If you have blonde hair, 170 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 1: whatever you want to have, that's your personal choice. Yeah, 171 00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: And I think we need to remember that people that 172 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: want to project their ape, it's like, what do you 173 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 1: want for exactly? I'm totally digressing, by the way, That's 174 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: what I do all the time. We are here to 175 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 1: talk about failures, or we were saying before, like failing forward, 176 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 1: like that well. 177 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 2: I don't like the word failing. I said that in 178 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 2: a previous podcast with you, But I don't like the 179 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 2: word failing. I feel like there's such a negative feeling 180 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 2: around it. But when you said failing forward, I was like, Oh, 181 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 2: I like that. But the way I describe it is falling, 182 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 2: and no matter how many times you fall, you have 183 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 2: to get that up again. So if you can just 184 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 2: know that you're gonna have failues, you're gonna have challenges, 185 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 2: it's just a part of life. The moment we accept that, 186 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 2: it just makes things easier. And when you said before 187 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 2: about Gary V being excited for failure, that is my 188 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 2: husband really. Oh it excites him to fail because he 189 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,319 Speaker 2: knows there's a big lesson or there's something preparing him 190 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 2: for something even bigger. He loves that, and I just 191 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 2: find that so inspiring. I'm not quite there yet. 192 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 1: To get that excited about it, but I do know now. 193 00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 2: I'm so aware that when something challenging is happening, I'm like, Okay, 194 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 2: this is happening for a reason. Either I haven't less 195 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 2: I haven't healed something in the past. There's a lesson 196 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 2: here I need to learn because something big is coming. 197 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: How can I grow through this? Grow through this totally? 198 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 1: And I feel like to have that mentality and to 199 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 1: have that perspective and to have the success that you've got, 200 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 1: you have to have massive tenacity, so like stick ability, 201 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,959 Speaker 1: like no matter what happens, shit, stuff's going to happen, 202 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: I'm going to be okay. So I'm going to go 203 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,079 Speaker 1: back to childhood stuff for a second. 204 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 2: Yea, And lots of stem from our childhood, so let's 205 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 2: start deep totally. 206 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: But I also think that's also where your tenacity, like 207 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: your students, has probably come from. So can you talk 208 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,199 Speaker 1: to me about you know, I've read that your stepdad 209 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 1: spoke down to you and read you really terribly and 210 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: said you were too dumb, too stupid, you would always 211 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 1: be a failure. Yeah, that was a word he used often. 212 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 2: So I feel like that fear of failure on that 213 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 2: word started when I was really really young, and he 214 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 2: was physically abusive as well, But that didn't even touch 215 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,599 Speaker 2: me compared to the emotional side of felis. It's like 216 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 2: you kind of get over that. You know, some people 217 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 2: you have to work through it, but won't go there today. 218 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 2: But the emotional side of being called dumb and saying 219 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 2: you will always be a failure. That that became my truth. 220 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 2: If you were to ask who Ashy Bynes was when 221 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 2: I was sixteen and kicked out at home, I would 222 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 2: say I was dumb, a failure, and I will never 223 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 2: be loved. That's who I define myself with because that's 224 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 2: all I heard for so long, and it really takes 225 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 2: a lot of working on yourself to reframe. And I 226 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 2: didn't want what he said to become my truth, and 227 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 2: it was my truth for a long time, but I 228 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 2: wanted to. I wanted to reframe that story and let 229 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 2: it empower me and prove to myself, not to him, 230 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 2: but prove to myself that I'm not a failure. I 231 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 2: can make something of myself. I will be loved, and 232 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 2: I will work hard, and I will work through all 233 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 2: of that. And I did, but it had to be 234 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 2: a conscious choice. I could have been a victim and 235 00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 2: always said I'm just a failure. This is how someone 236 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 2: threw me a challenge, or I got offered something, I 237 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,199 Speaker 2: would say, Nah, I can't do that. I'm too dumb, 238 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,959 Speaker 2: and I wouldn't even try. I would not even try 239 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 2: to go for a job or meet someone to do this. 240 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 2: And that because I just that was my truth. I 241 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 2: can't that's crazy. 242 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 1: So how old were you when that was your truth? 243 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: So that'd be school school days? 244 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean from Earliers I can remember. But he 245 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 2: kicked me out of home when I was sixteen years old. Yeah, 246 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 2: but you know he'd been telling me that he was 247 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 2: around since I was two years old. 248 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 1: So so that was that would have been your total 249 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 1: internal dialogue. So I imagine like from that age and 250 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 1: even up to definitely up to sixteen, even at school, 251 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:40,839 Speaker 1: was school challenging because you would have had this. 252 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 2: Internal school's awful same thing, like I would, you know, 253 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 2: people say I'm studying. I remember like staring at my 254 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 2: school books and trying to like read, and I just 255 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 2: couldn't even study because I just I just thought I 256 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 2: was so dumb. I just did not understand what was 257 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 2: on the paper. And I even went to like tutoring 258 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 2: and I just could never do well. I had this 259 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 2: belief that I just never got understand it. And I 260 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 2: did fail most of my exams in year twelve. 261 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 1: It's not like I don't think you can look at 262 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 1: year twelve exams compare that to success, But did I 263 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 1: really try hard? 264 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 2: Enough because or did I actually just believe I was dumb, 265 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 2: so there wasn't a point in really going hard. But 266 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 2: I didn't have that belief that I was so dumb 267 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 2: I wasn't gonna understand it. Maybe I would have done better. 268 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,679 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I know that it's so messed up 269 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 1: to have had a childhood like that. One hundred percent. 270 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: No child should ever grow up with that kind of 271 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:32,319 Speaker 1: in doctrine like that kind of like he was daily yeah, 272 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: telling you that. But at another the flip side of 273 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: that is like, look what it's given as far as 274 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: it's the best thing ever. 275 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 2: I mean, it would be hard if I ever seen 276 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 2: him again to say, oh, but I cannot say no, 277 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 2: there's no expectation. But you know he is sitting with 278 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 2: you and to all about all of the listeners. I 279 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 2: can honestly thank him so much. If I didn't go 280 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 2: through all of that, I really wouldn't be who I 281 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 2: am today. He taught me to be strong. He taught 282 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 2: me even my work ethic. At sixteen, I had to 283 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 2: learn to survive on my own. 284 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 1: I had to learn. So what happened So he kicked 285 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: you out of home? 286 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 2: And what happens I was very lucky. 287 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: At the time. 288 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 2: I had a boyfriend who was a couple of years older, 289 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 2: so I moved straight in with him. But I still 290 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 2: had to work really hard to pay my bills. I 291 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 2: was going through school, you know, I didn't have parents 292 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 2: who just bought me a car and pay everything. 293 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: Stayed in school. 294 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 2: My gosh. 295 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I worked every shift that I could get. 296 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 2: But thank goodness, I have the best work ethic now, 297 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 2: Like I'm such a hard worker and I'm so glad 298 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 2: things weren't given to me. I really value and appreciate 299 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 2: everything that I work for. So I could go on 300 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 2: and on the gifts and lessons I got from that 301 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 2: experience and even now just to help teach women how 302 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 2: to reframe their mindset and to find the gifts and 303 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 2: find the lessons and find the positives. If we can 304 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 2: turn every negative, hard experience into a positive by finding 305 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 2: a lesson, that's beautiful. 306 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 1: It's amazing you grow.

You know, when you meet people 344 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 1: and they've got this knowing with themselves that this is 345 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 1: what I'm doing. I'm here fully yeah, and I'm not 346 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: going to question myself. It's like that, and it's so powerful. 347 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 1: Shit happens when you live like that. And so the 348 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 1: fact that he's. 349 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 2: Your anchor, he's been my anchor for yeah, forever we 350 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 2: are ten years. 351 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah that's cool man, Yeah, so cool.

I I was up here touring. 380 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 1: I think my first one of my first week was 381 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 1: ages ago was yes, like five years ago, a long time. 382 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: I was touring a book because I used to live 383 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: on the Goldie and so I always would try and 384 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 1: do a little book signing it missus Flanneryes or something. 385 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:19,879 Speaker 2: Like that, try all the cafes around. 386 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 1: But I remember thinking this is epic. But it was 387 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:27,120 Speaker 1: called Ash's cleaning in Kitchen. But how did it go? 388 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 2: Like it was a massive failure. 389 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 1: Let's talk about it, take it away. 390 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean Steve always had this thing. He 391 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:38,399 Speaker 2: would say, bite off more than you can chew, and 392 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 2: chew like crazy. 393 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 1: Oh I love that, I. 394 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,119 Speaker 2: Do, but we don't live bite anymore. But back in 395 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,119 Speaker 2: the day, that's what we were doing. We were just saying 396 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 2: yes every opportunity, like yes, let's go hard, like we 397 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 2: love this, we love that, let's try who. 398 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 1: Like just on this role. 399 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 2: And the spot became available for a cafe and Steve 400 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 2: joked about it one day and I anyone that knows me, 401 00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 2: I am the biggest foodie I know. Yeah, food is 402 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 2: just everything, like every holiday, every day, just planning around 403 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 2: my food. 404 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 1: I just love it. 405 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:10,120 Speaker 2: So Steve joked, yeah, so good, isn't it. And Steve's 406 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 2: joked about having a cafe and I was like, oh 407 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 2: my god, that'd be freaking amazing and at the time, 408 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 2: we knew another couple that were really passionate about food 409 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 2: as well. We dove in so quickly, we jumped in, 410 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 2: we opened up this cafe. You know, none of us 411 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 2: had any idea what we were doing, and very quickly 412 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:29,160 Speaker 2: I soon learned I didn't actually want to be running 413 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 2: a cafe. 414 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 1: I just want to eat the food. 415 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 2: And that sounds so dumb and so like, but it's 416 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 2: the truth. I'm being honest here. Steve had so much 417 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 2: going on. We just opened up a gym, we just 418 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 2: got married, we were building it out, we had we 419 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 2: had seventy five locations around Australia running boot cams. 420 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 1: We had so much on. 421 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 2: I didn't have the time and energy to be in 422 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 2: a cafe, nor did I have any experience, nor do 423 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 2: I even want to learn how to do that. And 424 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:53,159 Speaker 2: even the people we went into it just it just 425 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 2: wasn't the right dynamic and it failed. 426 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 1: It fell apart. 427 00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,440 Speaker 2: It like we were putting money into all the time 428 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 2: trying to save it. And yeah, there was amazing food, 429 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 2: great stuff, great atmosphere, great location, but none of us 430 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,159 Speaker 2: really have the drive, passion, time. 431 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,119 Speaker 1: Or energy to make it work. 432 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 2: And any business, any relationship if you do not put 433 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,160 Speaker 2: the time and energy into it, it's going to fall over. 434 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:20,239 Speaker 1: I think also Hospo is a beast like hopitality, and 435 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,879 Speaker 1: I think it's completely different to what it looks. I 436 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: like how you're like, I'm a foodie. I'm gonna love it. 437 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 1: We're gonna do like smoothie balls and a Sahi bowls 438 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 1: and we'll have the ball all that stuff. I was 439 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,120 Speaker 1: the exact same with my smoothy bar that shut down 440 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 1: after three years. Same thing I was floating it, I 441 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 1: was putting money. And the thing that I think and 442 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 1: I really want to ask you about, but like, what 443 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:43,640 Speaker 1: was the public's perception of that? 444 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, see, that's the hardest thing. I think, like i'd 445 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 2: be lying and said, oh, I don't care. People think 446 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 2: it is really hard because not only like social media, 447 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:56,440 Speaker 2: but some media jump on and you know that's really clickbaity, 448 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 2: that's really exciting. As she ryns fails like you know, 449 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 2: cafe shots. It's hard. And we were we were on 450 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,960 Speaker 2: a honeymoon and I remember in the Maldives, Oh. 451 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 1: My god, isn't it the best? It feels like a dream. 452 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, it's our favorite place on earth. But 453 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 2: I remember, you know, a lot of the media have 454 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 2: my phone number, and I remember looking at my phone 455 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 2: and all these miscalls and voice messages from people were. 456 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: Like, what's happening with the cafe on my honeymoon? 457 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,199 Speaker 2: And I was like, oh my gosh, this is so 458 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 2: overwhelming and leave me alone answer any of it a 459 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 2: couple because I just like hadn't had much experience in 460 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 2: the media, and and you know, you have to be 461 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 2: really careful because your words and stories can get to 462 00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:33,400 Speaker 2: It's not all the time, you know, not all media is. 463 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 1: Like that, but a lot is some is. Yeah, So 464 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: that was really really hard. 465 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 2: And even now when things happened in my life, media 466 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 2: straight on there, straight on there, like you know, even 467 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,120 Speaker 2: a little a little while ago, we had two buildings 468 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 2: for our gym and massive, massive space. We really just 469 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 2: needed the one, so we just compressed it all into one. 470 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 2: And you know, there were stories written about that she's 471 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 2: going under and this is happening, this is something, and 472 00:21:56,800 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 2: I was like, well, you can make up a story 473 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,159 Speaker 2: about it, that's what you want to do. But it's 474 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,159 Speaker 2: the truth is, we don't need two buildings. We had 475 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 2: way more classes on this side. We can fit it 476 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 2: all in here, the community, the vibe and the energy 477 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 2: is ten times better all in one. So it's a 478 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 2: great it's a great decision and it saves us a 479 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 2: lot of money each week as well. But the stories 480 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,640 Speaker 2: that the media can make a scary So it can 481 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:21,439 Speaker 2: be hard because everything you say, everything you do is 482 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 2: at risk that people will twist it and post it 483 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:27,640 Speaker 2: and story start and people comment and it just opens 484 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 2: up a can of worms. But I don't want to 485 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 2: live my life going oh, but not be myself or 486 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 2: better not do that, or but not say that in 487 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 2: case someone doesn't like it. 488 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,199 Speaker 1: You know, I don't live like that? Do you? And 489 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: I'm so excited? It's just not so excited it so 490 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 1: have you about as like the media?

I hate it. 493 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 2: It's like when you go to America celebrities and not 494 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 2: saying I'm celebrity, but celebrity, hi, celebrity high profile people 495 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 2: or people doing well, just people succeeding. 496 00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:58,439 Speaker 1: It is praise. 497 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 2: You were like, yes, and they're so happy for you 498 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 2: the moment you look like you're doing well or you know, 499 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 2: even I've got friends with money. 500 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 1: Like people hate them. Oh totally. 501 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 2: It just triggers something inside them that you must be lucky, 502 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 2: you're not deserving, you didn't work hard. 503 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,439 Speaker 1: They don't know. I hate it. I hate tool probably syndrome, 504 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: but it's such a thing. It's definitely a thing, and 505 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 1: it's ever going to change. Well, you do stuff in America, right, 506 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 1: Like you've done boot camps and stuff in the area. 507 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,919 Speaker 1: Have you noticed when you speak to an American so 508 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 1: our culture teaches us to talk ourselves down. It's super humble. 509 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: It's not even humble. It's like you're literally negative talking 510 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 1: so often like people be like, oh, you know, you've 511 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 1: written ten books and I'm like, oh no, but like 512 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 1: not a big deal, like last we didn't sell that well, 513 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 1: which is true. And if you tell America and they're like, okay, 514 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 1: they take it literally, like and Ossie would be like, oh, 515 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,359 Speaker 1: you're talking yourself down, humble pie, you know, all that 516 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 1: kind of thing. But in America they take everything you 517 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: say literally. So if you're like, oh, if they say, hey, congratulations, 518 00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,399 Speaker 1: you know in your new gym space, that's though.

I 551 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 2: think going through those experiences that really put me on 552 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 2: the right path to be during what I'm doing now. 553 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 2: If I just kept that cafe out of ego, scared 554 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:35,120 Speaker 2: of what people say to me, I wouldn't be doing 555 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 2: half the things I'm doing now because I wouldn't have 556 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 2: had time that I. 557 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 1: Wouldn't been so miserable right now.

I was like a good 563 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 1: stock such ago, I'm very OCD and you spoke and 564 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 1: it's something that I have only recently had the power 565 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:00,919 Speaker 1: to do. And when I saw you saying this, I 566 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 1: was like, Oh, she's talking to me. I love it. 567 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,440 Speaker 1: What is that? So it's I think it's a few 568 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: blogs ago, but you were talking about weight and checking 569 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,880 Speaker 1: yourself on the scales. Yes, perfect, and I am that 570 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 1: person and I'm a really healthy girl. But if I 571 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:14,679 Speaker 1: get on the scales at the wrong time of the 572 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 1: month or at the end of the night and staid 573 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 1: of the morning, I'll be like, oh my god, I'm 574 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:22,120 Speaker 1: three kilos more than I think I should be and 575 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:25,680 Speaker 1: oh my god, I must be so fat, like literally, 576 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 1: like negative self shook is the for me in sort 577 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:33,440 Speaker 1: of history. It's a really really big trigger and pops 578 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 1: up every now and again totally. And my psychologist recently 579 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 1: just said, I just don't want you weighing yourself anymore, 580 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 1: like ever. He was like, and so for me, that's 581 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 1: the best way for me. I know that some people 582 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 1: love just understanding it, like like I love to understand 583 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 1: like where my body's at once a month and kind 584 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 1: of like knowing. And I think that that's really healthy 585 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 1: as well. But you mentioned in this piece of camera 586 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 1: you were like, when I was in my early twenties, 587 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: I was only happy if I was under sixty kilos 588 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: and I can relate to that. I know so many 589 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,880 Speaker 1: listeners could relate to that. Can you share a little 590 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 1: bit like that time where you'd. 591 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 2: Be like, yeah, I think when I first started in 592 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 2: the health and fitness industry, I got very caught up 593 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 2: quickly with wanting to be shredded. Superline had the vain 594 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,439 Speaker 2: six pack, like no, say your light, and I was 595 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 2: eating the tuna and crackers. I was eating the chicken 596 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,879 Speaker 2: and broccoli and rice, little amounts of rice. Yeah, you know, 597 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,120 Speaker 2: it was a very low calorie diet because I thought 598 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:30,159 Speaker 2: that's I saw everyone posting all these health people and 599 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 2: I was new. I was like, oh, I have to 600 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 2: fit in and be a certain way, and I don't 601 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:35,640 Speaker 2: know why. I just wanted to be under sixty. Over 602 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 2: sixty to me was just. 603 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 1: It's also tall. It's very tall human. 604 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, hundred underweight one hundred and seventy three. So yeah, 605 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 2: I've been under that and I don't even look healthy. 606 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 2: But it's a really hard mental thing to get through, 607 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:51,360 Speaker 2: and it just took a lot of years of working 608 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 2: on myself and accepting that I really love food and 609 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 2: I really want to be balanced. I don't want to 610 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 2: live a life. I can't go out for dinner and 611 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,439 Speaker 2: celebrate your birthday with my girlfriends and build that memory. 612 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,959 Speaker 2: That memory is more important to me than having shredded abs. 613 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 1: You know it is. I love food. 614 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 2: Food for me is one hundred percent nourishment.

You can scroll 828 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 2: all you like, you can think, you know people, you 829 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,239 Speaker 2: can watch, you know. I post a lot on social media, 830 00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:39,879 Speaker 2: but you still only see probably fifteen minutes of my day. 831 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:42,480 Speaker 2: You have no idea what's really going on, and some 832 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 2: people don't want to share that. But we need to 833 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 2: be very sensitive to what we say and how we 834 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 2: say it because it can really shake break or make 835 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:49,080 Speaker 2: their day. 836 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 1: And what is your advice feel because I think this 837 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 1: is what you have nailed. You are judged. You have 838 00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 1: been charged from the moment, whether it be the online trolls, 839 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 1: whether it be like they love like pitting you against 840 00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:04,720 Speaker 1: other people as well that probably don't think they haven't. 841 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 1: Like I had a beautiful girl on the podcast last week, 842 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 1: and they would always pit us against each other because 843 00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:14,040 Speaker 1: we wrote similar books. Oh interesting, and it was the 844 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 1: most awesome chat. You know, I'm like, oh my god. People. 845 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 1: Just so my question is, like, you get judged. You 846 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,280 Speaker 1: get the most amount of judgment out of probably anybody 847 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 1: that I've ever had on my podcast, and you just 848 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:30,840 Speaker 1: take it like a champ and are so real and honest. 849 00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 1: But like say, to somebody, judgment is hard. So somebody 850 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 1: that just like in them, say they're in their workplace 851 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 1: and they somebody says something to them, like someone says, yeah, 852 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 1: you should be having kids, you're too old to him 853 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:43,880 Speaker 1: with something like that, what's your advice for combating judgment 854 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:45,200 Speaker 1: because I can see the way you do it in 855 00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 1: your world, But what about like the girls listening to 856 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:49,960 Speaker 1: this or the women listening to this going I feel 857 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,400 Speaker 1: like at work I'm ostracized, or I feel like I 858 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:53,280 Speaker 1: get a bit judged. 859 00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 2: There's a few things. 860 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:56,680 Speaker 1: One sounds a little bit. People might be like, oh, 861 00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:57,440 Speaker 1: I'm not going to do that. 862 00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,120 Speaker 2: But I had a mentor once say to me, you 863 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:03,240 Speaker 2: wrap yourself, wrap your not physically tend you're wrapping yourself 864 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 2: and bubble wrap whatever. 865 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:06,480 Speaker 1: You just preface, not physically. 866 00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 2: You know, I don't go and do this, but it's 867 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:12,239 Speaker 2: like whatever they say, they physically can't come into you 868 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:13,200 Speaker 2: because you wrapped yourself. 869 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:14,280 Speaker 1: You protected yourself. 870 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 2: Another thing, I think communication is really important. Sometimes people 871 00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:19,840 Speaker 2: say things to me, even online, like you know, messages 872 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:22,719 Speaker 2: all the time. They'll say something it's really judgy, and 873 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:25,480 Speaker 2: I'll voice message them back, which I think they don't expect. 874 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:29,480 Speaker 1: Hey, that didn't feel really good for me. Do that? 875 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,160 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, And then they're like, oh my gosh, I'm 876 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 2: so sorry. I didn't realize how that came across. 877 00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:34,640 Speaker 1: Now I look back. 878 00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 2: You know, communication, if someone's at your work making you 879 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:39,360 Speaker 2: feel like that, sit down and have a talk with 880 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:43,040 Speaker 2: them and don't say you you you I feel because 881 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 2: if you say you they feel attacked, They're going to 882 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:47,240 Speaker 2: get on the defensive. If you can say, I feel 883 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:50,240 Speaker 2: really hurt when you say that. You know, I'm struggling 884 00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,800 Speaker 2: with this right now and that comment really really triggered 885 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:53,840 Speaker 2: me and it didn't feel nice. 886 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 1: Like you know. Yeah, most of the time ecology one 887 00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:58,839 Speaker 1: on one with Ashley Bye. 888 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:02,400 Speaker 2: God, most people, I can be really compassionate. You know, 889 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:06,000 Speaker 2: most people do care. We're not born evil, we really aren't. 890 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 2: Most people are here and like I said before, we've 891 00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:09,719 Speaker 2: spoken about it. 892 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,080 Speaker 1: Hurt people. Hurt people a lot of the time too. 893 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:14,240 Speaker 2: I think if we can separate when people say things 894 00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 2: to me, really come to learn it's got nothing to 895 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:19,200 Speaker 2: do with me, totally, mate, it is all to do 896 00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:21,879 Speaker 2: with them. So now I'm more just more compassionate. They 897 00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:25,200 Speaker 2: say something, I'm like, oh, that's sh they're going through something. 898 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:28,760 Speaker 2: I'll send them live they're being plain right nasty. Sometimes 899 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:29,920 Speaker 2: I will block them, but a lot of the time 900 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,160 Speaker 2: I will send back and say hey, because there's something 901 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:33,480 Speaker 2: I can help you.

I didn't think it's fair that you 906 00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:45,719 Speaker 2: got that or you know, you said this, and it 907 00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 2: did make me feel angry about this that happened to 908 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:49,239 Speaker 2: me when I was a child. Whatever that comes up, 909 00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:51,839 Speaker 2: totally talk about it and you can help someone through that. 910 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:55,759 Speaker 2: But instead of getting on the defensive, right, because. 911 00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:58,960 Speaker 1: I do get defensive, and I was like we all 912 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:03,000 Speaker 1: do in no one's stories like I've just been you're allowed. 913 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:05,239 Speaker 2: We all do it even every now and again, like 914 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:09,240 Speaker 2: my managers in my Instagram messages, and sometimes I'll react. 915 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:10,400 Speaker 1: You know, no one's perfect. 916 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:11,719 Speaker 2: If I'm having a bad day and I've got my 917 00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:13,920 Speaker 2: period and I'm just like not in the mood for it, 918 00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:17,879 Speaker 2: sometimes I will bite back and she'll go on and say, really, yeah, 919 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 2: do you really need to say that.

I really had 932 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,440 Speaker 2: to learn to breathe. But I'm just I'm petrified of it. 933 00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:59,520 Speaker 2: I'm so scared of the thought of it falling to 934 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:02,400 Speaker 2: take it is just yeah, I hate it. 935 00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:02,960 Speaker 1: I hate it. 936 00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:06,680 Speaker 2: These days, I'm breathing through it and I'm not crying. 937 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 2: But there was a time coming back from America with 938 00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:11,120 Speaker 2: Steve when I was younger, maybe like five years ago. 939 00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:13,840 Speaker 2: We were going through a storm.

There's just nothing more that 950 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:39,959 Speaker 2: scares me. I would rather be put in a pool 951 00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:43,640 Speaker 2: full of sharks or a bathtub full of snakes. Like oh, okay, 952 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:47,360 Speaker 2: falling is extreme at heights in general. 953 00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:49,200 Speaker 1: So you clearly wouldn't have skydived. 954 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:52,759 Speaker 2: Oh my god, I could not think of anything work. 955 00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:55,200 Speaker 2: That's the best thing I've ever done.
