The Wellness Puzzle Podcast Andrew Jobling, Heather Rendulic

In episode 217, I speak with dietician, nutritionist, consultant, presenter, and media personality, Jemma O'Hanlon. It was natural for Jemma to fall into the wellness world. She truly believes that if we embrace food with gratitude, enjoy our meals mindfully and maintain an active lifestyle, we will be a lot healthier and happier. For over a decade, she has worked in the media to bust nutrition myths and comment on topical nutrition matters, from the latest fad diet, to research breakthroughs and the big issues affecting the health of Australians. We talk with passion about the negative influence of media, fast food sponsorship of sporting associations, and how we can opt in to health despite the forces working against us. This is a powerful and essential conversation, not to be missed.

In episode 216, I speak with MD Doctor, PhD, Speaker and author, Dr Cindy Starke. Yes, she is a doctor, doctor! She will tell you that she did that in her headlong pursuit to achieve, to be the best, to be admired and accepted. She now admits it was a crazy aspiration, and not needed for her to love herself. From a challenging upbringing, where she experienced poverty, drugs, alcoholism, and sexual abuse, she has transformed her life. She now helps people step out of their comfort zones and reinvent themselves while stepping into the second half of their lives, feeling energized, empowered and awakened to their long lost passions and dreams, so that they can unleash their potential and find true joy. This is a wonderful conversation, not to be missed.

In episode 215, I speak with recovered sex addict, Logan Hufford. Logan is no longer in bondage to sexual addiction. Being able to say those words is the 2nd biggest blessing in his life, after salvation through Jesus Christ. He spent years actively destroying his marriage, his life, and the lives of many others. He was an addicted to pornography, affairs, and much more. In 2016, God began to change all that. His life & marriage is now something he literally could not have fathomed, 8 years ago. He sincerely believes his mission on this earth is to share with others, how that happened. Because it wasn’t easy, it wasn’t quick, and he didn’t do it on my own. This is a powerful conversation, everyone needs to hear.

In episode 215, I speak with therapist, coach, speaker and author, Dr Heather Browne. Heather helps people recognize the power of communication. It is one of our most important skills that we have, and yet we don’t consider our understanding, approach, belief, and therefore, miss our possibilities. Living with a paranoid schizophrenic mother gave Dr. Heather a unique and powerful awareness that no one has the same reality, though we believe we do. Utilizing this revolutionary awareness has allowed her to transform communication within self and within all other types of relationship. By focussing on what she has, and can do, right now, she has transformed her life. This is the hidden key to acceptance, and it is her mission to share. Enjoy this stupendous conversation.

In episode 214, I speak with author, meditation teacher and yoga instructor, Ann Swanson. From Virginia, USA, Ann decided to go on a holiday to Hawaii and never returned. For good reason. It was a place of calm away from the stress of mainland USA. It's where she truly learned to become peaceful and heal her pain. It's where she met her husband, and it is the best place for her to write, to practice, and to teach. She beautifully simplifies meditation as she just encourages people to take powerful pauses, and simply meditate while they wait. This is an awesome conversation, not to be missed.

In episode 213, I speak with fitness coach, personal trainer and podcaster, Martin Silva. From Cardiff in Wales, now Aussie, who is making a massive difference in people's lives. A successful model and body builder, Martin found himself with a very unhealthy relationship with food. As he transformed his own wellbeing, he learned the secrets to making the basic things we need to do to be healthy and happy, that most don't enjoy, as sexy. Enjoy this convesration to find out how to bring sexy back.
