Hi there!! 👋🏼⠀
⠀
It’s been a minute since I first introduced myself, so I thought why not do it again for those who are new to so you can put a face to the name. ⠀
⠀
I’m Taela.⠀
Melbourne, Australia is where I reside.⠀
⠀
What you need to know about me...⠀
⠀
1. I love everything health and fitness, I live for the gym and am currently training for an upcoming body building com next year so I go 6 times a week. It’s my happy place and the place I can go to release my stress 💪🏼⠀
⠀
2. I’ve done Karate for 15 years, and was lucky enough to represent my state and country on the world stage 🥋 🌏⠀
Because of this I also spent time coaching other athletes, which lead me to become a mindset coach.⠀
⠀
3. I’m a qualified Counsellor and spend half my work life working at a high school helping the youth of today become more resilient and facing the issues they have in their lives 🎓⠀
⠀
4. I am also the co-owner of which are specifically designed programs to help up and coming athletes get on the right path to play/ compete at an elite level 🏉🏆⠀
⠀
So there’s a little tid bit about me. I’d love to get to know you guys too - feel free to drop me a comment below and tell me a bit about you guys 🖤👇🏼

A few weeks ago we ran a MINDSET, MATES & MENTAL HEALTH session at alongside to educate the players on how they can support their mates 🧠💪🏼

Sporting clubs are one of the best places to get support when you’re struggling, they’re one big family full of people who care about you and will help you when you need it.

These legends were amazing throughout the whole night working through:

⭐️ Supporting a mate scenarios
⭐️ Ways you can support a mate who’s struggling
⭐️ Key things to look out for in your mates that might mean you need to check in on them

Well done legends 👏🏼🏉
If you’d like BSSC & to come and run a mental health session with your club get in contact with us via our website!!

If you’re in Melbourne then you know we’re back in lockdown which when it’s Lockdown 4.0 it can be a tough time 💔

Even if you’re not in Lockdown it’s important to check in with yourself to see how your travelling every so often.

Here’s our really quick Mental Health Check-In you can do in under 2 mins to see where you’re at.... and if you’re having a rough time then talk to someone you trust for support!! 🧠🤍

This week we had the pleasure of heading to to deliver a Mental Health session with their teams 🏉❤️

There’s nothing we love more than going and educating clubs on:

• How they can look out and support one another

• Where they can get support from if they need it

• And what they can do to stay mentally healthy and have an abundance of wellness in their lives

We can’t wait to go back in a couple of weeks time for session ✌🏼🧠

So what does having real CONFIDENCE mean and look like??

• The ability to trust yourself unconditionally

• The ability to stay true to yourself and who you are when others judge you

• Be able to empower yourself when everything appears to be falling apart.

Confidence is knowing you can rely on yourself with no question or hesitation, and that everything will be alright.

Confidence has been one of the key personality traits I had/ have been focusing on in 2020/1 knowing that despite the challenges I was facing I could overcome them all - being pregnant during a pandemic, loss of work in our household and giving birth to a baby and raising it (nothing can fully prepare you for that).

Having unshakable confidence in myself made such a huge difference to my mental and emotional wellbeing throughout last year and this year.

If you’re not willing to invest in yourself, your own confidence and self-connection then how can you expect others too?
