Mini Motivation: Olympian Jana Pittman on how to stop fear holding you back


Listen Later

In this Mini Motivation episode we are facing our fears head on. Host Amelia Phillips and Olympian Jana Pitman discuss how as mothers we are hardwired to seek out threats, dangers and anything that poses a risk to us or our families. But this can sometimes come at a cost to us, not going for that promotion, or following our dreams. 

Jana has consistently faced her fears and led an incredible life as a result. She shares her strategies and the stories that have shaped her. 

Note: This episode discusses birth trauma and perinatal loss, listener discretion is advised.  

About the guest:

Dr. Jana Pittman is a two-time World Champion, four-time Commonwealth Games gold medallist, and dual Olympian. The only Australian female athlete to have competed in both the Summer and Winter Olympics.

After her decorated sporting career, Jana reinvented herself more than once. Today, she’s a doctor specialising in women’s health, a mother of six (including twins), a passionate advocate for women in midlife, and a familiar face from SAS Australia, where she was the last woman standing in Season 2 and the only woman to complete the gruelling ladder troop extraction.

Her story is one of courage, reinvention, and what it truly means to step into fear and emerge stronger on the other side.
