#75: With Hannah Mouncey - on fighting for acceptance as a trans athlete

I spoke with Hannah Mouncey, a trans handball and Australian football player who has played for both the men's and women's teams. Hannah played for the men's football team for four years, competing at the 2013 world championships and narrowly missing out on qualifying for the 2016 Olympics. In 2018, she was named Victorian LGBT Sportsperson of the Year. There are not many athletes out there able to give insight into playing for the men's and women's teams, so it was really interesting to sit down with Hannah (over the internet) and talk about that experience. You can find Hannah on Twitter: @HannahMouncey Or: ashwoodsupport.com.au Don't forget to subscribe/follow for more episodes.

#75: With Abbie Stasior - on the neuroscience of habits and manifesting your dreams

Abbie Stasior is a health and life coach from the states, and is currently a nutrition and exercise physiology grad student at the University of Columbia. She runs the coaching company Be About Being Better. In the podcast I misspoke and said her postgrad was in neuroscience, but that was her undergrad. In this episode, we cover how our brains work when it comes to building and breaking habits. Abbie was able to call on evidence to explain our brains, even sharing when the best time of day to train would be in terms of productivity and learning. Abbie was a great guest and I think you'll enjoy this episode! She recommended I try TikTok, so I did.

#74: with Kelly Terranova - on living with with grief and how to live a full life

Kelly Terranova is the small business owner behind The Bee's Knees Journal. Kelly has lots of experience of living through adversity, plus also thriving in adversity. Her mum was diagnosed with the incurable and fatal disease Huntington's Disease–and Kelly also faced 13 years of not knowing whether or not she had inherited the disease (a 50/50 chance), which was luckily negative. Kelly has found humour and gratitude to be integral tools to thriving over the years and through adversity. In her experience, she has found the deeper the tragedy the darker the humour and the richer the gratitude. All of this experience inspired the creation of The Bee's Knees Journal. thebeesknees.co | @kellyterranova_ Find me on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook @superpennie My ebook Run Strong Foundations: amzn.to/2NqJbRH

#70: With Toral Shah on breast cancer, inclusive health care and racism

I spoke with nutritional scientist and food and health writer Toral Shah, who runs the urban kitchen (@theurbankitchen), about nutrition for cancer prevention and recovery, inclusive health campaigns, how to make vegetables delicious and how fitness is political. Toral originally went to medical school. The goal was to become an oncologist, but when her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, she realised that wasn’t the career for her. She completed a degree in cell biology, specialising in cancer and worked in research, before doing a masters in nutritional medicine at the university of surrey. Toral is currently putting together a PhD proposal looking at the impact of stress, diet and lifestyle on oestrogen dependent breast cancer. In this episode we cover: Toral personal breast cancer story What to look out for when checking your own breasts How nutrition can help with prevention/recovery (don't stop taking your meds) How health campaigns and health care need to be more inclusive Racism in the health & fitness spheres How to make vegetables taste good Find Toral: linktr.ee/theurbankitchen | theurbankitchen.co.uk Find me: Instagram, Facebook, Twitter @superpennie Show notes: pennievarvarides.com

#69: With Greg Nuckols - on protein timing, beer and the british empire

Part 2 In this episode, I speak with Greg Nuckols, who is an exercise science writer, powerlifter and coach. Greg is one of the smartest guys in strength sports and I've been learning from him via Stronger by Science and MASS for years. If you haven't listened to part 1, do that first. I split the interview into two parts as it was almost two hours long and I thought I'd give you a break. In this episode, we discuss the importance of protein timing, protein and carb intake on muscle building and the role of beer in the dawn of civilisation. This is a really fun episode, and Greg and I cover a really random range of topics - I'm sure you can see how this ended up being 2 hours long!
