The MumSafe Pro Podcast

Off the back of Episode 16 with Molly Galbraith Jen wanted to bring you some real life examples of women how have moved from the space of competition and feelings of not enoughness into the space of truly leaning in to collaboration over competition.

First you will meet Sarah Magi of In2life Personal Training in the Ponds area of Sydney and then you will meet Jody Pearce of Body empowerment with Jody based in  Perth WA.

Both Sarah and Jody are MumSafe Trainers and they both share the mission to ensure all women have access to safe and effective exercise at every stage of motherhood.

They are both incredibly open and brave about sharing stories of how they felt and did thing ‘then’ to how they have now moved into a space where they happily and openly collaborate with other MumSafe Trainers, with other exercise professionals, allied health and more.

We hope you love these episodes as much as we do where we speak to the awesome humans that are implementing the ideas, concepts and philosophies that we talk about with other guests. These episodes truly show you that doing things differently can work and will work for you when you choose to lean in.

This included leading the program development for FILEX in its heyday, when the event comprised 120+ presenters delivering 200+ sessions across a 4-day program for 2000 delegates.

Alisha designed and delivered education and summits for global fitness education company Animal Flow, and has consulted on product and brand development, growth and innovation across a number of companies.

Jen wanted to bring Alisha onto the podcast because she knows the value that it brings to the industry when women find their voice to share their mission on a bigger stage and she couldn’t think of anyone better to share this conversation with.

Not only that, but from the first time Jen spoke with and met Alisha she has led by example when it comes to supporting other women and lifting them up.

Through her Academy, she has certified tens of thousands of professionals in over 125 countries, helping them become the go-to coach for women in their gyms and communities. 

Jen first heard Molly speak at The Women's Health and Fitness Summit in Melbourne in 2018 at a time where she was exploring her next steps. During her keynote presentation Molly shared the words "Build a table big enough for everyone" which struck a chord instantly and has helped to shape the way MumSafe has evolved to today.

Jen invited Molly to share a conversation not only because the work that they both do aligns so beautifully but also because Molly's ethos of women supporting women and helping each other to rise is one that needs to be repeated and shared over and over until we truly understand that WE are enough and that there IS enough for every woman to thrive.

In this episode Jen sit's down with MumSafe Trainer and owner of Mum Strong, Sarah Castley who looks after mums of Hobart in Tasmania.

Jen invited Sarah onto the podcast to talk about how becoming an oversubscribed or 'sold out' business   If you haven't listened to Episode 13 with Daniel Priestley on 'How to sell out your mum-focused fitness business' this is a great episode to listen to for further context and information on this topic.

Sarah runs a business in Hobart, TAS called  Mum Strong she believes that returning to exercise following childbirth is so much more than chucking on your sneakers and heading out the door, it needs to be done safely, effectively, and thoughtfully.

Sarah has created a space and community conducive to helping mums improve their mental and physical health and well-being. A place where mums can exercise, form friendships, and feel safe, free of judgement (and have a laugh)!

Sarah’s mission is to help mums to understand the importance of prioritising themselves. To lock in time just for them. Helping them to feel stronger, more confident, and energised to keep up with the daily demands of motherhood (which is never ending)!

I wanted to speak with Sarah because she is living and breathing the oversubscribed philosophy.  After launching one session, that became sold out she held off launching the next one while she grew her status as the go to exercise professional for mums in her area.

Off the back of the success running her Mum Strong program in one gym she recently launched into another facility and has become sold out already and I wanted to share a real life example of how being oversubscribed truly makes doing business easier (and more fun!)

Jen invited Alicia onto the podcast to talk about how being the go-to trainer for mums has made her fitness business easier.  If you haven't listened to Episode 8 with Glen Carlson on 'How being a Key Person of Influence will make your fitness business easier' this is a great episode to listen to for further context and information on this topic.

Alicia founded Feel Good Fitness when her daughter Marlee was just 4months old and she realised the exercise options for Mums in Fielding were limited and for many of them, going to the gym just didn’t work.

She did this not only once, but twice before she learned her lesson and started doing things differently. Jen is now incredibly passionate about helping other exercise professionals to avoid the same mistake and ensure they face their financial situation.  For this reason inviting Mel onto The MumSafe Movement Podcast was a no-brainer.
