Favourite gym workout? Other than flexing in the mirror for 10 mins bec thats fun

Ah fam, I don't get to flex half as much as I would like - there's always the lads around so it's not worth the ribbing 😂😂
I'm a fan of the classics - Fave day of the week is an hour on the treadmill doing sprint intervals (is it too much cardio, yas. Do I need it for work, also yas, haha!) And then legssss. I always mix some shoulder and back stuff in with legs, but that's just because they're so rewarding to workout, haha! Like I have a hard time with glute and ab growth, but my back is real nice and lean right now, and I'm almost lifting the stack so I'm not giving that up 😂
So the usual squat, jumping squat, prisoner squat, deadlift, lunges, jumping lunges for 45 mins and then 15 mins of abs. I wILL find them, I wiLL.

The only experience I have is running kids parties so no one would book me 😂 that’s why I’m struggling to even get an interview

I hear you, haha! When I started out with the photography, all J had was sports shots to my name and they needed a lot of work, haha! So I spent at least a year building a portfolio - I did model calls, dirt cheap shoots, volunteer work and I spammed Instagram and Facebook. It worked well enough that by the end of the year I was getting the gigs I wanted and charging the prices I wanted!
So it could be worth offering to throw and host parties for friends, maybe do a couple yourself, approach companies with a "I am an events planner" line, fundraising events for charities? Build up that portfolio - and businesses love charity experience, haha! I don't know, might be worth a shot!

Does anyone really enjoy the taste of coconut water? The packaged products I've tried have tasted like the water I soak my gym socks in (or how I'd think it would taste).

Hahaha! I tried it a couple of times when I was on this mega determined fitness kick about four years ago, and it's like I can still taste it. Really would not recommend. I'm a lemon and water kind of girl 😂

What your Instagram?

I'm not 100% keen on telling you guys. I sTILL got four messages yesterday about my feet.

What does hosting a party involve? 🥂

Swanning around, basically. You welcome people, make sure everyone has a drink at all times, do the "Oh, you just HAVE to meet so and so, you'll LOVE them" line (but you actually have to know who needs to meet who,) make sure the caterers and bar staff are happy with what's going on, circulate the entertainment, make a bit of a speech to toast the person whose party it actually is - it's fun! It's not a job or anything, I just throw a lot of parties so friends ask me to run theirs to avoid the stress 😂

How do you seal with door to door knockers/sale people?

By living behind a gated driveway in one house and miles up in the mountains in the other, haha! We just don't get them 😊

What’s new with you? Are you done with uni?

Ugh, I wish. I'll be done in March! And by then, I'll have two new jobs, my coaching hours have increased and it's tournament season! Couple that with the fact that I've got multiple shoots in the next month, I've got two parties I've been asked to host (yay!) aND I'm going away for a long weekend with some friends - it a going to be a busy one!
But you know what, it's going to be aWESOME. Absolutely awesome.

This month has been tough for you. Well done!

God, along with this my Aunty Sal was given four months to live and my lil brother finally cracked after fifteen years of domestic abuse. I'm kind of impressed he lasted this long, haha, I broke down years before he did 😂 He's one of the toughest people I know, but he's hurting so bad right now. It's not easy to see, especially when all I can do is try and support him. He's trying to push everyone away to keep himself a bit safer, and it's rough. I feel like I had this one job to keep him safe and took my eye off the ball - He's been through too much, fam. And there's this threat of yet another divorce/not-divorce/divorce hanging over his head - I'm going to make the world a bit kinder for him or die trying, haha 😅

What's up?

I've done way too much crying over the past couple of days- I'm one of these people who refuses to cry on point of principle, you know? But I got this restraining order through today.
And I have the weirdest mixture in my chest. I feel more guilty than I have ever done in my life, but tentatively hopeful. Like, yes, it hurts so badly now - but I've needed this for almost seven years.
One day, I'll never write about him again.
One day, I'll be more than the stupid girl who loved him. I'll be able to love myself.

I know a lot of so called Superfoods are just marketing ploys but are there certain things you think would be great to add to your diet eg tumeric, chia or hemp seeds?

Green tea is genuinely really good, as are blueberries, strawberries, raspberries and cranberries (not that I can afford them, but the literature is there, haha!) They have an amazing capacity as antioxidants.
Kale and spinach (all of the dark, leafy greens tbh) are super nutrient rich - we're talking high in zinc, calcium, vitamin C, iron, and they're full of fibre. So they deserve that title, haha!
I don't know if eggs have ever been lauded as a superfood? But damnnnnn, they should be. They are made up of the hiGHEST quality protein, and they actually have antioxidant properties as well! So cool! And you can dip lil bits of toast in them so that's definitely a win.
Anything in the legume camp is super worthwhile - so your peas, peanuts, pulses, papaya, pomerians, Popeyes. They promote weight loss if that's your schtick, but they're super rich in protein and fibre.
There's other really good stuff - salmon is amazing, avocado does live up to millenials hype, yoghurt is super good, ginger and cinnamon are proven to do all sorts of rad stuff - but bottom line is to live yo best life and not overdo it on the unhealthy/delicious stuff.

You're so perfect. I wish I was you.

Dude, today I started the process of filing for a restraining order. I'm 22, and it'll be my second. Two restraining orders by 22. Next month I have to testify against a man I worked closely with and considered a friend in a sexual assault case.
You don't want this life, haha.
