The path that changed everything
My Journey to Personalised Health
Hi, I’m Rachel Marks, a personalised health coach and founder of All Active. I didn’t have a typical start for someone who would go on to work in health and fitness. Physical education at school wasn’t something I enjoyed, and team sports never appealed to me. I genuinely thought I had two left feet and struggled with anything requiring coordination. Even long walks as a child felt like a chore rather than something enjoyable.
In my 20s and early 30s, exercise was inconsistent and fairly haphazard. Although I stayed slim, I wasn’t particularly fit or strong. It wasn’t until I developed a chronic health issue that I committed to a more structured approach to fitness and lifestyle. That shift proved life-changing — helping me regain the strength, energy and vitality I had lost through illness.
Experiencing that transformation firsthand inspired me to change careers. I initially qualified as a personal trainer and later trained as a personalised health coach and NLP practitioner. I became deeply passionate about helping people feel better in their bodies — not just through exercise, but by understanding how mindset, habits and lifestyle choices influence health, energy and wellbeing.

How My Experience Shapes My Personalised Health Approach
After 23 years working across health, fitness, wellbeing and behaviour change, I’ve seen firsthand that no two bodies respond the same way. That experience led me to create a truly personalised online health programme — one that brings together genetics-based insights, lifestyle factors, mindset strategies and practical guidance to support each individual’s unique needs.
My approach focuses on refining all aspects of lifestyle — using the Epigenetics Personalised Health system — because sustainable results rarely come from exercise alone. When food, movement, sleep, social connections, mindset and environment are aligned with your unique biology, change becomes more achievable and easier to stick to long term.
While I’m based in New Zealand, I work with clients around the world through personalised online programmes and 1:1 coaching.
