Hi! I’m Cristíona, originally from the west of Ireland. My journey has taken me across the world, from studying and working in law, to spending years in modelling, dabbling in acting, and now to where I feel most aligned—mentoring and coaching high-performing individuals to optimise their health, energy, and longevity. I’m a licensed personal trainer, with certifications in Plant-Based Nutrition from Cornell University and Health Coaching from the London College of Naturopathic Medicine. My approach blends science-backed strategies with a holistic, personalised method that supports both physical and mental well-being. But the lessons that shaped me didn’t come from textbooks or careers. They came from experience, resilience, and deep personal growth. I’ve loved deeply, navigated challenges, and evolved with every season of life. Divorce, reinvention, and redefining my purpose have taught me that true well-being goes far beyond just training and nutrition—it’s about mindset, self-trust, and long-term vitality. Through it all, I’ve learned this: The most important investment you will ever make is in yourself. This reel is a glimpse into the first half of 2024—highs, lessons, and the people and places that have shaped me. I’m endlessly grateful, and I know this is only the beginning. If you are ready to step into your strongest, most energised, most confident self—with a coach who understands the nuances of high-performance health, personal training, longevity, and self-mastery—let’s talk. You don’t need another quick-fix program. You need a bespoke strategy that fits your life. 📩 DM me or book a call to find out how we can work together. The best investment you’ll ever make is in your future self.

I get it – feeling stuck, low energy, and unmotivated isn’t fun. I’ve been there too. But here’s what I’ve learned: 👉 Happiness and progress don’t come from waiting for motivation to strike. They come from building routine and discipline, even in the smallest ways. Right now, I’m settling into a rhythm here in Canggu – training, working, and creating structure for myself. That discipline brings me so much clarity and energy. And yes, part of that routine means holding on for dear life on the back of a scooter to get where I need to go 😅 – but it’s all part of the process! If you’ve been feeling stuck or waiting for the “perfect time” to get back on track, this is your sign to start today. You don’t need to overhaul everything at once – just take one small step, and the rest will follow. If you’re ready to build the discipline, confidence, and belief you need to change your life, I’d love to guide you. Let’s work together to create a routine that works for you. DM me if you’re ready to start, and let’s make 2025 the year you stop feeling stuck. 💪

When I first met her for a photoshoot, I thought to myself: wow, what a woman full of serenity! Confident, calm, choosing her words just right—every movement she made during the shoot was elegant and assured… I already miss creating with you @cristionaaston!

Some postcards from Cambodia I forgot to post 💌🐒🇰🇭 Cambodia moved me in ways I didn’t expect. From the awe of Angkor Wat to the quiet strength etched into every stone, this land carries the weight of ancient empires and the scars of recent history. The resilience of the Cambodian people—after decades of loss and rebuilding—stayed with me. A place where beauty and heartbreak live side by side. So grateful for the still moments, the stories behind the stones, and how this journey reminded me to slow down and really feel where I am. I could have just sat under some of these trees for hours, the energy was so strong. សូមអរគុណប្រទេសកម្ពុជា – thank you, Cambodia, for the lessons held in silence and stone. “What survives us is what we’ve built in others.”

Can you relate: I used to be so anxious and stressed that I’d need a gin and tonic or a glass of wine just to relax (take the “edge” off) in the evenings 😮‍💨🫠 And now I’m so happy to say I really don’t. Finding balance & enjoying a delicious glass of wine now and then, not complete abstinence has been key for me. I don’t fill my body with unnecessary toxins and even more so, I fill my cup with movement, grounding in nature, friendships and meaningful connections. Alcohol, even one glass, affects my sleep. And it’s a depressant, so while I know it may numb my pain in the short term, in the longer term it does more harm than good. And this is just the tip of the iceberg that alcohol consumption inflicts on us both as individuals and as a society as a whole. If you need help or support letting go of habits that you KNOW are not serving you, get in touch now for a FREE discovery call to chat about your health concerns and goals. 🫶🏼 Also, have a wonderful weekend everyone! ✨💟

Consistency is key for me, but also is knowing when to take a break, soften, let go ❤️ Back training today @bambufitnessbali after choosing to fully immerse in my MTT course for the last two weeks. I haven’t sat so much for a long, long time and it was really challenging for me. But I let go, I’m so glad I did. I don’t panic these days if I let my training slip for a couple of weeks if life is calling me to fully experience fully something else. I’m thankful I have learnt to listen to my body.

Swipe for 100 hour Meditation Teacher Training culmination bliss in Bali, with an incredible group of humans. One word remains reverberating through my body and that is connection. It’s all around us, we just need to get out of our own way to feel it and let it flow, meditation gives you the space you need to realise it🧘🏻‍♀️📿 Thank you everyone at @alchemyyogauluwatu and especially you @yogawithashton for your wisdom, humour and knowledge of the traditions.

Me time @yasminvillasbali One of the most transformative habits I’ve cultivated - and one I’d love to share with you, if you don’t already do it - is a regular journaling practice. It’s not just about writing down how “crazy” my ex was, what Karen said or didn’t say, what I said or didn’t say, or what I had for dinner. It’s about coming back to myself, seeing myself. Noticing myself. Becoming aware and connected to my own patterns, my triggers, my thoughts, my stories, my self sabotage and my heart. Connecting deeply to oneself and to the world. Journaling untangles my mind, helps me process emotions, and gives me space to explore my shadows, my deepest desires, and the vision I hold for my life. If I ever feel disconnected from myself, this is where I start, although these days my routine means I do it twice a day. Recently, I spent two days immersed in self-care rituals at the stunning @yasminvillasbali. Thank you for the beautiful stay, and @ruilucas_ for capturing these soulful moments 🙏🏼✨

Happy International Woman’s Day I love helping women feel strong and radiant—not just in how they look, but in how they move through life, how they show up for themselves and others, and how deeply connected they feel to their own essence. True confidence isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s about energy, alignment, and the way you embody your own power. Feeling good in your body is about more than just workouts and nutrition—it’s about honouring the vessel that carries you through this life, nourishing it with movement, breath, stillness, and love. It’s about stepping into your divine feminine, embracing every phase of your evolution, and remembering that your inner Goddess has always been within you, waiting to be fully expressed. When we prioritise our well-being—physically, mentally, and spiritually—we align with our highest purpose. We show up more fully, love more deeply, and move through the world with a quiet, unshakable confidence. If you’re ready to awaken your strength, sensuality, and self-trust, I’m taking on three VIP 1:1 coaching clients this month. DM me or click the link in my bio to begin your journey. Today, and every day, let’s celebrate the depth, resilience, and beauty of being a woman. Our bodies, our minds, our spirits—limitless in power when nurtured with intention.
