So I, um, 16 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,330 S2: I want to where I just like to wear period 17 00:01:02,330 --> 00:01:05,180 S2: undies on the first day. Yeah. With, with, um, so 18 00:01:05,180 --> 00:01:08,569 S2: much information for Monday morning, but I pair them with 19 00:01:08,569 --> 00:01:11,209 S2: a tampon during the day. Overnight. I don't, but just 20 00:01:11,209 --> 00:01:14,270 S2: because other just because I have a very, very heavy 21 00:01:14,270 --> 00:01:18,280 S2: period and I quite like that. I feel very with tights, 22 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:23,080 S2: skirt period layers. Yeah, I just did a skort a skort, yes. 23 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,899 S2: Even better. I've got so many layers going on right now. 24 00:01:25,900 --> 00:01:28,900 S2: So anyway, that's that's also the reason. Quite a practical 25 00:01:28,900 --> 00:01:30,580 S2: outfit as well. We spoke about the. 26 00:01:30,580 --> 00:01:32,890 S1: Skorts the other week in that with your period undies, 27 00:01:32,890 --> 00:01:35,440 S1: if you haven't got seamless period undies, skorts are a 28 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:39,250 S1: great option. Yeah, like there's two layers there, so it's 29 00:01:39,250 --> 00:01:39,640 S1: so good. 30 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,440 S2: I just when you have your period as many layers 31 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,830 S2: as possible is a large vibe. So I just yeah. Yeah. 32 00:01:44,830 --> 00:01:47,830 S2: Feel I feel good. I feel like lots of padding 33 00:01:47,830 --> 00:01:49,030 S2: underneath me. The only thing. 34 00:01:49,030 --> 00:01:51,430 S1: About the layers thing, because I do the exact same thing, 35 00:01:51,430 --> 00:01:54,880 S1: but obviously with your period, you, you tend to visit 36 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,220 S1: the toilet more often in the day and there's so 37 00:01:57,220 --> 00:01:59,530 S1: many layers to take on and off every time, but 38 00:01:59,530 --> 00:02:00,520 S1: it's worth it for. 39 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:01,450 S2: The it's very true. 40 00:02:01,450 --> 00:02:03,460 S1: I have a random thing I wanted to bring up. 41 00:02:03,460 --> 00:02:06,520 S1: It's something that, um, Josh and I have been doing 42 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:07,840 S1: every night before bed. 43 00:02:07,870 --> 00:02:09,850 S2: What sounds. 44 00:02:09,850 --> 00:02:13,150 S1: So sexual? But it's absolutely not. It's very far from it. 45 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,190 S1: We got a Nintendo Switch. 46 00:02:15,490 --> 00:02:18,250 S2: Oh my God, Steph, I saw this on TikTok. I've 47 00:02:18,250 --> 00:02:20,320 S2: been meaning to talk to you about this. I wanted 48 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,170 S2: I just had no words. Like, I'm just not a gamer. 49 00:02:23,169 --> 00:02:25,089 S2: I don't have a gaming body bone. 50 00:02:25,150 --> 00:02:26,560 S1: Did you grow up with anything? 51 00:02:26,770 --> 00:02:29,890 S2: I had a, um, one of those see through purple, 52 00:02:29,889 --> 00:02:31,960 S2: a Game Boy, Game boy, a Game Boy. I had 53 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,490 S2: a Game Boy. I do quite like my Game Boy, 54 00:02:33,669 --> 00:02:36,610 S2: but now games just. It's not. Maybe I should be 55 00:02:36,610 --> 00:02:39,190 S2: open to them, but I'm so fun. Completely closed off 56 00:02:39,190 --> 00:02:41,139 S2: to a Nintendo, so I'm sorry. 57 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,190 S1: Anyway, um. So I really loved Mario Kart, and I 58 00:02:45,220 --> 00:02:48,310 S1: saw someone on the plane not too long ago. I 59 00:02:48,310 --> 00:02:50,680 S1: was sitting on my own on a flight and this 60 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,990 S1: guy pulled out his Nintendo Switch. So if you don't 61 00:02:52,990 --> 00:02:55,910 S1: want a Nintendo Switches, it's basically like the new version 62 00:02:55,910 --> 00:02:59,300 S1: of a Game Boy, much bigger screen. And these two 63 00:02:59,330 --> 00:03:01,220 S1: handles on the side, you can actually take them off 64 00:03:01,220 --> 00:03:03,020 S1: and then you can play two player so you can 65 00:03:03,020 --> 00:03:05,210 S1: like then put the little screen on the table and 66 00:03:05,210 --> 00:03:08,300 S1: then like play with your friend. And I was watching 67 00:03:08,300 --> 00:03:10,670 S1: them play and he even offered like to let me play. 68 00:03:10,669 --> 00:03:13,250 S1: But I was like, honestly, I'm just watching it. Yeah. 69 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,050 S1: This is total stranger was like, do you want to 70 00:03:15,050 --> 00:03:17,090 S1: play against me? And I was like, that's so sweet. 71 00:03:17,180 --> 00:03:18,700 S2: Is it because you were engaging with him? 72 00:03:18,700 --> 00:03:20,679 S1: I kept watching it like it was so engaging. 73 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,960 S2: So could he feel you watching or did you say, like. 74 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,630 S1: Very friendly person? Like he was chatting and I was like, 75 00:03:25,630 --> 00:03:28,090 S1: oh my God, that's so smart. I've never thought about, like, 76 00:03:28,090 --> 00:03:30,220 S1: gaming on a plane, but it really makes it anyway. 77 00:03:30,490 --> 00:03:33,490 S1: So ever since then I've been thinking, God, I miss, 78 00:03:33,490 --> 00:03:36,490 S1: I miss gaming and also outside of Nintendo, I would 79 00:03:36,490 --> 00:03:38,410 S1: honestly on a sick day from school, play eight hours 80 00:03:38,410 --> 00:03:40,540 S1: of the Sims like I was a gamer growing up, 81 00:03:40,540 --> 00:03:43,330 S1: so I loved all that sort of stuff computer games, etc. 82 00:03:43,330 --> 00:03:45,430 S1: and then the other day I said to Josh, I 83 00:03:45,430 --> 00:03:47,800 S1: think I want a Nintendo Switch, because then when I 84 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,990 S1: found out was, you don't just play it on that. 85 00:03:49,990 --> 00:03:53,920 S1: You can also plug it in to your TV and 86 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,140 S1: like buy another like an extra controller. If you don't 87 00:03:56,140 --> 00:03:56,980 S1: want to play on the little one. 88 00:03:57,130 --> 00:03:59,110 S2: A little console that you could take with you, but 89 00:03:59,110 --> 00:04:00,850 S2: you can also have at home. The Nintendo. 90 00:04:00,850 --> 00:04:02,350 S1: Switch is like take away, but. 91 00:04:02,350 --> 00:04:04,180 S2: Also I'm thinking Xbox vibes. 92 00:04:04,180 --> 00:04:06,580 S1: No, no. Well, no, it's not huge. It's like the 93 00:04:06,580 --> 00:04:08,700 S1: plug in thing is like this big for the TV. 94 00:04:08,700 --> 00:04:10,920 S1: So now and then we just bought an extra, um 95 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,850 S1: wireless control. So now he like he's playing the control. 96 00:04:14,850 --> 00:04:17,550 S1: I've got my control and we've got a projector in 97 00:04:17,550 --> 00:04:21,210 S1: our room, which I freaking love. And we just literally 98 00:04:21,210 --> 00:04:24,900 S1: been getting into bed, turning the projector on and playing 99 00:04:24,900 --> 00:04:26,910 S1: Mario Kart for an hour before we go to bed. 100 00:04:26,910 --> 00:04:28,860 S1: The only thing is, as I said to Josh, we 101 00:04:28,860 --> 00:04:30,690 S1: need to work on. Yes. Yeah. So that's the only 102 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,440 S1: thing is, I've said to him, I need a still 103 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,860 S1: include my reading in this like downtime because the other 104 00:04:35,860 --> 00:04:38,410 S1: night it's competitive. Right. And it's like also there's a 105 00:04:38,410 --> 00:04:40,659 S1: lot going on. Like also I don't know how doc 106 00:04:40,660 --> 00:04:42,400 S1: would go with his vertigo because like some of it's 107 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:43,900 S1: like I don't. 108 00:04:43,900 --> 00:04:46,390 S2: Think he's a gamer either. It's just not it's not 109 00:04:46,390 --> 00:04:49,180 S2: I don't think we're we're picking up this habit, but I. 110 00:04:49,180 --> 00:04:51,340 S1: It's so fun. And I think what's what I enjoy 111 00:04:51,339 --> 00:04:53,979 S1: about it is like when we're watching something, you know, 112 00:04:53,980 --> 00:04:56,620 S1: you're not, like engaging with each other. You're just watching 113 00:04:56,620 --> 00:05:00,340 S1: something in the game. You're like getting competitive. You're like 114 00:05:00,339 --> 00:05:02,650 S1: high fiving. If you both had a good run or 115 00:05:02,650 --> 00:05:05,349 S1: you're like, yeah, there's so much. And I just, we're 116 00:05:05,350 --> 00:05:07,810 S1: having so much fun. And I feel like it's like 117 00:05:07,810 --> 00:05:10,870 S1: we're kids again. And, um, it's tapping back into my 118 00:05:10,870 --> 00:05:14,080 S1: memories of being like 13 and playing or maybe like 119 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:17,470 S1: 14 and playing Guitar Hero with Josh, like when we 120 00:05:17,470 --> 00:05:19,740 S1: were friends at the farm. So like, it's just it's 121 00:05:19,740 --> 00:05:22,980 S1: so fun. I love it and I have zero regrets. Um, 122 00:05:22,980 --> 00:05:23,969 S1: in the purchase. 123 00:05:23,970 --> 00:05:25,890 S2: I love it and I as soon as I saw 124 00:05:25,890 --> 00:05:27,779 S2: your TikTok, I'm like, oh my God, what the heck 125 00:05:27,779 --> 00:05:31,020 S2: are Nintendo Switch? Thank you for sharing that. Yeah, and. 126 00:05:31,020 --> 00:05:32,760 S1: Josh is about to go away and I'm shattered because 127 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:34,080 S1: he's going to take it with him because he's got 128 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,330 S1: a lot of like, flights. So it's going to be 129 00:05:36,330 --> 00:05:38,310 S1: good for him. But then I'll be at home like, damn, 130 00:05:38,310 --> 00:05:41,730 S1: he's getting better and I'm not getting the practice. 131 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,090 S2: I think this is going to be one of my 132 00:05:45,089 --> 00:05:47,340 S2: all time favorite segments. It's just making. 133 00:05:47,339 --> 00:05:48,180 S1: Me smile already. 134 00:05:48,180 --> 00:05:51,179 S2: By the time this episode comes out, the Olympics will 135 00:05:51,180 --> 00:05:55,440 S2: sadly be over and so we had to keep it going. 136 00:05:55,620 --> 00:05:58,320 S2: We had to keep it going, and so we thought 137 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,350 S2: we could come and share some of our favorite Olympic 138 00:06:01,350 --> 00:06:04,410 S2: moments with you guys, but we thought we could pull 139 00:06:04,410 --> 00:06:07,890 S2: out some moments that have made us smile outside of 140 00:06:07,890 --> 00:06:10,520 S2: the medal ceremonies. Mhm. 141 00:06:10,550 --> 00:06:13,160 S1: Because there's honestly so much and I think that's what 142 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,200 S1: I've loved so much about the Olympics and I suppose 143 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,380 S1: is different about the Olympics. Now to the Olympics that 144 00:06:18,380 --> 00:06:20,900 S1: we grew up watching laws is that there is so 145 00:06:20,900 --> 00:06:24,710 S1: much extra content online, like whether that's like interviews you 146 00:06:24,710 --> 00:06:26,810 S1: might have missed or just behind the scenes, like being 147 00:06:26,810 --> 00:06:30,740 S1: able to follow the actual player players. Sorry, players and athletes. 148 00:06:30,740 --> 00:06:35,180 S1: One that I have. absolutely enjoyed pretty much every single 149 00:06:35,180 --> 00:06:38,480 S1: post she's put out there is a loner mayhem. She's 150 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,810 S1: an American rugby player. If you haven't heard of her 151 00:06:41,810 --> 00:06:44,780 S1: or seen her content, we will absolutely tag it in 152 00:06:44,779 --> 00:06:46,400 S1: the show notes so you can go and see her. 153 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:50,390 S1: Her following is skyrocketing right now during the Olympics for 154 00:06:50,390 --> 00:06:53,330 S1: good reason because her content is golden. We actually have 155 00:06:53,330 --> 00:06:55,310 S1: a clip to share with you now just so you 156 00:06:55,310 --> 00:06:57,150 S1: can get a feel for her vibe. 157 00:06:57,270 --> 00:06:59,070 S3: As the Olympics officially start. Today, I want you all 158 00:06:59,070 --> 00:07:00,450 S3: to take a look at all the different body types 159 00:07:00,450 --> 00:07:03,000 S3: on display. All body types matter. All body types are 160 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,910 S3: worthy from the smallest gymnasts to the tallest volleyball player, 161 00:07:05,910 --> 00:07:08,279 S3: from a rugby player to a shot putter and a sprinter. 162 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:10,590 S3: All body types are beautiful and can do amazing things. 163 00:07:10,590 --> 00:07:12,510 S3: So truly see yourself in these athletes and know that 164 00:07:12,510 --> 00:07:13,440 S3: you can do it too. 165 00:07:13,620 --> 00:07:15,060 S2: I just love that. 166 00:07:15,060 --> 00:07:19,320 S1: It's just it's so true. There's so much diversity in 167 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,490 S1: body types in the Olympics. And I think that that is, again, 168 00:07:22,490 --> 00:07:24,440 S1: the biggest point that we always try and make through 169 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,740 S1: Keke is that healthy doesn't look one size and it 170 00:07:27,740 --> 00:07:31,100 S1: is just proving that point. And yeah, she's just done 171 00:07:31,100 --> 00:07:34,430 S1: a phenomenal job with the content that she's putting out there. 172 00:07:34,430 --> 00:07:37,610 S1: So much joy and also so much feel good content. 173 00:07:37,610 --> 00:07:40,190 S2: I, I love her and one of my I know 174 00:07:40,190 --> 00:07:42,440 S2: Lynn's you've got another snippet, haven't you. Can we play 175 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,150 S2: that now? This one's one of my favorites. 176 00:07:44,270 --> 00:07:47,330 S3: I think there's some misconceptions about what athletes eat. We 177 00:07:47,330 --> 00:07:49,700 S3: eat a lot of carbs. I got three forms of 178 00:07:49,700 --> 00:07:53,630 S3: carbs in my place right now a bread roll, a croissant, 179 00:07:54,410 --> 00:07:57,470 S3: a crepe. Fuel up. Don't stay hungry. 180 00:07:57,950 --> 00:08:00,320 S2: I love that she does a lot of content around 181 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,020 S2: how important it is to eat and like, not have 182 00:08:03,020 --> 00:08:05,960 S2: three coffees in the morning without eating and all of this, like, 183 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,390 S2: she's just she's really good. And I think again, like, 184 00:08:08,390 --> 00:08:11,260 S2: as you said, she is an Olympic athlete. She is 185 00:08:11,260 --> 00:08:14,560 S2: fueling her body for performance and to take care of 186 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,600 S2: her body. And I think she's just the most one 187 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,540 S2: of the most incredible role models. So highly recommend following. 188 00:08:19,540 --> 00:08:22,570 S2: And she's also really funny. She's which we love, love. 189 00:08:22,570 --> 00:08:24,550 S2: So highly recommend. And that's been a highlight of my 190 00:08:24,550 --> 00:08:28,660 S2: Olympics too. Okay, so one of my other highlights is 191 00:08:28,660 --> 00:08:32,349 S2: actually the equality at the Olympics. So I shared this 192 00:08:32,380 --> 00:08:35,530 S2: on my Instagram a few weeks ago. But just in 193 00:08:35,530 --> 00:08:37,179 S2: case you didn't see it, I have to read it out. 194 00:08:37,179 --> 00:08:39,550 S2: So there was a post that was shared by the 195 00:08:39,550 --> 00:08:43,209 S2: underscore female underscore lead. We'll link it in the show notes. 196 00:08:43,210 --> 00:08:46,600 S2: And it is it was titled equality at the Olympics. 197 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:50,829 S2: And it's the share of female athletes versus male athletes 198 00:08:50,830 --> 00:08:55,300 S2: in each games. And what's just crazy is when I, 199 00:08:55,300 --> 00:08:57,460 S2: when we were born or actually I was born, you 200 00:08:57,470 --> 00:08:59,750 S2: were still in the womb. You were actually you weren't born. 201 00:08:59,750 --> 00:09:02,720 S2: You weren't even created yet. But one, one year after 1992. 202 00:09:02,750 --> 00:09:05,600 S2: It actually wasn't 5050 yet. No, but I don't know why. 203 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,630 S2: In my head, I had thought the Olympics was one 204 00:09:08,630 --> 00:09:10,880 S2: of the sporting fields where it was equal, and it 205 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:16,250 S2: was not like, of course it wasn't. So in 1900 206 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:21,650 S2: there was 2.2% female athletes, so 97.8%. 207 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,770 S1: That was back when you couldn't even run a marathon 208 00:09:23,770 --> 00:09:24,069 S1: as a female. 209 00:09:24,100 --> 00:09:26,800 S2: We couldn't take a bank account. Yeah, exactly. We weren't 210 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:34,270 S2: allowed to. We weren't allowed to run a marathon. It's just. Yeah, 1964, 13.2%. 211 00:09:34,270 --> 00:09:38,920 S2: So over 64 years, there was 11% progress. 212 00:09:39,100 --> 00:09:42,850 S1: Again, 60s. Very much housewife. That's all we did. Yeah. 213 00:09:42,850 --> 00:09:47,680 S2: And then 1992. So this is just under 30 years 214 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:52,000 S2: on from a 13.2%. We then doubled it to 28.9%. 215 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,010 S2: So I was born in 1992. That's just crazy. It 216 00:09:54,010 --> 00:09:57,100 S2: was still less than 30%, one third. And then in 217 00:09:57,100 --> 00:10:01,210 S2: 2024 50%. Yeah, that is progress. 218 00:10:01,210 --> 00:10:03,550 S1: You know why, though? A huge thing is this is 219 00:10:03,550 --> 00:10:06,880 S1: the first year that they're actually supporting mums in a 220 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,490 S1: good way. Like I think the facilities have got stuff 221 00:10:09,490 --> 00:10:14,080 S1: for toddlers, for kids, for families to be nearby, for breastfeeding, etc. 222 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,450 S1: this is the first year that they've actually done that, 223 00:10:16,450 --> 00:10:19,870 S1: which is just insane to me, because that knocks out 224 00:10:19,870 --> 00:10:22,120 S1: a lot of women, like a lot of people at 225 00:10:22,150 --> 00:10:25,000 S1: their peak. Um, and at that age is at that 226 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,310 S1: same age where a lot of people are having children. 227 00:10:27,309 --> 00:10:30,040 S1: So like to have that support has just enabled a 228 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:31,990 S1: lot of the women. I mean, there was a woman 229 00:10:31,990 --> 00:10:35,430 S1: in fencing from another country. She was seven months pregnant. Like, 230 00:10:35,429 --> 00:10:35,760 S1: that was. 231 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,670 S2: One of my other favorite highlights. Yeah, it's so cool. 232 00:10:38,670 --> 00:10:39,570 S2: And seven months. 233 00:10:39,570 --> 00:10:42,630 S1: I know it's it's incredible. And like so many and 234 00:10:42,630 --> 00:10:44,490 S1: this is not pregnancy related. 235 00:10:44,490 --> 00:10:45,390 S2: Gold. 236 00:10:45,390 --> 00:10:47,250 S1: Did she. I wasn't sure if she got a medal. 237 00:10:47,250 --> 00:10:48,360 S2: Got a medal. She got a medal. 238 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,600 S1: Oh amazing. Yeah. That's even that's even cooler. I think 239 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,000 S1: even like a lot of the athletes who I've heard 240 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:58,110 S1: a few different stories, um, of athletes who, when they were. 241 00:10:58,110 --> 00:11:00,179 S1: What's it called when they're going for? Like, it's like 242 00:11:00,179 --> 00:11:01,650 S1: the last thing to say if they're getting into the 243 00:11:01,650 --> 00:11:02,490 S1: Olympics or not. 244 00:11:02,790 --> 00:11:05,490 S2: Like, oh. Olympic qualifiers. Qualifiers? Yeah. They're qualifiers. 245 00:11:05,490 --> 00:11:08,729 S1: One of them was one year postpartum, and it was 246 00:11:08,730 --> 00:11:11,939 S1: the very first period she had. And if anyone's had 247 00:11:11,940 --> 00:11:14,520 S1: a baby, you would know that your first period is 248 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,439 S1: frickin hell. Like you were talking about earlier in the 249 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,650 S1: episode with Niagara Falls. It's like that because it happens 250 00:11:19,650 --> 00:11:22,260 S1: for everyone. Everyone's different timing with when it comes in. 251 00:11:22,260 --> 00:11:24,540 S1: But for her, the day she was qualifying was like 252 00:11:24,540 --> 00:11:26,309 S1: day one of her period and was the first period 253 00:11:26,309 --> 00:11:29,460 S1: she'd had since having a baby, and she qualified and 254 00:11:29,460 --> 00:11:31,560 S1: I was like, just nothing can stop us. 255 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,540 S4: I made a note on that. I think that that 256 00:11:33,540 --> 00:11:37,500 S4: was the high, the fastest time ever in the 5000m 257 00:11:37,500 --> 00:11:41,730 S4: women in the, uh, in the US trials history go off. 258 00:11:41,730 --> 00:11:45,420 S2: Oh my goodness. So that was al Saint-Pierre, the fastest 259 00:11:45,420 --> 00:11:48,449 S2: woman in US trials history in the 5000m. 260 00:11:48,450 --> 00:11:49,140 S1: Insane. 261 00:11:49,140 --> 00:11:50,280 S2: That's incredible. 262 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,280 S1: Another one that I wanted to shout out is Kimberly Woods. 263 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,250 S1: She's from the United Kingdom, and I, when I was 264 00:11:56,250 --> 00:11:59,880 S1: watching our incredible Jess Fox, which shout out to Jess 265 00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:02,160 S1: so far, I know she's got another race when we're 266 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,400 S1: recording this, but she's won two golds, which is just insane. 267 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,970 S1: So shout out to you, Jess. When I was watching Jess, um, 268 00:12:08,970 --> 00:12:12,450 S1: Kimberly Woods was towards the end of the heat, and 269 00:12:12,450 --> 00:12:16,440 S1: I watched her win her bronze medal. And the moment 270 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:20,910 S1: that she realized that she won was so raw and emotional, 271 00:12:20,910 --> 00:12:24,480 S1: and it was just so beautiful. And when I heard 272 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,689 S1: the commentators speaking about her story because I hadn't heard 273 00:12:27,690 --> 00:12:30,870 S1: of Kimberly Woods before, um, they were mentioning that she'd 274 00:12:30,870 --> 00:12:33,150 S1: been through a lot in, like, her mental health and 275 00:12:33,150 --> 00:12:35,490 S1: quite a journey, and it was like a really, really 276 00:12:35,490 --> 00:12:38,610 S1: long journey to get here to this medal ceremony and 277 00:12:38,610 --> 00:12:40,740 S1: the Olympics. And so I looked a little bit more 278 00:12:40,740 --> 00:12:44,340 S1: into her background, and she was bullied as a kid 279 00:12:44,340 --> 00:12:48,930 S1: because she'd always had quite a muscular frame, um, which 280 00:12:48,929 --> 00:12:53,069 S1: I instantly related to, um, because it was something that 281 00:12:53,070 --> 00:12:55,710 S1: I was also kind of teased for, and I also 282 00:12:55,710 --> 00:12:59,160 S1: just had this internal insecurity about it. I thought I 283 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,579 S1: looked like a little boy growing up. All I wanted 284 00:13:01,580 --> 00:13:03,709 S1: was hips and boobs and curves and I just felt 285 00:13:03,710 --> 00:13:06,980 S1: like it didn't. I didn't look womanly. Um, and then 286 00:13:06,980 --> 00:13:09,620 S1: I think even as I grew up, I then entered 287 00:13:09,620 --> 00:13:12,770 S1: the modeling industry where, especially at the time, like it 288 00:13:12,770 --> 00:13:15,380 S1: slightly changed now in certain markets, but especially at the time, 289 00:13:15,380 --> 00:13:18,530 S1: they didn't want you looking muscular, they wanted you looking skinny. 290 00:13:18,530 --> 00:13:21,230 S1: And so it was something that I was then again, 291 00:13:21,230 --> 00:13:25,939 S1: insecure about in that time. Um, now, Kimberly, actually, you know, 292 00:13:25,940 --> 00:13:28,130 S1: it affected her so much. So. And there was other 293 00:13:28,130 --> 00:13:30,860 S1: things as well, um, like races that didn't go her 294 00:13:30,860 --> 00:13:33,860 S1: way and injuries and stuff like that. That absolutely exacerbated this. 295 00:13:33,860 --> 00:13:39,230 S1: But she actually was like self-harming at one point. And, um, yeah, 296 00:13:39,230 --> 00:13:42,140 S1: went through quite a lot to be where she is today. 297 00:13:42,140 --> 00:13:45,710 S1: And I just think it's quite insane that, you know, 298 00:13:45,710 --> 00:13:48,140 S1: an insecurity over your body looking a certain way and 299 00:13:48,140 --> 00:13:50,660 S1: then your body serving you to the point that you 300 00:13:50,660 --> 00:13:53,270 S1: become an Olympic medalist is like, it's such a cool 301 00:13:53,270 --> 00:13:56,360 S1: story and it's just a reminder, I think, for everyone, again, 302 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:58,939 S1: to our point earlier, that healthy bodies come in all 303 00:13:58,940 --> 00:14:02,420 S1: sizes like shapes and sizes. Um, and to not be 304 00:14:02,420 --> 00:14:05,720 S1: insecure if your body looks different, um, or is. Let's 305 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,780 S1: stop labeling them as masculine or feminine. Like, it doesn't 306 00:14:08,780 --> 00:14:11,150 S1: matter if you're curvy, or if you're muscly or you're 307 00:14:11,150 --> 00:14:15,530 S1: skinny and tall. Nothing is more feminine or masculine for 308 00:14:15,530 --> 00:14:18,590 S1: either genders. Um, and I just I love her story. 309 00:14:18,590 --> 00:14:19,400 S1: It's so cool. 310 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,160 S2: I love that stuff. Thank you. There's just the best 311 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:25,550 S2: segment ever. Okay, now one quick point on that before 312 00:14:25,550 --> 00:14:28,250 S2: we move on to our last one is just also 313 00:14:28,250 --> 00:14:32,030 S2: if you haven't watched. So speaking of the canoeing and 314 00:14:32,150 --> 00:14:37,010 S2: kayaking the K-1. So Jess Fox's first medal in the K1. 315 00:14:37,010 --> 00:14:39,080 S2: Yeah there is. We're also linked this in the show notes. 316 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:40,820 S2: So if you haven't seen it there's a video of 317 00:14:40,820 --> 00:14:43,670 S2: her mum watching her and she's running because. 318 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:44,510 S1: Her mum's also her. 319 00:14:44,510 --> 00:14:47,570 S2: Coach. Yes, exactly. And her sister is also in the Olympics. 320 00:14:47,570 --> 00:14:50,780 S2: So it's a very big moment for the family. Right. 321 00:14:50,780 --> 00:14:54,230 S2: And with the K1 you, it's you're going down the 322 00:14:54,230 --> 00:14:56,900 S2: stream but you're also having to go around all of these. 323 00:14:56,900 --> 00:14:58,340 S2: I mean that's the main part isn't it. Yeah. These 324 00:14:58,340 --> 00:15:01,810 S2: pole things to get your canoe. Yeah. The kayak around that. 325 00:15:01,810 --> 00:15:04,630 S2: It looks so difficult you have to paddle backwards like 326 00:15:04,630 --> 00:15:07,420 S2: I can't even. Anyway, so what that means for people 327 00:15:07,420 --> 00:15:09,220 S2: who are watching is you like run and then you stop, 328 00:15:09,220 --> 00:15:10,359 S2: you run and you start your run and you stop. 329 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,390 S2: And so you can see her mum and you can 330 00:15:13,390 --> 00:15:16,780 S2: see as her mum realises that, like she's going to 331 00:15:16,780 --> 00:15:20,140 S2: get gold and get a medal and it's just the most, 332 00:15:20,140 --> 00:15:22,000 S2: I actually want to start crying right now. It's just 333 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:26,650 S2: the most beautiful, beautiful moment. And I think Jesse's this 334 00:15:26,650 --> 00:15:26,920 S2: is his. 335 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:27,820 S1: Fourth Olympics. 336 00:15:27,820 --> 00:15:30,490 S2: Crazy. And this is her I mean, her first two golds. 337 00:15:30,670 --> 00:15:33,550 S2: I think it's her first gold actually. Is it Lin's, 338 00:15:33,550 --> 00:15:34,180 S2: do you know? 339 00:15:34,180 --> 00:15:36,460 S4: Yeah. It's the first time any paddler, male or female, 340 00:15:36,460 --> 00:15:38,440 S4: has won gold in both the C-1 and the K-1 341 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:39,550 S4: at the same Olympics. 342 00:15:39,550 --> 00:15:41,350 S1: Gah, that's so cool. 343 00:15:41,350 --> 00:15:46,479 S2: And the last one is Harry Garside. Yeah. So this 344 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:50,380 S2: is just the one of the most beautiful. No, not 345 00:15:50,380 --> 00:15:52,900 S2: beautiful in terms of what he that he lost his fight, 346 00:15:52,900 --> 00:15:56,080 S2: which was absolutely heartbreaking for him. But the way that 347 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:59,650 S2: he handled it, the way that he, Harry, is incredible. 348 00:15:59,650 --> 00:16:03,040 S2: We've actually released, if you go back onto our feed 349 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,170 S2: and you scroll back a few episodes, you'll be able 350 00:16:05,170 --> 00:16:08,980 S2: to find our episode that we recorded with Harry about 351 00:16:08,980 --> 00:16:13,210 S2: his story, what he's about. He's incredible about a year ago. 352 00:16:13,210 --> 00:16:14,830 S2: So we've brought that back up for you just in 353 00:16:14,830 --> 00:16:17,830 S2: case you had not listened to it. Because it is so, so, 354 00:16:17,830 --> 00:16:20,620 S2: so good. So make sure you listen to that. But, Harry, 355 00:16:20,620 --> 00:16:24,370 S2: what's been incredible is he puts himself out there. It 356 00:16:24,370 --> 00:16:28,630 S2: takes like, so much guts to go on your profile, 357 00:16:28,630 --> 00:16:30,970 S2: your social media or whatever. It's not even just social 358 00:16:30,970 --> 00:16:33,190 S2: media to your friends, whatever in your life, say out 359 00:16:33,190 --> 00:16:38,650 S2: loud that you if you're doing visualization, affirmation, manifestation when 360 00:16:38,650 --> 00:16:41,950 S2: you're saying because when you do manifestation in particular, you're 361 00:16:41,950 --> 00:16:43,750 S2: not the way that you're meant to say it when 362 00:16:43,750 --> 00:16:45,520 S2: you do it properly is you actually say, like, if 363 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,620 S2: you want to get a gold medal, for example, I 364 00:16:47,620 --> 00:16:50,500 S2: am a gold medalist. You don't say, I want to win, 365 00:16:50,500 --> 00:16:52,780 S2: because then there's like you say, I am a gold medalist. 366 00:16:52,780 --> 00:16:55,930 S2: So you the thing that you're working towards, you visualize 367 00:16:55,930 --> 00:17:00,130 S2: yourself already doing that out the door. Exactly right. And 368 00:17:00,130 --> 00:17:02,540 S2: so that's one thing to do it personally. Right. But 369 00:17:02,540 --> 00:17:07,970 S2: to put that online to hundreds of thousands of people, 370 00:17:07,970 --> 00:17:10,460 S2: to see that and then go up on the Olympic 371 00:17:10,460 --> 00:17:12,859 S2: stage knowing that, you know, it might you might not 372 00:17:12,859 --> 00:17:14,899 S2: be able to win it. In this case, very sadly, 373 00:17:14,900 --> 00:17:17,149 S2: because of boxing, I really don't like the way that 374 00:17:17,150 --> 00:17:19,610 S2: it is programmed, to be honest, because it's instant knockout 375 00:17:19,609 --> 00:17:22,879 S2: if you lose. And Harry, his first match up was 376 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,670 S2: in and I'm not a boxing expert, but from the commentators, 377 00:17:25,670 --> 00:17:27,600 S2: they said it was a very awkward match for him 378 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:31,139 S2: because of the persons, his opponent's height, the way they were. 379 00:17:31,260 --> 00:17:34,080 S1: So I heard commentary around the guy who he was 380 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,050 S1: up against was one that was like going to, I 381 00:17:37,050 --> 00:17:38,970 S1: don't know who ended up winning gold, but he was 382 00:17:38,970 --> 00:17:41,100 S1: a potential to win the gold. So I think like 383 00:17:41,100 --> 00:17:43,110 S1: first round, he was up against one of the favorites. 384 00:17:43,109 --> 00:17:45,840 S2: That's pretty tough. Yeah, that's that's that's what's so hard 385 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:47,429 S2: isn't it. It's like possibly that could have been the 386 00:17:47,430 --> 00:17:49,770 S2: gold medal match. But because of the draw that was 387 00:17:49,770 --> 00:17:53,980 S2: the first round. And unfortunately Harry lost. And he said 388 00:17:53,980 --> 00:17:56,770 S2: at the when he came out of the fight he 389 00:17:56,770 --> 00:17:59,530 S2: called himself a failure. And he then said he would be. 390 00:17:59,530 --> 00:18:03,040 S2: There would be some really dark times ahead for him. 391 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,310 S2: So obviously that was absolutely heartbreaking to watch. But then 392 00:18:06,310 --> 00:18:09,910 S2: what was absolutely incredible was the next day he posted 393 00:18:09,910 --> 00:18:12,220 S2: on his Instagram, we'll link this in the show notes, 394 00:18:12,220 --> 00:18:16,169 S2: a video where he spoke about the fact that he 395 00:18:16,170 --> 00:18:19,830 S2: had realized that it wasn't about like, it's obviously the 396 00:18:19,830 --> 00:18:22,380 S2: gold medal is very important, but the growth that he 397 00:18:22,380 --> 00:18:26,460 S2: had got from the every single training session, every single 398 00:18:26,460 --> 00:18:29,790 S2: day that he'd gone to train for the Olympics and 399 00:18:29,790 --> 00:18:33,030 S2: trained so hard he gave it everything. He sacrificed so 400 00:18:33,030 --> 00:18:36,359 S2: much that there was so much that he got out 401 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:39,540 S2: of that that had nothing to do with the Olympics, 402 00:18:39,540 --> 00:18:42,180 S2: and he'd grown as a person, and he was now 403 00:18:42,180 --> 00:18:44,340 S2: so much more equipped for, you know, his life. And 404 00:18:44,340 --> 00:18:47,250 S2: he'd evolved. And I just think it is just such 405 00:18:47,250 --> 00:18:51,540 S2: a beautiful mindset shift because so many people like like, 406 00:18:51,540 --> 00:18:55,500 S2: I mean, myself included, we fear failure and it stops 407 00:18:55,500 --> 00:19:00,389 S2: us from doing things when the magic isn't in the destination, 408 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,460 S2: it's in the journey and what you get out of it. 409 00:19:03,460 --> 00:19:05,830 S1: Yeah. We love you, Harry. If you're listening. 410 00:19:06,310 --> 00:19:09,640 S2: Yeah, we love big fans. He's a bit busy. He's probably. 411 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:11,830 S2: He's probably parading around Paris. 412 00:19:11,859 --> 00:19:14,590 S1: Oh, he's just so impressive. So yeah, we I mean, 413 00:19:14,590 --> 00:19:16,630 S1: we hope you guys enjoy the Olympics as much as 414 00:19:16,630 --> 00:19:18,640 S1: we did. And if you didn't catch a lot of it, 415 00:19:18,670 --> 00:19:21,550 S1: it'll still be all over social media. Get that shit 416 00:19:21,550 --> 00:19:23,290 S1: in your algorithm now. 417 00:19:23,290 --> 00:19:26,140 S2: Oh, yeah. Go back and watch the replay on nine now. Nine. 418 00:19:26,140 --> 00:19:28,920 S2: Channel nine have done a great job a done an 419 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:32,640 S2: amazing job at coverage of the Olympics. It's just been 420 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:34,650 S2: all the and I'm sure it'll probably stay up so 421 00:19:34,650 --> 00:19:37,950 S2: you can go back and watch anything. It's really good. Yeah. 422 00:19:37,950 --> 00:19:42,119 S2: Really really really really good. We love we love. 423 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:46,020 S5: Watching. 424 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,679 S2: Now before we get into this segment, I have to say, 425 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,670 S2: if there are any little ears around, you definitely don't 426 00:19:52,670 --> 00:19:54,590 S2: play this in front of them. I did use a 427 00:19:54,590 --> 00:19:56,869 S2: lot of swear words here, and I do. I'm not 428 00:19:56,869 --> 00:19:59,090 S2: going to apologize for it because I'm speaking about something 429 00:19:59,090 --> 00:20:00,740 S2: that I'm very passionate about. And I know you don't 430 00:20:00,740 --> 00:20:02,840 S2: always have to use swear words, but I just they 431 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:04,879 S2: just had to come out in the segment. So anyway, 432 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,070 S2: put the headphones in if you have little ears around 433 00:20:07,070 --> 00:20:08,899 S2: you or if you just don't like swearing, this is 434 00:20:08,900 --> 00:20:12,710 S2: not the segment for you. Okay, I have to get 435 00:20:12,710 --> 00:20:15,170 S2: something off my chest. Buckle in guys, buckle in. I've 436 00:20:15,170 --> 00:20:16,130 S2: got to get something off. 437 00:20:16,130 --> 00:20:17,480 S1: My favorite type of segment. 438 00:20:17,510 --> 00:20:19,580 S2: Okay. This is it's on. I'm not going to call 439 00:20:19,580 --> 00:20:22,970 S2: it a rant. It's called channeled frustration in a positive way. 440 00:20:22,970 --> 00:20:24,110 S2: So yeah. 441 00:20:24,109 --> 00:20:27,050 S1: And like sometimes you just need a vent and it's 442 00:20:27,050 --> 00:20:28,429 S1: absolutely valid. 443 00:20:28,430 --> 00:20:31,550 S2: May I say thank you my queen. Yeah. Okay. So 444 00:20:31,550 --> 00:20:33,590 S2: what we're talking or what I'm about to talk about. 445 00:20:33,590 --> 00:20:35,659 S2: And I've already done the first part of this rant 446 00:20:35,660 --> 00:20:38,359 S2: on Instagram and I'm not going to do that part again. 447 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:40,649 S2: I've got a second part that I want to bring back, 448 00:20:40,650 --> 00:20:42,750 S2: so we'll link the first part in the show. Many 449 00:20:42,750 --> 00:20:46,770 S2: links in the show notes. I love it, honestly, like 450 00:20:46,770 --> 00:20:48,930 S2: a public knows they're called a bibliography. I always used 451 00:20:48,930 --> 00:20:52,080 S2: to get confused. Have a look at all the references. Yeah, references. 452 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,110 S2: Because I got confused between biography and bibliography. I always 453 00:20:55,109 --> 00:20:59,130 S2: used to confuse the words and they're very different anyway. 454 00:20:59,130 --> 00:21:01,230 S2: So yes, the reference list is going to be about 455 00:21:01,230 --> 00:21:04,290 S2: 100 long here, but stay with us. They're worth it. 456 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:08,460 S2: Go in, get in, buckle in, buckle in on this journey, everyone. Okay, 457 00:21:08,460 --> 00:21:12,810 S2: so I was scrolling scrolling through my TikTok the other 458 00:21:12,810 --> 00:21:16,530 S2: day a few weeks ago, and I saw there was 459 00:21:16,530 --> 00:21:20,040 S2: a video about us, but then I whatever, whatever. But 460 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:23,430 S2: then it was there was comments in the on the video. Yeah. 461 00:21:23,670 --> 00:21:25,470 S2: And I read one of the comments and this is 462 00:21:25,470 --> 00:21:29,000 S2: what I made my original video video about. They were 463 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:32,209 S2: talking about us, Steph and I, they make women in 464 00:21:32,210 --> 00:21:36,020 S2: business look so daft. Or are they personal trainers? What 465 00:21:36,020 --> 00:21:39,710 S2: expertise do they have? So the first thing I started 466 00:21:39,710 --> 00:21:42,170 S2: with was would you ever judge and ask a male 467 00:21:42,170 --> 00:21:45,200 S2: CEO for their qualifications? The second part of the video, 468 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:48,320 S2: what I went into was as leaders and as we. 469 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,170 S2: You can't be what you can't see. Yeah. Being a leader, 470 00:21:51,170 --> 00:21:54,610 S2: I find it incredibly important to show your true self 471 00:21:54,609 --> 00:21:57,430 S2: and show. Obviously, there's, you know, there's parts of maybe 472 00:21:57,430 --> 00:22:00,490 S2: yourself that I do. I lean into my certain parts 473 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,879 S2: a little bit more. But showing yourself as a human. 474 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:05,679 S2: And the thing is as well, a lot of people 475 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,540 S2: might think, and I know because I've spoken to so 476 00:22:07,540 --> 00:22:09,910 S2: many people, I can't be a leader because I don't 477 00:22:09,910 --> 00:22:13,119 S2: look like that. And there is not only one way 478 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,910 S2: a leader can look, and that's why it's incredibly important, 479 00:22:15,910 --> 00:22:19,420 S2: especially for female leaders. I can be silly. I can 480 00:22:19,420 --> 00:22:21,160 S2: do dumb, not dumb. I'm not gonna call it dumb. 481 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,190 S2: I can do silly, funny videos, do this podcast, talk 482 00:22:24,190 --> 00:22:27,250 S2: about sex, talk about someone like taking my vibrator and 483 00:22:27,250 --> 00:22:30,580 S2: looking at it at the airport, film TikTok video dancers, 484 00:22:30,580 --> 00:22:33,190 S2: and also be really good at running a company. Do 485 00:22:33,190 --> 00:22:34,240 S2: you think this because. 486 00:22:34,390 --> 00:22:40,810 S1: Yes, I can do. Do you think that this particular one, 487 00:22:40,810 --> 00:22:43,270 S1: because we've spoken about how trolls like we're over it, 488 00:22:43,270 --> 00:22:45,340 S1: we're very sure of what we do and everything like that. 489 00:22:45,340 --> 00:22:47,080 S1: It doesn't affect us. And I know that you were 490 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:48,970 S1: biting back at this because you wanted to make sure 491 00:22:48,970 --> 00:22:52,750 S1: that anyone else reading it, but because I know you've 492 00:22:52,750 --> 00:22:55,780 S1: been there before, I know you've been where maybe it 493 00:22:55,780 --> 00:22:57,910 S1: was when you were first in the CEO role, or 494 00:22:57,910 --> 00:22:59,920 S1: even just as a business leader in a company, even 495 00:22:59,920 --> 00:23:03,040 S1: before you had that role. I know you've been like 496 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,070 S1: you've questioned what you put out online and like how 497 00:23:06,070 --> 00:23:07,750 S1: you are and how you show up and stuff like that, 498 00:23:07,750 --> 00:23:10,660 S1: because certain people have told you that certain things are 499 00:23:10,660 --> 00:23:13,360 S1: not appropriate. If you want to, like, come across as 500 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,420 S1: a smart business woman. So is it did it tick 501 00:23:16,420 --> 00:23:18,610 S1: you off particularly because you were like, I've been there. 502 00:23:18,609 --> 00:23:20,980 S1: I know what that feels like. I'm now on another 503 00:23:20,980 --> 00:23:24,310 S1: side where I'm starting to embrace who I am more publicly. 504 00:23:24,340 --> 00:23:26,950 S1: It feels really fucking good, and I'm still really good 505 00:23:26,950 --> 00:23:29,379 S1: at what I do like. That hasn't changed. I'm probably 506 00:23:29,380 --> 00:23:31,659 S1: better at what I do because I'm more comfortable with myself. 507 00:23:31,660 --> 00:23:33,280 S1: Do you think that's why it, like, hit that nerve? 508 00:23:33,310 --> 00:23:37,210 S2: 100%, Steph 100. And even for me, even though I'm 509 00:23:37,210 --> 00:23:39,790 S2: still I know that I'm a great leader, right? I 510 00:23:39,790 --> 00:23:42,190 S2: know I'm great at my job. I still struggle with 511 00:23:42,190 --> 00:23:43,060 S2: this sometimes because it. 512 00:23:43,060 --> 00:23:44,680 S1: Was a huge insecurity for you. 513 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,109 S2: Exactly right. Like, I still know if I dress a 514 00:23:47,109 --> 00:23:50,350 S2: certain way in certain meetings, I will be treated differently. 515 00:23:50,350 --> 00:23:53,109 S2: And that's that's fucking sucks, right? And so in my 516 00:23:53,109 --> 00:23:55,240 S2: head I'm like, well, do I lean into it because 517 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:56,920 S2: it's a game and you got to play it. And 518 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:58,060 S2: if you're in the game, you got to play the 519 00:23:58,060 --> 00:24:00,280 S2: game and you, it's like, I don't want to walk 520 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,230 S2: in and have to prove myself even more because I'm 521 00:24:02,230 --> 00:24:04,000 S2: wearing something that you're not going to take me seriously. 522 00:24:04,150 --> 00:24:07,390 S2: It's like it's that's in my head, right? But also 100% safe. 523 00:24:07,390 --> 00:24:10,359 S2: And so for me, is it is so important to 524 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:12,190 S2: talk about and as you said, I wanted to talk 525 00:24:12,190 --> 00:24:14,920 S2: about it not because I don't take people that comment 526 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:20,010 S2: on like gossip pages, personal comments about people's like personal. Exactly. 527 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,200 S2: I don't take that personal. It's not made me angry. 528 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:23,820 S2: But you know what I loved about this anger? It 529 00:24:23,820 --> 00:24:26,220 S2: reminds anger in this moment, reminds me of when I'm 530 00:24:26,220 --> 00:24:30,060 S2: so fucking passionate about. Exactly is this. And for me, 531 00:24:30,060 --> 00:24:32,550 S2: it's for whoever when you. If I don't, we don't 532 00:24:32,550 --> 00:24:34,950 S2: have trolls listening to the keyboard. Our cloud links are. 533 00:24:35,100 --> 00:24:38,760 S2: They are educated, they're supportive, they're progressive. 534 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:39,000 S1: Open. 535 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,450 S2: Minded. But what I want this troll to think about 536 00:24:42,450 --> 00:24:44,970 S2: is to think about challenge yourself like, why are you 537 00:24:44,970 --> 00:24:47,730 S2: judging me? Why do you feel this way? Like, why 538 00:24:47,730 --> 00:24:49,560 S2: do you think you can? You can't be a serious 539 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:53,250 S2: business person and also take funny content or be silly, right? 540 00:24:53,250 --> 00:24:55,230 S2: Why do you feel that way? You need to question 541 00:24:55,230 --> 00:24:59,280 S2: that belief system inside. But the other thing is, I 542 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:02,100 S2: have done so much work to get here. If I 543 00:25:02,100 --> 00:25:05,070 S2: was 18 and I read that comment that that continues 544 00:25:05,070 --> 00:25:08,199 S2: again to affirm my belief system, that you can't be 545 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,780 S2: taken seriously as a woman in business unless you look 546 00:25:10,810 --> 00:25:12,550 S2: a certain way. So that's why it's so important. That's 547 00:25:12,550 --> 00:25:14,260 S2: why I want to do the video. But then this 548 00:25:14,260 --> 00:25:16,180 S2: is what I also wanted to talk to you guys about. Okay, 549 00:25:16,180 --> 00:25:19,119 S2: so then this person comments on my video. Your point 550 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,149 S2: isn't actually sex based. It's probably more a general comment 551 00:25:22,150 --> 00:25:25,420 S2: around perception with being taken seriously. As a business person 552 00:25:25,420 --> 00:25:31,290 S2: who makes satirical, I can never say that word. Satirical satire. Satire, basically. 553 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:33,929 S2: But with al at the end. Oh. Far out. I 554 00:25:33,930 --> 00:25:36,780 S2: don't know. Content as well. But this is another chick 555 00:25:36,780 --> 00:25:38,700 S2: for him. He's like, you can't even read what he'd 556 00:25:38,700 --> 00:25:42,600 S2: be thinking. Anyway, please stop with the gender card. Sometimes 557 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:47,520 S2: it's just about the individual and their circumstances. Now I 558 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:51,600 S2: that thinking is the most backwards thinking. I am not 559 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,910 S2: playing a gender card here. I'm not. It's not men 560 00:25:53,910 --> 00:25:57,030 S2: versus women. I am married to a straight white man. Yeah, 561 00:25:57,030 --> 00:25:59,820 S2: I love men, right? I married one there. It's not 562 00:25:59,820 --> 00:26:03,119 S2: about playing the gender card at all. It is about 563 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:08,129 S2: acknowledging that we are in a society that is currently unequal. 564 00:26:08,130 --> 00:26:10,530 S2: Then he came back and he said, I said using 565 00:26:10,530 --> 00:26:13,380 S2: language like the gender card is incredibly problematic, blah, blah, blah. 566 00:26:13,380 --> 00:26:16,410 S2: We're 100 years away from gender equality. And then I 567 00:26:16,410 --> 00:26:19,440 S2: mentioned that I can see in his display picture you 568 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:22,560 S2: have a beautiful young girl with you. You need to 569 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:26,310 S2: be an ally so she can experience equality in her lifetime. 570 00:26:26,310 --> 00:26:28,530 S2: It's not about men versus women. It's about paving a 571 00:26:28,530 --> 00:26:32,910 S2: path to equality for future generations. Now, I assume this 572 00:26:32,910 --> 00:26:34,919 S2: is an assumption, but I think also by his reply, 573 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,020 S2: it is probably a fair response to assume that it 574 00:26:37,020 --> 00:26:39,300 S2: is his daughter. So he has got. And this is 575 00:26:39,300 --> 00:26:43,070 S2: what kills me. It's like you are raising a woman 576 00:26:43,070 --> 00:26:45,679 S2: who is going to go into this society, and you, 577 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:50,390 S2: as a white male, have an opportunity to help make change. Yeah. 578 00:26:51,260 --> 00:26:53,690 S2: So then he said, the young lady in the picture 579 00:26:53,690 --> 00:26:57,110 S2: is a free thinker, accepts her strengths, and doesn't blame 580 00:26:57,109 --> 00:27:01,610 S2: her weaknesses or other factors on her gender. That 14 581 00:27:01,609 --> 00:27:04,760 S2: year old seems to be 100 years ahead of yourself 582 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:08,630 S2: and doesn't seek being virtuous as her escape. She's her 583 00:27:08,630 --> 00:27:13,070 S2: own person. Now, obviously that was very infuriating to read 584 00:27:13,070 --> 00:27:16,189 S2: that response. I can sit here and say I have 585 00:27:16,190 --> 00:27:19,460 S2: felt discrimination within a workplace, right, as a woman, but 586 00:27:19,460 --> 00:27:21,350 S2: I am not a person of color. There are so 587 00:27:21,350 --> 00:27:25,940 S2: many other marginalized groups in Australia that have experienced much 588 00:27:25,940 --> 00:27:28,700 S2: more discrimination than I have, so I can only speak 589 00:27:28,700 --> 00:27:31,670 S2: from my own experience. But what I am so sick 590 00:27:31,670 --> 00:27:35,300 S2: of is this group of people that say we play 591 00:27:35,300 --> 00:27:38,540 S2: the gender card, that put, that say that we are 592 00:27:38,540 --> 00:27:40,850 S2: being we're not being victims. If I was a victim, 593 00:27:40,850 --> 00:27:42,500 S2: do you think we would have built this company we 594 00:27:42,500 --> 00:27:44,780 S2: have built? We have said we are going to pave 595 00:27:44,780 --> 00:27:47,510 S2: this path. We are going to go against the odds. 596 00:27:47,660 --> 00:27:49,790 S2: I couldn't see me, but we're going to try. And, 597 00:27:49,790 --> 00:27:52,520 S2: you know, that's very fucking important to us in the 598 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:55,520 S2: work that we do. But I am just so sick 599 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:58,580 S2: of this. Stop playing the gender card shit, because it 600 00:27:58,580 --> 00:28:02,450 S2: is a very, very privileged position to be in, to 601 00:28:02,450 --> 00:28:06,950 S2: have never felt discrimination and decide that because it does 602 00:28:06,950 --> 00:28:10,369 S2: not impact you. To have the privilege to put your 603 00:28:10,369 --> 00:28:13,100 S2: head in the sand and say, doesn't happen to be 604 00:28:13,100 --> 00:28:16,699 S2: so it doesn't exist, that is such a and to 605 00:28:16,700 --> 00:28:19,100 S2: have a go at me about my maturity, my friend, 606 00:28:19,100 --> 00:28:21,860 S2: you need to have a think about that. And I 607 00:28:21,859 --> 00:28:24,949 S2: just think the more in workplaces we say playing the 608 00:28:24,950 --> 00:28:28,460 S2: gender card, the less women will speak up about discrimination. 609 00:28:28,460 --> 00:28:32,450 S2: And also these people that do not acknowledge that there 610 00:28:32,450 --> 00:28:34,970 S2: is inequality because there is a large group of people 611 00:28:34,970 --> 00:28:36,530 S2: that are like, oh, women just don't want to be 612 00:28:36,530 --> 00:28:39,290 S2: in leadership positions. They just don't want to hack it. 613 00:28:39,290 --> 00:28:41,959 S2: They just decide not to. They don't want to do it. 614 00:28:42,230 --> 00:28:44,110 S2: They want to work at home like all that shit. 615 00:28:44,110 --> 00:28:47,560 S2: All those beliefs right there. The people putting their heads 616 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,150 S2: in the sand. And I'm so sick of it. Every 617 00:28:49,150 --> 00:28:52,360 S2: time we speak, like right now, I am ranting to 618 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:56,800 S2: our beautiful community who are majority female and our male listeners, 619 00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:00,610 S2: progressive listeners. Right. And it's every time we talk about this, 620 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,850 S2: we're speaking to people that are experiencing it, not to 621 00:29:03,850 --> 00:29:05,650 S2: the people that need to change. And what is so 622 00:29:05,650 --> 00:29:09,160 S2: difficult is for this person, their heads in the sand, 623 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:12,160 S2: they any time inequality comes up, they are going to 624 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:15,280 S2: be the person that in the workplace they tune straight out. 625 00:29:15,430 --> 00:29:17,890 S2: They don't even think about the fact that hang on, 626 00:29:17,890 --> 00:29:20,020 S2: maybe if I learnt a little bit more about this, 627 00:29:20,020 --> 00:29:22,540 S2: I could put myself in their in those shoes, I 628 00:29:22,540 --> 00:29:23,890 S2: could help. And you know what? You don't have to 629 00:29:23,890 --> 00:29:27,610 S2: change the world, whatever, but just don't detract from the world. 630 00:29:27,790 --> 00:29:30,100 S2: And if you don't acknowledge it, how are you going 631 00:29:30,100 --> 00:29:32,620 S2: to learn about your subconscious bias if you never even 632 00:29:32,620 --> 00:29:35,770 S2: educate yourself on your first the bias that exists. But 633 00:29:35,770 --> 00:29:37,840 S2: it's all these things that I just feel like that 634 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:41,440 S2: men putting their head in the sand and saying that 635 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:44,710 S2: there is no inequality and that it's in our heads, 636 00:29:44,710 --> 00:29:46,930 S2: it goes back into the thing that all women are crazy. 637 00:29:46,930 --> 00:29:50,920 S2: Like that type of mentality. It drives me fucking mad. 638 00:29:51,070 --> 00:29:55,540 S2: And I just and especially I just, I just actually 639 00:29:55,540 --> 00:29:58,360 S2: I cannot and I'm just it's exhausting because it's like 640 00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:00,190 S2: I was like, do I go back again to this person? 641 00:30:00,190 --> 00:30:02,230 S2: I'm like, no, I don't I've had enough energy on 642 00:30:02,230 --> 00:30:07,090 S2: this Bananarama on my Instagram page. Also, don't follow me. 643 00:30:07,090 --> 00:30:08,770 S2: I don't want him on my page. You don't deserve 644 00:30:08,770 --> 00:30:10,840 S2: my content, you know, but I just. Anyway, I'm just 645 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,540 S2: so sick of people putting their head in the sand 646 00:30:13,540 --> 00:30:17,080 S2: because they are so privileged that they have never experienced 647 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:19,420 S2: it when they are the ones that need to help 648 00:30:19,420 --> 00:30:22,700 S2: make the change and change our belief system. So anyway. 649 00:30:22,730 --> 00:30:23,510 S1: Hear, hear! Lucy. 650 00:30:23,870 --> 00:30:24,590 S2: Hear, hear. 651 00:30:25,010 --> 00:30:29,360 S1: And may I finish with very quickly on said posts? 652 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:33,890 S1: Thank you for everyone who was so beautiful and supportive 653 00:30:33,890 --> 00:30:36,740 S1: on everything that we do put out there. As business 654 00:30:36,740 --> 00:30:39,320 S1: leaders and women. We appreciate you, we love you and 655 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:40,970 S1: we do see your comments too. Yeah we do, but 656 00:30:40,970 --> 00:30:42,260 S1: this was particularly infuriating. 657 00:30:42,260 --> 00:30:43,880 S2: We love you. We love you guys. 658 00:30:44,180 --> 00:30:49,930 S6: Stop it you. What is it? Time for a special share. 659 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:54,670 S2: Share. Hello there. Why are we hollowing again? We're already here. 660 00:30:54,670 --> 00:30:58,360 S2: Weird weird weird weird. Every time. Okay. Steffi, what have 661 00:30:58,360 --> 00:30:59,500 S2: you got for us? 662 00:30:59,500 --> 00:31:02,500 S1: Well, I know what you've got. And I figured, okay, 663 00:31:02,500 --> 00:31:04,000 S1: I would jump on that bandwagon. 664 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,430 S2: Should I go first then? Yeah. Okay. Okay, guys. So 665 00:31:06,430 --> 00:31:08,530 S2: I have a sick obsession with something. And, I mean, 666 00:31:08,530 --> 00:31:11,020 S2: it's not. It's not a bad obsession. It's just like, 667 00:31:11,020 --> 00:31:13,120 S2: I feel like at this point, it's on. Thing I'm 668 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,700 S2: about to say is in my blood because it's. It's 669 00:31:15,700 --> 00:31:18,100 S2: probably because, you know, we are what we eat. And 670 00:31:18,100 --> 00:31:20,920 S2: I am currently eating ten times a week. I'll kick 671 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:25,060 S2: enchilada dynamic meal and I just I can't even explain 672 00:31:25,060 --> 00:31:27,460 S2: how much joy this meal brings me. 673 00:31:27,460 --> 00:31:28,120 S1: It's really good. 674 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,030 S2: I absolutely love it. So it's in our we have 675 00:31:31,030 --> 00:31:33,930 S2: a partnership with dynamic where we have got our most 676 00:31:33,930 --> 00:31:36,300 S2: popular cake recipes we've made into ready made meals, which 677 00:31:36,330 --> 00:31:39,750 S2: obviously we're so proud of and excited about. And the 678 00:31:39,750 --> 00:31:43,920 S2: enchilada it has. I mean, I start laughing, I can't 679 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:48,390 S2: even start. You're drooling.
