Meet Rosie, a married mum of three and a former NSW police officer who has faced incredible adversity. Medically discharged due to PTSD, Rosie has not only overcome her own challenges but has become a powerful advocate for first responders and veterans, driven by her own experiences and the fact that her husband serves in the army. 

As the founder of Tactical Yoga Australia and the host of her own podcast “Triumph Beyond Trauma”, Rosie is passionate about taking care of your mental health, especially in professions where the toll can be so heavy. 

In this raw and honest conversation, we dive into our shared experiences, talk about overcoming trauma, and discuss the importance of supporting our mental well-being, no matter what battles we face. It’s an episode full of resilience, strength, and hope, and I can’t wait for you to hear her inspiring story.

Today, we kick off the first episode of an 8-part series where I’ll be sharing my personal journey with the WA Police. In this episode, I’ll take you back to the beginning—what it took to get accepted into the force, the rigorous training at the academy, and the immense highs and lows that shaped my early career.

I’ll share the pride and excitement of stepping into the uniform for the first time, alongside the challenges and obstacles that came with the intense physical and mental demands of the training. But this chapter isn’t just about the achievements—it's also where I began to encounter workplace bullying, something that would test my resilience in ways I never expected. 

Join me as we dive into the early days of my policing career, setting the stage for the deeper conversation around strength, perseverance, and finding courage amidst the struggles. This series is about more than just my story—it’s about how we all navigate difficult experiences and come out stronger on the other side.

Welcome to the first episode of The Everyday Warriors Podcast (TFP rebranded), and today we're diving into a topic that affects so many—sexual harassment and discrimination in the workplace. 

Meet Simone, a married mum of two, who faced the challenges and pain of working in environments where she felt disrespected and unsafe. A topic that I am all too familiar with along with many other females in the workplace.

But as painful as those experiences were, they taught Simone the importance of protecting her energy and setting boundaries that honours who she is. Through resilience and self-discovery, she made the decision to move on from those toxic spaces and create a business that’s not just aligned with her own energy, but one that helps others do the same. 

Today, we’ll explore how you can turn adversity into empowerment, honour your true self, and build a life that supports your growth, well-being, and purpose. Whether you’ve been through it or know someone who has, this conversation is about healing, reclaiming your power, and working in ways that align with your energy.

In this episode we dive into an epic adventure of healing and self-discovery as I share my personal experience hiking the 1000km Bibbulmun Track, end to end. This wasn't just a physical journey—it was a transformative path I chose as part of my PTSD healing process. Step by step, kilometre by kilometre, I walked through the dense forests, along the rugged coastline, and over the challenging terrain, not just to reach the end but to find my way back to myself.

The Bibbulmun Track became a metaphor for my healing—a journey where every step brought me closer to rediscovering who I truly am beneath the layers of trauma and pain. With the vastness of nature as my only company, I learned to confront the inner battles, embrace my vulnerabilities, and reconnect with my own strength.

Becoming an *Everyday Warrior* wasn’t about conquering the track; it was about conquering the fears that had held me back. This episode is a raw, honest reflection on how putting one foot in front of the other can help heal not just the body but the mind and spirit as well. Tune in and join me on this powerful journey of resilience and rebirth.

In this personal episode I discuss my upbringing in the Roman Catholic Church.  It's not about judging the church itself or others but rather about seeking understanding and finding one's own path and belief systems. 

In my experience, religion has offered a framework for exploring some of life's biggest questions, but it has also provided a sense of community and belonging throughout my early childhood into early adulthood.

I have discovered it is crucial to discern our own lives and beliefs rather than simply adopting those of our families. Our spiritual journey is unique and is shaped by personal experiences and insights. Embracing this individuality allows us to grow authentically and find a deeper connection to our own values and truths.

Join me as I dive into an extraordinary journey of grace, passion, and unexpected twists as I share the story of my first marriage.

 From the thrill of being a debutante to discovering a profound love for ballroom dancing, to marrying my dance teacher, my life has been a whirlwind of waltzes and cha-chas. 

Together, we built a family, raising two beautiful children and I navigated the complexities of being a step-parent. But life on the dance floor took an unexpected turn when my marriage ended after seven years as he moved on with another woman from the dance community.

 Despite the heartache and challenges, I look back with no regrets, embracing every step of this unique journey and the ultimate gift of my children.
