Most of us reach a point where we realise we’ve been so busy taking care of everything and everyone else that somewhere along the way we lost ourselves. Our health suffered, our identity shifted – and the old version of us that once felt strong, vital and purposeful became someone we could barely remember.

In this episode of The Health Review I sit down with Rajni Singh — qualified nutritionist, women’s health and fitness coach, Miss Great Britain finalist and founder of a coaching practice that has helped thousands of women rebuild their health, their strength and their sense of self. Rajni’s own story is one of the most moving I’ve encountered. Having moved from Punjab to the UK at 21, married into a joint family and spent years putting everyone else first, she found herself navigating PCOS, depression and chronic pain simultaneously — all while keeping up the appearance of holding everything together. She didn’t start her fitness journey until her 40s. And then she completely transformed her body, her mindset and her life — competing in Miss Great Britain as the only South Asian contestant and building a coaching business that now reaches thousands of women around the world.

We cover:

• Rajni’s extraordinary personal story — from moving to the UK at 21 to depression, PCOS and chronic pain in her 30s to Miss Great Britain finalist in her 40s
• What depression actually felt like from the inside
• The moment she made the decision that changed everything — and what that turning point actually looked like
• Why women lose themselves so gradually that most don’t notice until something breaks
• The identity shift that makes everything else possible — from operating as someone who is unwell to someone who is becoming well
• PCOS — what it really means for metabolism, mental health and long-term wellbeing beyond the standard advice
• Why movement was the thing that saved her when nothing else could
• Strength training for women — why it matters more than most women realise and how to start from zero without feeling intimidated
• Nutrition for women with PCOS — the most common mistakes and what actually works
• Why midlife is not a decline but potentially the strongest and most vital chapter of a woman’s life
• The practical switches that make the biggest difference for women who are time-poor, exhausted and have tried things before that haven’t stuck
• What she wishes she had known at 30 — and what she would say to the woman listening who recognises herself in her story
