Speaker 1: Hi, and welcome back to Bounce Forward with me, Tip Paul.
Speaker 1: I'd like to acknowledge the traditional custodians with the land
Speaker 1: in which I'm recording this podcast. The wereundru people of
Speaker 1: the cooler Nation. I pay my respects for elders past
Speaker 1: and present.
Speaker 2: Now have a little announcement.
Speaker 1: We're going to be taking a break, and in this
Speaker 1: EPP I'm going to reflect on Bounce Forward and all
Speaker 1: the wonderful.
Speaker 2: Episodes that we've had up until this day.
Speaker 1: So the show will be taking a break for the
Speaker 1: first half of next year. Well this year, we're in
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five already, I can't believe it. We'll be
Speaker 1: looking to releasing new content the second half of twenty
Speaker 1: twenty five, so don't worry.
Speaker 2: I'm working really hard on that. Now.
Speaker 1: I have some exciting things launching with my TXO app
Speaker 1: and ED and I are working on a very secret
Speaker 1: project which you will see very soon. I'm very excited
Speaker 1: about this, so I will be around and you will
Speaker 1: be able to see.
Speaker 2: What I'm up to and what I'm doing. But I
Speaker 2: wanted to talk.
Speaker 1: About why I started the Bounce Forward podcast in the
Speaker 1: first place, and why it is so important to me.
Speaker 1: I really wanted to break down the over complicated world
Speaker 1: of health and fitness for you and put it into easy, digestible,
Speaker 1: bite sized pieces that really helped to improve your life.
Speaker 1: And I wanted to debunk stupid myths and bust TikTok
Speaker 1: trends and talk to you about gimmicks, and I didn't
Speaker 1: want you to waste your money on stuff. And I
Speaker 1: really wanted to be honest and authentic with you and
Speaker 1: just speak, you know, girl to girl about what is
Speaker 1: real in the health and wellness industry. I really hope
Speaker 1: that you felt empowered and competent on your health and
Speaker 1: fitness journey because.
Speaker 2: Of this podcast.
Speaker 1: And looking back, you know, if you asked me what
Speaker 1: is my favorite topic or episode, I'd have to say
Speaker 1: it was speaking to Kate Langbrook because she really helped
Speaker 1: me to step into my own power and she encourages
Speaker 1: people to do that every single day, which is just
Speaker 1: so amazing. She's a confident mom, a mom that I
Speaker 1: look up to with all of her kids, and I
Speaker 1: just think, to myself, how does she do it?
Speaker 2: How does she juggle?
Speaker 1: She seems to do it so well, And I just
Speaker 1: really loved recording that episode and I also really love
Speaker 1: speaking to all of the experts I've had on Bounce Forward,
Speaker 1: such as doctor Stacy Simms, who specializes in women's health
Speaker 1: and fitness and is doing a great job in spreading
Speaker 1: the world that you know, women are not small men
Speaker 1: and shouldn't train like small men, and the importance of
Speaker 1: lifting heavy shit in your forties, and that you know
Speaker 1: we aren't men, don't train like a man, look at
Speaker 1: women's studies and you know, train like a woman. And
Speaker 1: it was just such an important message. So I've really
Speaker 1: a big thank you to all the guests that I've
Speaker 1: had on Bounce Forward, and a big thank you to
Speaker 1: all of the experts as well. Now I myself have
Speaker 1: learned a lot from this podcast, the power of community.
Speaker 2: Thank you.
Speaker 1: Thank you to all of you who's submitted amazing topics
Speaker 1: and questions and queries and were so honest with your
Speaker 1: stories and your thoughts, whether it was emotional eating or
Speaker 1: you know, lack of motivation. These are private thoughts that
Speaker 1: you have or you know that you've shared with me
Speaker 1: and shared with all of us that we could really
Speaker 1: dig deep into to get to somewhere where we could
Speaker 1: move forward and feel really empowered so thank you.
Speaker 2: And I started this podcast super anxious. I did.
Speaker 1: I am not a podcaster, I'm a personal trainer, and
Speaker 1: so I was nervous. And throughout the journey, I've learned
Speaker 1: to really trust myself, to trust my twenty years of experience,
Speaker 1: and to gain a bit of confidence.
Speaker 2: So thank you for that.
Speaker 1: I really was lacking in confidence when I started this podcast,
Speaker 1: and now I feel like I could tackle any question
Speaker 1: that you threw in my way.
Speaker 2: So thank you to the listeners. If I have a.
Speaker 1: Message for all of you, I guess it would be
Speaker 1: to trust the process, that something comes from something, but
Speaker 1: nothing comes from nothing, and to ditch the all or
Speaker 1: nothing attitude. You know, two weeks you'll feel it, four
Speaker 1: weeks you'll start seeing it. So go forth and seek
Speaker 1: experts and trainers and coaches that you trust. Don't settle for,
Speaker 1: you know, misinformation from an unqualified Instagram influencer. Okay, be
Speaker 1: savvy with your health. Protect it. It's the most important thing.
Speaker 1: And when it gets tough, you've got to choose your
Speaker 1: hard So it's hard to keep going, it's hard to
Speaker 1: keep showing up every day, but it's also really hard
Speaker 1: to stick in your comfort zone with no results, So
Speaker 1: choose your hard. You've got this, and that's my message
Speaker 1: to all the listeners out there.
Speaker 2: You've got this.
Speaker 1: You do have this, Okay, you can get those results,
Speaker 1: and it's really easy. This podcast. You can search through topics.
Speaker 1: You can find what you need. If you need a
Speaker 1: moment of motivation, or if you want to know how
Speaker 1: to plan your meal, or if you want to know
Speaker 1: about macros, or you know how to weigh yourself appropriately
Speaker 1: or measure yourself or VO two max or any of
Speaker 1: the things that we've spoken about on this podcast, then
Speaker 1: you can search through it. You can find the episode,
Speaker 1: you can have a listen and hopefully find a little friend.
Speaker 2: I feel little emotional.
Speaker 1: We're just taking a break, but I do feel a
Speaker 1: little emotional because you have trusted me with your health
Speaker 1: and fitness, and I do get emotional. I get emotional
Speaker 1: with anyone who trusts me with their health and fitness.
Speaker 1: I always sign off my podcast with happy days. It's
Speaker 1: something my grandfather used to say to me whenever he
Speaker 1: kissed me goodbye or hung up the phone.
Speaker 2: Happy days.
Speaker 1: And it's so important for us to focus on the glimmers,
Speaker 1: not the triggers in life. He lived till he was
Speaker 1: nearly ninety eight years old. Happy days, Grandpa. And it
Speaker 1: just taught me to always look for the positives in everything.
Speaker 1: And I hope this little podcast has been a positive
Speaker 1: corner of the Internet for you. So for the last
Speaker 1: time this season, I'm going to say happy days and
Speaker 1: thank you so much for listening.
