Welcome to How 2 Be More
Personalized coaching that honours your body, your history, and your goals — without pressure or perfection.
Every person carries a unique story shaped by their experiences, challenges, and goals. That's why I don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Whether you're here to get stronger, move without pain, find balance with food, or feel more like yourself again, we start by understanding you — then build a plan that fits your life.
From one-on-one and small-group training to integrative health coaching informed by Traditional Chinese Medicine, every service is built around the whole person: body, mind, and lifestyle.
Not just strong bodies, but strong individuals.

My Approach
True transformation begins with compassion, self-awareness, and empowerment — not pressure or punishment.
Your body, mind, lifestyle, and past experiences all play a role in where you are today. Rather than masking symptoms or chasing quick fixes, I focus on uncovering the root causes behind what's holding you back — whether that's physical pain, emotional stress, or patterns that no longer serve you.
I meet you where you are and walk beside you as you build sustainable, meaningful change — creating plans that work with your life, not against it, and helping shift your inner voice from self-doubt to self-trust.
This is more than fitness or nutrition. It's a space for choosing balance over burnout, progress over perfection, and self-trust over self-doubt — so you can feel at home in your body and live with strength, purpose, and joy.
Jordan Macdonald
Founder, How 2 Be More
I'm a certified personal trainer and integrative health coach with over 12 years of experience in strength training, nutrition, intuitive eating, and mindset coaching — and I'm currently studying Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture.
My work blends evidence-based training with an integrative understanding of the body. I specialize in injury-aware training, sustainable habit building, and nervous-system–supportive approaches to movement and recovery.
I also draw on mindset and emotional wellbeing work — helping clients understand their patterns around food and movement, break all-or-nothing cycles, and build consistency that actually lasts.

My Story
Earlier in my career, I competed as a bodybuilder — an experience that taught me discipline, structure, and physical resilience. Over time, it also revealed the limits of rigid, appearance-focused approaches to health.
Stepping away from competition led me into a deeper exploration of my relationship with food, movement, and self-worth. Through education, intuitive eating, and mindset work, I rebuilt trust with my body and learned that real transformation doesn't come from control or perfection — it comes from understanding, self-awareness, and compassion.
That journey became the foundation of How 2 Be More: a space for people who want to feel strong without burnout, nourished without restriction, and supported as individuals. Today, I guide others with the same principles that helped me find balance — so they can rebuild trust with their bodies and feel confident in who they are, not who they think they need to be.
