Life With Danni Duncan

Life won’t wait - we get one shot - and you are in the driver's seat.  You can Do Hard Things.  I’m Danni Duncan…featured fitness and nutrition coach, author, speaker and mum of 4 amazing kiddies (including twins). Online I’ve shared it all, my pregnancy journeys, miscarriages, why you SHOULDN’T be eating cereal for breakfast, how to make the perfect sourdough and helping you to see that YOU can do hard things.  The things I’ve said online have often got me into a bit of trouble, and its because I’m not afraid to call people out on their shit … I’m not afraid to discuss taboo topics and I don’t believe that any of us need to live an average life where we do what society is telling us is ‘normal’ … instead its our job to question “Why is that normal?” And is that what we want for our own life?  This podcast is going to be a space where I chat to experts (and share my own thoughts) on WHY we aren’t living our full potential.  Where you can get the facts that will help you to get your happiness, motivation and confidence back.  Taking the first steps can be hard, but I’m here to help you make it a little easier to face your fears and live your best life - every, single, day.  I will make you feel uncomfortable, I will make you think differently but you may just wanna hear it.   If you want to make this year the year that you do something for yourself, you’re in the right space.

    You Don't Have Time? Mythbusting the Excuses I Hear Every Single Day

    I asked you what your biggest excuses were and honestly, you delivered. So today I'm mythbusting them, one by one, with so much love and zero shame. I don't have time. I'm too tired. I'll start Monday. I can't afford it. I don't know where to start. I've already ruined the day so what's the point. I'm not fit enough to exercise. Sound familiar? I've said every single one of these to myself at some point too. We dig into why time was never actually the problem, why movement creates energy instead of using it up, and why Monday isn't the magic reset day you think it is. I also share the story of the very first time I tried to run 5km and how far I actually got before I wanted to quit. Plus, I'm letting you in on something I've been sitting on. From the 12th of August (my birthday), you can join the wait list for something brand new I'm launching on the 1st of September. Four weeks, weekly coaching calls, a WhatsApp group and app access. Early bird access opens the 11th of August. Find me on Instagram @danni.duncan_ or join the wait list here. If you need a push to take control of your health - download my app FIT by Danni Duncan or sign up for coaching. I also share all of my health and fitness tips over on IG @danni.duncan_ so if you want more, make sure you join me over there. Or follow the podcast over @lifewithdanniduncan.

    Why Every Diet You've Tried Has Failed & How to Fix It For Good

    5 Habits That Will Change Your Life: My Honest Health & Fitness Philosophy Everyone's showing you the before and after photo. The six pack. The number on the scales. But nobody shows you the part where you actually like who you are. In this episode I'm sharing the philosophy behind everything I do and teach. Why most diets fail, why calories in calories out isn't the whole story, and the five habit framework I use with every single woman I coach. This isn't about an eight week challenge or a meal plan you white knuckle your way through. This is about building a life where being healthy isn't something you do. It's just who you are. Plus I share the story of my client Annalise who is down 18kg but more importantly has completely changed her life in ways no before and after photo could ever show. If you are done with the bandwagon, done with starting again every Monday, and ready to actually fix this for good, this one is for you.

    The GP Who Survived Cancer & Now Prescribes Food as Medicine with Dr Michaela Sorensen

    Dr Michaela Sorensen is a GP, a Jodi Lee Foundation ambassador, and a cancer survivor. She's been on both sides of a diagnosis and it changed everything about how she practises medicine. At 34, with a two-month-old baby at home, a routine dentist appointment revealed a rare stage four cancer on the roof of her mouth. A month in hospital, four 12-hour surgeries, and an NG tube later, she came out the other side with a completely different perspective on health. In this episode we talked about food as medicine, preventative health, the longevity secrets hiding in blue zones, and why women especially are terrible at advocating for themselves even when they know something is wrong. If you want to learn more about the power of food as medicine and take your health more seriously, this episode is for you. You can find Michaela on Instagram at @dr.michaelasorensen or visit www.elmehealth.com Learn more about the Jodi Lee Foundation at www.jodileefoundation.org.au If you need a push to take control of your health - download my app FIT by Danni Duncan at fitbythefigure.com or sign up for coaching at danniduncan.com.au/the-vitality-project-program/ I also share all of my health and fitness tips over on IG @danni.duncan_ so if you want more, make sure you join me over there.

    We Ran a Marathon Together. Here's the Honest Debrief.

    Chris is not a runner. But last weekend he ran 42.195 kilometres anyway.This is our honest debrief of the Gold Coast Marathon. What went well, what fell apart, and what we'd do differently before the New York Marathon in 15 weeks.We talk about how we made marathon training work around four kids, full time work, and Chris still playing football through the entire prep. Zone 2 training, recovery, why mobility matters more than you think, and the moment around 36 kilometres where I started questioning everything.We also answer some of your juicy questions: how we manage mornings with four kids, switching off from work when you both work from home, and the PCOS and Ozempic conversation that I could honestly do a whole episode on.This one's real, honest, and a little chaotic. Just like us.We're also fundraising for bowel cancer awareness ahead of New York. We have a trivia night on the 5th of September in Melbourne and the link will be live next week. Every dollar counts.Donate to the Jodi Lee Foundation and support our NY marathon fundraiser here: https://fundraise.jodileefoundation.org.au/fundraisers/dannichrisduncan/new-york-marathon-2026-x-danni-duncanIf you need a push to take control of your health - download my app FIT by Danni Duncan: https://fitbythefigure.com/ or sign up for coaching: https://danniduncan.com.au/the-vitality-project-program/I also share all of my health and fitness tips over on IG @danni.duncan_ so if you want more, make sure you join me over there.

    Natural Botox Alternative That Also Heals Your Nervous System

    Olga Newman is the creator of the Face Up method and she'll take five years off your face in 30 minutes. But that's not why I wanted to have her on the podcast. I'd just had my first treatment with Olga when we recorded this, and what started as a conversation about aesthetics went so much deeper than I expected. We talked about why stress and jaw tension show up on your face faster than any cream or filler can fix, why Botox doesn't actually solve the problem (and where that tension goes instead), and why the real anti-aging secret has nothing to do with needles or a 12-step skincare routine. This one changed how I think about aging, Botox, and what it actually means to look after yourself. If you want to find Olga or try the Face Up method yourself, you can find her on Instagram at @olga_faceup or visit her website at faceup.pro for online classes and techniques you can do at home.

    The most honest conversation you’re going to hear about weight loss drugs (ft Bailey Haslam)

    I want to have a super honest conversation about weight loss injections because it is getting out of control. We have mums doing shady black market deals on Facebook, trying to do EVERYTHING but eat better and exercise. I’m tired of it but not only that - I’m scared of what our future is going to look like. And especially, what that future is going to look like for our kids. I brought fitness coach Bailey Haslam (@baileyhaslam_) on the show with me to talk about it, and to find out what she’s been seeing in her own coaching circles (it shocked me).

    “I remember looking at Chris and going, I’ve got my thing…” What Bowel Cancer Taught Me About Happiness

    It is still Bowel Cancer Awareness Month and I wanted to take this opportunity to step behind the mic for a raw, solo check-in 12 months after my diagnosis and surgery. I’m not going to lie, I get really emotional in this one. It is wild how fast a year goes by, but looking back, cancer completely shattered and rebuilt the way I look at life. I am opening up about things I usually keep close to my chest, like navigating a low bank account while running a business, learning to love a body I spent my whole life hating, and why facing your own mortality makes everyday stresses just melt away. I also give an honest update on my latest PET scan, some unexpected scan-xiety, and why I am officially banning the word anti-aging from my vocabulary. Life is an absolute privilege. So let me ask you: Are you actually living yours? Learn more about the Jodi Lee Foundation at www.jodileefoundation.org.au If you’re over 45, you can grab a free bowel cancer screening kit here. If you're under 45 and you really want to get yourself checked, the Jodi Lee Foundation is selling them here.

    From Mild Symptoms to a Stage 4 Bowel Cancer Diagnosis: Jodi Lee’s Story with Nick Lee

    Nick started the Jodi Lee Foundation after losing his wife Jodi to bowel cancer when she was just 41. She had mild symptoms so went to a GP, and the following night she was being flown to Bangkok for emergency surgery. Nick was then told in the waiting room that Jodi had Stage 4 Bowel Cancer and had 2 years to live. Nick has since gone on to create the Jodi Lee Foundation - dedicating his life to raising awareness around bowel cancer and helping Australians to act before it gets too late. I wanted to chat with Nick to hear what it was like for him, from the moment Jodi was diagnosed, how they broke the news to his 2 kids, and the impact Jodi’s legacy has had on bowel cancer awareness.
