Vasavi’s Journey: Finding strength, balance and purpose through health

EP144: Vasavi’s Journey: Finding strength, balance and purpose through health

In this episode, I’m joined by Vasavi, a determined and inspiring guest who has transformed her approach to health, fitness, and mindset. Her journey is a powerful mix of self-discovery, breaking limiting beliefs, and embracing both physical and mental well-being.

Vasavi lives in Surrey UK but has a strong cultural connection to Sri Lanka where she and her family are from. I hear how her Tamil heritage has played a significant role in life and shares the highs and lows of her relationship with food, body image, and cultural expectations around weight.

We discuss her early struggles with self-confidence, her experience with 75 Hard, and how she ultimately found a sustainable, empowering way to transform her body and mind.

She also dives into the impact of fasting, how it connects to her fitness goals, and her dream of becoming a spin instructor who blends high-energy workouts with the music and culture of South India.

Key Highlights:

• Cultural influences on body image – How Vasavi navigated family and societal expectations about weight.

• Discovering fasting and hormone-focused nutrition – Learning to work with her body instead of against it.

• The power of movement – How pole fitness, running, and structured workouts helped her regain confidence.

• The mental shifts that made the biggest difference – Overcoming self-doubt and embracing long-term change.

• Her future in fitness – Training to become a spin instructor and how she plans to incorporate Sri Lankan and South Indian music into the industry.
