When I first found out I was pregnant, one of my biggest questions was: Can I still exercise safely?

In this solo episode, I'm sharing exactly how I've adapted my training throughout pregnancy, the mindset shifts that have surprised me most, and why movement has become more empowering than ever.

We chat about:

• How I've safely modified my workouts during pregnancy
• Why eating more and gaining weight is essential for your baby's health during this era 
• The importance of strength training (especially your posterior chain)
• Why some movement is always better than none
• The biggest mindset shifts that have helped me embrace this season

I also open up about navigating body image during pregnancy after experiencing an eating disorder, and how this chapter has helped me build a healthier relationship with food, movement and my body than ever before.

Whether you're pregnant, planning to conceive or simply looking to build a stronger relationship with exercise, I hope this episode reminds you that movement isn't about shrinking yourself. It's about supporting your body through every season of life.

Gut health can feel so confusing. With endless advice on social media, it's hard to know what actually works.

In this solo episode, I'm sharing the four habits that made the biggest difference in healing my gut, along with the biggest lessons I've learnt through my studies in functional medicine at the Institute of Integrative Nutrition.

We chat about:

• Why dietary fibre matters more than chasing food trends
• The connection between stress and digestion
• How alcohol impacted my gut health
• Supporting your body's natural detoxification systems
• Why everything in the body is connected

Whether you're struggling with bloating, constipation, food anxiety or simply want to feel your best, I hope this episode gives you practical tools and hope that healing is possible.

When I completed my Pilates teacher training a few years ago, Emma Seibold quickly became someone I looked up to. So sitting down with the founder of Barre Body felt like a real full-circle moment.

In this episode, we chat about how Emma grew Barre Body from a single studio into one of Australia's leading wellness brands. We also dive into leadership, building a purpose-led business, the importance of strength training for women, and how our approach to movement should evolve through every stage of life.

Whether you're dreaming of starting a business, becoming a Pilates instructor, or simply wanting to feel stronger in your body, I know you'll take so much away from this conversation.

We’re back with Mimi Bouchard for a second conversation, this time answering your community questions around manifestation. We talk about what to do when something you’re trying to manifest isn’t happening, how to navigate setbacks, and how to move through breakups and emotional challenges without losing trust in yourself or your path.

Mimi Bouchard is an entrepreneur and founder of Activations, an app that combines mindset, visualisation, and neuroscience-based tools to support personal transformation.

In this episode of Selfdom, I’m joined by entrepreneur and author Mimi Bouchard, founder of Activations, an app that blends mindset work, visualisation, and neuroscience-backed practices to support personal transformation.

We explore the power of identity, manifestation, and the subconscious mind, and how our internal world shapes the reality we experience. Mimi breaks down what it really means to become the person who has the life you want, and why belief and visualisation are such powerful tools for change.

We also go deeper into money, love, self worth, and what it takes to actually shift your life in a grounded and sustainable way.

This is a conversation about creating change from the inside out and expanding what you believe is possible for yourself.

In this special episode of Selfdom, we’re sharing all the details for an upcoming community volunteering event with Thread Together.

Following our conversation with CEO Anthony, we’re inviting our community to get involved in a hands-on way and be part of addressing clothing waste and clothing insecurity in Australia. Around 30% of new clothing ends up in landfill, and this event is an opportunity to help redirect brand new, unsold clothing to people who need it most.

I’ll also be joined by my husband Tom, who will be DJing on the day to create a great atmosphere as we come together to give back, learn, and connect.

If you’ve ever wanted to do something meaningful with your time and understand more about what really happens to unsold clothing, this episode will walk you through everything you need to know.

In this episode of Selfdom, I’m joined by Anthony, CEO of Thread Together, an Australian charity tackling clothing waste and insecurity.
Around 30% of new clothing ends up in landfill, while many people in our communities are in need of basic essentials. Thread Together is closing that gap by rescuing brand new, unsold clothing from retailers and redistributing it free of charge to people experiencing hardship.
After recently volunteering with the team, I was deeply moved by the scale of the issue and the dignity this work restores.
We discuss the hidden reality of fashion waste, what clothing means in times of crisis, how brands are responding, and what a more sustainable industry could look like.
If you care about conscious consumption and meaningful impact, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss. We are also hosting a community event to give back - link here to sign up!

Before our baby arrives, we wanted to have the conversations that matter. We talk about how we hope parenthood will shape our relationship, the fears we have, the patterns we want to break, and the values we want to bring into raising our child. A vulnerable conversation about love, partnership and creating a family while still protecting who we are.
