Sonia
the quiet one
“It is that I sit in the same chair for nine hours and then go to bed and then wake up and do it again.”
Slow mornings, self-talk, small goals she actually closes, and the films and books she keeps pressing on the other two.

Sonia, Clare, Dani
Who you are hearing from.
Clare
the composed one
47 · two kids · a senior job she is good at
“Dani told me I need to stretch my hip flexors. I told her I need to stretch my day by about three hours.”
Movement inside a day that does not exist, food without three hours of cooking, and every chair, meeting and flight in between.
Dani
the trainer
45 · played tennis professionally · now coaches women only
“That is not aging. That is furniture.”
Client stories, whatever the internet is losing its mind over this week tested on herself first, and the nights out she does not apologise for.
they take turns
Whoever writes to you in the morning, the other two have usually answered her back by lunch.
What arrives, and what never will.
Every morning
One short letter, written that day by whichever one of them it is.
One small thing to try, for your own body, that day.
Their week, their arguments, and whatever one of them is annoyed about.
Never
No workout plan, no reps and sets, nothing to fall behind on.
No diagnoses and no supplement stacks. If it needs a doctor, they say so.
No pity, and not one word about fighting your age.
