  • 015: From 'I hate my thighs' to am empowering Fitness & Life coach w/ Ophie Ho

    After achieving the dream body to compete in a body building competition, Ophie developed a seriously bad relationship with food. Whilst still on a high from accomplishing months of training, strict dieting & finally competing... this was not the moment she imagined to be breaking down over myfitnesspal showing her macros to be over for the airplane food. 

    In this episode fitness & life coach Ophie delves into her struggles with body image and how she's strengthening her mindset around loving her body, how she went against convention to start her own fitness coaching business & why she believes you don't need to quit your 9 to 5 to start your own business.

  • 013: Learning to live with Depression, Social Anxiety & Body Image w/ Sandy Li Cofounder of PUSHAS
    This week's conversation is with Sandy Li cofounder of Pushas. She is an extremely inspiring woman and I'm so grateful for this conversation because in this episode she was so open about her struggles with depression, bullying, body image & social anxiety. At first glance, I would've never expected someone as outgoing, friendly and social as herself would be struggling with depression but as I dug deeper in our conversation I realised she looks at the world and people through a profound lens of kindness.
