HerWay. Strength Studio

Gloria Steinem 1934 - 2026

She made room. We’re still using it.

Gloria Steinem died this week at 92. She spent her life proving that a woman’s voice belongs everywhere, in journalism, in politics, in the room, at the table. She co-founded Ms. magazine when no one thought women could run their own publication. She fought for reproductive rights, workplace equality, and the simple idea that women’s issues are just… issues. Not niche. Not secondary. Central.

She didn’t do it quietly. She did it in public, for decades, and she never stopped.

Her fight was American, but it didn’t stay there. It rippled out, into ours. Australian women were having the same arguments, fighting the same battles, in their own way, at the same time. Different accents, same belief.

At HerWay, everything we’ve built, the studio, the brand, the community and it stands on ground that women like Gloria helped clear. Same belief she carried - that a woman’s strength, her voice, her space, isn’t something to ask permission for.

Thank you, Gloria. Rest easy.

Our condolences to her family and everyone who loved her.

A few snaps with Mon tonight..

Mon is one of our newest coaches and she is such an asset to the HerWay. Strength Team.

A few words from Mon…

I was told standing was enough, even in pain. That I didn’t need my full athletic function back.

That experience changed how I see strength. It showed me how often women are told that just “getting by” is enough. That we don’t need to be strong, capable, athletic.

Rebuilding taught me the truth: our bodies can do so much more than we give them credit for. Strength isn’t just what you lift — it’s trust. Confidence. Independence.

That’s why I coach.

I want every woman I work with to feel stronger and more powerful in her own body — whether that’s a PB she never thought possible, moving without fear, or realising she’s capable of more than she was told.

I’m here to help women rebuild trust in their bodies. I want us to know exactly how strong we can be. 💪

Meet Mata. 🤍

She knows what it’s like to start and stop. To lose the thread of discipline when life gets hard. To drift from the things that once made her feel alive.

She rebuilt, through faith, the right support, and one step at a time.

Now she coaches women who feel lost, who’ve lost confidence, who just need a safe space to believe in themselves again.

“Courage isn’t found on your best days. It’s found on the days you don’t feel like showing up, but choose to anyway.”

Waitlist for October is open. Train with Mata.
