I am on a mission to support and inspire women in their 40s and beyond to feel wildly well.

I’ll support you to feel empowered and supported enough to prioritise your self care, to find joy in movement, and embrace ageing and the perimenopause.

 

My Mission

I aim to inspire you to feel strong and healthy enough to enjoy your wild side when it calls you.

I will help you to embrace and enhance your busy lives as you enter your 40s, 50s and beyond. I will help you understand what it takes for you to live a wildly well life through the ups and downs of perimenopausal hormone change.

I know you’re a strong woman with multiple competing priorities. I’ll help you work out how to prioritise yourself.

I look at health as a journey, as a long term life enhancing project. A chance to review what works for you to balance life, work, family and your multi-passionate life. You don’t feel like you’ve got time to squeeze in the self-care, but I can nudge you along the way. Cheerleading, mentoring, coaching and uplifting.


Lesley is incredibly passionate and knowledgeable about everything she does at Wild Country Woman. If you’re looking for a mentor and cheerleader for your health & wellbeing, look no further - she will be with you every step of the way.

How I work with you 

Health coaching: I work one to one online and offline. As your coach we work together to develop a personalised programme that suits you, your life and your goals. It’s an adventure in self care, often with a strong outdoors element. You’ll learn what works for YOU, for your health and well being. You’ll create a plan of action that fits your real priorities, not necessarily the ones you feel you ‘should’ have.

Group fitness: Join the friendliest, most supportive group outdoor (or online) fitness you’ve ever experience. You’ll start at your level, ease into exercise or push yourself when you need to. I’ll check your posture and make sure you don’t feel intimidated. Groups are super friendly and welcoming and you’ll usually get invited for a post workout coffee. Classes are outside in Long Ashton.

Retreats and workshops: I offer perimenopause and wellbeing workshops to individuals, groups and within companies and chariies. These are something very very special. Small groups of women coming together to share experiences, relax together and learn how to take their self care to the next level. Nurturing and nourishing experiences not to be missed.

Online courses: For busy women who KNOW they want to look after their health but find it hard to prioritise their own self care over the needs of their families, work and community I have a few online courses and programmes to support your wellbeing.

 
I hadn’t been to an exercise class for about 30 years and yet I have felt so comfortable being a part of it, an absolutely love it!

Who is this wild country woman? 

My name is Lesley Waldron and I live just outside of Bristol in an area called the ‘Wild Country’. I think we all need to connect to our inner wild woman occasionally, whether it’s through time spent outside in nature or letting our hair down with friends.

I'm a personal trainer and certified women’s health coach. I’ve worked with 100s of women since I began my career in the fitness and wellbeing industry in 2014. I LOVE learning and always aim to support my clients using research based approaches to fitness, mindset, nutrition and lifestyle. I have an approach that is about supporting YOU to find YOUR way, rather than dictating exercise and nutrition. In 2021 I’m adding NLP to my skill set to continue to enhance my work with clients.

I’m a mum of 2. I love the outside, I even like running in the rain. I learnt to love exercise in my 20s and trying new forms of testing my strength, coordination and fitness. I feel privileged to have the opportunity to make this my profession and honoured to work with women to enhance their love of exercise too. I love good fresh food and cooking for my (occasionally ungrateful) family. Bouncing back from my own injuries and ups and downs helps me with yours too. Optimising our wellbeing is never linear!
