In this podcast I interview Amanda Meggison who is a passionate plant based endurance athlete but is poles apart from a tree hugging hippy that many of us might associated with being a 'vegan'.  The founder of Planted Life, Amanda believes the food we are eating today is making us fat, sick and nearly dead and we need to change our relationship with the foods we eat.    

Throughout this podcast it is hard not to be influenced by Amanda's contagious enthusiasm and her passion for plants and I love her approach, 'recalibrating people's palate'. So if you are interested in looking after yourself this is a great podcast where Amanda encourages you to 'think differently' and have a healthy relationship with food.

Amanda, gives us a snap shot of what a typical 'vegan' lifestyle might look like as well as providing some great meal options and examples throughout.  So if you are consuming too much meat (like myself), have a poor relationship with food, or you are just inquisitive about plant based eating this is a fantastic podcast to download.

Remember, 'Make Health a Habit'.

This podcast is designed for people in need of an overhaul, or are lacking motivation, direction, education or all of the above.  This podcast is designed to help individual kick start their wellness journey through acknowledgement and identification.  The Health Bloke is a realist, a husband, a father of three and a small business owner that understands the importance of constantly reviewing your Dimensions of Health in an effort to create a balanced approach to wellness (life).  Too many people live with external pressure dictating their livelihood and struggle with the idea of 'work life balance'.  The Health Bloke firmly believes that everyone needs to design their own personalised wellness blueprint around their own goals and ambitions.  He encourages people to identify with themselves, for themselves rather than comparing themselves with others.

Throughout this podcast The Health Bloke focuses of four particular dimensions;

*  Health,

*  Relationships (both personal and professional),

*  Finance &

 *  Occupation. 

The Health Bloke believes that by acknowledging and then creating strategies which can be implemented into your lifestyle will have a direct impact on the way you look, feel and function. 

So if you know anyone that is struggling with the concept of 'work life balance', health, happiness or is stressed and/or generally has a poor self esteem then this is a must share episode.

Consistency of doing 'something' is good for the inner-being, Tristan Miller. 

This is a fascinating podcast with Tristan Miller who was suppressing his emotions with his alcohol consumption after going through a divorce and losing his job.   He had two option, to either make good choices or bad choices and good choices it was, running soon became his medicine.   The more he ran the better he started to feel about himself.

What started out as a casual run on a Saturday morning lead to fun runs, fun runs lead to ½ marathons, ½ marathons lead to marathons and the rest is history.  The more he ran, the greater the positive transformation became as he saw himself going from a weekend drunk to a weekend warrior.  It was during this personal development journey that Tristan decided to embarked on running around the world completing 52 marathons in 52 weeks, in 42 countries. 

Throughout this podcast Tristan talks about the positive influence running has had, not only on his mindset, his values and his goals, but also the impact it has had on others.  Inspiring people to just get out there and have a go and accept that failure is just an experience we learn from.

Tristan is now so much more than a weekend warrior.  He is a husband, a father, a runner, a coach, a motivator and an inspiration to many.  So get ready to be inspired, by Tristan, by his story, by his brand and by his passion for having a go.  Lace up your runners, download the podcast and enjoy 'your' journey, as clearly Tristan is now enjoying his own.

Episode 11: RESETTING YOUR BENCHMARKS

What started out as his regular Saturday morning training ride, end up quite differently.  Actually it ended up in tragedy...from a professional athlete 2 hours earlier to being ricocheted into a parked 4WD at 40km/hr, Michael Forbes broke his neck and ended up on a ventilator and getting fed through a nasal gastric tube.  After six days they started reducing his drugs and he became conscious but he had no idea of what had happened.  With a tracheostomy inserted he tried to ask the nurse, 'what happened'...she said "You were a victim of a traffic accident the doctors will be in tomorrow to tell you the worst, don't believe them, believe in miracles".  From that day onwards his life as he knew it had changed forever, but his never give up attitude is an inspiration for all of us.

Since the accident there have been a roller coaster of emotions, both positive and negative including plenty of dark days.  Yet, since the accident he has never looked back and there are many fantastic take home points throughout the podcast about the art of setting gaols, over coming challenges, making sure you celebrate your achievements and be prepared to be patience and persistent.
