So that's I guess the book. 90 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 5: The whole thing is. You know, we know by now 91 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 5: that yoga isn't just what we're doing on the on 92 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 5: the four corners of our rubber mat.

Really. Yoga is a way of life, 96 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 3: and it's a lifestyle. 97 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:11,479 Speaker 5: So yeah, in that book, it's it's suggested ways for 98 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 5: living this really kind and compassionate and warming way off 99 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 5: the map. 100 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: I love it. 101 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,480 Speaker 2: Ps if you need clanking in the background, we're at 102 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 2: the beautiful Cafeine in Alexandria, but we are quite close 103 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 2: to the kitchen. 104 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 1: It's kind of lunchtime. So if you do hear a 105 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: bit of chat chattering or claim. 106 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 3: Just like chips and gravy in there, is that the 107 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 3: smell you reckon? 108 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: Ah, I didn't pick that, didn't pick up on that. 109 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 4: Good on you. 110 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 2: I love that, by the way, and I love the 111 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 2: way you just said yoga is just one part. Like 112 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,839 Speaker 2: even in the is it the eightlimbs of yoga, the 113 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 2: arsenal or the physical posers. 114 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: Are one tiny chunk one of the eight So. 115 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 2: There are seven other parts that I don't know that. 116 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 2: There's not studios around the seven other parts. Really, so 117 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 2: I think I like that. I think also about yoga though, 118 00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 2: and you'll probably tell me if I'm wrong. It's like 119 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 2: a chance people dip their tawe into all the other 120 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 2: stuff that yoga can offer, but the physical is often 121 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 2: what gets you there. 122 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 3: It's like the breach, it's like the gateway. For sure. 123 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,359 Speaker 5: That's definitely what got me into yoga because I hadn't 124 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 5: done yogs for ever ever, I'd never done it when 125 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 5: I first got into it. I wanted to get into 126 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 5: it because I thought it would give me longer, leaner limbs, 127 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:21,280 Speaker 5: it would make. 128 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 1: Me look good. 129 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 5: Because I hadn't been exercising for a couple of years. 130 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 5: I wasn't in a great place, you know. I was 131 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 5: on antipressants. It's really depressed, and I really didn't get 132 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 5: into it for that though. It was more for the physical. 133 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 5: And after that very first class, I just remember walking 134 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 5: back to my apartment in Bondi. 135 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 3: So the studio is in Northboard. I was walking You've 136 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 3: taken me to the studio. 137 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: It's called dam We've gone together. 138 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a pretty pretty special place. 139 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 5: And I was walking home and I remember stopping in 140 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 5: my tracks and just feeling really emotional. And I don't 141 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,479 Speaker 5: think the feelings were necessarily like high vibes or anything, 142 00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 5: but the main thing was that I was feeling something 143 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 5: because for so many years I was just numb, and 144 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 5: I was like, whoa, Like, is it the yoga? 145 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 4: Is it all? 146 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:07,720 Speaker 3: The breathing isn't stretching? 147 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 5: So I decided to go back, and yes, really quickly 148 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 5: it changed my body for sure. 149 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 1: You said in a month you notice massive changes in 150 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: your body. 151 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 3: And after a month they came off my antidepressants. That 152 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 3: was how fast? Yeah? 153 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 5: For me, that's it wasn't easy coming off them, but 154 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 5: it was yoga was the physical was the change agent 155 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 5: that I needed. You know, the mental stuff was just 156 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 5: from the get go. I really noticed that stuff was gold. 157 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 5: And it's still you know that yoga still is my medicine, 158 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 5: but you know a lot of the other practices around 159 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 5: it as well. 160 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 1: Just before finding yoga. And I only know this because. 161 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 2: I've been reading and researching you, and I was just saying, 162 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 2: I'm be ocd and nerdy with the podcast and when 163 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 2: you spoke about before that first ever class and being 164 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 2: on antidepressants and you described as being constantly in a 165 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 2: state of dullness, What. 166 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 1: Was that like?

You don't feel anything. 169 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 5: My experience with it was that I didn't experience any 170 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 5: highs and I didn't experience any lows. I was just 171 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 5: in this really like me it's a good way, constantly 172 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 5: in that place. And there was just something inside me 173 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 5: that had just shut down. And I think it really 174 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 5: kind of started back in high school, which is I 175 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 5: guess my first big failure if you if you do so, yeah, 176 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 5: Really the feeling of meth really stemmed from them, because 177 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,680 Speaker 5: then because when I was about. 178 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:52,559 Speaker 3: Oh, year nine, how old are we. 179 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: In year nine? 180 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 5: I up until that point I was always you know, 181 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 5: friends with I went to boarding, score active. I was 182 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 5: you know, really good hockey player, a really good swimmer, 183 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 5: water polo, just like anything that I applied myself to I. 184 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 3: Nailed, Like I was really good at, really athletic. 185 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 5: And then about that age of year nine, I decided 186 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,679 Speaker 5: that I just wasn't enough. I wasn't pretty enough, I 187 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 5: wasn't good enough. I was comparing myself to another person 188 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 5: in particular, and don't when I look back on it, it's 189 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 5: like it's not that person's fold or it's just like 190 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 5: a silly teenage thing that you make a decision. At 191 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 5: one point, I'm not good enough, and so I thought 192 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 5: that I could be better or accomplish something from what 193 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 5: I can work out, and I've done that much work 194 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 5: on myself, is that I could accomplish something by starving myself. 195 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 5: So I did that and I was fucking good at it. 196 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 5: In fact, I don't think I've ever been so disciplined 197 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 5: as when I was anorexic. 198 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 2: There's an I'm not away from you. But I heard 199 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 2: her an interview with Wak in Phoenix for The Joker, 200 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 2: and he had to lose heaps of weight, and he 201 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 2: was on Jimmy Kimmel and they said, how did you 202 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 2: go losing all that weight? Because he looks anorexic, he 203 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 2: looks so skinny and leaning it. And he said, he 204 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 2: turned around, he goes, it was so easy. He said, 205 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 2: for the first week, you've got low energy. And he said, 206 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 2: then you get as soon as you get close to him, 207 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 2: close to the goals, he said, this like wave of 208 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 2: control comes over you. And he said, he said, I 209 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 2: became more disciplined, and I became more almost obsessed with it. 210 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,439 Speaker 2: And I can when you say that, I can understand. 211 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 5: I never counted calories. I never I was never like that. 212 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 5: It was just it was almost a competition with myself 213 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 5: each day. How can I get better at this. 214 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: Oh wow, So what would a day look like eating wise? 215 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 5: Then I've got a pretty fast metabolism anyway, So I 216 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 5: think I was still eating three meals a day, but 217 00:10:56,120 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 5: they were like minimal. I couldn't even tell what it was. 218 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 5: It feels like so long ago, but I do remember 219 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 5: one day. I do remember one day I went the 220 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 5: whole day without eating, and I was like, I couldn't 221 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 5: even walk up the stairs, Like I was just that exhausted. 222 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 5: And obviously it became really obvious even though I wasn't 223 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 5: with my parents because I was at boarding school. You know, 224 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 5: my parents lived five hours away. It was really lucky that, 225 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 5: you know, we live in we I grew up in 226 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 5: this really small country town famous for apples called Batlow, 227 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 5: and really lucky that my parents worked really hard to 228 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 5: send me to boarding school, which I absolutely loved. 229 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 1: It was nothing about being a boarding school. 230 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 5: You know, the headmistress obviously noticed and friends. So it 231 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 5: wasn't until I saw my mom when I came out 232 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 5: of class one day and thought she hasn't done a 233 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 5: five hour road trip just for fun. She took me 234 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 5: off to hospital. They diagnosed me, so I kind of 235 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 5: I was like, Okay. 236 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 1: I go do something about this. 237 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 3: What did they diagnose you with with anarexia? 238 00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 4: Okay? 239 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 3: And I guess because I. 240 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:04,199 Speaker 5: Had so many eyes on me. Well, first of all, 241 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 5: that's I think that's a really that was. Deciding that 242 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 5: I wasn't good enough or it wasn't enough was probably 243 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,680 Speaker 5: my biggest epic failure. But you know, we talk about 244 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,200 Speaker 5: failures on this podcast, and I think you'll agree doesn't 245 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 5: feel right to call it a failure. 246 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,199 Speaker 3: Because you've grown. 247 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 5: Everything's on purpose totally and everything. 248 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: That's why this exists. 249 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:29,680 Speaker 2: Yes, it's we call it failing, but it's actually like 250 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 2: the biggest gift for yourself, Like if you didn't learn 251 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 2: the lesson of self worth or not being enough or 252 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 2: not loving yourself for those things like who knows what 253 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 2: path you might like. The theory is, yeah, you gotta 254 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,679 Speaker 2: you fail, but you learn something epic from that. And 255 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 2: it sounds like the part of your story you're up 256 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 2: tore was though you were kind of in the thick 257 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 2: of this. 258 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,679 Speaker 5: Yeah, And also maybe from a yogic point of view, 259 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 5: I might think of these little moments of failures. 260 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 3: More like karma. Whether you know. 261 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 5: I from a past lifetime or a few lifetimes ago 262 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 5: or early on in who knows. 263 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 3: That's the mystery of life. 264 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 5: Right, So I had all these eyes on me at school. Okay, 265 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 5: we've got to watch her, make sure she's well. And 266 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 5: so then I started to get really secretive about it, 267 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 5: and it turned into blame you, and you know, you 268 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 5: and I have had so many chats about this, and 269 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 5: it still gets my heart a little bit because I 270 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 5: guess what I feel so sad about is that you know, 271 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 5: we're giving this beautiful body to look after and you know, 272 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 5: this gift of athleticism, and to look back and see 273 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 5: myself make that decision and do that self to myself, 274 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 5: do that to myself. 275 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:44,679 Speaker 3: Lordos are really bringing out in me. 276 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 4: Guys, this is all You're very courageous. 277 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, that makes me feel sad. 278 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: You would have been how old though at this. 279 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 3: Age fifteen fourteen? 280 00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 2: Like I don't want you to ever blame yourself for that, 281 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 2: because like, although, yes you got lost on your path, 282 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 2: and yes that was a coping mechanism, and let's just 283 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 2: put it into perspective for a sec anybody that has 284 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:14,199 Speaker 2: an eating behavior, let's call it. And then all of 285 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 2: a sudden, there's eyes on you and you're not ready 286 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 2: to let go of that yet. It's not it's just morphed. Yeah, 287 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 2: it makes sense to me. That sounds like a natural 288 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 2: progression without like sitting in and facing I mean to 289 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 2: sit in and face an eating disorder at seventeen, Like 290 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 2: mind didn't even develop until I was twenty three, So 291 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 2: I can't imagine how at that? Do you know what 292 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 2: I mean? Like you don't even I don't think we 293 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 2: know who we are till like thirty. Mate, God, I'm 294 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 2: still working. But I mean, like, imagine then, Like that's 295 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 2: why I'm saying, don't I know? You say like it 296 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 2: feels like a failure that you were doing that to 297 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 2: your body, And I understand that, and I can see 298 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 2: how you would feel that, But please don't beat yourself up, 299 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 2: because one, I've been friends with you for so long 300 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 2: and I've seen the way that you so open and 301 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 2: honest definitely with me about this. So first of all, mate, 302 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 2: you've done very well today. But the second thing is, 303 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 2: like you've consistently been working on, like consistently over your 304 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 2: entire lifetime. You've worked on the idea of not being 305 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 2: enough being coping maganism with stress, you know, like and 306 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 2: when burnout comes, triggers come on up, like I'm I 307 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 2: will still say to my boyfriend. I'll be like, oh, 308 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 2: I'm having a funny day with food today, and that's 309 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 2: totally fine. 310 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 1: I'm thirty four, and. 311 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 5: Isn't it so good to talk about it? Because that 312 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 5: became my problem not talking about it. All eyes are 313 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 5: on me. How can I hide it? How can I 314 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 5: still have this thing that I can control and be 315 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 5: good at. So it became secretive. And you know, with 316 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 5: berlimia a lot of the time, it's not something that 317 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 5: makes you super super skinny anyway. So I guess that 318 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 5: was you know, I kind of hit it very well, 319 00:15:55,000 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 5: and not talking about it though, was probably the worst thing, and. 320 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 3: That's that. I think that contributed to feelings of numbness, 321 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 3: totally going back to why. 322 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 5: I was in that space of feeling numb anyway, because 323 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 5: you're not expressing, you're not talking, you're just. 324 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 3: Bottling it all up. 325 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 5: And then when you feel like you've bottled it all 326 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 5: up too much, there's a purge literally spilling it. 327 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 3: So yeah, secretive, we're. 328 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 2: Taking laxatives as well, no, so you're always more the 329 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 2: purge the other way, okay, because I've got a bit 330 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 2: on that laxative boat, because when you're not eating much 331 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 2: obviously not feeling much, and so I got sucked into there. 332 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: I just wondered, because I've never spoken ever about that. 333 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 2: So how did you go from like being in this 334 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 2: space of Okay, I can still control this thing. 335 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 1: I'm still really good at it. I am just now 336 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 1: hiding it from people. 337 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 2: How did you go from that to then did you 338 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 2: find that it changed when you spoke to someone or yeah, 339 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 2: and look. 340 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 5: It was on and off for a long time, and 341 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 5: then you know, even more recently talking like in the 342 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:05,120 Speaker 5: past five years, when I started talking about it more, 343 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 5: and you know, you and I had big conversations together, 344 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:10,400 Speaker 5: We had big. 345 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,119 Speaker 3: Conversations around it. Yeah, that was a really special time. 346 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 5: And so I've been really lucky enough that talking about 347 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,920 Speaker 5: it more has healed. And I can't express how important 348 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 5: that is. Like anyone listening to this who struggles with 349 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 5: any kind of eating disorder, you've got to talk about it, 350 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 5: You've got to express it. 351 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 3: You got to you know, you might want, might not 352 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:30,440 Speaker 3: want to do. 353 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 5: It publicly, like I am right, but talking about it 354 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 5: just the bar makes it feel a little less shamy. 355 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 5: And I think also having a daughter and having someone 356 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:46,879 Speaker 5: that you just want to set a really good example 357 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 5: for as well helps helps a lot. But yeah, I 358 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 5: think look, I think that started me off on this 359 00:17:54,080 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 5: trajectory of not speaking my truth. But yeah, once I 360 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 5: started doing the yoga, that definitely. 361 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:06,239 Speaker 3: Helped to lift the fog a little bit and I 362 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:10,360 Speaker 3: could feel more of a range of emotions. Got it, 363 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:11,479 Speaker 3: would you? 364 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:14,399 Speaker 1: I just have what I was gonna say. 365 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 2: I was looking at you know, I kept something like 366 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 2: going to cut you off and say, hang on, hang on, 367 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 2: it's gonna come, It's gonna come. Because it was about 368 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 2: this ED stuff. I don't know why I'm calling EDS 369 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 2: because it's in my notes is Oh they got it? 370 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 2: Did you find that? 371 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 1: Obviously? 372 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 2: You also not to jump around too much like generally 373 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 2: doing these listeners are used to it when you say, 374 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,119 Speaker 2: are in high areas of stress in your life, be 375 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 2: it good stress. I opening an incredible but ginormous health 376 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 2: and fitness space. 377 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 1: Then so you're doing this thing, you're like, go, go, go, 378 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:49,360 Speaker 1: go go. 379 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,959 Speaker 2: I remember you didn't stop, like your feet never hit 380 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 2: the ground. We'd have like a little like coffee or 381 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 2: green juice date downstairs and then you'd be like, I 382 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,440 Speaker 2: gotta go to like, you know, we'd have these little 383 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 2: pockets of time just in between when you were just one. 384 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 2: And I imagine that. I know for me, when I'm 385 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 2: really stressed out, that can be a trigger. 386 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, that turned into a lot of that. 387 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:17,479 Speaker 5: The first year, I'd skip a lot of meals and 388 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 5: it showed up in that regard. But burnout was the 389 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 5: biggest thing for me in those first couple of years, 390 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:27,359 Speaker 5: like fully burnt out, not listening. 391 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:30,360 Speaker 3: To myself, not speaking my truth. 392 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 5: A lot, you know, not having the kind of business 393 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 5: conversations that I should have had, and letting a lot 394 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 5: of those things sort of slide. But yeah, and that's 395 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 5: another I guess if you look at the burnout as 396 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 5: a bit of a failure, all these things I look 397 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 5: at as my inverted commerce failures or commas, they're all 398 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 5: they've all become my biggest messaging in what I teach 399 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 5: and when I speak and whatever I do publicly. So 400 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 5: the burnout, you know, my whole eCos is based around 401 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 5: helping people. 402 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 3: Not burn out. 403 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, feel good and feel healthy vital Yeah, and burnout 404 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 2: it's like a one way road to the opposite. 405 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 5: So I think you your your biggest messes create your 406 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 5: biggest opportunities for messaging as well. 407 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 2: Oh I like that you said messes, failure, messes, same ballgame, 408 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 2: face plant. Yeah totally, So would you say. I know 409 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 2: we've spoken in the past about you having healers and 410 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 2: we were talking about that for for hands out and 411 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 2: kind of like spiritual kind of coaches and life coaches. 412 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 1: Have you or does therapy as well, like for that 413 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: stuff or have you in the past? 414 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 5: This I kind of expresses enough like I do not 415 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 5: know how anyone survives without For me, my medicine is 416 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 5: yoga and meditation. For some people it's meditation and surfing 417 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 5: or surfing or hiking whatever, have that form of what's 418 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:03,120 Speaker 5: what's your medicine? And then I also don't know how 419 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,199 Speaker 5: we survive without the support of what I call for 420 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 5: myself a spiritual a team. So I've got two people 421 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 5: in particular who are like my secret weapons. 422 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:14,600 Speaker 3: Well and they're actually married. 423 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 5: So I'm always cautious of saying this because I don't 424 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 5: want to like tell three people about them that. 425 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 2: You don't need to say the names, you can just 426 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,360 Speaker 2: talk about them. Everyone knows that I have a therapist 427 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 2: called Terry but I will not give his ttails out 428 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:31,399 Speaker 2: because he's retired. Number one and two epic. Yeah, I'm like, yeah, 429 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 2: I hold on to them, so. 430 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: You can just use their name. 431 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 5: They're a married couple, Meghan and Michael, and they're both 432 00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 5: kind of energy healers. They're amazing that it work together. 433 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 5: But so I see them separately, and one I lie 434 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 5: on a massage table and he kind of moves energy 435 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,159 Speaker 5: around me. And he's also a therapist, so if I 436 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 5: want to talk to him talk through things with him, 437 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 5: I do, and he sees or feels the energy and 438 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 5: the vibration my body and how to move that through. 439 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 5: So that's really useful. And then his wife, she is 440 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:09,479 Speaker 5: one percent the reason why Smidge is around. My period 441 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 5: ever since an her EXL was a bit skew if 442 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,639 Speaker 5: hormone skew, if I didn't really know if I was 443 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 5: ever going to be able to conceive. She's an acupuncturist. 444 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,880 Speaker 5: She'd you know, a lot of Chinese medicine. She'd give 445 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 5: me herbs every second week every month, and that got 446 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 5: me back on track. So and I talk a lot 447 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 5: with her as well, So you know, I think that 448 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 5: this is all in my book as well, the importance 449 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 5: of tribe. I think, you know, way back in the day, 450 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,880 Speaker 5: we all had communities and we all had so much 451 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 5: help and even raising a child. It takes a village, 452 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 5: That's when it's saying comes it takes. 453 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 3: A village, whereas these days we're all so separate into ourselves. 454 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 5: Are so many different ways to connect, or it feels 455 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,120 Speaker 5: like there's so many different ways to connect. But why 456 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 5: are people so lonely? Why so many people committing suicide, 457 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 5: Why people cutting themselves, hurting themselves like more than ever. 458 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 5: So I think that's really important to be able to 459 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 5: have people to lean on and let people lean on. 460 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 3: You as well. 461 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you're good at that. 462 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 5: I had heard Brunet Brown recently. She recently did to 463 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 5: talk about trust. She's researching a lot about trust at 464 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:23,359 Speaker 5: the moment, and she said people are more likely to 465 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 5: trust you if you also lean on them for advice 466 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 5: and to be trusted. So it's not just Lola, I 467 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 5: know that you really trust me with your staff, but 468 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 5: you'll trust me more if I, yeah. 469 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 3: Trust you with myself. So it's a two way story. 470 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 1: I love that. 471 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 2: I think as well, we sometimes get caught up with 472 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:49,359 Speaker 2: being like as yogis and yoga te as like the healer. 473 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 1: Sometimes that can like you would know. 474 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 2: I'm sure there are people that come to you after 475 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 2: class and they're like, oh, my hip flexens and they've. 476 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 1: Got a story. You're there to help that. But it's 477 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 1: when that an't. You got to get that. That's a 478 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: very interesting dynamic, and. 479 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 2: A tricky one is a yoga teacher to navigate because 480 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 2: you are there to facilitate the movement of you know, 481 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 2: the us and are the pos and also potentially hold 482 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 2: space for healing, like that's what you are there for. 483 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,639 Speaker 2: But yeah, I think it's interesting.

I've never 534 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 2: talked about this, but I used to get psychically attacked. 535 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 2: So I fall asleep at night feeling like someone was 536 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 2: strangling me. It was like this, yeah, tell me before 537 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:49,679 Speaker 2: the eyes of liqu that live. And I remember I 538 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:51,680 Speaker 2: spoke to like a healop and I was always kept 539 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 2: doing and dreaming of reptiles. And there was another natural 540 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 2: path that was really hippie, and we were going through 541 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,159 Speaker 2: our studies together and she was like and I was like, 542 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,080 Speaker 2: oh man, I had this last night. You were sitting 543 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:02,199 Speaker 2: the other side of a creek and there was a 544 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 2: baby crocodile between us. And she's like, I'm talking to 545 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:06,919 Speaker 2: you after class and I was like, oh my god, 546 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 2: what have I done? And she's like, you're dreaming of 547 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 2: reptilian energy. Something's up with you. And I was like, 548 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 2: and I'm like, you're getting hooked by your clients. So 549 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:16,639 Speaker 2: we where we practiced at Union, we were next door 550 00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:18,880 Speaker 2: to a mental asylum, and so you'd get a lot 551 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 2: of interesting cases just by being next door to an 552 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 2: institution that looked up for very interesting souls. And I 553 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,919 Speaker 2: yead fall asleep. And the ritual that they gave me 554 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 2: one was always come from love. And if you have 555 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 2: this feeling, just saying over your mantras, I love you, 556 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 2: I love you, I love you, And by saying I 557 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 2: love you to another, you naturally are saying I love 558 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:41,640 Speaker 2: you to yourself. And then they got me to burn 559 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 2: frank concense and I had to burn it in like 560 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 2: an old pot around my bedroom and then that stopped. 561 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,120 Speaker 5: Man, when you go deep with this energetic stuff, it's 562 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:54,399 Speaker 5: like big so much not to like scare people or 563 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:59,400 Speaker 5: to but there's this you know, the veil is then, yeah, 564 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 5: the veil is then between this world and the benevolent 565 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 5: or whatever else is on the other side that we're 566 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:10,640 Speaker 5: not necessarily that most of us can't see. 567 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:12,880 Speaker 2: But you could feel for people going, oh god, guys, 568 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 2: you've just gone on like an astral tangent, speaking cosmically, 569 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 2: but I think for people listening that go and can't 570 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,119 Speaker 2: relate to that, come back to your intuition. You when 571 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 2: you get that gut feeling that's often feeling bigger than yourself, 572 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 2: Like you know, when you get or you'll see someone, 573 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 2: you'll get a feeling in your heart. Like the first 574 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 2: time I ever filmed a documentary, I was not even 575 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 2: twenty one, and I could feel warmth in my heart 576 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 2: on a physical level. So I think these things like that, 577 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 2: to me, I'm. 578 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 1: Like, there is something bigger out there. 579 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 2: Not to digress too much, but because this still very 580 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 2: much comes back to energy. 581 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 1: But you are a new. 582 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 2: Mamma, pretty new mamma, so Alice is just termed one. 583 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 2: But also you're a stepmom pretty much, aren't you. 584 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 1: How does that feel? And how how did that? Was 585 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 1: that an interesting transition? Or yeah? 586 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 5: It was interesting because my partner's son is ten, but 587 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 5: when I first met him, he was what eight? No, 588 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 5: it was not, he was seven, I reckon it was 589 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 5: like about three years. Yeah, yeah, it's been longer than 590 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 5: to be sure, it's gone very quickly. So yeah, a 591 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 5: transition to it into it really easy to begin with 592 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 5: his great kid. He's one of those kids that's kind 593 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:36,840 Speaker 5: of good at everything. And yeah, he's around adults a lot, 594 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 5: so you forget that he's only ten years old. You know, 595 00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 5: like it's challenging when you have a baby. You know, 596 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 5: I'd be breastfeeding at night times when I would normally 597 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 5: go into bed with Lewis and read him a book, 598 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 5: and that's and stuff. So yeah, there were a few 599 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 5: little riffs when that came up.
