I'm Shanelle Kari, and welcome to Press Play.
True joy is found in the mind, the way we think and our perception of ourselves and our world. Each episode we will delve deeper into our own thinking, meeting both guests and professionals along the way that might teach us new things, inspire us and challenge us. It's my hope that you leave feeling just that little bit happier, enlightened, and closer to who you are. I'll leave that one up to you.
For now, let's live curiously! Join me and Press Play.

E3: Martial Arts Trained Health & Fitness Coach, Callum Perera: Understanding where our self-expectations come from and mastering the art of teaching.
On Press Play this week we meet Callum Perera. Callum began his training in Martial Arts when he was eight years old, which led him to the Army Reserves, to running his own gym, to a degree in Philosophy, and the list goes on! He’s now a successful business owner and takes a holistic approach to personal training and fitness.
We discuss his outlook on fitness, how to truly teach successfully, the power of language, embracing the ability to surrender, and getting to the truth behind why we really desire to be fitter and healthier. It’s a truly fascinating conversation that is eye-opening, complex, unconventional, and inspiring all at the same time.
Callum always surprises me, he continues to leave me with little nuggets of wisdom that I find myself thinking about weeks after our conversation. Sometimes more than a year later something will just click, and I'll have an ‘a-ha I get it now!’ moment! I am so happy to be able to share this conversation with you all. I hope you enjoy it just as much as we did!

E2. Dr Brooke Starling: The real causes of physical pain in the body and how trauma affects the nervous system.
On Press Play this week we speak to the founder and director of Star Osteo and Wellness, Brooke Starling. Brooke is an Australian-trained osteopath, with a Health Sciences degree, majoring in Nutrition and Family, Society and Health. She’s worked in regional Victoria, London and many Aboriginal communities, with a natural ability to connect with and understand a patient’s health.
What drew me to Brooke was her holistic approach to Osteopathy. Her focus is to get to the route behind the physical problem, which isn’t often what her patients expect it to be.
Brooke goes into how she discovered her career path, and her ability to trust her intuition when it comes to assessing each person she meets. She discusses how the body responds to and remembers trauma, and how her own difficult past led her to where she is today. Brooke’s passion is to help people get to the true source of their pain, creating a happier and healthier lifestyle for her clients moving forward.
I absolutely loved everything about this conversation. Enjoy!!
