# 27 Are You On The Stage Or In The Audience?

One thing I have done a lot of as a kid growing up was speech and drama, show and tell and going to plays. It was a family thing. One thing struck me quite early. It's always more comfortable in the audience.  But the audience are always the ones looking on, wishing, hoping and wanting.  Are you in the audience or are you on the stage? In this Podcast we talk about the spotlight effect and how to push yourself to think and be better. - K&A x

#21 Health Isn't Sport

We wanted to get off the fence about some things! We have shut up for a while about some things but sometimes when you know the answer you must air it. We feel really strongly about giving people the mentality for good decisions and making health and fitness inclusive.  However fitness and health is looking more and more exclusive 🤯

#19 Guest Episode! - Luke O' Mahoney

We were delighted to be joined on the podcast by Luke O'Mahoney.  Luke is a Dad, Husband, sports coach, a charity worker and he has done some pretty mean feats. As he says himself, Luke is a great example to everyone that no matter how seemingly small or insignificant it might seem initially, small efforts add up. Some of the big takeaways include: - Surrounding yourself with like minded people. - Immersing yourself 100%  - Having pillars of your life or 'bubbles' as Luke says. And... always looking to improve.  Funbarr Challenge: https://www.thefunbarrchallenge.com CLAPAI: http://www.cleft.ie
