Sometimes the most inspiring journeys aren’t about standing on a podium or breaking records. They’re about showing up, day after day, for yourself, your family and your dreams.

For Nic, life is a constant balancing act.

She’s a mum to two daughters, owns and runs a busy pub and is currently training to be a Level 5 Personal Trainer (currently level 2 and working on level 3)  Somewhere between work, family life and everyday responsibilities, she’s also preparing to take on one of the world’s most iconic races—the London Marathon in 2027.

It’s a full life, but one she’s determined to live on her own terms.

Running didn’t just become a way to keep fit; it became a way to challenge herself, create space in her busy life and prove that it’s never too late to invest in your own goals.

Like many women, Nic knows what it’s like to put everyone else first. Family will always come first, but she’s learnt that looking after yourself isn’t selfish—it’s essential. Every training run, every early morning and every small step forward is an investment not just in her own wellbeing, but in the example she’s setting for her daughters.

That’s exactly why she felt such a strong connection to Anything But Ordinary.

This collection isn’t about doing the impossible. It’s about choosing your own path, even when it doesn’t look like everyone else’s.

It’s for women who refuse to be defined by one role.

Women who can be mums, business owners, runners, professionals, partners and dreamers—all at the same time.

Nic embodies that perfectly.

She’s building a career in health and fitness because she wants to help other women discover what they’re capable of. At the same time, she’s taking on personal challenges that remind her growth doesn’t stop once you’ve reached a certain age or stage in life.

Her story isn’t about having more hours in the day than anyone else.

It’s about making the most of the ones she has.

Whether she’s training for her next run, supporting customers at the pub or encouraging someone else to believe in themselves, Nic leads by example.

She reminds us that being Anything But Ordinary isn’t about being fearless.

It’s about being brave enough to keep moving forward.

One step at a time.

One decision at a time.

One finish line at a time.

Because every woman deserves the chance to write her own story.

And Nic is doing exactly that.
