No one expects it like I 130 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: used to just doing it. 131 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 2: So tell us more about your running career and tell 132 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,279 Speaker 2: us about what a day in the life would look 133 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 2: like when you were training, you know, for an important event. 134 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I guess my running career actually started when 135 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: I was six and up until about twelve, thirteen years old, 136 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: I was running and then I quit until so it's 137 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: at for six years, I just didn't even look at 138 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: a track. And it wasn't until in twenty twelve, you know, 139 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: my last year of high school. And I think any 140 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: Aussie knows. You know, you go from fifteen to eighteen 141 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 1: pretty much just going out with a fake ID and drinking. 142 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: And I can promise you that's all I did in 143 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:43,239 Speaker 1: high school. And I see on the news that Rio 144 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: will be the host city for the twenty sixteen Olympic Games, 145 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: and I literally just dropped everything then and there, and 146 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: I was like, okay, I'm going to those Olympic Games. 147 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 1: And I called my old coach and just said, hey, 148 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: what do you think about twenty sixteen Olympics And he 149 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 1: was like, well, you better get to the track first. 150 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I haven't seen you in six years. And 151 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: sure enough, it was kind of crazy because we, you know, 152 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: we started in twenty twelve, made the World Junior's team 153 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: off of like two months training and like the rest 154 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: is just kind of history, right, But I guess the 155 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: day in the life of Morgan, it's pretty intense. When 156 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: I'm full, like in full training mode, it's like wake 157 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 1: up at six, get your green tea, and write down 158 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: your goals, eat brecky, hopefully have enough time to like 159 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: take the dog for a walk or whatever, and then 160 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 1: I'm out the door ready for training at eight eight 161 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: thirty and that's straight onto the track, and then straight 162 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 1: after that at eleven, I'll be into the gym. After 163 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: that I'm trying to you know, tee up with a 164 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 1: friend for coffee or answer emails for that day that 165 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 1: I've gotten from my manager. And then at night it's 166 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,959 Speaker 1: just like a nice long eight to ten k job, 167 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 1: depending on how I'm feeling. And that's kind of almost 168 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 1: day in, day out, depending on what my coach wants 169 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: for training.

And 337 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: I just think it's so important because, to be honest, 338 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: women get women and sometimes I don't know if you've 339 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: been through it, but men just don't really want to 340 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,880 Speaker 1: understand women and you're always butting heads, so I don't 341 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: have any time to waste screw itt. 342 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 2: Wow, I absolutely love that, and like, I know, I 343 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 2: completely get you. Like even in my own business at 344 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 2: Naked Harvest, our team is mostly females, and my brother, 345 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 2: who co owns a company, he's like, can we stop 346 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 2: just and I'm like, females do it better. And I 347 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 2: think I also think that's quite important for you to 348 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,199 Speaker 2: touch on that because you know, I think sport is 349 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:56,240 Speaker 2: such a male dominant industry and oh, like you said, 350 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 2: like your whole team was full of males, and I 351 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 2: think that's also quite important for you in regards to 352 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 2: having a team of women and you know, supporting them 353 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 2: and that way, and obviously you know it works for 354 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 2: you and your team and that sort of side of things. 355 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 2: But yeah, thanks for touching on that. It's super insiteful. 356 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you. 357 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 2: Well, before we move on and switch gears, i'd love 358 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:25,360 Speaker 2: to just get a little a little insight. So obviously 359 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:29,879 Speaker 2: you're an amazing inspirational athlete, and like you said, there 360 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,160 Speaker 2: are so many amazing things to it, but I'm sure 361 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 2: there's also some hard parts. So what is kind of 362 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 2: your favorite thing about being an athlete? And then what 363 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 2: is the hardest part about being an athlete? 364 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 1: Oh, I think my favorite part definitely obviously like running 365 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,439 Speaker 1: PBS and making teams that have to be my favorite 366 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: part is just like, oh god, it's a whole thing 367 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 1: from yeh, running fast. Then you because you've run fast, 368 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:55,400 Speaker 1: you get to make a team. Because you made a team, 369 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: you get to go, you know, to the Bahamas or 370 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,679 Speaker 1: China or Germany or wherever that major championship is. And 371 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 1: then you get to like experience different cultures, which is 372 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 1: so important to learn how other people think and feel 373 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 1: and speak and act. So that's probably a pretty broad answer. 374 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:17,200 Speaker 1: There's not just one thing I love, but I would 375 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 1: definitely say the hardest part is just the criticism you 376 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 1: receive just even from stepping out there. You don't even 377 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 1: have to begin running and someone will already be commenting 378 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:29,679 Speaker 1: on your body, you know what I mean. So for me, 379 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,199 Speaker 1: it's just like the hardest part is dealing with the 380 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 1: armchair critics that know nothing about track unless it's the 381 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,160 Speaker 1: Olympics and everyone's an expert. So yeah, I think that's 382 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 1: something I've struggled with. But I think I'm getting better 383 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: at as I get older. I just know how to 384 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: manage it and how to manage my emotions and not 385 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 1: let everything get to me. But yeah, I've had some 386 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,640 Speaker 1: completely heartbreaking moments where people just take like they suck 387 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:52,920 Speaker 1: the fun out of it, right, and then it's kind 388 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 1: of like, well, shit, why do I represent Australia If 389 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 1: Australia doesn't even want to get around me or other 390 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 1: athletes because of the way I look in at Crop 391 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 1: Top and Undies. It's just wild. 392 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, almost it's ridiculous, isn't it. 393 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 1: It can be heartbreaking for sure, Yeah, just like it 394 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 1: just doesn't make sense in my mind. 395 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 2: And so let's talk about that, because, like you said, like, 396 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 2: you know, you're out there, you're ready to race, you're 397 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 2: ready to run, you know, and you're an athlete, like 398 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 2: that is your job. And then for someone to criticize 399 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 2: you and talk about your body, it almost seems like 400 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 2: so left field. But also I feel like we're very 401 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 2: used to that in our culture and in the media. 402 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 2: Can you kind of chat about this aspect of you know, 403 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 2: body criticism and how you feel about it and how 404 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 2: you deal about it. I remember reading an article where 405 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 2: you did speak about this, and you did speak so 406 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 2: beautifully about it. 407 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, So I think I'd have to be start 408 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: off by being honest. And I think growing up we've 409 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 1: all experienced we've all bullied, and we've all been bullied. 410 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 1: And I'll admit, like when I was younger, I you know, 411 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: I kind of still want big boobs, but you know, 412 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: i'd be really jealous of girls that had bigger rest 413 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: of me, or you know, a smaller waist or longer hair. 414 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 1: And you just attack people for things that you don't have, 415 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: and it's not until it actually happens to you that 416 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 1: you know. As I got older, I'm like, wow, I 417 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 1: just can't talk about women the way that other people 418 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,159 Speaker 1: talk about me because it's just horrible, right. And I 419 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: battled so much throughout my career with body weight and 420 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 1: all the issues around that, because when I'm in the 421 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: off season, I'd allow myself to gain eight kilos literally 422 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: in two weeks because I'm in off season, like I 423 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: don't have to work, and then I'd get back into 424 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 1: season and if I have one bad race, people are 425 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: commenting on my body. If I have one good race, 426 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:48,920 Speaker 1: they're like, oh, you know, she could lose a little 427 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:50,359 Speaker 1: bit of weight, but she still ran fast, which she 428 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: doesn't make sense. And it got to the point and 429 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,159 Speaker 1: I'm not even joking where oh my gosh, I'm actually 430 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 1: like Jesus, I'm like kind of cheering up. But it 431 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 1: got to the point where I would have to go 432 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 1: in for being my test once every four weeks because 433 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 1: of certain people that I had to deal with within 434 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,880 Speaker 1: athletics in OZ and it just got to the point 435 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 1: I get in there, the biomech dude would be in 436 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:13,920 Speaker 1: there and I'd just start crying in front of him, 437 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 1: like shaking, too scared to go onto their scales because 438 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 1: more people were concerned with my image than my performance. 439 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 1: And I just thought, you know, once I started my 440 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,479 Speaker 1: new team. My new coach has been so amazing. She's like, 441 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,880 Speaker 1: I couldn't care what you look like. All I need 442 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:31,679 Speaker 1: you to do is rock up to the track and 443 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:33,919 Speaker 1: hit the times I give you. And so it's kind 444 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,359 Speaker 1: of nice when they actually give you back a little 445 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: bit of you know, they hold you accountable and like, 446 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 1: just hit my times, nothing else matters. Then you do 447 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,199 Speaker 1: start to think, okay, cool, I can eat healthy, I 448 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 1: can do this. I'm not gonna want to stress it 449 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 1: or whatever, and you kind of just get back to 450 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,199 Speaker 1: athletics because you want to run fast, not because it's 451 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 1: the Victoria's Secret fashion show. And that was just huge 452 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 1: for me. I'm like, yeah, I don't care what I 453 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 1: look like as long as I'm running fast. I mean, 454 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:00,399 Speaker 1: is anyone going to worry if I do? When the 455 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 1: Olympics and I have cell You're like, no, they're gonna 456 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:06,400 Speaker 1: be like, damn, you want a gold medal. Who gives 457 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: a shit what she looks like. But you know, I 458 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 1: feel like we struggle so much because, especially being a woman, 459 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 1: it's just like, I don't know, it's like you're always 460 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:17,399 Speaker 1: in it. I'm always in a crop top and undies. 461 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,159 Speaker 1: It's always a summer sport, so you always see me 462 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: in a bikini, which just opens a floodgate for people 463 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 1: to say what they want. It's really tough. 464 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I could only imagine. And I think I think also, 465 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 2: like like you said about feeling like, you know, this 466 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 2: is your sport, this is what you love to do, 467 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 2: and then having to come at it with looking a 468 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 2: certain ways just like that. Yeah, like I can't I 469 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:48,639 Speaker 2: can't even fathom that, especially already having the pressure, yeah, 470 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,640 Speaker 2: of making the times and then to look good. It's 471 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 2: just it's ridiculous. It's ridiculous, the pressure. 472 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 1: It's just insane. Like, but now I like, because I've 473 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 1: always had, you know, like one of my flaws, I 474 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: guess I would say it's just to sell. You're like, 475 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,919 Speaker 1: I get under my bum right, But now I'm kind 476 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 1: of like mad who cares. Like it's kind of. 477 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:11,199 Speaker 2: Just yeah, we all have we all have that, And 478 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:14,719 Speaker 2: I think that's a huge testament to you having that 479 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:18,199 Speaker 2: transformation in the way you think, because I you know, 480 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 2: I think we can all agree as young women going 481 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,880 Speaker 2: through that sort of stage in your life where you're 482 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 2: so conscious about how you look and how other people 483 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 2: perceive you, and then just getting to the point where 484 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,639 Speaker 2: you're just like, what am I doing? And why do 485 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 2: I care so much? And especially it's so it's so disappointing, 486 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,880 Speaker 2: especially because it's not like it's a health thing for you, 487 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 2: because you know, you're clearly running fast and like you said, 488 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 2: like winning gold medals, like it shouldn't matter what its 489 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 2: like you look like. But it's such like it's such 490 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,640 Speaker 2: like a testament to the not a testament, but it's 491 00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 2: the typical sort of patriarch thing that oh no, she 492 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 2: also has to look good, like yeah, outrageous. 493 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 1: It just yeah, and it like I used to be 494 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,959 Speaker 1: obsessed with it, honestly, it was just so unhealthy. But 495 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 1: now I just think, Okay, I have both young male 496 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 1: and female training partners who are going through that hormonal change, 497 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: you know, with their bodies, girls getting their periods, boys 498 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,880 Speaker 1: are growing really quick and they're always injured or whatever, 499 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 1: and I just think I can't let them see me 500 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: worry about my body and what I look like. I 501 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 1: have to be really open and honest with Okay, this 502 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 1: is just what I'm going to look like today. Okay, 503 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 1: I've got my period, I bloat a lot, I gained 504 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:37,199 Speaker 1: two kilos I'm gonna be a little bit sluggish and 505 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: just kind of rolling with it, because that's if I 506 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 1: can just honestly overcome that. It's just one less thing 507 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 1: I have to worry about. And I want, you know, 508 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 1: the kids in my squad to look at me and 509 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,360 Speaker 1: be like, oh, Morgan doesn't care. Why should I care? Like, yeah, 510 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 1: why should you care? Just be happy? No. 511 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 2: I absolutely love that, and I love that you said that, 512 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,679 Speaker 2: like you need to be a good role model and 513 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 2: kind of lead by example in that way, because it 514 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,400 Speaker 2: is so true. If we don't sort of take a stand, 515 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 2: then nothing's going to change. And I really love you 516 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 2: have a highlight on your Instagram with this amazing quote 517 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 2: that says, I don't care if I'm aesthetically pleasing, I 518 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,440 Speaker 2: just want to run fast. And I just don't love 519 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 2: that so much because it's just so true. 520 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: And like so many people just need to understand that 521 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:27,680 Speaker 1: as well, you know what I mean, Because at the 522 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 1: end of the day, we've all got flaws, So it's like, 523 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 1: who am I to attack someone else when there are 524 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 1: things that I wish I could change about my body, 525 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, not one person is perfect, 526 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 1: and that's a beauty in it. So but yeah, it's 527 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 1: kind of nice. It only took our ears out of 528 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 1: my career to get to this point. 529 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:51,159 Speaker 2: Jesus No, I totally a feel you. I have like 530 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 2: a kind of a very similar history with where I'm 531 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 2: like looking back and thinking, holy shit, I wasted so 532 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 2: much time and energy on what I look like and 533 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 2: it was just such a bloody waste. But I think 534 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 2: it's you know, it's a lesson we all need to learn, 535 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 2: and how amazing that we've already learned it and we're 536 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:11,120 Speaker 2: you know, survering on. 537 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:12,919 Speaker 1: Okay. 538 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 2: So, Morgan, we've chatted about you being an athlete and 539 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:20,160 Speaker 2: also body image. I would love to touch on your 540 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:23,639 Speaker 2: plant based diet, so I know that you eat a 541 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 2: plant based and I also saw you in the Game 542 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:31,359 Speaker 2: Changes documentary. Congratulations, Thank you. Can you tell us a 543 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,160 Speaker 2: little bit about your journey with veganism. 544 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:41,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I became vegan about five years ago, just before Christmas, right, 545 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:46,360 Speaker 1: like my mum was, yeah, the say it. And it 546 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:48,879 Speaker 1: was actually an ex at the time was he was 547 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 1: just so into his health and wellness and one day 548 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 1: he walks and he's like, we need to go vegan. 549 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 1: I think I was just so sick of hearing all 550 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 1: these different diets. I was like, Okay, cool, you know, 551 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 1: I'll do it. But for me, like I've never really 552 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,679 Speaker 1: liked eggs, I don't. I don't think I really had 553 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 1: a lot of dairy anyway, Like I'm not cheese ubceessed 554 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 1: or anything. And I only really ate chicken and fish 555 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,119 Speaker 1: anyway in the occasional burger. So for me, it was 556 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:16,120 Speaker 1: kind of an easy transition, right. And again, it took 557 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 1: me so long to get used to the vegan diet, 558 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: but it wasn't until I found my first Dietitian Lucy, 559 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:24,400 Speaker 1: that she just completely changed my outlook. Like I didn't 560 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 1: realize I never ate beans until becoming vegan, Like beans 561 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 1: just weren't on the menu for me. Ever, obviously learned 562 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:35,439 Speaker 1: what tofu was, and you know, lentils and satan and 563 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: all that stuff. So yeah, it was kind of it 564 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 1: was a long journey, but you know, good things have 565 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: come out of it, like the game changes, and to 566 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 1: be honest, that was just I look back now and 567 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: I'm like, WHOA, because we shot in twenty sixteen. I 568 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 1: was twenty one when we shot, I know, So I 569 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 1: watched the movie and I'm like what the fuck. 570 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 2: I think come about? 571 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: So it was actually piece.

I would say for me, 612 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 1: the number one thing was a recovery like I couldn't believe, 613 00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 1: you know, I was waking up. I wasn't sore right, 614 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 1: like I wouldn't need to ice, but I wouldn't need massages. 615 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 1: I could just keep going all day. And another one 616 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: like another one. I like try to tell people about 617 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 1: is I used to get tonsualidis. Oh I glandular fever 618 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 1: in twenty twelve. I got tonsilides probably twice a year 619 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 1: from twenty ten up until about up until going vegan. 620 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 1: And I'm not even joking when I say I haven't 621 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 1: been six since, like no word of a lie. I 622 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,520 Speaker 1: have not been six since. I haven't had tonsliders since. 623 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 1: So I think there was obviously something in either like 624 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 1: the meat or whatever I was eating that was just 625 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 1: screwing up my system and just the immune system. Yeah, 626 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: and so yeah, they're probably the two things. Is like 627 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 1: I'm never sick, my recovery is insane, and my skin 628 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 1: is just so clear.

I'm 656 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 1: pretty simple, like I just do it because I really 657 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: don't like cooking, and I can't even like because my 658 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 1: friends would actually pull me up if I said I 659 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 1: love it. But if I'm not getting a Salara meal, 660 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 1: which is just those ready homemade ones, I'd probably just 661 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 1: do two blueberry bagels or two pieces of rye toast 662 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 1: with peanut butter, banana and maple syrup and blueberries. I'm 663 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 1: such a smoothie person, but I'm also so boring, like 664 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: I have the exact same smoothie because I get everything 665 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 1: I need and then I do so bananas, blueberries, spinach, chear, seeds, 666 00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 1: water and dates. I don't really like to do plant 667 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 1: based milks, just because I'm trying to keep it a 668 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:58,000 Speaker 1: little bit more lighter. For lunch, I'm my dietician is 669 00:33:58,000 --> 00:33:59,720 Speaker 1: going to be like, I love your honesty, but we 670 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 1: need to I usually because I'm always training or going 671 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 1: in between sessions and I'm in the city, I'd probably 672 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 1: just stop somewhere and get lunch. So I probably just 673 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 1: go for like a tofu salad or usually a burrita 674 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 1: or a heavy sandwich if I'm actually lifting in the 675 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,960 Speaker 1: gym at in the afternoon, because I just get so 676 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 1: so hungry. I'm always with a coffee or like I 677 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 1: will try and find you know, vegan cross on or 678 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 1: cookie just because I'm feeling sorry for myself and I 679 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 1: need a treat. And then dinner I'm obsessed with, like 680 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 1: you know, Pastors Berger night, They're probably two of my favorites, 681 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 1: or just like a homemade fried rice and vegan dumplings. 682 00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 1: I love, love, love dumplings. So yeah, like I try 683 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,400 Speaker 1: to keep it flexible, but I'm also pretty boring. Like 684 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,400 Speaker 1: once I'm in season, I just try to keep everything 685 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,719 Speaker 1: the same because I know what works. And then when 686 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 1: I'm oh my gosh, when I'm in off season, it's 687 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 1: like glass of champagne for breakfast. I'm just kidding kind of, don't. 688 00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:58,439 Speaker 1: It depends how deep into off season. I actually learned 689 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,160 Speaker 1: how good that was on my Europe trip two years ago. 690 00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 3: I love so I'm for this, yeah, but I would 691 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 3: probably I do like a massive breakfast burrito with hash Browns. 692 00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 2: This episode is brought to you by Naked Harvest Supplements, 693 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 2: the natural supplement company I co founded with my brother. 694 00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 2: This company was really brought to life because I have 695 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:31,520 Speaker 2: been using supplements for such a long time since the 696 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:35,400 Speaker 2: start of my fitness journey.

Sorry guys, Me and Morgan just had a 724 00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 2: tech issue, but she was going to finish her what 725 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:32,840 Speaker 2: she eats. Oh yeah, part of about the champagne at breakfast. 726 00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:36,080 Speaker 1: Yeah that is so good. But yeah, like I'm such 727 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:39,040 Speaker 1: a big, big breakfast burrito girl. Sometimes I'll have to 728 00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 1: at my favorite place in Phoenix It's called Nami. But yeah, 729 00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 1: so after that, I love like biscuits and gravy donut 730 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 1: and coffee for dinner. Like I'm not a huge pizza person, 731 00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: so I probably go back to like burgers or you know, 732 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:56,279 Speaker 1: like Mexican Night with the girls. But for me, it's 733 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:58,359 Speaker 1: just like when I'm in off season, I just love 734 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 1: eating out with friends and then just like ordering every 735 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,480 Speaker 1: single appetizer and then like four main meals and just 736 00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:08,439 Speaker 1: going to town. So yeah, like, but that's a thing. 737 00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:11,719 Speaker 1: Like my favorite Mexican play is Village canteena where I'm 738 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 1: in Melbourne, Like in Meraville, I'd literally get because I 739 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,960 Speaker 1: have a vegan menu. I do like the burrito, two 740 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:21,400 Speaker 1: of their tacos and a cassadia right, and people are like, 741 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 1: are you seriously going to eat that? Don't look at me, 742 00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 1: don't judge me. I've only got two yeah, two to 743 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 1: four weeks to be who I am. Let me live. 744 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 2: And so with the whole eating with your off season 745 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:40,759 Speaker 2: and on season, why does the diet have to be 746 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:43,800 Speaker 2: so considerably different. Is it just because you are running 747 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 2: every single day? 748 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:48,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's that. And it's definitely like just trying to 749 00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:50,319 Speaker 1: get the right fuel in and making sure I'm eating 750 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:53,279 Speaker 1: my veggies and getting enough of the right calves and 751 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 1: all of that, because it really does show on the 752 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:57,719 Speaker 1: track if I'm you know, if I do have a 753 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,040 Speaker 1: night out. I mean, obviously alcohol's a little different, but 754 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:02,359 Speaker 1: if I have just been eating fries for that week, 755 00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 1: I just I'm living off of oils and carbs, like 756 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 1: fats and carbs and it's just so totally never going 757 00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 1: to work out for me, especially the older I get. 758 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:12,560 Speaker 1: So I do try to keep things a little bit 759 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:16,120 Speaker 1: more you know, organic, a bit more fresh and all 760 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:18,879 Speaker 1: of that stuff. And I think for me, it's like, yes, 761 00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,000 Speaker 1: I love to eat healthy, but when it is a 762 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 1: part of your job and you've been doing it for 763 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,440 Speaker 1: so long, as soon as I get a sniff of 764 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:26,160 Speaker 1: off season, I'm just like, see. 765 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 2: Yah, ready for the good food. 766 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:34,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, and especially you know what Australia is like in summer, 767 00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 1: Oh my god, and we have night noodle markets and 768 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,719 Speaker 1: food and wine festivals. It's, oh my gosh, just so easy, 769 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:42,680 Speaker 1: so good. No. 770 00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:48,040 Speaker 2: I love that you're a foodie. I'm a total FRUITI Yeah. 771 00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:51,880 Speaker 2: So let's talk about your goals and what you do. Obviously, 772 00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:55,760 Speaker 2: you have achieved so much at such a young age, 773 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 2: and obviously it's not by coincidence or chance. You work 774 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:03,520 Speaker 2: very hard. But at the start you did mention about 775 00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:06,719 Speaker 2: visualizing your goals and you have a whole goals process. 776 00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 2: I would love to hear more about that. I'm a 777 00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:11,279 Speaker 2: bit of a like a nerd, but that sort of 778 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:12,000 Speaker 2: side of things. 779 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,800 Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, about my like my future goals or 780 00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:15,759 Speaker 1: how I go about it. 781 00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 2: So when you're you know, preparing for a race, or 782 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 2: you do have quite a big goal, like going to 783 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:24,480 Speaker 2: the Olympics, I know you spoke about like visualization, what 784 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:25,720 Speaker 2: does that look like for you? 785 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:28,440 Speaker 1: So for me, it's probably more so drawing. I love 786 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:31,200 Speaker 1: like pictures, and like I like to actually be visual 787 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:33,719 Speaker 1: and to see what I want. So yeah, I've got 788 00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:35,600 Speaker 1: like this little dream book that I have. Well it's 789 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,040 Speaker 1: kind of just it's like an art scrap book, but 790 00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:40,840 Speaker 1: I call it a little dream book, and I'll like 791 00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 1: I'll stick photos in there of things that I want 792 00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:46,880 Speaker 1: to achieve and want to do. But especially in the 793 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 1: Olympic here, it's just honestly like meditation every single night 794 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:53,920 Speaker 1: of me playing over playing the race over and over 795 00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 1: in my head, and that just seems to work because 796 00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 1: it's like your mind starts to trick itself into thinking, Okay, 797 00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:01,600 Speaker 1: this is exactly what she wants. She wants to go 798 00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 1: out decently hard, like quite hard, and then she wants 799 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,520 Speaker 1: to relax down the back straight and come home strong. 800 00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 1: When I was running in the four hundred, and honestly 801 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:11,839 Speaker 1: every race it was just like clockwork because I'd been 802 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 1: dreaming it for what was it, maybe twelve to sixteen 803 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:19,360 Speaker 1: weeks straight. But for me, it's just like it's definitely 804 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:21,719 Speaker 1: that dream book. Oh my gosh, the things that are 805 00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:24,279 Speaker 1: in it and the things that I've done. It's like, 806 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,719 Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen, I had fourteen different things that I 807 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 1: wanted to tick off, and I literally did twelve out 808 00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:34,480 Speaker 1: of the fourteen. So yeah, that's why I just think 809 00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:39,800 Speaker 1: it's so important to visualize it. Insane. Yeah, it scared 810 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:42,000 Speaker 1: me though, to be honest, I was like, whoa, Oh 811 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 1: my god, Like, what is this? 812 00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:48,440 Speaker 2: No, I think that's insane, And that's such like obviously 813 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 2: in a testament to the hard work. But having that 814 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:55,799 Speaker 2: vision and I'm like, I'm throffing right now because I'm 815 00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:58,919 Speaker 2: here on my computer and I've got a vision board 816 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:03,640 Speaker 2: behind it, and I'm someone who I love to sit 817 00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:07,879 Speaker 2: and meditate and really hold that.

And I read on your 878 00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:30,520 Speaker 2: Instagram you said staying silent means staying put, and I'm 879 00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:34,520 Speaker 2: sick of staying put. I absolutely love this line, and 880 00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 2: I just wanted to ask you how you felt and 881 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:40,799 Speaker 2: sort of your journey with coming to terms with this. 882 00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:46,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I think obviously earlier in the year, especially 883 00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:48,880 Speaker 1: like the George Floyd thing just you know, ignited the 884 00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:52,080 Speaker 1: whole world. And in terms of that quote, it was 885 00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:55,160 Speaker 1: kind of just like, there are so many small, different 886 00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:57,799 Speaker 1: things throughout my life that I've had to experience from 887 00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 1: being half black that are just so unfair. And it 888 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:04,319 Speaker 1: wasn't until you've got you know, you kind of you 889 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:06,640 Speaker 1: made it feel like you're the only one experiencing it 890 00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:09,040 Speaker 1: and you can't really open up to anyone. And it 891 00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:11,840 Speaker 1: wasn't until those protests where you do see hundreds of 892 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:14,320 Speaker 1: thousands of people coming out with their stories, and that 893 00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 1: was the thing I thought far out, like, now's the 894 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:18,400 Speaker 1: time to actually speak up, like I'm not scared anymore 895 00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:20,839 Speaker 1: because there are others out there like me, but who 896 00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:23,279 Speaker 1: are so supportive and just want to see, you know, 897 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:25,960 Speaker 1: change in the world for the better, and like it's 898 00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:29,279 Speaker 1: honestly everywhere. And it's quite hard because people think, oh, 899 00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 1: but you're an Olympian, you've been in a movie, You've 900 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:33,640 Speaker 1: got nothing to worry about. I'm like, well, shit, I've 901 00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:35,880 Speaker 1: still been called d M word. People still stare at 902 00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:38,799 Speaker 1: me when I have to go to events where I'm 903 00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:41,480 Speaker 1: actually the guest speaker, and honestly, it's not until I 904 00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 1: speak and I tell them about my background and where 905 00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:45,960 Speaker 1: I've come from and what I've done that then they 906 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:48,080 Speaker 1: want to actually, you know, include me in their little 907 00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:51,200 Speaker 1: circle or give me their business cards and ask for 908 00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 1: help to promote their business and stuff like that. And 909 00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:55,800 Speaker 1: you just it's very hard to explain to people because 910 00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:57,840 Speaker 1: a lot of people don't experience it, and then you 911 00:46:57,880 --> 00:46:59,600 Speaker 1: talk to a black person about it and they're like, damn, 912 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:01,480 Speaker 1: that's like me as well, Like no one really wants 913 00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:03,799 Speaker 1: to give you the time of day until like, oh shit, 914 00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:06,680 Speaker 1: she's an Olympian, like we better, you know, let's shower 915 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:09,359 Speaker 1: her and everything, and it's like yeah, but I'm also 916 00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:13,279 Speaker 1: a human first, And I mean it's quite tough because 917 00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:15,120 Speaker 1: growing up, I went to a very good primary school 918 00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:18,440 Speaker 1: that was actually very diverse, and my mom, she's white, 919 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:20,680 Speaker 1: but she always taught me like just love from the heart. 920 00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 1: You know, it doesn't matter what people look like. If 921 00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:25,400 Speaker 1: they're nice, you'd be nice back. So it never I 922 00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:29,040 Speaker 1: just never understood why people are so mean to people 923 00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:31,760 Speaker 1: just because of their skin color, Like it literally blows 924 00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:33,920 Speaker 1: my mind. Or they leave them out because of their 925 00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:37,160 Speaker 1: skin color, or you know. I was having this discussion 926 00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:40,759 Speaker 1: with one of the ladies from the Domor Project, who's 927 00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:44,520 Speaker 1: the that's the charity that I've actually aligned myself with. 928 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:46,440 Speaker 1: Not so much of a charity, but it's like an 929 00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:50,799 Speaker 1: education type platform for people to speak on and so 930 00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:53,560 Speaker 1: other people can learn about. And I just said, like, 931 00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:56,399 Speaker 1: it's hard being a woman, but honestly being a black woman. 932 00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:58,640 Speaker 1: It's like people look at you like it's the worst 933 00:47:58,680 --> 00:48:00,479 Speaker 1: thing ever. They're like, oh my gosh, she's a woman 934 00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:02,719 Speaker 1: and she's black, like far out. And I've had that 935 00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:05,200 Speaker 1: a lot in my life, and I'm kind of lucky 936 00:48:05,239 --> 00:48:07,640 Speaker 1: because I have had such a good support system. But 937 00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:10,080 Speaker 1: I'm also quite strong in the sense that I don't 938 00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:12,319 Speaker 1: I just don't think or want to let anyone get 939 00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:14,160 Speaker 1: in my way just because of how they see me, 940 00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:17,680 Speaker 1: you know, versus how I see myself. But it's always 941 00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:20,600 Speaker 1: a really tough topic to speak on because trying to 942 00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:23,680 Speaker 1: get like through to people that necessarily don't want to 943 00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:25,759 Speaker 1: understand or just simply don't get it and don't want 944 00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 1: to get it, it's quite heartbreaking because they don't really 945 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:34,160 Speaker 1: like like it's they just don't know, like the setbacks 946 00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:36,960 Speaker 1: and the tears, and you know, so many events that 947 00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:39,200 Speaker 1: I haven't wanted to go to because I'm scared I'd 948 00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:41,440 Speaker 1: be looked at differently, or if I do go to 949 00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:43,440 Speaker 1: an event, I get called the token black girl, and 950 00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:45,960 Speaker 1: it's like, shit, can I win? Like can I just 951 00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:47,920 Speaker 1: be here to be here? Am I allowed to just 952 00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:50,359 Speaker 1: you know, be a person and not be judged from 953 00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:52,960 Speaker 1: the based on the color of my skin or you 954 00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:55,480 Speaker 1: know whatever it is. So yeah, I mean it's a 955 00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:57,880 Speaker 1: long fight, but I just tell a lot of people, 956 00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:01,520 Speaker 1: you know, look at the LGBTQ community and women's rights. 957 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:03,879 Speaker 1: Look how far they've come. I mean, obviously it took 958 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:06,960 Speaker 1: a long time, but you know they're making progress and 959 00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:10,880 Speaker 1: they're getting somewhere. Why can't we So it is possible. 960 00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:13,719 Speaker 1: You just need a bit of heart. I think for. 961 00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:18,040 Speaker 2: Sure, one hundred percent. I love I love also that 962 00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:23,040 Speaker 2: you spoke about kind of you know, the tokenism about 963 00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:26,160 Speaker 2: showing up at an event. And I think also, I 964 00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:30,239 Speaker 2: think in Australia I've noticed is it's also in the 965 00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:34,360 Speaker 2: sense of not even acknowledging it in the first place. 966 00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:38,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, oh my gosh. That part just kills me. 967 00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:42,200 Speaker 2: Like yeah, and it's like it's a really And then 968 00:49:42,239 --> 00:49:45,880 Speaker 2: so it's a really hard conversation to have because people 969 00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:48,799 Speaker 2: aren't even acknowledging in the first place, and it's it's 970 00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:51,560 Speaker 2: like a bit how can you even say. 971 00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:55,239 Speaker 1: That, yeah, yeah, and then just think it's okay, or 972 00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:57,400 Speaker 1: like the classic one I even hear is oh no, 973 00:49:57,480 --> 00:49:59,240 Speaker 1: I'm allowed to say it. I have a black friend. 974 00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:04,000 Speaker 1: I'm like, what I like that's just like that seriously 975 00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:05,919 Speaker 1: blows my mind. Like if you have a black friend, 976 00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:07,799 Speaker 1: you should be standing up for them, not you know, 977 00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:10,160 Speaker 1: checking around the end word because you have a black friend. 978 00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:13,520 Speaker 1: Like that just makes no sense to me whatsoever. Actually 979 00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:16,360 Speaker 1: use your platform to you know, make a change. And 980 00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:18,960 Speaker 1: but yeah, like we have a long way to go. 981 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:22,200 Speaker 1: I think in Australia, especially with Aboriginal people and their 982 00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:26,480 Speaker 1: culture that like, I've learned so much this year and 983 00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:31,040 Speaker 1: it's just heartbreaking. Like my dad's black, he's from America, 984 00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:33,560 Speaker 1: He's African American. But then I feel like, you know, 985 00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:36,720 Speaker 1: I've got to you know, I've got family over here. 986 00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:39,000 Speaker 1: But then I'm an Australian and I obviously need to 987 00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:41,239 Speaker 1: give back to the Aboriginal culture and want to learn 988 00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:44,400 Speaker 1: more and do better myself, just to be more inclusive 989 00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:46,279 Speaker 1: and learn from them and just see, you know, the 990 00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:48,919 Speaker 1: things that they've gone through. Like you know, don't don't 991 00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:50,799 Speaker 1: hate them for being angry. You've got to ask why 992 00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:54,440 Speaker 1: they're angry. They're not just angry for no reason. So 993 00:50:54,520 --> 00:50:57,360 Speaker 1: Clothing the Gap are doing such an amazing thing with 994 00:50:57,560 --> 00:51:01,040 Speaker 1: raising awareness about Aboriginal culture and you know the fact 995 00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:03,439 Speaker 1: that someone actually owns the Aboriginal flag and the fact 996 00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:05,400 Speaker 1: they want it free so they can actually use it 997 00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:08,839 Speaker 1: on their clothing and whatever have you. It's just even 998 00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:12,040 Speaker 1: that it's like, how does that owner in their heart 999 00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:15,719 Speaker 1: keep the first flag of this country under wraps for 1000 00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:18,120 Speaker 1: no one to use? You have to pay, like Aboriginal 1001 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:20,400 Speaker 1: people have to pay to use it? Are you serious? 1002 00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:22,759 Speaker 1: Like is this seriously what the world we live in? 1003 00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:25,560 Speaker 1: It just blows my mind that people are so selfish. 1004 00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:28,640 Speaker 2: So, yeah, there's just sutrageous, isn't it. 1005 00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:30,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's just so much that needs to be done. 1006 00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:34,279 Speaker 2: So much, And I would love to know you did 1007 00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:38,960 Speaker 2: speak about that education platform that you're now aligned to do. 1008 00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:41,840 Speaker 2: I'd love to know if you.

I really have to stop 1018 00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:07,000 Speaker 1: myself before I judge someone and correct my thinking, right, like, 1019 00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 1: before you judge someone, just kind of think, why are 1020 00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:11,160 Speaker 1: you thinking that way? Why are you thinking that horrible 1021 00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:12,960 Speaker 1: thought just because of the color of their skin, or 1022 00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:15,200 Speaker 1: why do you feel uncomfortable? Like you have no reason, 1023 00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:18,040 Speaker 1: and they're just like it's kind of like you've got 1024 00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:21,359 Speaker 1: to rewire your own brain first to even just take 1025 00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:24,279 Speaker 1: the next few steps and then even bigger steps. It's 1026 00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:28,160 Speaker 1: like signing petitions and asking your friends and looking on 1027 00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 1: the websites and just seeing how you can, you know, 1028 00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:32,319 Speaker 1: do more, how you can help free the flag and 1029 00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:34,840 Speaker 1: kind of just make it more of an inclusive place 1030 00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:37,799 Speaker 1: for everyone. And when I say like inclusive, and I 1031 00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:41,240 Speaker 1: mean safe and safe being that people don't feel awkward 1032 00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:43,920 Speaker 1: when they rock up to events or you know, younger 1033 00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:47,080 Speaker 1: black kids can actually go to parties and sporting events 1034 00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:50,560 Speaker 1: without being looked at weird or you know, told, oh, 1035 00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:52,400 Speaker 1: you're going to win this race because you're black. Like 1036 00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:54,840 Speaker 1: it just none of that should even come into the conversation. 1037 00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:57,279 Speaker 1: Just let them be kids, or you know, let them 1038 00:52:57,280 --> 00:53:00,839 Speaker 1: do their thing freely without being just by the color 1039 00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:03,840 Speaker 1: of their skin. That it's so important because it stays 1040 00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:04,759 Speaker 1: with you forever. 1041 00:53:05,840 --> 00:53:10,200 Speaker 2: Seriously, that is so important.

Or why am I 1045 00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:25,040 Speaker 2: thinking differently of that person and really starting there. 1046 00:53:25,360 --> 00:53:28,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, And like I think it's just also it 1047 00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:30,439 Speaker 1: comes down to vulnerability, Like you're allowed to say, Okay, 1048 00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:33,320 Speaker 1: I've made a few mistakes.

You have been an absolute delight. But 1100 00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:07,520 Speaker 2: to wrap up this interview, another question that I ask 1101 00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:11,560 Speaker 2: all my Season three guests, and I'm here, I'm looking 1102 00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:13,680 Speaker 2: for a bit of a pep talk and I'm sure 1103 00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:14,759 Speaker 2: you'll give us a good one. 1104 00:56:15,120 --> 00:56:15,600 Speaker 1: Oh my god. 1105 00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:20,800 Speaker 2: Basically, get ready for your inner coach to come out. 1106 00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:24,400 Speaker 2: But what do you tell yourself when you're stepping out 1107 00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:27,840 Speaker 2: of your comfort zone into the unknown and it feels 1108 00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:32,040 Speaker 2: very uncomfortable. How do you sort of push yourself to 1109 00:56:32,080 --> 00:56:32,359 Speaker 2: do it? 1110 00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:35,319 Speaker 1: Oh? See, the first thing that came to my mind 1111 00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:40,839 Speaker 1: was like, don't shoot yourself, but I would probably say, oh, 1112 00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:43,279 Speaker 1: that's such a good one. For me. The first thing 1113 00:56:43,320 --> 00:56:49,480 Speaker 1: I've always been told is breathe, breathe, and my mum 1114 00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:51,440 Speaker 1: drilled it into my head, like you just have to 1115 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:53,160 Speaker 1: repeat if you don't know, if you don't try, you 1116 00:56:53,200 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 1: don't know, you know what I mean. So, yes, that's 1117 00:56:57,160 --> 00:57:00,560 Speaker 1: that's weird. Is perfect? Yeah for me, that's that's I mean. 1118 00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:02,360 Speaker 1: I guess I don't know if people want more, but 1119 00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:04,560 Speaker 1: it's just been so easy for me to be like, 1120 00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:06,879 Speaker 1: well shit, I mean, you don't know if you don't 1121 00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:08,399 Speaker 1: try it, so you might as well just get into it. 1122 00:57:09,360 --> 00:57:12,240 Speaker 1: But yet they're always going to start with breathing, for sure, 1123 00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:14,960 Speaker 1: because as soon as you tense up, everything falls to pieces. 1124 00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:17,280 Speaker 1: But if you're in the moment and breathing, I'm just 1125 00:57:17,360 --> 00:57:20,880 Speaker 1: going for it, you know, like life's too short. Especially 1126 00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:23,360 Speaker 1: this year, I think we've all learned just take risks. 1127 00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:26,360 Speaker 1: You've got nothing to lose. So yeah, that's probably what 1128 00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:28,840 Speaker 1: I would say, just plain and simple. I love it. 1129 00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:31,800 Speaker 2: I bloody love it.
