Meet Her Smile Client Stephanie Dickinson.
As a child, Stephanie hated sports and used to get out of sports day as much as she could.
When she was 16 Stephanie's hip started aching. She was sent to a specialist and he diagnosed Hip Dysplasia.
When she was 37 she was in so much pain she insisted that the Doctor replace her hip. They had tried cortisone injections, anti-inflammatories, but nothing worked.
In 2013 her knees started giving her trouble. Having dysplasia meant her knees didn’t develop properly and she ended up with 2 knee replacements in 2014 & 2015 and another hip replacement in 2020.
Consequently, her weight went up, her mobility went down and she struggled to walk unassisted.
She tried so many ways to help herself including chiropractors, physiotherapists, hypnotism, naturopaths, PT's, Pilates, yoga, and the list goes on.
In 2021 Stephanie heard about Adele Haussmann and Her Smile.
In January 2022 she began her journey with Her Smile.
One 60-minute Zoom PT session per week.
After two online PT sessions with Adèle, Stephanie saw her 4 year old granddaughter who looked at her and said,
'NAN! WHY DON'T YOU WALK BENT OVER LIKE THIS ANYMORE?'
You can imagine how excited Steph was with her progress in just one week!
After 16 weeks of training with Adele Stephanie was not only walking unassisted and without a crutch but was also climbing rocky steps in the mountains!
Over the next 12 months she lost 17 kilos and got a lot of confidence in her walking.
Stephanie has met so many women around her age who believe you can’t lose weight once you get over 50. She says it’s as not as easy as it was when She was younger, but it wasn’t overly hard either. Once she got into the routine of the exercises and diet it just became part of life.
Stephanie says ‘I am so grateful that I got in touch with Adele and she has helped me get to where I am now.
Go, Stephanie, we are so proud!

Thank you to beautiful Miss Galaxy Australia, Emily Egan, for interviewing Margret.
Meet Her Smile Client Margret Froggatt
Margaret is a mother of two boys with special needs and after years of not focusing on herself, she decided to change that!
She was in a bad rut and was not making good food choices, exercising or prioritising herself.
She saw a photo of herself and she thought, no! ‘I don't want to be 50, fat and frumpy, I want to be 50 and fabulous!’
Margret signed up to Her Smile’s 10-day Spring in your step challenge. She loved the journey she had begun and after the ten days continued with Personal Training with Adele Haussmann.
She’d never been a gym person, but once she got into the flow of it, it was something that worked for her.
She felt that she learned more about how food and exercise work together.
She had always put the boys’ needs first, never considering her own, never finding the time for herself.
Before she began the Her Smile programs, she felt sluggish and lethargic with not much energy. She then started to see the kilos come off and was amazed at how much better she was feeling inside and out. She was also being noticed for her weight loss achievements.
Adele’s message of making me a priority finally sunk in.
Margret then did the Her Smile 30 days to a Revamped Wardrobe and the Her Smile Unique Colour Analysis.
My wardrobe was comfortable clothing, I was not interested in how I looked! Clothes were not a priority. I was comfortable wearing loose clothing, I did not want definition.
When I look at a ‘Before’ photo of me, I go wow, was that me? I didn't see that. It was just me.
Her Smile made me aware that I could become a better version of myself, if I put in the effort and made the changes.
Margret also signed up for the Her Smile Makeup Tutorial. She learned about the shape of her face and how to use makeup to become more stylish, and not look as though she was wearing too much makeup. She had never been a makeup person. Adele taught her how to use makeup to look fresh but natural. Margret found it very informative, a good learning experience.
Margret also did the Her Smile Skincare education. She just grew up with what her mother did, using products from the chemist. She had no understanding of a toner, a cleanser or anything like that. Margret has enjoyed Adele’s ongoing education.
Margret’s advice for other women is that it's never too late to start! Make time for yourself and you will see the benefits.
Margret has lost 27 kilograms since starting with Adele, and ran the Sydney City 2 Surf for the first time this year.
People have noticed the difference in her now. She wishes She had started earlier!
Margret says Her smile has certainly helped her discover her smile.
"Thanks Adèle Haussmann for believing in me, pushing me, educating me, and weekly kicking my butt!"

Thank you to beautiful Miss Galaxy Australia, Emily Egan, for interviewing Robin.
Meet Her Smile Client Robin Lanham
Working with Adele Haussmann has been the life-changing experience Robin Lanham had been looking for.
After retiring from a very demanding career, it was time to re-evaluate her lifestyle. She recognised her lack of energy, weight gain and fatigue which contributed to some health issues.
She began her journey with Her Smile by doing the Her Smile 10-day Spring in Your Step challenge. This was fun, motivational and a good introduction to exercise.
When she completed that, Robyn signed up for weekly personal training ( via Zoom) with Adele.
Adele’s focus on attention to detail and ensuring correct technique enabled Robyn to increase her strength, improve her mobility and refocus her attention on the value of a good daily exercise routine to the point where she looks forward to doing something daily. (A program set out by Adele)
Robyn says, “I have to admit some sessions were tough, just extending my comfort level a little each week, however, Adele has always offered support and encouragement and I always felt exhilarated ( and sore ) after each session.”
The Her Smile 30 days to a revamped wardrobe saw Robyn review her lifestyle and develop a more suitable wardrobe. The cleanout of the current wardrobe was very therapeutic, the whole experience was very cathartic!
The Her Smile weekend Retreat brought all of Adele's skills and experience forward to show Robin a holistic approach to health, wellness, and self-image.
It included exercise, shopping, makeup, personal colours, nutrition advice and healthy options ( and yes it’s okay to break out and have treats occasionally), High Tea and a Broadway Show. The Retreat was also an opportunity to meet like-minded women and develop new friendships.
Food and weight management have been harder for Robin as much of her social life revolves around food. She has made many changes by following Adele's advice.
Robyn is conscious about what she puts in her mouth, eating clean with minimally processed food and making better menu choices when eating out. Drinking more water and only having alcohol on special occasions.
This has resulted in dramatic improvement in her blood tests which her doctors are thrilled about.
Currently Robyn's weight has reduced by 10kg!
This Her Smile Journey has been a total personal transformation, Robyn feels energised, fit, healthy, happy and smiling!
A friend recently said ‘when you walk Robin, you wouldn’t know that you’ve had a knee replacement as you have such good posture!'
Robin’s advice to anyone seeking a healthy happy life, stop procrastinating and make the move !!!
We are so proud of you Robin!

Thank you to beautiful Miss Galaxy Australia, Emily Egan, for interviewing Carol.
Meet Her Smile Client Carol Lamb.
One of the Her Smile clients to bravely walk the runway showcasing their incredible transformational stories through the Her Smile programs.
Carol is dressed by beautiful Saloon Design House in Braidwood.
Before Carol came to Adele Haussmann she was an active person but was looking for some results and changes in her body.
She looked fit and healthy, but she wasn’t progressing or seeing any real changes in her shape and definition. She felt ok but definitely not as confident as she does today.
Carol started her training with Adele by doing the Her Smile 10-day Spring in Your Step walking challenge.
She was introduced to the foundations of exercise and a community of other women who were all on the same journey. In this challenge, she learned how to walk properly, have some fun in a supportive environment, and most importantly set the foundations of how to exercise correctly.
After completing the challenge Carol started weekly Zoom PT sessions with Adele where they have built on that foundation.
Carol has progressed, strengthened & toned, lost weight, and gained confidence in her ability, herself, and how she looks and feels.
Her fitness level is the best it has ever been.
She can do 30 push-ups on her toes(not knees), skip, box jump, and do a handstand all of which have amazed the instructors at the gym as she wasn’t able to do these exercises before.
Where is she now?
Carol is 59 and has been training with Adele for 2 years and continues to have her PT sessions with Adele, do the exercises at home, and gain strength and tone.
She looks and feels a lot more comfortable and confident than before she started with Adele.
She gets lots of compliments about how fit and well she looks.
Many people want to know what she is doing but aren’t prepared to do the work or change how they eat, which is their choice.
People often comment that she doesn’t look old enough to have a 31-year-old daughter which puts a smile on her face.
As a result of her confidence, Carol no longer relies on her 3 daughters for opinions about what to wear and question if she is too old to wear something as she has confidence in herself about what looks and feels good.
She bought a bikini and confidently wears it at the beach and in front of her family.
Carol has never liked having her photo taken but she accepted the challenge of being part of a photo shoot for Adele’s rebranding, which was fun and the photos are great.
She takes selfies to remind herself that she’s worked hard and is proud of her achievements.
Carol has also started modeling for an artist.
Go Carol! We are so proud of you ️

Thank you to beautiful Miss Galaxy Australia, Emily Egan, for interviewing Phillipa.
Meet Her Smile Client Phillipa McIntyre.
Phillipa was dressed by fabulous Sissa Sorella here in Canberra.
It was the end of lockdown in 2021. Phillipa had stopped exercising, and having trouble moving, and difficulty doing things she could do in the past.
She was spending lots of money on takeaway and food that was quick and easy. She felt uncomfortable in her clothes, which were the biggest size she could find for the style and brands she liked.
Phillipa found Her Smile in her local area one day while she was trying to get fit walking and eventually built up the courage to contact Adele via email.
Adele was quick to respond, and they soon held a video chat.
Phillipa started training with Adele, one PT session per week.
Adele was friendly, striking the right balance between motivating her when she slacked off and understanding when her body had reached its limit.
Phillipa's body now feels happy to move, and she is eating food that makes her feel good inside and out. She has enjoyed getting into meal planning and cooking with fresh food. She even started growing her own salad greens, tomatoes, and beetroot in her garden.
She has lost 17kg since contacting Adele and feels capable of doing the things she wants, such as getting up off the floor with ease, walking for longer periods, and playing with her children.
She has lost 15cm from her waist, and her clothes are beginning to hang off her rather than her squeezing into them. When she bends over or sits down, her pants no longer dig into her stomach. She feels confident enough to wear tighter-fitted clothing and move her body in them.
Her family has enjoyed the journey too, and her kids have said that the food they eat is "really yummy."
People have commented on how great she looks and are impressed by her habit of walking to work and eating healthy meals.
Phillipa does weekly PT sessions with Adele and has attended a few Her Smile 'Spring in your step” ten-day challenges, the Her Smile makeup tutorial, and has begun using the skincare Adele recommends. She was also a model for Her smile’s rebranding photoshoot in November last year.
She was a little unsure of how to best look after her skin and how to apply any makeup but after attending a Her Smile makeup tutorial earlier this year she left feeling beautiful. She feels more confident to apply her own makeup now, with less fear of all the brushes and how to look after her skin.
She has been using the skincare Adele recommends since May this year this has kept her skin clear and looking youthful gaining her compliments from work colleagues, family and friends.
Phillipa has started running parkrun again getting her best times since 2017.
She is able to do things in her everyday life and have the energy to move and play with her children.
Thank you Adele for changing my life!
Tatjana is Her Smile’s first client to bravely walk the runway at our inaugural sold-out High Tea and Fashion Show celebrating the transformational stories of Her Smile's clients through their Fitness, Beauty, and Fashion Styling programs.

Thank you to beautiful Miss Galaxy Australia, Emily Egan, for interviewing Tatjana.
Meet Her Smile Client Tatjana Keski-Frantti.
As a teenager with lots of time on her hands, Tatjana used to love to walk and admire the scenery, and go to exercise classes like aerobics. It brought her peace. That was when there were commitments to extended family but not a lot of responsibility.
Then life got more hectic, she found a boyfriend, got married, had children, and so on. This was a big part of her life where you are pulled in so many different directions that there is no time for you to do things just for you.
Even when walking or exercising during this time you were thinking of things that needed to be done once you were finished and you couldn't just smell the roses.
With Adele Haussmann’s help with the many things she does Tatjana has been able to see that we need to take some time for ourselves or we will burn out.
Before starting with Adele, she was feeling overwhelmed with life, running around getting kids to school and sports, work, family, and all the obstacles and challenges of life.
The knowledge she has for all her services is absolutely amazing and it is great that she shares these with so many clients and in her Facebook groups. Tatjana is always amazed that with all the knowledge Adele has she still looks to see if she can do things better and easier.
TJ was lucky enough to go to Her Smile’s Makeup Afternoon where she was able to learn how to apply makeup and experiment and find what worked for her.
She also attended the Her Smile Skincare Education and learned the benefits of using the correct skincare products. TJ grew up in a family that did not apply makeup much. This was something she knew nothing about and was trying to keep up with her daughter and her knowledge.
TJ has found the facials that Adele gives has also helped as Adele explains how to use each product and TJ feels that they do work.
TJ then attended Her Smile ladies exercise group training. She found these classes very helpful in learning how to exercise correctly.
She also attended the Her Smile ‘Spring in Your Step' ten day online program. She loved then moved away from Canberra so began weekly PT one on one with Adele via zoom.
She has learned how to take that time for herself and how to train correctly so that she will not injure herself.
TJ has participated in the Her Smile 30 days to a Revamped Wardrobe Online Program, before going on the Her Smile shopping weekend Retreat in Sydney.
It is very nice to be able to see what you have in your wardrobe and do a major cleanout. She then learned how to create a shopping list of what she actually needed in her wardrobe.
On the Her Smile weekend Retreat we did fitness, food prep, colour analysis, makeup tutorials (day and night), shopping for things that we put on our shopping lists that we created during the wardrobe revamp, High Tea at the QVB, and attended the musical Chicago. It was great to do all this with the company of lovely ladies.
The weekend went very quickly but TJ found it so helpful and she learned a lot of things to help her continue experimenting with colours and makeup.
Life can be quiet at times but then everything turns upside down and it is nice to find something that you can do to centre yourself again.
In the last 4 months TJ has managed to lose 6kg!
This is still a work in progress but TJ feels she is lucky that she has the support of so many people and an amazing place to live.
MOMENTS ARE TO BE ENJOYED and with the help she has received from Her Smile, there has been a lot to enjoy.
Thank you Adele and Her Smile!

Thank you to beautiful Miss Galaxy Australia, Emily Egan, for interviewing Caroline.
Meet Her Smile Client Caroline Watters.
Before Caroline met Adele Haussmann she was struggling with her weight. She used to hate walking. The arthritis in her feet was painful and her feet always felt numb whenever she walked. She was taking Panadol Osteo 2-3 times a day just to get through the day.
Her hands, feet, knees and back were constantly hurting. Her doctor kept telling her that she needed to lose weight and had started Caroline on cholesterol tablets. So, her health was beginning to suffer. Caroline knew she needed to exercise more and eat less but felt unable to do anything about it. She felt lost and depressed.
By chance, a friend told Caroline about Adele and a free class demonstration she was showcasing at her studio. So, Caroline went along thinking she had nothing to lose. As soon as she met Adele, Caroline knew she was the person she needed to give her the support she needed to get her weight and health under control.
She signed up then and there for her beginner class and also signed up for the Her Smile Spring In Your Step 10-day challenge.
Caroline was sold!
Adele’s regime was exactly what she needed and was looking for.
At the time of writing this, Caroline has lost 13kg and 25cm from her waist. She has gone from wearing size 18 to now wearing size 12 and is hoping to get down to a size 10.
She now feels so well, she is so excited that she is just about jumping out of her skin and the cholesterol tablets are just a distant memory.
Caroline finds the classes are very portable too.
She and her husband are doing a lot of traveling now that he is retired, and Caroline is able to do her classes via Zoom all over the country and usually in remote settings. Caroline takes all her exercise equipment with her in the caravan. If she has internet coverage, she does a class.
Last year, she and her husband were in Birdsville and Alice Springs and Caroline was able to keep her exercises up. She and her husband did lots of walking in Uluru, Kings Canyon and the East and West Macdonell ranges. Walks that SHE wouldn’t have contemplated before.
Caroline learned ballet until she was in her early 20s and hasn’t danced for many years. Working will Adele her flexibility is “ALMOST” back to her teenage years, and so is her physical strength.
Caroline is very proud to be able to do a handstand and a squat, She can skip up to 50 skips in 20 seconds and can now lift 5kg weights. When she started, it was a great effort to lift 1 or 2kg.
Caroline says Adele’s classes are fun and informative.
What she loves most, is the ladies all work at their own level, are supportive of each other and there is no judgment, only encouragement.
Caroline says, I’ll be doing classes with Adele for as long as she teaches. I’m so proud of how far I’ve come with my weight loss and fitness level. My general health is better than it’s been in years.
She also signed up for the Makeup Tutorial with Adele. She found it all a wonderful experience starting with education on how to prepare the skin for makeup. It was a lot of fun. It was really good to learn the makeup techniques as it was something that she had never been taught before.
Caroline is also enjoying the skincare that Adele recommends. She has felt a lot of changes in her skin since starting them over a year ago.
Thank you, Adele, for everything.
Caroline is dressed by fabulous Saloon Designs in Braidwood.

Thank you to beautiful Miss Galaxy Australia, Emily Egan, for interviewing Denise.
Meet Her Smile Client Denise Fattorini.
Denise’ journey with Adele goes back at least 15 years when she was looking for a beautician. To this day Adele still does Denise’s nails, waxing, and facials.
Back in 2013 Denise discovered that Adele was becoming a personal trainer and she was very interested and intrigued. She’s not sure why, but she said “yes, sign me up”.
This was huge for Denise to put herself first for a change. She is a very quiet person, self-conscious, has no coordination whatsoever and so this was entirely out of character for her. The big gyms frightened her. She really didn’t believe she was capable or good enough.
The night before she started training with Adele she was so nervous and anxious she barely slept. This appointment marked the beginning of her fitness journey.
Denise can clearly say it took her up to 6 months to stop having butterflies in her stomach before a PT session. She has been consistent with her fitness journey over the years, with 2 to 3 sessions per week with Adele.
Denise’s goal with Adele is to tone, sculpt, and maintain a healthy lifestyle. Each workout is varied and tailored to her needs. Denise finds her sessions are always hard but always with an element of fun to keep her motivated.
Right from the first session with Adele, she knew she had the right person teaching her as she stands by her side ensuring that every weight or stretch, she does is carried out correctly ensuring that she has the best benefits with no injuries.
She also participated in the her Smile ten-day Spring in your Step challenge.
Adele also styled and did her makeup for a photo shoot with her vintage car that her husband Kane bought her.
Denise has been with Adele for over ten years and is truly thankful for what she has given her in the way of strength, confidence, and coordination. She has lost weight, gained definition, and has a lot more energy to play with her two grandsons.
Adele has helped Denise with her diet over the years giving her all the advice required to maintain a healthy eating lifestyle.
‘I have learned so much from Adele with her willingness to share her knowledge and expertise. Adele has been nothing but encouraging and supportive of all aspects of my well-being. I have made a friend for life.’
Denise says that exercise makes her happy. It makes her feel confident. It makes her feel that absolutely anything is possible as long as she sets her my mind to it. As with all health journeys, her fitness journey is never-ending.
Denise we are so proud of you.
Denise is dressed by Simone from Simone Finch Designs.

Thank you to beautiful Miss Galaxy Australia, Emily Egan, for interviewing Sue.
Meet Her Smile Client Sue Burton
Before commencing with Adele Haussmann at Her Smile, Sue was suffering a lot of pain, in particular in her right hip. She had developed a limp and was very concerned that she may be facing hip surgery shortly.
The Her Smile online fitness and strength program has had the most impact on her life as she is now pain-free and no longer has a limp when she walks.
Sue is in her late sixties, is still working full-time in her profession, and in her spare time is doing her best to keep up with seven active young grandchildren.
She loves to travel whenever she can. She spends many weekends visiting friends and attending sporting events and concerts. Life is busy and active.
She had many tests for the hip with no definitive results about what was causing the pain. She also had a lot of back and shoulder pain from sitting at a desk all day.
Sue felt tired from managing the constant pain and she was investing regularly in massages to try to manage the discomfort.
Sue was walking daily but was unaware of the correct way to walk to minimise stress and injury to her body, so was potentially increasing the damage.
Since joining the “Her Smile” Community, Sue has attended the fitness and strengthening program and also the makeup tutorial, plus she has had facials and attended the skincare education webinar learning about correct skin care.
She has also done the Her Smile Spring in Your Step 10-Day Program twice.
It has given her a great sense of well-being and more energy and drive.
Sue is conscious of the need to concentrate on healthy food and good nutrition to maximise her health and energy. She shops and cooks quite differently now.
Sue can see improvements in the shape and the contours of her body, and she walks with more confidence and noticeably faster.
She is much more conscious of posture and using the correct muscles to avoid injury and is really enjoying regular lovely beach and local area walks.
Sue feels stronger when undertaking day-to-day tasks and has more flexibility. She can manage everyday tasks much more easily.
In terms of make-up, Sue attended the Her Smile Makeup Tutorial and can now apply her makeup more confidently and understand contouring and shading much better.
Sue feels that she has achieved a lot in terms of fitness and strength over the past year, and realises that she is just at the beginning of her journey.
She has had lots of compliments, in particular from her partner, who is impressed that she has stuck at it.
He says her coordination is also much better along with her strength. Sue is making better food choices and has more energy to keep up with her busy life.
Thank you, Adele!
Narelle is one of Her Smile’s clients to bravely walk the runway at our inaugural sold-out High Tea and Fashion Show celebrating the transformational stories of Her Smile's clients through their Fitness, Beauty, and Fashion Styling programs.
Click to listen to Narelle's life-changing story.
Thank you to beautiful Miss Galaxy Australia, Emily Egan, for interviewing Narelle.
Meet Her Smile Client Narelle Stoll.
Narelle says ‘Thank you Adele Haussmann for saving my life! Through your help, I have regained my fitness, confidence and health!’
Narelle Stoll first heard about Adele Haussmann and Her Smile when she attended a Zonta International District 64 event here in Canberra where Adele was a guest speaker.
Adele gave a talk on the importance of learning to move correctly to strengthen the whole body and prevent injury.
Adele spoke about the Her Smile Ten Day Spring In Your Step challenge being the best place to commence your health and wellness journey, and so Narelle signed up for the one in May 2022.
Her main goal and reason for working with Adele was to have more energy and confidence.
Since working with Adele Narelle has achieved the following:
• Increased her fitness from being out of breath when walking 4km slowly to managing 6km brisk walks in an hour.
• Losing 16kg in weight
• Achieving a work promotion with a new company in May 2023. After being made redundant in February 2023
• Achieving the Distinguished Toastmaster status in March 2023.
Narelle achieved all this despite a very serious health setback in August 2022 when she was diagnosed with a cyst on the brain and had to have brain surgery.
Following the surgery, she had 2 more seizures one in October 2022 and one in November 2022, which resulted in weakness in the left hand, and considerable loss of energy and physical fitness.
After the surgery last year and well into early this year Narelle was struggling physically.
As a result, she was made redundant and this turned out to be the greatest gift for her health as she now had the time to prioritise herself.
During this time, Narelle continued working with Adele online, and she went from struggling to lift 1kg dumbbells above her head in January this year, to strutting her stuff with 6kg dumbbells above her head in less than 4 months!
Narelle you have blown our minds with your incredible determination to regain your health. Getting back on your feet after the surgery and seizures was really tough but you didn’t give up.
During all this Narelle not only got a new job but was promoted!
What a recovery and what an amazing transformational story.

Meet Renee.
She is 71, has been training with Her Smile, and recently accepted the 'Lose 5kgs before Christmas' Challenge. She managed to lose 4.6kgs before Christmas and then in early January went on a two week cruise! She listened carefully to Adele's advice on how to eat and exercise on the cruise and only put on 500 grams.
Anne
Anne had a full hip replacement in November 2018 which left her with a limp because her glute muscles didn’t re-engage.
She became frightened to move and lost all her confidence.
She signed up with Adele from Her Smile in 2020 and learned how to exercise to reduce the risk of injury and strengthen the whole body.
