Let’s face it – life is a series of failures. How do you feel when you look back on your past “failures?” I say that in quotation marks because I don’t really believe that anything is a failure if you choose to look at it in the right way. Failure isn’t fatal. In fact we need failures because they help to challenge us, growing us into a stronger person armed with more knowledge about what to do better next time. So…
Woooooooooo hoooooo it’s finally heating up here in Perth, Australia. Spring is on it’s way, and with it the threat of donning a bikini, board shorts or budgie smugglers (if you’re into that kind of thing!).

I can’t help but speak up when I see people around me being treated unfairly, and sometimes that leads to me being the scapegoat if I’m…
This week I watched an awesome documentary called Fit To Fat and Back on YouTube. In 2009, former international model and personal trainer – Paul “PJ” James – set out on a life-changing journey of discovery.
