I AM OFFICIALLY A MAT & REFORMER PILATES INSTRUCTOR!!

I’m back after a few weeks off due to this busy thing called life! But I am so excited to be back in your ears again! a slight change to note ... I will be posting episodes every 2nd week (on a Wednesday at 5:30am) for a little bit just to allow me to put all my energy into the episodes.

Butttt on that note, today’s ep is one for my girlies who love pilates or are looking at studying pilates! I share my personal experience of what courses I studied with Studio Pilates to become a mat & reformer pilates instructor plus give some tips on how to pitch yourself when it comes to getting hired as an instructor - coming for someone who just landed her first reformer pilates job an hour before recording this episode!

Eek I am so excited to start another passion project and of corse I will be filling you all in on everything to do with pilates as I start this new chapter!! Ps, come to one of my classes if you are based on the Sunshine Coast in QLD, I would love to see you there!!

As always if you have any questions about anything pilates (or anything else mindset, manifesting and endo) message me, I would love to chat!

The final episode for March and of course the final episode for Endometriosis awareness month 💛

In this ep I share some surprising facts about endo that I learnt as a sonography student that you might not know!

I have done some extra research to prove that endo is a difficult disease and the statistics show it! One article states that "Endometriosis influences 10%-15% of all reproductive-age females and 70% of women with persistent pelvic pain". How crazy are those statistics!

I want this episode to spread awareness for Endo! Share it around to your family and friends so that the truths of endo come out sooner than later!

I appreciate and love you all so much x We are strong endo queens 🎗️

Another episode for Endometriosis awareness month except this one is where I go really personal and tell you the vulnerable parts of my endo journey. By sharing my journey I hope to give you feelings of "I'm not the only one" or "if she can heal, so can I!"

I talk about moments from my worst endo flares, how I dealt with 3 laparoscopies, to chats with my gynaecologist about my fertility at the age of 20.... But I also give you some advice on how i have slowly healed my chronic illness and what I changed in my life to do so.

I don't want this episode to be one of poor me, look what I've been through or wanting sympathy at all. I want it to be one that is relatable to many women, one that is spreading awareness of how vulnerable we become when living with a chronic illness and one that makes women feel heard, seen & loved!

It can be so hard, but if you want to start to heal your endo, then please have a listen tot his episode! And share it around to your friends and family or anyone who might need to hear this! If I can slowly heal my body, so can you! You just have to START!

March is endometriosis awareness month which I know is a vulnerable month for so many women 💛

In this episode I share my story from the beginning of my journey to now. I chat about all of my symptoms I have experienced, seeing a naturopath, a gynaecologist, a pelvic floor physiotherapist and I briefly touch on infertility (which is another vulnerable topic for so many women).

I give advice on what you can do if you are at the the beginning of middle of your journey and I share insights into the paths I took to slowly heal my endo/adeno. And trust me - it is possible! Even if it doesn't feel like it, you can heal xx

I am giving every endo/adeno warrior the biggest virtual hug, I see you I feel you and I hear you - it is so hard, but remember you are strong enough to push through!

Another solo ep where I chat about my personal experience with fear and how I continue to work through it when it regularly comes up in my life. One thing that limits fear for me when it comes up in the moment is bringing myself back to the present, back to now and replacing the worst case scenario with the exciting "what if's".

Fear is always going to come up because its our "safety brain" our "comfort brain" BUT it is how you work through fear and where you choose to send your focus on fear. If you can train your brain to NOT focus on the fear, but instead the exciting "what if's that could happen", your brain will soon begin to register this each time fear sneaks through.

Remember, you are not alone! Fear comes up for everyone in many different ways, but know that you can have the tools and techniques to work through fear!

If you loved today's episode please share it on to someone who you think would resonate with it xx

Our 2nd guest episode for season 2 is coming in with a bang!

I had the honour to chat with Nikkita Smith (aka @the.nikks) on all things biz, self-discovery and of course our lessons transitioning into our early 20's. Nikks owns 3 businesses and is a walking ray of sunshine! I feel so grateful to be able to bring in her beautiful energy to the poddy community! This is the first episode on the glow within poddy that I have felt a sense of fulfilment after recording! Honestly, our conversations bought awareness, connection and inner-knowing to life and I hope you all resonate with this from listening to the episode!

If you want to go "ahhh yeah I can relate to that" as a young female transitioning from a uni degree into business while going on a self-discovery journey, then this ep is truly for you! Be ready to feel heard, loved and connected after tuning in x

If you loved this episode please give it some love and share it around to anyone else that you think might resonate!

If you need some motivation to just START the thing you said you were going to start weeks, months or years ago - this is your sign to JUST START!!

When I tell you I have really been feeling into fear and second guessing myself on launching my new business, I truly have been. Which is actually funny for me to say because this is something I want to help women with while they level up their own lives. But I have done a lot of reflection and realised the energy I am putting out needs to be the energy I am wanting to teach. SO for the last 48 hours I have just started taking action on my biz, and can I tell you the amount of motivation I have now, just from starting, is something else!

SO JUST START what you said you were going to do! Action leads to momentum which leads to motivation which leads to taking more action which leads to success! JUST START x

In today's episode I chat about how I have been filling my cup first of a morning so that I can give to others feeling high-vibed and energised, purely because I have made time for myself before anyone else. I have been doing this of a morning and can I just say, I have been feeling more fulfilled during the day, I am more inspired and I am more likely to help others with purpose rather than a "I have to" feeling. Plus do not feel guilty for saying yes to yourself first - this is needed!

I also give you some tips on how you can start filling your cup first (aka spend time doing the inner work or doing the things you love and the things that light your soul on fire)!

Your challenge for the rest of the week is to do 2 things to fill your own cup first in the morning! It could be journaling, going for a walk, whatever it is, do it for YOU!!

In this episode I chat about how tapping into my mind-body connection and actually feeling my emotions & feelings has allowed me to become more expansive and aware! I also chat about how burnout is created and how to overcome that burnout feeling! (Yes, even in January I feel like we can get burnt out already...)

So this is a little episode sharing some love from me to you to tell you that if you are feeling off and not like your authentic self lately, it is ok! Make sure you feel and tap into those feelings & emotions! Because if you keep pushing these emotions down, it can lead to burnout! Trust me I have been there (very close to it) and we don't want burnout for 2025!
