On this episode of The Mind Your Body Show, Jacob Andreae and Aaron Motlop discussed Aaron's life story, including his childhood, family life, and football career. Aaron shared his experiences playing various sports, including touch footy, rugby league, rugby union, and AFL, and the pressure he felt being the son of a football legend. He also discussed his football journey, including his decision to stay at Southern Districts and his move to Wanders as a 16-year-old. Aaron shared the lessons he learned about preparation and the importance of training habits and recovery, as well as the setbacks he faced, such as his ACL injury.

Jacob reflected on his time at Palmerston Magpies FC and the improvements he and head coach, Dean Rioli, made to the club. Jacob discussed the impact of his and Dean's departure and their return to Wanderers Eagles FC, where they reunited with Aaron as captain and the disappointment of losing 2 grand finals in a row and the lessons they learned from it. Jacob and Aaron ended by discussing the importance of a captain's knock (which Jacob believes Aaron has done better than anyone else in the NTFL) and the role it plays in a team's success. Additionally, Aaron talked about his transition to coaching and his goal for the upcoming NTFL season with Wanderers, which is to improve the team's performance from last year.

Fleur Elizabeth is a coach specialising in mastering your relationship with food and alcohol since 2017, which she believes is inseparable from the success or failure of your human existence. Her approach is to

(1) address a problem or challenging behaviour.

(2) Help you identify the costs of that behaviour to your life.

(3) Provide psycho-education regarding the issue.

(4) Offer a strategy to manage the problem, evoke positive change, and motivate you to maintain it.

Her desire now is to help others that have suffered in silence, like she did, with an ambition to normalise the discussion of abuse and help other women feel connected and have a happier, more confident, and somewhat wiser human experience.  

Fleur Elizabeth's vast qualifications span from a Master's in Food and Wine Branding and Management, Nutritional Health Coaching Diploma to several distinguished qualifications in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), specialising depression and anxiety, Motivational Interviewing (specialising in alcoholism and addiction) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) specialising in mindfulness, acceptance and change skills.  

Transforming her career from a Telecommunications sales and marketing leader in 2012, Fleur Elizabeth made her dream a reality. She opened her award-winning restaurant in Singapore, creating food adored by her customers. After a painful and devastating closure, her self-professed "Life-MBA", another door opened into the complex world of food chemicals, creating concepts for leading global food brands. Witnessing the behind-the-scenes of what goes into our food today and linking the correlation with our global health crisis inspired her to retrain and move into nutritional health coaching—determined to educate and motivate people to make healthier choices with their food.  

Having experienced ongoing mental abuse, being built up and torn down within her narcissistic family of origin, and suffering several accounts of horrifying sexual abuse in her childhood by people she knew and relied on. After being raped when she was 15, Fleur Elizabeth stopped eating, developing bulimia, a crude and complicated food disorder. Never allowed to discuss or disclose, the social standing family preferred to keep up appearances rather than admit to the toxic shame it coveted. As she got older, she used alcohol to numb her trauma and hid behind a "false self" to escape her pain, creating a path of destruction and self-loathing behaviour. A profoundly complex past and a stimulus to action for the forthcoming years of study and 300+ hours of psychology research. And together with her own coach/therapist pushing through a pretty spectacular personal transformation, Fleur Elizabeth will proudly tell you that she is in love with the woman she is today and knows this is her life's work!  

Fleur Elizabeth is a Keynote Speaker and published Author of "HIP - 7 Ways to transform recovery", "HIP - Recovery Mindfulness Journal", "The Hubby Diary", and "The Compassion Project" (to be published Q4 2023)
