Hello, I’m Georgie Okell (they/them) I’m a Personal Trainer, Nike Well Collective Coach, Co-Founder of Pecs Education, and Co-Founder and New Business Director for BEND, the LGBTQIA booking platform app.

Aside from coaching and building queer and trans community within the fitness and wellbeing space, I’m also a speaker who focuses on delivering talks and workshops around making the industry a more inclusive space. I have spoken at some of London’s most prestigious universities on this subject and curated events for Pride weeks/ months.

I have written for several media outlets in recent years around the subjects of exercise, mental health and addiction, citing personal struggles with addiction in a piece about ultramarathon running for the Guardian in 2019.

I qualified as a coach in 2016, before cutting my teeth at boutique studios including 1Rebel and Barry’s Bootcamp where I taught HIIT classes, boxing, and spin. Before 2016 I worked on numerous television shows in the UK and US, hosting T4, Ski Sunday, and Fuse News (US) amongst others. Between 2014-16 I created, produced and hosted wellness app Headspace’s podcast around how to live a happier and healthier life.
