As a boxer, its easy for everyone to think that your biggest flex is your right hand. But after chatting with Koen, we could see it was another part of him, and that was his mindset.From winning some, to losing some and drawing some, what Koen focused on outside the ring is something that sets him apart from the rest.

Also known as Malicious; he talks us through being able to tap into the savage, to the soft, and be the person he needs to be for any situation.

He has been under the bright lights centre stage, to the darker hours in a mental health facility for drug abuse; but he used every experience as a learning curve, and he is now on a mission to helping others do the same.

This is Against the Ropes, with Koen Mazoudier.

After the success of episode 2 on Marriage, Apps and Awkward first dates we just had to give you an update on the dumpster fire topic of being a single female in sydney. *insert stank face 

Sandra had her first experience on tinder, we discuss cheating scandals and whether men can just quit it with holding fish in their profile photos - seriously it's not a vibe. 

And we can't forget about a good old game of "he a 10 but..."If you're looking for a laugh then make you listen in to this episode.

Bold lip, soft lip, smoky eye, contour, highlight, flawless, matte, gloss - the beauty industry needs its own dictionary with pictures to explain what it all means. 

With the number of instagram filters available these days, who even needs a make up artist?

Chantel Rahme, a.k.a The Make Up Expert has been painting faces and enhancing beauty since she was old enough to hold a brush. From following in her Mothers footsteps who once owned a beauty and hair business, Chantel has also created her own line of beauty products - CR Luxury Cosmetics. From Sydney to LA Chantel has benchmarked herself not only for her talent, but her caring nature and genuine love for her clients - each treated uniquely for who they are and what they are looking for. 

Chantel is an advocate for education; and while some may pride themselves on being "self taught" in their bio, it will never compare to someone who has done the work and learned the lessons. 

This episode will leave you wanting more. 

Being the class clown in the group is fun... until its not. Lucky for Jim, his boys are the real deal and told him how it is, straight to his face.  Jim always had talent and passion, but he never gave himself the chance to bring it to the spotlight even though he was told over and over again, he has what it takes.   In this open and honest conversation, Jim shares his experience of giving up lifting beer jugs to lifting weights and losing an incredible 20kilos. 

Quick on the pads, down to earth and as real as they come; its no wonder he and his friends have created a culture like no other at Legends Gym Sydney.   Listen in as we sit down with 'one of the boys' for a chat. Its a vibe.

Divorced. Broke. And a complete loss of identity. At only 30.   It would be enough to break most people.  

But giving up wasn’t an option for Lena – now a mum, business owner, mindset coach and Somatic Healer.   

We discuss the marketing traps of mindset coaches, the pressure we place on ourselves to ‘have it all’, and the discomfort you need to go through to create change in your own life. Listen in as we chat about the pain of losing it all, and the joy of gaining it back and more.

Mid Size, Plus Size, Petite, Hourglass, Apple - why are we classified based on our body shape?

Lately there has been a rise in the mid size movement; a pocket of women that are considered "medium" and the "in between".  With the rise of this movement, and others such as plus size and body positivity -  we have also seen women who are considered petite or skinny; trying to trend - by creating social media content pushing themselves into these categories. How many times can you change your body to fit in? Are we really going to follow the Kardashian body trends forever?

Each of our bodies is uniquely different, from the colour of our skin, to our dna make up - why do we keep grouping women based on one characteristic - the size of their pants (and butt). Kim K getting (or not getting) a BBL was every plastic surgeons dream - every girl was lining up on the doorstep of any clinic that had an available appointment to enhance the size of their behind. Kim K then flipped the script and had her BBL removed - awkward silence​

In this episode we unpack this concept of our bodies fitting into a trend. Is it the need to belong, the need to stay relevant or the need to have a label so you feel ok in a community of others that share your identity.

What category do you fall into?

Is there such a thing as an overnight success?   

What originally started as a side hustle during Covid Lockdown quickly became a full time hustle when Olivias house quite literally turned into a warehouse.  Olivia operating her own laser clinic and her husband working as a security guard - they both made the decision to leave their full time roles and pursue their online sneaker and streetwear business which now operates out of a shopfront in Moorebank.   

Their success was fast but it didnt come without blood, sweat and tears - despite what it might look like on social media and on the news.   Olivia talks candidly about the reality of owning a successful business, being a mother trying to juggle it all, social media, infuencers and how relationships with family and friends changed in light of her success. A mumpreneur who is now sharing her creative flair and has opened up her own photo studio.   

Warning - this episode might make you ask yourself - "do you have what it takes"

Being a Life Coach or a Mindset Coach seems to be the new IN thing; but will this fix your life, or girlfriend….do you need therapy?

New Year New Me"" is an easy time to be drawn into buying THE program that's going to change your life, but are you signing up to see a miracle happen without you actually having to do "the work"... again?

Your motivation is there; you've been '"inspo'd but you just can't seem to push through when you are in a shitty situation. We get it, we've been there and go through it too.

Are you actually too busy [tired/poor/overwhelmed etc]  to achieve these goals or do you just not want it badly enough? Are you constantly doing the "fluffy" work and expecting your PT to fix every area of your life without actually peeling back the layers and doing the groundwork first?

What even is a mindset coach? Can they really be the missing link between you and your goals?

Listen in as we explore this buzz word trending the fitness industry.

Warning: you might be called out on your sob story.
