Raw Reality

Romanticising life is everywhere right now, on TikTok, Instagram, Pinterest and while it’s sold as self-love, for so many women it’s become just another pressure. In this episode, we unpack the difference between using romanticising as a tool for joy versus letting it become an escape from reality. We talk about what it actually means to slow down and appreciate small moments, why self-care doesn’t need to look aesthetic to matter, and how chasing a “that girl” lifestyle can leave you feeling more inadequate than inspired.

We share raw moments from our own lives where we have felt the pressure creep in and how we pull ourselves out of it - creating main character energy from confidence rather than comparison.

By the end of this episode, you’ll walk away with a new perspective on self-love: ‘your life is still beautiful on the days that don’t make Instagram’. We hope you enjoy xx

If you’ve ever felt bloated after every meal, unsure where to even start with gut health, or overwhelmed by the endless supplements and TikTok trends — this episode is your permission slip to slow down and simplify.

In this mini episode chat with naturopath Tia Miers, we unpack the real non-negotiables when it comes to healing your gut (especially while travelling), why your libido and hormones are more connected to your digestion than you think, and how things like stress, pace, and even your morning coffee routine could be making things worse.

We always get asked how to start socials and the ins and outs of the industry, so wanted to bring a full episode going into depth on the topic. Today we share how we got started on social media - from our very first posts and PR packages to the lessons we wish we knew earlier. We talk about finding your niche (or not), creating content that feels authentic, and pushing past the fear of judgment. You’ll also hear our honest take on brand deals, editing, and the unglamorous side of being online, plus answers to your biggest questions on growth, income, and turning social media into more than just a hobby. If you take anything from this episode it’s to post the content!! We hope you enjoy xx

If you’re waiting to feel ready — spoiler alert: you won’t.

In this mini episode, we’re breaking down why messy action is the only way to move forward.
We talk about:

• Why perfectionism is killing your momentum

• How to throw yourself in before you "feel ready"

• The secret power of saying yes when you're scared

• Why you don’t need a plan — just guts

Confidence comes after action, not before.
The water doesn’t get warmer. You just get braver.

A solo episode today from Lily, talking about if she had to start her online coaching business again these are the things she would avoid. 3 years deep she has learnt a lot about the fitness industry and starting her own business, so wanted to share some insight to help you if you’re on the same journey. Starting a coaching business can feel overwhelming, and it’s easy to fall into common traps that slow growth and cause unnecessary stress. This episode breaks down the biggest mistakes coaches make in the early stages and also highlights the game-changing shifts that create momentum to build a successful business. Whether you’re just beginning or looking to refine an existing business, this conversation will help fast-track results and avoid years of trial and error.

Feeling stuck between two paths? In this mini pep talk, we unpack the pressure of making big life decisions in your 20s — whether it’s moving, changing careers, ending a relationship, or saying yes to something new.

We talk about why there’s no perfect choice, why it’s okay to change your mind, and how to explore all your “what ifs” without spiraling. Making a decision means sacrificing something, but it also means learning who you are in the process.

This one’s for you if you’re afraid of regret, tired of overthinking, or just need someone to remind you — you’re never too old to change.

We hosted our launch event last week with Muscle Republic celebrating our merch drop - it was absolutely incredible and we are truely blown away by the support. We did a live Q+A and panel chat which we wanted to make a live episode for those who couldn’t come. 

We’re diving into all things purpose, confidence, and chasing big (sometimes a little delulu) dreams. We chat about why purpose isn’t something you chase, how self-love comes from action, and building confidence in who you are rather than just what you achieve.

We get real on failure, routines that actually stick, moving your body in ways that feel good, and surrounding yourself with the right people. Plus, we answer some juicy questions you asked us live! We hope you enjoy xx

In this episode, Tori sits down with one of her best friends, Taylor, to unpack what it really takes to grow on social media — and spoiler: it’s not about looking perfect or going viral. They talk about choosing your "why," building a community instead of chasing numbers, and how vulnerability is the key that most people avoid.

Whether you're just starting or feeling stuck, this episode will reframe your perspective, show you how to lean into your story, and remind you that it's supposed to be hard. That’s what makes it worth it.

If you're building something online, you need this chat.

GUYS IT’S FINALLY HERE - our collection with Muscle Republic! This episode we are spilling the tea on all the BTS moments on how it came to life - from the very first phone call to the moment we held the finished pieces in our hands. We share why we teamed up with MR instead of going solo, the inspo behind every colour, cut, and quote. 

We dive into how we designed the merch, navigating imposter syndrome, and the surprising lessons we learned working with a brand that’s always two steps ahead of the trends. Basically the secret is OUT and we want to share everything with you. Thank you so much for supporting us on this wild journey, we couldn’t do it without all your support.

We also dive into the truth about birth control and weight loss and how to finally stop fighting against your body and start working with it.

Whether you’re an athlete, in the gym for general health, or just tired of feeling blindsided by your cycle every month, this is your ultimate guide to syncing your training, nutrition, and mindset with your hormones.
