Lara Z is a travelling yoga teacher and artist based out of Sydney. Navigating her own winding journey towards health after a near death experience, she has found creative expression and movement to be the most potent medicine of all. In this episode of The Space Between we get an insight into Lara’s not-so-straight path to yoga teaching as well as her passion for playing with clay.

Beginning with a Moving Meditation, designed for you to enjoy with us, what follows is a great chat between friends around the ‘creartive process’, how hard work gets you places, building a culture, Hawaii, Jodhi’s obsession with stretchy things plus her love affair with German philosopher, Schopenhauer.

You don’t want to miss this rare opportunity to hear Jodhi, the original founder or Tigerlilly Swimwear Australia, on life and her most recent creative giant, The Upside.

The unassuming, charismatic and 2016 Survivor contestant, Sam Webb is my guest on The Space Between this week. After he and good friend, Casey Lyons lost a good mate to suicide in 2013, they started Livin and are now making waves in mental health across the globe.

Their philosophy is to ‘live life at the top and destroy the stigma that’s attached to mental illness. This truly sad story has become a hugely positive movement. They connect, support and encourage one another to talk about their feelings, issues and challenges with the mantra, “It aint weak to speak.” We explore the damaging statistics around suicide in Australia, what Livin are doing about it and how we can all help.

An uplifting story and motivation that we can all make a difference.

Not only a highly successful, well loved and respected Australian footballer, but an incredibly humble, content and happy human. I absolutely loved chatting with Brad for this session and learnt tonnes about his ideas on mindfulness and life in general, including Gnosis Meditation, breathing, biophilia, living on a farm and how we can look to ducks to learn how to deal with trauma (yeah – you heard me). Some great concepts and tools plus his favourite smoothie recipe and why the drive to and from school with his daughter is the best part of his day.

This episode, I chat with former fast-paced corporate, Chelsea Pottenger, whose life was transformed by a hard-hitting case of post natal depression. After deciding that the best thing for her family was to end her life, she was thankfully connected with the right help and has managed to transform a once life threatening situation into one of the most positive stories I’ve ever heard. This is for anyone who has suffered, or suffers from, any kind of anxiety and depression. Chelsea offers up tips and coping mechanisms as well as ‘where to’ for help plus there’s a sweet few mindful moments in which you can participate and take into your every day.
