Mish Wright | Head of EducationThe conversation around GLP-1 medications has accelerated quickly. What began as a clinical discussion about diabetes and metabolic disease has moved into mainstream weight-loss narratives, media headlines, and everyday client conversations.
Mish Wright | Head of EducationYou know those people who don’t just talk about change — they roll up their sleeves and make it happen? That’s Jen Dugard. If you’ve been in women’s health or fitness for longer than five minutes, you’ll know her name. Founder of MumSafe™, creator of Safe Return to Exercise, and a relentless advocate for ensuring all mums are looked after safely and effectively in fitness. But this conversation wasn’t about her business — it was about leadership, the future of our industry, and why she’s putting her hand up (again) for another term on the AUSactive Board.
Mish Wright | Head of EducationThe pressure on women’s faces is relentless. From “baby Botox” – which if you don’t know, is Botox marketed to women in their 20s, to fillers that promise to freeze time, it can feel like there’s no acceptable way to simply age.

Mish Wright | Head of EducationI absolutely rave about breathwork. And not in a woo-woo, kumbaya kind of way. I’ve been talking about breath for decades—ever since I understood how breathing connects with the pelvic floor in a synergistic, intelligent way. When we exhale, the pelvic floor has an opportunity to gently contract—this is why cueing an exhale during the concentric (effort) phase of a lift is so effective. And when we inhale—if we allow it—the pelvic floor can soften and lengthen.
