Jessica Ash, Libby Wescombe

Today’s episode is so interesting and so insightful with my guest, Libby Wescombe!

Libby was born into and raised in a cult in Thailand. Around puberty, she began to ask questions and see that the teachings in the cult weren’t quite aligned with what she felt was true in the real world.  At 21 she made the decision to leave and move to Australia.

With very little tools for success in the real world, Libby struggled to rebuild her life, find work, buy food, all while navigating being a single mom. She found solace in joining a gym that allowed her to take control over an area of her life and found her passion in fitness by eventually becoming a trainer. Libby is now a very popular face in the fitness world,

Tune in to this episode to hear Libby discuss how she is helping women everywhere uncover their true potential and step into exercise with confidence while improving their overall wellbeing!
