Podcasts

Unna Goldsworthy is an Exercise Physiologist, Educator and friend, who has some weird special powers and an intuitive sense that I’ve only encountered a few times in my life. I love her mix of science, compassion, woo-woo and humour and the way she treats the whole person, not just the body. This was an interesting chat about neuroplasticity, brain training, the physiology of stress, solving problems, understanding the language of our body, healing the body vs. masking symptoms, why you should talk to yourself out loud, spontaneous healing and lots more.

Secret Women’s Business - The You Podcast by Craig Harper
I’ll be honest, the ‘business’ wasn’t really so secretive but it was definitely an interesting conversation focused on understanding and navigating the female experience (pre-pubescent through to post-menopausal) from a metabolic, hormonal, nutritional, recovery, energy management, exercise, sporting, performance and general health perspective. If you’re a dude, this is probably not (so much) for you, but feel free to listen and learn something. I did.
