Podcast & Guest Conversations
I’m passionate about creating evidence-based conversations around menopause, women’s health, exercise physiology, and long-term wellbeing.
Through my podcast and guest appearances on other platforms, I share practical insights, clinical education, and honest conversations designed to help women better understand their bodies during perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.
Whether we’re discussing strength training, bone health, metabolic health, lifestyle interventions, or navigating midlife with confidence, my goal is always the same:
To help women feel informed, empowered, and supported.

Large Workforce Engagements: Stengel & Austin
For larger organisational engagements, I partner with leadership strategist Kersten Stengel to deliver evidence-based workplace programs through Stengel & Austin.
Together, we combine expertise in workforce health, leadership, organisational strategy, psychosocial risk, injury management, and workforce sustainability to help organisations build healthier, safer, and more productive workplaces.
With more than 20 years' experience in Exercise Physiology, workplace rehabilitation, injury management, occupational health, and workers' compensation, I bring practical insight into how health impacts employee performance, recovery, engagement, and long-term workforce participation.
Kersten brings extensive experience in executive leadership, organisational transformation, workplace culture, nervous system regulation, and sustainable performance, helping organisations create environments where both people and business can thrive.
Our combined approach bridges the gap between organisational strategy and human performance- connecting leadership, health, risk, and culture into practical solutions that create lasting change.
Whether you're looking for keynote presentations, leadership development, workplace health initiatives, psychosocial risk education, or tailored half- and full-day workshops, we work with organisations to design programs that meet their unique goals and challenges.
Together, Stengel & Austin deliver evidence-based, practical solutions that strengthen both people and organisational performance.
