Jeff Horn. The school teacher from Brisbane who became a boxing world champion.

With his unassuming personality and friendly disposition, it’s still hard for me to believe that Jeff can step into a ring and literally try and punch someone in the face. Many times. But after our chat I could his passion and determination to be the best.

This was an interesting chat because it’s the first person I’ve spoken to, who hasn’t quite retired. He’s not competing, he has no fights lined up, but hasn’t yet hung up the gloves for good. It was a fascinating insight into his thoughts around retirement and whether we still might see him in the ring!

Jeff is such a nice dude and I really enjoyed this chat, and I hope you do too x

I was so unbelievably nervous to do this interview.

Jodie Henry has been a rival, she has been a competitor and now she is someone I count as a friend.

I really wanted to do her incredible career justice and I wanted to share different parts of her story, which is also sharing parts of my story, as our lives for a period of time were so heavily intertwined.

I count myself incredibly lucky to swim in the time of Jodie, as annoyingly talented as she was, she made me better. She has always been one of the nicest people you could ever meet, which made it really hard for me to try and compete with her!

Her transition into life after sport was relatively “smooth” but it was her transition into life after kids are at school, that made her start to realise that she was looking for new challenges!

Jodie is as delightful, kind and thoughtful as ever and I know you’ll love this chat as much I did! Enjoy xx

In January, Jamason Daniels took to Facebook to pay tribute to a fellow AFL player who had recently died by suicide.

What the post also did was describe in beautiful and painful detail, his own experience of AFL, of being delisted and starting from ground zero. With no job, no money and no qualifications.

Jamo’s story is not an isolated experience in transition out of sport and this conversation is one of the most important reasons I wanted to start this podcast.

Let’s bring this topic into the spotlight and find out, in Jamo’s own words “what more can we do for these young men and women who give everything to a sport or passion and find themselves filled with shame, embarrassment and no direction?”

Welcome back to the first episode of 2022!

When I was a young swimmer growing up, I had posters of Michael Klim, Geoff Huegill and Scott Miller.

So my inner 13 year old, fangirled to the max speaking to this weeks guest.

Michael Klim famously lead the team - in a WORLD RECORD btw - in the 4 x 100 freestyle relay at the Sydney Olympic Games. It has to be one of the most iconic races in Australian history.

It was so wonderful to sit and chat with Klimmy about his career and how not everything went according to plan. We spoke about how he has navigated life from elite athlete, to business founder and owner, to living a slightly more quiet life in Bali with his swim school.

This chat made me realise that you can continually reinvent yourself, and find more meaning and more depth through your experiences!

I loved this chat and I know you will too! Enjoy xx

A pretty special episode to round out 2021.

What happens when, after years of hard work and dedication, your goal of competing at an Olympic Games or winning a gold medal don’t come to pass? What happens when you fall achingly short of that dream? And not only that, how do you navigate your partner achieving everything you hoped to do in your sport?

My husband Luke was forced to navigate all of these challenges through our relationship and his swimming career.

I really wanted to share Luke’s experiences because I’ve seen firsthand how difficult this was for him (though I probably have only now appreciated just how hard it was for him through this chat - basically a counselling session ) but I’ve also seen what he’s been able to translate those experiences into, in his career after sport. I have no doubt that one of the main reasons he’s become as successful as he has, is because he didn’t reach the levels he wanted to in swimming but has been able to apply everything he learnt from sport.

Look, I’m not going to lie. I loved this chat, I think he’s a pretty special guy (I know I’m biased!) and I hope you enjoy too!

Thank you to everyone for listening this year. It’s been so incredibly special for me to create this podcast and hear your feedback, see where you’re listening and hear what you’ve learnt or enjoyed!

And finally, very special thanks to Jase from @stozkiymedia for actually getting these conversations out into the world.

Wishing everyone a safe and happy holiday and can’t wait to be back in 2022! xx

Tayla Clement has been through more in her short life than anyone should ever have to go through.

Born with the rare Moebius Syndrome which causes facial paralysis and also resulted in talipes (otherwise known as clubfoot). This enabled her to gain qualification into para sport and despite going through extraordinary difficulties which we talk about in our conversation, she continued, if only for a short time, to have an incredibly successful sporting career in TWO vastly different sports.

This is a funny, difficult, honest and beautiful conversation with a woman who has been through so much and yet has the most kind, warm and loving outlook on life.

We all have so much to learn from Tayla. I absolutely loved this conversation and I’m sure you will too.

Enjoy x

Just a warning that this conversation discusses suicide and sexual assault, so if any of this is an issue for you, please call Lifeline on 13 11 14 or reach out to 1800RESPECT

I was going to make a joke about how this is a podcast episode only my mother will love - mostly because it really does feel entirely self indulgent, to dive into my past life and swimming career.

But that’s a disservice to my coach, Stephan Widmer who was the most important person in my swimming career. He radically changed the trajectory of my achievements and without his guidance, drive and singleminded focus/intensity, I wouldn’t have been the athlete I was.

And yes, it did my ego wonders to chat about how, once upon a time, approximately a million years ago, I was really good at something. And to talk about it with someone who was with me every single step of the way, but Steph is also the first coach I’ve spoken to on the podcast, and it was so wonderful to hear about the role coaches play in athletes lives, how they are constantly striving, how an athletes disappointments hurt them as much as it hurts us.

So many retired athletes, head into coaching so this is an opportunity to hear from one of the best.

Jake Edward’s had a family legacy to live up to. Three members of his family had played more than a 100 games of top tier AFL and he wanted to follow in their footsteps.

But what does it look like when life doesn’t turn out that way?

Jake spoke so openly about his experiences with mental illness and drug and alcohol addiction. This two part episode delves into his life through his AFL career, his rock bottom, getting the help he needs and re-learning the lessons when he dove into the darkness again.

So many people will connect with Jake and his ability to communicate his story will help an untold amount of people, especially young men. I’m grateful for Jake sharing so honestly. I think you will be too.

In life, I’m coming to realise more and more, that mindset is everything. That was certainly the case for Kerri Pottharst and her incredible win on Bondi Beach at the 2000 Olympics with teammate Natalie Cook. Their gold-medal winning mindset took them to the top of their sport at a home Olympics and is something that Kerri continues to utilise to this day.

That’s how she was able to push herself on the SAS course at 55 years old and continues to grow and develop to help other women reach their high performance potential.

Kerri is a wonderfully inspiring woman, who doesn’t let anything slow her down. I know you’ll love this chat!! Enjoy x
