EP 7.5: Men's Health Week

Men's Health Week is an annual event in mid-June that presents a platform to recognise and discuss key issues relating to the outcomes of males and their health.
We saw this as a timely opportunity to discuss our experiences and learnings around this topic.
No planning. No structure. No preparation. Just hit record and get talking.
The general takeaway from this conversation was the importance of transforming physical and mental health from the elephant in the room to something that is comfortable to discuss and address.
We hope that you can find this a valuable and relatable listen.

EP 9: Georgia Miller

On this episode, we welcome an athlete who needs little introduction, professional IronWoman, Georgia Miller.
Georgia has done it all in the iron racing world, having ticked off wins in the Coolangatta Gold, Nutri Grain Series and World Championships.
Perhaps her most extraordinary achievement however, came in April this year at the Australian Surf Lifesaving Championships, where she took home gold in each of the nine events she competed in.
Now these aren’t just punters she’s competing against. These are some of the fittest, toughest female athletes in the world, yet she’s still dominating and remains at the top of her game.
Despite the extensive resume, we all came away from this chat thinking that Georgia Miller is a better person than she is athlete.

We discuss all aspects of her career, including her ability to find balance away from professional life, the brutality of the Coolie Gold, her work with the Manly Sea Eagles, her studies in nursing, and heaps more.

This was such a good chat and we can’t thank Georgia enough for being so generous with her time.
