Sound familiar?

The old rules stopped working

“I don't feel like myself anymore.”
“I wake up at 2am and can't get back to sleep.”
“Belly fat, low energy, and I forget everything.”
“I could always juggle it all. Then one day I just couldn't.”
“Anger and anxiety I never had before.”
“My doctor says my results look fine. I don't feel fine.”

You're not imagining it. And you're not alone.

38+

It isn't a lack of willpower. From your late 30s, sleep gets lighter, muscle is easier to lose and fat moves to your waist, even when the scale barely changes. Your body changed, so your strategy should too. We help you understand what's going on and give you a simple system, so you don't have to work it out alone every day.

Why a coach?

You already know what to do. So why isn't it working?

Protein, steps, strength, calories. You've read it all. Knowing isn't the problem. Doing it on a Friday night, after a long week, with a sick child and no plan, is. That's when an app or a PDF goes quiet, and a real person makes the difference.

1

Someone who sees your patterns

We look at your food log and check-ins and spot what you can't see from the inside: the same evening, the same trigger, the same thought.

2

A plan for your hardest moments

Easy days don't need a coach. Together we plan for the day when everything goes wrong, so a bad day becomes practice, not failure.

3

Someone in your corner

When motivation dips, we're the ones who check in. You don't have to figure it out alone, and no one will judge you for a bad week.

Information shows you the way. Coaching helps you actually get there.

Client stories

Real women, in their own words

“Thank you so much! I noticed one thing: the more steps I take, the better I feel. Lighter, with more energy, more zest for life and simply happier. On a harder day, when I walked less, I really missed my walks. I'd heard about steps before, but only in theory, and it never clicked. Only in your coaching did I understand how important they are. People really need coaches like you. You open people's eyes to how small steps can make big changes, and you teach us not to give up after a bad day.”Maggie D., 66 · UK
“They prepared a complete plan for me that takes into account my health, my abilities and my current fitness. Nothing in it is random: everything is matched to me and my pace. Thanks to their advice I have more energy and more will to live and act. I feel I'm regaining control, and I believe more and more that I can reach my goal. Agnieszka and Paweł combine great knowledge and professionalism with empathy and attentiveness. We're in regular contact, and I really feel that when I need their support, they'll be there.”Agnes B., 52 · Poland
“Being monitored with individualised coaching and having to check in has made the biggest difference. The programme is very helpful in helping one to keep on track and is better than just having an app. Keep up the good work!”UK client, 57 · name withheld for privacy
“Working with Agnieszka and Paweł, I've started paying conscious attention to what I eat. I still eat the food I like, which is what I love about the programme, but now I look at the calories, and in my case that works brilliantly. After just 3 days I felt I had more energy, and that I could spread it across the whole day.”UK client, 61 · name withheld for privacy
“I came to Agnieszka and Paweł when I felt stuck. Despite my knowledge and awareness of what I was doing, I wasn't seeing results. What I value most is that I don't get ready-made templates: I feel someone really analyses my case and looks for answers. I feel not only guided but, above all, cared for and listened to. And maybe most importantly, thanks to them I'm starting to believe again that the change I dream of is really possible.”Beatrice S., 36 · Poland
“Thank you for guiding me so well: for your full commitment, your patience and, most of all, the support and energy you give me for the days of fighting for myself. I'm so glad I have you. You're well prepared, full of passion and always growing in coaching, nutrition and fitness. Working with you is pure pleasure, self-development and an investment in a better version of myself.”Milena S., 43 · Poland
“What I like most is that everything is matched to the person, to what she can do and where she is right now. The exercises aren't imposed from above. Only when I started logging my meals in the app did I see how much and what I really eat. That awareness alone changes a lot. And you never feel left on your own with it all.”Margaret S., 48 · UK

Our approach

Two sides of change. You need both.

Most programmes only give you the body part. Without habits and the right mindset, it falls apart in the first bad week. We work on both at the same time.

Body

What you do

  • Calories A gentle deficit, tracked in a simple app
  • Protein At every meal, to protect your muscle
  • Steps Daily movement, your most important habit
  • Strength Training that fits where you are today
Mind & habits

How you make it stick

  • Habits One small step at a time, until it feels easy
  • Hard days A plan for the moments you usually fall off
  • Thoughts & emotions All-or-nothing, guilt, emotional eating
  • Identity Becoming the woman who does this naturally

Body without habits is just another diet that ends. Habits without the basics bring no results. Together, they move you forward.

About us

Meet your coaches

Agnieszka & Paweł Otrzonsek

We're a married couple and a coaching team. Agnieszka graduated from the University of Physical Education, is a PE teacher and works as an online fitness coach. Paweł is a Precision Nutrition coach.

Healthy eating, training and an understanding of how habits really work have shaped our lives for many years. Among friends and family we were known as the healthy couple, and that is how our coaching began: people kept asking us for advice on health, weight loss and eating habits, until they encouraged us to do it properly. That's how Energy Culture was born.

Then life tested everything we thought we knew. Despite years of training and eating well, Agnieszka's body stopped responding the way it always had, and she was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition. It was a turning point. She had to slow down, listen to her body with far more care, and rethink how she trained and how she ate. She also learned to watch her energy closely: what gives it, where she spends it, and where it quietly drains away. Her old habits stopped working, because her body was unwell and needed a different approach. She had to learn new ones, built around the body she has now. We went through that process together, step by step.

It changed the way we coach. We know from experience that a plan for the body alone rarely lasts. Lasting change comes from the whole picture: how you eat and move, the habits that carry you through busy weeks, and the mindset that brings you back after a hard day. That is what we bring to every woman we work with.

Questions

Frequently asked

Is this for me if I'm in perimenopause or menopause?

Yes, whether you're in perimenopause, menopause or not sure yet. Sleep, energy, appetite and where your body stores fat can all change in these years, so we go gently: enough protein, strength, steps and small habits that fit how you feel right now. We don't diagnose or treat. For symptoms or medication, your doctor is the right person, and we'll work alongside them.

Do I have to count calories?

For a while, yes. We use tracking as a learning tool, not a punishment. Once you know what works for your body, you track less and less, and in the Freedom stage you learn to manage without it.

Do I need a gym?

No. A pair of dumbbells at home is enough to start. If you already go to a gym, we'll use it.

How much time does it take?

A few minutes a day to log your food and tick off your habit, and a short summary at the end of the week. Strength training starts from just 5 minutes and grows with you.

What if I have a health condition?

Tell us at the start. For some conditions we'll ask you to check with your doctor first, and we'll adapt the plan to what they recommend.

What happens on the free call?

15 minutes by video or phone. You tell us what feels hardest, we ask a few questions, and together we see if we're a good fit. No pressure and no hard sell.

I already eat about 1,600 calories and nothing changes. Why?

That's really common. First we look at your real log together: the numbers are often different from what we think. Sometimes your body needs more protein, more steps or strength training first. We never start by cutting more.

I've tried Noom or Slimming World. What's different?

A real person reads your log every week and knows your life. No points, no colour codes, no branded food. Just small habits we choose together.

I'm on HRT or GLP-1 weight-loss medication. Can I join?

Yes. Your doctor stays in charge of your medication. We help with what medication can't do for you: enough protein, strength training to protect your muscle, and habits that stay.

Is there a contract?

No. You pay every 4 weeks and can stop before the next 4 weeks start. We suggest giving it at least 12 weeks, because strength and new habits need time to settle.

Which countries do you work with?

Women across the UK, Europe, the Americas and Australia. Most of our contact is by message, so time zones are easy, and we book calls at a time that suits you.

How much does it cost?

£150 for every 4 weeks of 1:1 coaching. Your first week is free, after a short call, so you can see how we work before you decide.
