When she was young, Gemma was put down about the way she looked by her friends and family. This created emotional damage that affected her life for years – and multiplied the pain from trauma she experienced after a tragic loss in the family. She turned to bodybuilding as a sort of release, and defence / avoidance mechanism to hide from this pain. After spending years actively working through her past, she’s in a much better place now. Today, Gemma is passionate about helping young girls work through bullying, building their character and sense of self-worth. She believes that with the right support, girls can recover and heal from emotional trauma quickly before it impacts their lives in serious ways as adults.
