Hattie Boydle - 'From rock bottom to champion of the world - how to transform yourself' #132

Episode 132 hosts Hattie Boydle based in Sydney, Australia.   Hattie is the World Beauty Fitness and Fashion (WBFF) World champion, personal trainer, body positivity advocate, motivational speaker and business woman.   We first explore where Hattie's story started, taking up gymnastics as a 4 year old to reach elite status and win national awards in her disciplines. We then confront Hattie's battle with anorexia, learning how she went from rock bottom and being hospitalised to finding the motivation and mental strength to overcome her illness. In this very open discussion, we get insights into how eating disorders can manifest and what Hattie did to recognise and combat those unhealthy thoughts. Using this new focus, Hattie became a personal trainer to help others before discovering pro fitness modelling. She learnt to channel all of her past adversities into this new challenge, transforming both her mentality and physical body to win the WBFF world title (fitness modelling world champion) in 2016. We contrast her thought processes when she was ill to competing on a world stage as a body builder and the power of positive thinking. Hattie gives us insights into her current approach to food as a fuel for her training, her new business ventures and how she uses her experience to influence young women when it comes to body positivity.   SUPPORT THE PODCAST: - If you enjoy listening to IA every week and would like to help support the podcast, we have two simple donation options: I Love IA! & Buy us a coffee!    IA PATREON: Did you know that we have an online injectable education and business mentoring service called IA Patreon?

Miranda Pearce - 'The injector mindset and how to supercharge your aesthetics business' #129

Episode 129 hosts Miranda Pearce, an aesthetic marketing, mindset and motivation expert based in Manchester, UK. She co-founded SkinViva, a leading cosmetic clinic with her husband Dr Tim Pearce and is self-taught in aesthetic marketing. We open by discussing one of the most difficult conundrums that every injector encounters on their journey - how to price themselves within an incredibly saturated market? We'll drill down into what the value of a skilled injector is and how to feel confident charging appropriately for that. We then explore how to improve communication and the value from our patients including reducing no shows, handling last-minute cancellations, increasing word of mouth referrals and improving patient loyalty. Miranda shares her expertise on motivation and mindset when it comes to one of the most common barriers that injectors come up against- how to combat 'injecting anxiety', dealing with limiting beliefs and recovering their confidence after a complication.

Dr Tom Van Eijk – 'What happened when the government regulated cosmetic injectables in Holland?' - #127

Episode 127 hosts Dr Tom Van Eijk based in Amsterdam, Holland. Dr Van Eijk is a globally-renowned cosmetic doctor and Holland’s most famous injector. He left surgical training in 2003 to focus on injectables and by 2005, had begun teaching students. He is especially well known for his ‘ferning’ and lip ‘tenting’ techniques which he has presented all around the world.  In many of our previous episodes we've speculated what a formal pathway in training in cosmetic injectables might look like - and so we found the only country who has done just that. In 2019 in Holland, cosmetic injectables became recognised as a medical speciality and a training programme was created under governmental control. Dr Van Eijk gives his unfiltered opinion on this and tells us what led to these changes. We explore whether it was necessary and assess what Australian injectors could learn from the Dutch experience.
