  • Thanks Mate

    My therapist recommended the podcast and was vague as to why. The instant I saw the YouTube spot with Origin and Greg Inglis I knew I had to listen to you!

Saavanah Bourke: The Battle No One Sees
Q: Can you describe how your relationship with food and body image developed during your gymnastics years?
It started with the external identity of being 'the gymnast with abs' and evolved into a long-standing struggle with an eating disorder that affected daily routines, work, and self-worth until I learned to talk about it and seek support.
The Signs You’re Not Okay & When to Speak Up with Jack Davis

Start with honesty, acknowledge the specific feelings, and ask for support; don't worry about saying the perfect thing—being present and asking for connection matters more.
The Signs You’re Not Okay & When to Speak Up with Jack Davis
