Team! Welcome back to the podcast.

Today we will be talking winter and wellness with a focus on nutrition; basically deconstructing 'Hands, Face, Space' and talking turmeric, tongues and tummies, once again, joined by coach Viki!  

We'll figure out what we should be throwing in our slow cookers, understand the foods that will bullet-proof our immune system, figure what herbs and spices offer beyond their taste and top it all off with lots of questionable analogies from James. Strap in.

Take care, look after each other, stay well and have a lovely day!

Hey team! We've missed you! We are back and this time we are joined, once again, by Amy!

Amy is here to talk about her onboarding, sales and marketing role and to answer some of the common questions she gets when meeting new members and when new members are meeting us for the first time! Everyone was new once and likely had many of the same questions so what better way to introduce ourselves and get them answered than here!

What would Amy put in Room 101? How are the different membership tiers structured? What's an 'Intro'? How tasty is a taster? How do I ask a question? Don't worry, the next 20 minutes have you covered!

Thanks as always for coming back!

Team! Welcome back! 

This week Ellie and I are joined by returning guests and fellow members of our coaching team, Ella and Stew! This episode was born through the filter of fun and offers little to learn but hopefully still plenty to enjoy! We are sharing the things that push our buttons enough to consider banishing them deep into the vault of Room 101! Who is Ella's sexy biblical crush? What did Stew think of Dinner? Why is that spaceship full of random people and who wasn't James allowed to talk about? Stay tuned. 

This was so much fun and we hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording! As always, thoughts and feedback are always welcome.

Hey Team! We are back... and we have reinforcements! 

This week we are joined by Emma Clapp, Natasha Feher and Steve Jones; three pieces of the Valesco puzzle, three of our SiD team and three all round awesome people that we are proud to have representing our community! We wanted to share some honest perspectives from real people on what it's like to make the transition from casual 'class athlete' to 'competitive athlete', what challenges some of our members (and coaches!) face and to have a chat about some of the upcoming events over the coming weeks. Super fun.

What does Emma watch on TV? What's Tash's biggest training challenge? How does Steve plan his training week? What is everyone looking forward to this year? Who is SiD and why are the Comp-Team talking so much about him? These are just some of the ground breaking topics we address in todays conversation.

It was super cool to chat to these guys and let them share their views and thoughts with you all and as always, if you want to hear more of something or have any ideas for upcoming episodes, let us know! 

Thanks for coming back! Have a lovely day!

Hey team! Welcome back! This episode we are joined by Leanne - our resident Valesco Yogi! - and we are taking some time to get to know a little more about her and a little more about the thing she is most passionate about!

Yoga is many things to many people and whether you practice for mobility, improved focus, to become stronger or to just be a bit more present, today we are going to dig in to the benefits and gain a little more insight into just how broad 'Yoga' can be.

Is Yin an alcoholic drink? Why does Leanne sound like that? Can Mashed Potato become stronger? What should I do if i'm just not bendy? Don't panic - we have the answers!

Hey Team! Welcome back!

This is the last of our 'Lockdown' Podcasts and is another super informative contribution around a specific area of nutrition from coach Viki! 

Today we learn about what 'Gut Health' really means, what's good for it, what's not so good for it and what else our food can impact that maybe isn't quite so obvious! There is a lot of information to digest today (see what I did there?) so we hope you find it useful!

As always, if there is anything you want to hear discussed or anyone you want to hear from, let us know! Also, if you think you have some value to add then please feel just as comfortable reaching out! We want the right people to help the right people!

Take care, look after each other and have a lovely day!

Hey Team! Welcome back! We hope you guys are all doing really well and looking forward to another 50 minutes of chat. This time out we are going to be talking about the fear of failure, defining success, the subjectivity of pressure and associating self-worth!

Our visiting virtual Sport Psychologist Connor is back with us again to share his thoughts and feelings on the subject and we are excited to have him back. We really enjoy the conversations we have with Connor and his knowledge and perspective are always incredibly valuable so we hope you all enjoy listening!

As always, let us know what you're thinking! Give us a shout on any platform with any thoughts and ideas you have and share this with the next person that asks you what Podcasts you would recommend.
