Welcome to Be Fit & Fueled - let me introduce you to my vision. We all have obstacles to overcome, and for a lot of us these can feel more complicated than they need to be when taken on alone. BFF is here to guide, assist and support you, whatever the journey you are on.
Anja's Story
Originally from Norway, Anja moved across the world, and landed in Vancouver, British Columbia in 2013. This literal journey was only one step in the greater adventure Anja was creating, though an important one. Inspired by challenges of her own, such as recurring injuries, multiple surgeries, being overweight (and not wanting to be), and persistent stress, it was time to make huge - and lasting - changes.
Exercise became her way to empowerment, which led to a career change and a bold move.
In Vancouver, Anja pursued her newfound passion for training and the mind-body connection, and got certified as a personal trainer. She then continued her fitness journey by completing her diploma in holistic nutrition in 2015. More recently, she dove deeper into the world of holistic health, and got her specialization in pre- and postnatal fitness.
She has competed in strength and fitness challenge competitions such as Femsport and loves flipping a heavy tire, hiking to the top of a mountain or cross country skiing.
In 2019 she felt it was time for a change - got certified as an Online Trainer, and moved her business online. And she now trains clients in North America and in Europe.
"Throughout this process, I sought the advice of a few invaluable mentors and specialists in my fields, and I feel like I discovered my true calling. My mission is to pay it forward! I want to help others who, like I did, feel like they need a change - and want someone by their side as they are working towards it."
