This week's podcast is with one of Australia's most successful CrossFit athletes, with a long career including several trips to the CrossFit games and Australian Regional competitions.
We chat about what it takes to be so driven, to compete at such a high level, how she juggles motherhood with lofty goals and the how she is building a new life after leaving an abusive relationship.
Domestic Violence is a tragedy that affects 1 in 6 Australian women, we are so incredibly grateful to Denae for her bravery in speaking about her experiences and sharing her story so that others can understand the warning signs and know that they are not on their own. A truly open account of the difficulties and challenges faced on many levels, Denae is a beacon of honesty and a fantastic role model to all mothers, women and people looking to be better humans.
