“But then everyone always tells you to marry your best friend. So maybe have I got relationships all wrong, right? I don't know, I don't know, but all I'm saying is the person that I'm with and next with or whatever. Don't necessarily have like they're not competing because that's horrible. You don't want to compete.”

“You don't speak, you don't see unless you're stalking each other, which I would because I'm a widow. So I'd stalk you for a bit until I got over you. But what I'm saying is I see him every day. So it's like, how can I ever forget about you? You're always there. I speak to you every day. I'm on the phone to you every day. We make executive decisions together every day. I still go to you for advice, every day. But why is I don't look at you and want to kiss you? No, I don't I don't I don't, not right now anyway, but I don't. To be in a relationship, you have to have that flair. Come on, you have to have that spark, that you make me feel some type of way. And I know over time it will pass and whatever, but it sounds so weird, but I see him almost like a best friend.”

“Don't know, we don't speak about stuff like that. I don't know if he's in a relationship. Okay, so here's another thing. Jax made it pretty clear he's been like, I don't know who I'm going to find that's like you.”

“When I first met Jack, I have never felt that way about someone before. And I never once questioned our relationship or I never once questioned whether I didn't want to be with this person. And it's funny because when we hire new people at Tone and Sculpt, they obviously know Minor Jack's relationship. And a lot of employees tend to get a bit nervous. They're like, are the co-founders going to be bitter? Are they going to be nasty to one another? And you know what they always say? It's insane how much respect and love they have for one another. It's actually a bit worrying. How much respect and love we have for one another? And had we not had tone and sculpt, we would have 100% been married by now, probably expecting a first child.”

“Being honest, like you live and you breathe your company. Jack is an entrepreneur in himself. Jack is a co-founder. Jack built this with me. Right? So, if I'm going through all those things as an entrepreneur, as a co-founder, he is as well.”

“I think if anyone turns around and says to you that I work with my partner and we run a company of 30 people and hundreds and thousands of subscribers and an ever-growing company and we're so in love. I literally will look at them and be like, how did you make that happen? Working and being romantically involved with someone is difficult because let me tell you something when you come home from work, you're coming home from work with the same person. What do you think you're going to speak about when you get home? Do you think you're going to speak about after you have sex?”

“I think it's possible. I think anything's possible. I just think that it's going to take someone with a hell of a lot of confidence and someone that understands that I don't need anything else but effort. Time from them I don't need your money. I don't need your gifts. I don't need.”

“You're going home, and you're like, What do you mean you didn't do this? What do you mean you didn't do that, hating each other, resenting each other because you think they're to blame? He thinks you're to blame. I think he's to blame. Right? It's going to take a very, very special person to fit into the shoes that Jack left. You know, he is such an incredible man. In every aspect works hard, is caring, is loving, is ambitious, is everything a woman would want in a man. Unfortunately, we grew apart. And it is unfortunate because I genuinely loved him and still do love him unconditionally. I'd give him my kidney if he needed it. And it would take someone very, very special and confident to fill that space up. And I'm not going to hold my breath. Does that make sense? I'm not going to hold my breath. Let's just see where it goes.”

“I've never said this ever, and I'm a little bit nervous to say this, but when I was with Jack, I thought that that was my person. And I genuinely felt it in my heart, in my soul. I never questioned it once, right? And we grew apart. And that's because a lot of people don't know what was going on behind the scenes. Last year, when I launched Toner Scott with Jack, we had a lawsuit against us, you know. No one really knew about that, you know, 50 grand in lawsuits, trying to get our app that we built just to be ours and then build it from the ground up. That's why we had to refurbish and relaunch the programs because everything is now built homegrown in our offices.”

“It's unstable Is a lot of dependency. And I think that the most important relationship you're ever going to have is going to be with yourself. Because when you go to bed at night and you're in your own little thoughts up here, right, that's you and you. That's you and you. So you got to fix that up here first before you go trying to find a person to share your life with, you know?”

“No, it's not. I've been there. I've done that. And obviously I'm speaking from personal experience. You could find someone that really helps you. You know, you could genuinely find someone who inspires you, motivates you, pushes you. And that's so remarkable. And if you do find that person, don't let them go, you know. But unfortunately, if you have so much self-hatred, you are never going to be satisfied in the relationship that you are in because you constantly have to find that person to give you that happiness. You can't see waiting for that person to do something for you.”

“No. And if I was with someone at the time, I wasn't so confident, it would have been the wrong person. You attract the energy that you have. You attract what you believe in yourself. If you're constantly negative about yourself, if you're constantly just trying to make yourself believe you're just not worthy, you're always going to attract that. And don't get me wrong, there was like dates in between Jack. Obviously, when I wasn't with him, by the way. I mean On me, I had for a phase, I went through dating, and it's always the wrong guy, it was the wrong guy. And then it was, I realized it's because I'm trying to find happiness in other people. Constantly trying to find happiness with other people. And then when I started focusing on myself, He came along”

“But you could, right? Yeah. Because when you start doing something good for yourself, training was good for me, right? You start to build these disciplines and habits and consistencies. And they transfer in other aspects of your life. It's like a domino effect. So I started becoming more disciplined at university. I didn't need 10 cans of red ball to stay awake. I was focused. I would excel all the time. And it wasn't because I put in extra hours. It was because I was so hyper focused where I was with who I was, I was present. And if it wasn't for the gym, I wouldn't be able to have done that.”

“I just believed in me so much that no one, not even, you know, the person I was with could sway me another way. And I do think a lot of that comes from persevering in the gym. And growing that discipline”

“He was driving me to work and I go, Jack, I don't know why, but I feel like we're going to achieve something by helping women. He goes, Yeah, whatever, man. Get to work, I'll come pick you up. I was like, no, I feel it. And I started crying, crying, streams of tears. He was like, what's wrong with you? I was like, no, I believe it. I don't know what it is. This feeling I can't explain. Never had that feeling before. And here we are today”

“But he is a very important person in this story because when I met him, I was at rock bottom, but I was also trying to find my feet and I was becoming more confident in myself. And that confidence did grow and attract the person that I was supposed to be with at the time, right? Because I do believe your vibe and energy attract the people that you have around you, right? And I remember he was driving me to work one day because I was waitressing. And I looked at him and I said, I don't know why I slide Instagram at this point, had like 50,000 followers. I slide Instagram, in all honesty, I started it just to see how I look doing exercises and Hollywood record me. And I was, oh my God, I'm going to break my back. I don't know what I'm doing. I need to fix my form. But somehow people started loving it. And anyway.”

I was going, he's now my ex fiance, by the way, everyone. We're no longer together.”

“From life, from my reality, from the fact that I was so depressed And the only time I felt like I could escape was at the gym, which is so crazy because the gym is like a chore for people. It's like, oh, I've got a fucking train today. But I went there and I escaped. It was therapy and no one could take that feeling away from me. Not an ex boy from that cheat on me, not a mean girl at school, not a horrible boss, no one.”

“Yeah, I did. I did. I did, and I was like, okay, no, I need to do this. Like, what am I doing? I'm so lethargic. I'm tired all the time. I'm not strong. I was never overweight or underweight. I was just tired all the time and drained, especially mentally. So when I got into the gym, I remember looking at the leg press machine and I was like, what is this transformer? I don't know what the fuck to do with this machine. And everybody else around me seemed to kind of know what to do. And then there was like men there and the women were on the cardio machines and the men were at the weights. I didn't care about the cardio machine. I was so intrigued by the weights. Why do men go there? What is it about men that go there and women go there? I want to go there. I don't know how to use weights. I don't know what I was doing. I was training. I didn't have anything. Like no one was on Instagram.”

“So I think, you know, like I remember walking into sixth form one time and a lot of personal things happened in my life and no one wanted to be around me at that point. And I just hated everyone around me and I was full of anger, constant anger and hate. You know, and I didn't want to be that person anymore, especially after being cheered on. I didn't want to be that person anymore. And I remember Being on the train one day because I used to work in Potter's Bar at the time in this little men's boutique, like retail shop. And I was coming back home. And I remember the penny dropped and I was like, I can try so hard to be sexy and cool and all this stuff other people, but I'm not doing anything for myself. And that's where the quote, do this for you comes from. Because I signed up.”

“No. He does not deserve the airtime. I'll tell you that much. But I was heartbroken and I was trying so hard to please this person. You know, I was trying so hard even in school. I know it sounds petty, but I was trying so hard to fit in all the time, all the time. I remember like this is so, this is not cute on my end, I'm going to be honest with you. I remember being at school and I'm foreign, okay? I'm Mediterranean. We're hairy, okay? And I had a no, I had a moustache. And the girls used to rip me for it. And I was so sad. I was like, oh my God, why am I not like these pretty English girls? Like, I don't understand. Like, I used to feel so shitty about myself, constantly trying to, like, fit in. And then when I got cheated on, I was like, oh my God, it must be because I'm not pretty enough. It must be because I'm not sexy enough.”

“You can only be the best version of yourself, right? And I think if you stop trying to be something else soon enough, it will come out. Or you'll start to fall through the cracks, or it will slip, something will slip. And you can only uphold that image and that presence for so long before it really just fucks up. So the only thing you can do is be the best version of yourself. And this is what I tell people all the time. It's never been about other people's perceptions of you. It's always been what you think about yourself. And if you truly, truly believe in yourself, you won't want to be anybody else. You won't want to be fake. You wouldn't want to be trying to please everyone. My job isn't to please everyone”

“Orders. Such bad things you couldn't even imagine what women have gone through and have told me to bring them all together and to create this tribe.

“I think, in all honesty, if I'm answering that question from a personal perspective, I've always been 100% honest and transparent with who I am. You're not going to find a hidden secret or some nasty surprise. This is who I am. You literally either take it or you leave it. And I'm not going to try and be anything else to fit in for anybody else, you know? And for me, When I started my fitness journey, when I moved countries to England, I never felt like I had a sense of home. I never felt like anybody understood me. So to be blessed with a platform where I can build a community and bring women together globally, you know, this goes beyond me. This is about bringing women together that have been abused, that have had mental disorders, eaten disorders.”

“I think I'm going to be complete honest. I think it's one thing to be judged and it's another thing to be judged as a woman. Okay, so why is it that when you see a handsome man, you don't come to conclusion that he only got what he got because he's handsome? Why is it as a woman I have to justify myself more? I have to explain myself more all the time. It's draining. I shouldn't have to explain myself. My face, my body, all of this stuff, it's just external, you know? And I think that Can I swear on this? Oh good. I like how can I swear? I swear on my YouTube all the time. Some people get offended and I'm like, listen, this is who I am.”

“100% it is. And you know, it's funny you say that because I've also been on multiple dates with people. And, you know, they see my Instagram following and they automatically assume that, oh, it's because you get your ass out. That's why you make money or it's because you get your ass out. That's why you've built what you've built. And the truth is if I did that and if that was the fundamental reason, then I wouldn't have a team of 30 people in one company and building another company that sells out every time we restock. It goes past being a pretty face or a pretty picture. It goes past being a nice body. It's about the message that you have. It's about what you want to truly, truly put out in the world. And I think if people make that conclusion, it says more about them than it does to me.”

And I think that It's never fully been about me and the credit that I get is seeing other women thrive and succeed and come together. And that for me is enough credit. I don't need an award. I don't need someone to say, oh my God, you're the best businesswoman in the world. For me, when I see or when I read another woman's story, That for me is enough. I don't need anything else. So, yeah, I do.”
