Sporting Achievements
Given these achievements, it may be surprising to hear that from an early age, June was painfully shy and struggled with low self-esteem. This was the catalyst to driving herself too hard - with damaging consequences. Pressure and stress led to challenges such as bordering on anexoria when young, and years later suffering the effects of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. this was the tipping point at which she decided to take a step back and find a healthy balance - which is exactly what she tries to instill in others now. Junes' earnest desire is to help people not only to look amazing and be healthy, but to be confident and happy with who they are. ​
