    You hope that throughout life you remain healthy from the inside out. And to achieve that you have to eat well, Right? But what does well mean? And how can we know what's right for us?

    Ep#21 Tom Fox | Nutritional Wellbeing

    There is absolutely no doubt that todays guest TOM FOX will give you a simplified and certainly practical education around NUTRITION, MENTAL WELLBEING and overall HEALTH. If your struggling to wake up in the morning, losing weight from “fad” diets or your sex drive is through the floor then don’t go anywhere. Tom’s abundance of knowledge and experience around the human body and how to fuel, train and live made for an incredible conversation on this week's podcast. Tom so clearly explains his upbringing and progression into the professional sports nutrition space by talking to me about his challenges and certainly his passion as to why he chose to continue on this path of professional wellness. Not having an atypical dream but having a passionate approach has allowed him to develop the most effective way for individuals to improve their life whether it be through physical movement, nutrition or business. As a personal trainer and certified sports nutritionist, our discussions stem deep into energy availability on a clinical level and on a practical level as well. Diving deep into the conversation around sleep and the alarming health implications from not committing to or having enough quality sleep, right the way to answering how we can make the most sensible approach to improving our health. Tom also answered a lot of questions around fueling for endurance sports such as  pre-training, post training, carb loading and all things nutrition around that. This conversation has certainly inspired me to make some adjustments to my routines and nutrition and I’m sure you will have the same results after listening as well.

    Ep#20 Annette Swann - Burnt Face Bravery

    ;Burnt face AUTHOR ANNETTE SWANN shares her story about being “scarred for life” and how the words “I love you for you” really changed her perspective and appreciation for life and her reality. It almost seems crazy that at age 9 someone's life can be so dramatically affected by a series of unfortunate events. However,  that's exactly what happened when Annetter suffered third degree burns to the top half of her body at a christmas party in 1974. Explaining the horrific scenes that so vividly scared her and her family until she was finally able to give forgiveness through a poem and find closure through her book. Using what literally scared her for life as the catalyst to her success, Annette is now the CEO of not-for-profit organisation TUFMINDS. A certified life rescue and resilience coaching platform medically designed and clinically studied to change the way we think and to alter the way we feel when faced with stress and crisis to become the best version of yourself. With an improved mental resilience score of 15-35% you can see why Annette is so passionate about getting this powerful suicided prevention tool into the hands of millions through their website, training and mobile app. If it's stress, crisis, negative thinking or life rescue you need help with then listening to this episode and downloading the TUFMINDs app is the perfect first step to move the needle in a positive way.

    Ep#19 Jaxon Tippet - Lifestyle Wellness

    JAXON TIPPET joins me, Blake, to share his personal stories about being a Fitness Model, Podcast Host, Online Coach, Social Influencer and most importantly a Human Being. Raised in the Melbourne countryside, Jaxon was introduced to a strict but happy lifestyle with both parents prioritising health and wellness over the stereotypical ways of living. It wasn’t until later in high school years where getting into the gym scene to originally impress the girls that Jaxon recognised his addiction for looking and feeling the best he could. With such a strong drive to look and perform his best; steroids became a part of this process and inevitably led to a near jail time sentence, loss of his girlfriend, friends and license before Jaxon made a massive shift in his life. Realising that he doesn't have to do or be the person that social media wants or expects but rather to be his true organic self has opened the doorway to a more prosperous life of HEALTH and WELLNESS. This is a great conversation where two friends discuss each other's perspective on a range of topics from Nutrition to goals, to sleep and many more in the middle.

    Ep#18 Benita Willis - Positive Finish Lines

    It takes more than talent to become a 4 time OLYMPIAN and Australia’s GREATEST long distance runner; it takes consistency, balance, discipline, structure and determination. It also takes a special person to harness that knowledge and direct it to help many more individuals cross their finish lines as well. Benita Willis tells an incredible story of becoming a professional track athlete in Australia, her humble upbringing in Mackay of outdoor activities, no pressure and no shoes in school. Although hockey was her preferred sport, where she went on to represent Australia in the under 18s and 21s side as a 17 year old, Benita made her first olympic appearance in the 5000m race at Sydney in 2000 - the same year the Hockeyroos won gold. Traveling the world racing and training consumed her life for the following 12 years, where she achieved things no Australian has ever done before or since . Describing the hardest moment of that journey being 2008 when competing in New York her dad passed away and not long after went through a marriage separation, saying “I had to deal with my emotions first, because I wasn't enjoying racing anymore and so I was running s****y.” Since retiring in 2012, Benita has been on a journey to define her passion as a human not just as an athlete. Settling down in Gold Coast Australia with her partner Anthony and pet dog Hunter, Bentia has directed her energy into coaching. Helping individuals get through hard times both emotionally and physically with her coaching business Lace Up Running. Sharing her worldly experience that’s preparing you for an enhanced life where you can cross more than just your running finish line.

    Siennah Pirona - Action Creates Action

    Siennah Pirona is WORLD CLASS in everything she does; whether it was on the elite stage of the Federation of International Sports, Aerobics and Fitness or now with her online or personal coaching she brings an energy and experience that far exceeds her years. One thing that has remained consistent in Siennah’s life is her ability to stay focused on her goals, infact her intuition and insight into goal setting and daily objectives is ultimately what sets her apart from the crowd. At only age 20, she has been able to capitalize on her time on earth with 4 world championships golds, a wellness training platform and already one year into her nutrition and dietetics degree. Life certainly hasn’t always been easy though, in fact Siennah lost her dad to suicide when she was just 11 years old and as an unconcious result put this internal pressure on herself to fill that void with “success” in her sport. She speaks about obsessing over the little things; becoming an over critical perfectionist throughout her aerobic career which potentially led to an over training injury and a stress fracture in her lumber spin at age 17 before she took stock on what she had lived through, achieved, and lost up until that point. Defining her passion to be kinder to herself and now teaching others the importance of having self-love as well. Siennah thinks that too many of us unfortunately put too many boundaries on our potential, and she says “when we understand where we ARE, we can set where we want to BE and start tackling our doubts and beliefs, because progress is so much better than PERFECT”.

    Jamie Usher | The Mind Tradie

    Close your eyes, cover them with a cloth and imagine living the rest of your life in darkness. How would you feel? How would you do it? How would the relationship with yourself be? Well that thought is exactly what JAMIE USHER asked himself before he became “THE MIND TRADIE”. Jamie recalls his journey to losing 90% of his vision at age 26 as the best thing that could have happened to him. He said “it was a sign from the universe that I needed to make a massive change in my life, I needed to change how I identified to myself because that was all I was about to see.” Jamie hasn’t once let his disability hold him back from achieving his goals, entering his honours year in Physcology, forming and building an online coaching platform and becoming a husband and a father are just a small number of successes that he’s had over the last 11 years. This episode is filled with a tremendous amount of practical suggestions on how Jamie was able to build his mental fitness, improve his perspective on life and use his trumers as fuel to become the best version of himself. He describes it as a tough journey with a lot of challenges but he also wouldn't change it for anything. You can start your mental fitness journey here. You can find Jamie Usher here.

    Naomi McCallum | Chronic Pain & Depression

    Like Mental Illness, CHRONIC PAIN can be a disease that takes control of your life where it leaves you feeling helpless, depressed, physically and mentally exhausted. This week's guest NAOMI McCALLUM so elegantly talks us through her life leading up too and through Chronic pain and depression. Naomi’s first exposure to depression was when she was 13yrs old when her Aunty said “ you now have to look after your Mum '' because she didn’t have the strength to do it herself; describing this experience as one of the most life altering moments she's experienced. It gives you an insight into what life from there was like for Naomi, as she had stress after stress, injury after injury, illness after illness until it became all too consuming and her body began to break down. Chronic pain is one of the world's silent killers and statistics indicate that 30-40% of people that are diagnosed with mental illness are also presenting for chronic pain, yet there isn’t much if any social exposure to this incredibly scary phenomenon. This stat makes practical sense due to the mind's inability to differentiate physical pain and emotional pain at any time in our life. Naomi has channelled her trauma into action, changing her neural pathways as she strives to give people the opportunity to experience life. Through her efforts with mental health work, personal coaching and rehabilitation, disability work and her future studies as a Physiotherapist she is beyond thrilled to say she is on the other side of her struggles because of the WORK she has put into herself.
