When you get sick or injured, do you stop to wonder why? Not just whether you could have prevented it, but actually whether you’ve done something to contribute towards it?
After suffering from several bouts of the ‘flu in close succession, Gina decides to look at what might be causing this pattern of illness. Could there be other causes than just a virus or germs that could result in her body’s ability to cope with the stresses and strains of life?
Join Sam & Gina as they explore some of the ways in which our bodies communicate with us continuously, and how we can start listening to these messages of wisdom.
From releasing pent up emotions through crying, to noticing patterns/recurring issues and ways to start learning how to listen to what your body is trying to tell you – this journey of metaphysical meanderings will give you a few starting points to develop better awareness of your body and what illness and injury can tell us about ourselves.

Recorded in early December, Chris shares with Gina his own challenges and how he was able to motivate himself from being an Ironman triathlon spectator to becoming an Ironman contestant in only a few years.
Major congratulations to our very own ActionPodcast Ironman Chris!
He’s been able to motivate himself to take part in Ironman Cozumel and came in with an incredible time of 13 hours. An amazing achievement. You might not want to do a 3.8km swim, 180km bike ride followed by a 42.2km run (phew!) but there is probably one goal in your life you’d like to create.
Any creation outside of your comfort zone requires a few key principles of discipline, courage, persistence and perhaps an extra special meaning that gives you a deeper level of determination. Whether that’s to go after your dream job, your ideal partner or even an Ironman triathlon.
Listen to Chris and Gina discuss “the difference that makes all the difference”.
