and utilise many of the clothes I already had.

Following my wardrobe declutter and with a budget, Jen and I went clothes and shoes shopping. Jen showed me brands and shops that suited my personality and lifestyle. I felt so much more confident after the shopping trip.

Jen also introduced me to a skincare expert and I was given advice on cleansing, toning and moisturising using my existing products. I usually avoided using make-up but Jen demonstrated how to apply a 5 minute make-up routine on a daily basis, helping to build my confidence regarding my appearance.

Jen even introduced me to a new hairdresser and my hair style and colour were transformed into a more feminine style. What an improvement!

Each time we went shopping I found it rewarding and I appreciated the time spent to improve my self-esteem and confidence. I gained a lot from this course. Jen was amazing. I encourage anyone to partake in this valuable course which concentrates on you and your needs and is aimed at making you feel good about yourself with confidence. Thank you,  Jen, for your welcoming advice.

“I am forever grateful to Jen who has transformed the way I think about exercise”.

Jen has worked with me to improve my fitness level and enabled me to enjoy

 
 

running! (Something I never thought I would do!) As someone who suffers from a chronic illness, I didn’t think I would be able to be fit again. Jen has helped me through the low times when I didn’t feel like exercising and encouraged me to get out there and ‘do it’. As a result, my mental health has improved too.

I relish my time training with Jen. We have spent many hours running on trails as well as in the gym. I now enjoy my time outdoors in all weather.

Jen has changed my perception of keeping fit and being healthy and allowed me to feel hopeful.   After achieving my initial goals, I now have aspirations about what I want to accomplish next. I feel empowered by my training with Jen and I couldn’t recommend a better personal trainer.

Wardrobe Makeover and Shopping Trip

Jen and I spent two industrious days getting my wardrobe in tip top shape.

It was such a great feeling to purge all the those just in case and the

 
 

‘it was expensive’ and ‘I’m feeling fat clothes’. Now I have a great wardrobe with all the basics covered.

The only problem I’m experiencing is having enough social occasions to show off my great new wardrobe. I highly recommend Jen, she is knowledgeable and her process is seamless.

Jen worked with me on many different areas of my life including my unique image, self confidence and general grooming.

Jen helped me to focus on the important things in life including making time for my own health and fitness and prioritising my family and friends.

“Jen gave me the occasional push, I was able to successfully run a half-marathon in less than 2 hours”.

I started training with Jen from Jen Whitehouse Fitness & Styling in September 2014. I was struggling with my weight, which impacted everything else in my life – confidence, happiness, self-esteem. When I first met Jen I weighed in at approximately 108kg, and hated looking in the mirror. Setting some realistic goals, I was able to drop my

 
 

weight to 96kg by the end of 2014 as well as complete a 25km hike. With further gentle guidance from Jen, as well as the occasional push, I was able to successfully run a half-marathon in less than 2 hours. All the while only weighing in at 85kg.

I’ve had personal trainers at various points in the past… If there’s any questioning as to why I recommend Jen over other trainers then I’d encourage you to re-read the first paragraph. The results speak for themselves.

I no longer train with Jen as I don’t live in the area, however she still encourages me and follows my progress to keep me accountable.
