Today, we’re releasing a special bonus episode of That Physical Culture Podcast to mark International Women’s Day.

Renee and Justine take a moment to reflect on what International Women’s Day means to them and how its themes of strength, resilience and community show up so clearly in the world of physical culture. Physie is, after all, a rare space in sport where women have built, led and sustained something special for generations.

From competition floors to teaching studios, physie has long been a place where women support women, challenge themselves, and celebrate what their bodies can do. In this conversation, Renee and Justine explore why that matters now more than ever.

They’re also joined by Erin Kemp, Head of Practice at major sponsor of the pod, Instinctive Health, for a fascinating discussion on women’s health from the inside out.

Erin walks us through the critical role of gut health and why it sits at the centre of so many aspects of wellbeing. The conversation covers everything from the realities of living with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), to the powerful connection between the gut and mental health, and why the gut is often considered the home base of the immune system.

It’s a thoughtful and empowering conversation about understanding our bodies better, supporting our health, and recognising the incredible strength of women both inside and outside the physie world.

A perfect listen for International Women’s Day!
