Hello

​

I’m Dr Masi. The Sport, Exercise & Lifestyle Physician. Medical doctor. Health coach and advocate. Physically active wife and mother of two. I run, ski and lift (babies and other light weights). 

​

Founder of HERSELF HEALTH – a Health & Wellness company. Creator of The Busy Mum’s Healthy Lifestyle Check-in program – a personalised program for any woman not just mums.

​

My Why for Lifestyle as Medicine?

My mission is to make success healthy & happy for you and your family.

 

I hope to inspire and empower you, the working mum, to foster healthy, sustainable lifestyle changes. Above all, I hope you will show up as the best version of yourself, for yourself first. In addition, I believe you will achieve your success & happiness through health.

​

Why Lifestyle as Medicine?

What's the deal? After struggling with career-personal life balance during my final years of Sport and Exercise Medicine Fellowship Training, I realized I needed to establish a healthy lifestyle as the foundation for success. 

 

As a result, I began researching, which deepened my knowledge and encouraged me to explore different things. What I discovered inspired me to create a framework that has had a significant impact on not only myself, my family, and my career. 

 

I discovered  Lifestyle as  Medicine! 

​​

I was able to break through what appeared to be an insurmountable barrier in my career by consistently implementing what I learned. 

 

I passed the fellowship exams and was certified as a Specialist in Sport and Exercise Medicine. In addition, I earned the designation of Board Certified Lifestyle Medicine Physician. 

 

Above all, I learned how to make change happen. 

​​

So now, not only am I a Sport, Exercise, and Lifestyle Physician, but I am also a game changer – a health coach.

​

Just for you!

Through personal & professional experiences, I discovered the challenges for working mums. I saw the need to make success healthy and happy.
