His unmistakable statuesque figure can be spotted from across a footy field, long ways.When you saw him, you'd recognise him instantly - and then think…Hang on, is he walking with a cane? Michael Klim is everything Osher's podcast is about. He's a man who, when faced with immense adversity - eventually found his way to acceptance and action. Sure, there were bumps in the road - but it's important to hear that no success is linear. Michael is a truly joyful man, despite the immense physical challenges he currently faces. Michael's new book KLIM is out right now, and it is more than a sporting memoir.

In this episode of the Australian Property Show we're joined by former Australian Olympic Swimming coach Bill Nelson. If you haven't heard Bill speak before, strap yourself in, because this episode is a crash course on greatness. I'm lucky to have been working with Bill over the past 6 months, and during this time his insights, influence, and positive outlook on life continue to blow me away. He's been called ‘the success guru at the heart of Penrith's rise to the top of the NRL. A little while ago it was Olympic champion Kieren Perkins who said: “Bill has the expertise, insight, and understanding into what makes a champion” It's said that Bill's unique approach enables him to help people get the absolute best out of themselves and those around them. Their results bear testament to this. Bill personally coached Daniel Kowalski, Mathew Dunn, Scott Miller, Michael Klim, Nicole Stevenson, Linley Frame, and Duncan Armstrong during a distinguished career. But it's the results he is able to help regular people like you and me achieve that makes him much much more than just a coach to the sporting elite… Throughout the episode, we cover: Lessons from 10-years of coaching Australian Olympians Bill's super simple method for living a happier life The number 1 thing we can give our children to help them lead a fulfilling life The 3-most important ingredients for realising your potential; and Why we must re-define failure if we're ever to succeed Thanks for tuning in and please enjoy this episode of The Australian Property Show featuring Bill Nelson.

What would it feel like to have the very thing that mad you great - your body, strength and co-ordination - slowly and painfully taken away from you? As a swimmer, Michael Klim was on top of the world - he was literally ‘World Swimmer of the Year'. Trips to the Olympics, medals of every colour, 21 world records AND his face on the cover of a Foo Fighters Album, Michael really did have it all. However, in 2022 Michael was diagnosed with a life changing condition, wherein your body attacks it's own tissue - chronic inflammatory demyelination polyneuropathy (CIDP). In this episode, Hugh, Ryan and Josh chat to Michael about his equally impressive life out of the pool, and how his CIDP diagnosis has taught him a lot about identity, grief and relationships. In 2023, Michael partnered with Australian Red Cross Lifeblood to help raise awareness for the vital role blood donation plays in not just his life, but the 1 in 3 Australians who will need blood products in their lifetime.

Olympic Swimming Gold Medallist Michael Klim joins Karen Tighe to discuss his battle with the neural condition CIDP, and talks about the Klim Swim Challenge, raising funds for Brainwave Australia.
Men's 4x100 meter freestyle relay at the 2000 Summer Olympics was held on September 16, 2000 at the Sydney International Aquatic Centre in Sydney, Australia. The Australians won an Olympic gold medal for the first time in 36 years, and they did it in front of their delirious home fans. Australians Michael Klim (48.18), Chris Fydler (48.48), and Ashley Callus (48.74) won the gold medal in a time of 3:13.67 thanks to Ian Thorpe's anchor leg of 48.30, after he had lost the lead to Gary Hall, Jr. of the United States at the 350-meter mark. By setting the pace early in the race, Klim was able to beat the previous world record set by his Russian training partner Alexander Popov in 1994 by 0.03 seconds. Hall wrote on his blog before the 4 x 100 meter freestyle relay, " "It is my unreliable opinion that we will decimate the Australian 4x100m relay team like a band of guitars. The United States has always performed admirably under pressure. This time, however, the logic in my far-flung head tells me that the United States won't have it so simple to dominate the oceans." After the race, in response to Hall's comments, the Australians air-guitared on the pool deck. Hall commented on the race's significance, saying, "I can't even play the guitar correctly... As far as relay races go, that was the best one I've ever participated in. My hat is out to the legendary Ian Thorpe. Finishing stronger than I did, he beat me." Michael Klim, one of the Australians on the winning 4x100 relay team, remembered that "First to come over and offer his congratulations was swimmer Hall. His rough treatment of others did not make him any less of a sportsman ". Hall (48.24), Anthony Ervin (48.89), Neil Walker (48.31), and Jason Lezak (48.42) of Team USA finished in second place, 1.25 seconds behind the Australians' world record time from five years ago, but still set a new American record with a time of 3:13.86. At the same time, the Brazilian relay team of Fernando Scherer (49.79), Gustavo Borges (48.61), Carlos Jayme (49.88), and Edvaldo Silva Filho (49.12) won bronze with a time of 3 minutes, 17 seconds, and 40 seconds. While the rest of the championship field included the likes of Germany (3:17.77), Italy (3:17.85), Sweden (3:19.60), and France (3:21.00), Popov's Russia was disqualified due to an early relay launch from Andrey Kapralov on the lead-off leg. The Dutch team, without Pieter van den Hoogenband in the morning preliminary heats, nonetheless managed to set the fastest time with a 3:18.32, but they were eliminated from the final race after Dennis Rijnbeek made an illegal early jump during the second exchange.

Lindy Klim ladies and gents! The Balinese-Australian fashion identity who has captivated the public with her trademark sophistication for nearly two decades. Away from the black tie occasions and runway shows, Lindy leads a full but low-key life in Bali as a devoted mother to her four children Stellar, Rocco, Frankie and Goldie, and husband, Adam Ellis. With four kids, Lindy knows a thing or two when it comes to women's intimate care. Sick of the typical taboo connotations associated with talking about the female vulva, the lack of conversation and (readily available) information on post-pregnancy care - Lindy made it her mission to create a wellness brand, Fig Femme, that encourages an open and honest self-care routine. Its “skin care for down there”… Care for the vulva (or as Hays calls it in the episode- the Vagootz) is no less important than care for any other body surface. So, why is there so much shame around this? We dive into this discussion and how there has been push back around some of her products which are now selling out on POOSH and The Iconic.We talk all things about Lindy's wild ride into Motherhood, living in Bali, Covid, breastfeeding and pumping on her wedding day to Michael Klim, how she started her wellness brand- Fig Femme, advice for mums in the 4th trimester, catering to different children through different parenting styles and so much more. Lindy is so incredibly warm, genuine and open with her stories- everyone will gain something from this episode. She is STUNNING and we love her so much.This episode is brought to you with the help of our Sponsor, Enbacci who are proud supporters of the Pumped Podcast.
