Tyler Clark

What you see now, doesn’t show the adversity she battled in her past……. Her journey from struggle to strength. Tyler was sent to prison and consumed by obesity, drugs and mental health. She is now a business owner, author, BBC Contributor and semi-professional athlete. Change is possible! With her interest in the human mind since the age of 13, she is now studying a BSc Psychology degree at University.

Tyler was dealt a tough set of cards. Her life was turned upside down at the age of 13, after her parents went through a long divorce where she let go of herself and lost control of her emotions. Her mum turned to alcohol, and she spent her teenage years living with an alcoholic. She went from a size 8 to a size 18 in 4 years, through binge eating and using food as a way of finding comfort.

Her mental health hit its worst at the age of 17, where she self-harmed and tried to commit suicide but was luckily found and admitted into a mental health unit. She had turned to the use of alcohol and drugs to try and escape the reality of emotional pain and trauma. Spending her teenage years in the midst of street life and gangs, nearly took her life.

In 2014, Tyler hit rock bottom, where she found herself in trouble with the law, a million-pound drugs conspiracy involving cocaine and cannabis, she received a prison sentence. Tyler says "I lost everything, including my freedom. This was my turning point; my life had to change - my final chance."

Since then, Tyler wasted no time to turn her life around in 2016, her time spent in prison gave her time to recalibrate her meaning in life, she began her mission to improve herself and her life. In doing that, she found a passion for fitness and began making changes to her lifestyle and began a journey of self-discovery. Five years into this journey she found herself inspiring others to do the same. She has been through every stage of the journey, from rock-bottom to happiness and success. Throughout this, she has learnt skills and mindset tools that help others so that she can help others from making the same mistakes she did growing up.

Tyler now lives her life as a business owner, while also volunteering for charities and as a semi-professional athlete. This year she took on her biggest challenge yet, to be a recruit on series 6 SAS: Who Dares Wins. Tyler successfully made it to the final stage out of 23 recruits and stood proud as the final female left. This was where she was able to put her mental strength and resilience to the ultimate test. Tyler now knows she can put her full trust into herself and her ability to help others achieve what may see as impossible.
