Breaking free from toxic fitness culture, and building a routine that works (with Sarah’s Day)

Right everyone, it’s time for a part two. Way back in 2023, Sarah Tilse, also known as Sarah’s Day came on the podcast, we had a super honest chat about the early online fitness industry, and how she looks at it retrospectively. So when I knew I was coming back to Australia, I knew we needed a proper catch up. And once again, it’s a big chat, with a lot covered! I hope you love it! + SARAH'S DAY Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@SarahsDay Website: https://sarahsday.com/ Instagram: https:...

Kayla Itsines reveals all: selling for $400m, starting a new chapter & pregnancy after loss

I genuinely think 18 year old me would be in complete disbelief that this episode exists. So for some context for anyone who hasn't been here for 10 years, Kayla Itsines is the reason I started this Instagram account at all, I literally had “Kayla” in my username because my page was dedicated to doing her guide. In a weird way, everything that came after that was a complete snowball effect into what I do now, and what my life looks like, so getting to sit down with her felt very, very full circl...

How to think clearly in the age of AI, anti-intellectualism, and doomscrolling with Shae Omonijo

We can’t avoid the AI conversation, and honestly, pretending it’s not happening is the worst possible strategy. So instead of speculating or panicking, I want to have a really open, frank chat about what it’s doing to our brains, and how we can control it. So I started looking for an expert who was actually thinking seriously about this space, not in a hypey way or a doom way, but in a thoughtful, academic way.

Why your glow up isn’t working (and how to actually do it) with Dr Ewoma

You can do all the glowing up in the world, but here’s the thing, if you don’t actually trust yourself, none of it means anything. I’ve worked really hard on my self confidence and self assurance over the last few years, and honestly, it’s been way harder than I expected. Even now, there are days where if someone questioned me enough, I’d genuinely start doubting things I know are true. And that’s not because I’m incapable, it’s because I’ve learnt that self belief does not come naturally to mos...

You don't need to buy a new wardrobe to find your style, here's my formula

If you’ve ever stood in front of a full wardrobe and still felt like you had nothing to wear, let me tell you, you are not alone. I’m going to be really honest with you, I find deciding what to wear SO hard, not only do I never give myself enough time, but my neurodivergent brain makes it very difficult to visualise outfits beyond my go-to items, but at the same time I really want to be creative and enjoy getting dressed, and nothing makes me feel better than a great outfit!
