What's Right Within

Welcome to our Run Your Mind Series. These bite-sized mental skills sessions are designed to help you have your best possible running experience.

This conversation was originally recorded and released in 2021 in the days following Jess Fox's Gold and Bronze medal performances at the Tokyo Olympics (note the discussion of COVID quarantine). Fast-forward three years and Jess is the flagbearer for the Australian Olympic team in Paris, ready to express herself on the Olympic stage once again. We thought there no better way than to get into the Olympic spirit than by revisiting this inspiring conversation with the one and only, Jess Fox. Jess is the most successful individual slalom canoeist of all time, competing in the C1, K1 and extreme slalom events. Jess' mindset is truly world class. She's a fierce competitor and thrives on challenges, but brings real joy and humanity to the process. In this conversation, Jess unpacks how she has learned to use her mind to bounce back from disappointments, rise to the occasion and continually improve as she explores her potential.

Do you remember where you were on September 11, 2001? For our guest, Ron DiFrancesco, it was just another day in the office ... until it wasn't. Ron's office was on the 84th floor of the World Trade Centre - the second tower that was struck by a terrorist-hijacked plane. From here, Ron witnessed the world changed right before his eyes. In a conversation that breathes fresh perspective into the very meaning of life, Ron courageously shares his experience and reveals unforgettable insights into the resilience of the human spirit and why there is always cause for hope.  Ron has since developed a resiliency framework, been featured in Time magazine and become a keynote speaker at global positive psychology conferences and large corporations.  *A word of caution: Whilst this is an episode about hope and perspective, the traumatic nature of the events described may be distressing or triggering for some listeners. Discretion is advised, especially for younger audiences. 

Rory puts co-host Eloise Wellings in the hot seat to explore her journey in becoming who she is today. Eloise is one of Australia's most decorated distance runners, having competed at 2 Olympic games, 4 Commonwealth games and multiple world championships (and she isn't finished yet!). In the 2016 Rio Olympics, Eloise made the finals of both the 5000m and the 10,000m events. However, her journey has been anything but plain sailing, having been forced to miss three consecutive Olympics games through devastating last-minute injuries. Whilst Eloise has overcome and achieved a lot in her sport, running by no means defines who she is. Off the track, Eloise is a founder of the Love Mercy Foundation - an award winning not-for-profit that works in Northern Uganda to empower communities out of poverty sustainably. She is a mother of two and a sought after speaker on mindset and resilience.
