The Coach Keam Podcast: Recent Episodes
Ben Keam
I'm on a mission to help Coach and educate as many people as I can to start helping them achieve the results that they deserve. This podcast I will be discussing all things health, fitness & Mindset. From all things nutrition, training and how to change your mindset to think more positively and break through whatever might be holding you back from being the best version of yourself.
In this episode I had one of my all time favourite conversations with an amazing and inspiring human being and also a Boxing Coach Zach Vickers. In this episode Zach shares his story of what led him to initially getting started with Boxing up until now where he is an online and in person Boxing coach as well as the head Boxing Coach for Rumble Boxing Australia.
During our conversation we talked about all aspects of Boxing not only did we discuss the physical component and some key areas of how we view Boxing from a coaches perspective but also the profound effects Boxing has had on not only our own personal mental, emotional and spiritual health but how we have seen it effect our clients in the same way.
I highly recommend this episode to anyone who is thinking about trying Boxing, is a Boxer, a Boxing enthusiast, wanting to become or currently is a Boxing Coach.
Very grateful for Zach giving up his time to have this inspiring conversation with me. You can find Zach on Instagram: @theonlyzacheyv. He also has an amazing online program which you can also find on instagram: @fluidformpilates.
Jayde Tayor represented Australia at the 2012 Olympics as a Hockey player.
In this episode of the Coach Keam Podcast she shares her journey to the olympics and the many ups and downs along the way. She discusses the shift in mindset she had that enabled her to be able to play at such an elite level.
Jayde then shares the struggles that most athletes experience when their sporting career is over and their identity is then challenged.
Then we discuss how she got into business now being the owner of one of the biggest low sugar ice cream companies in the country called Denada. We chat about how she has been able to transfer her habits and skillsets as an athlete into her business and the struglles she has had to face along the way.
Jayde has achieved so much in her short time on earth and is an inspiration to other young females out there looking to chase their dreams wether that be in sport, business or whatver they choose to do.
In the episode I sat down with a great friend of mine Ben Hamlett who is a health and performance coach and athlete based in Hobart Tasmania.
We had an awesome conversation where Ben was very vulnerable in not only sharing some of his awesome achievements as a high level Football (soccer) player but also some of his greatest struggles he went through off the field. He then shares some of the practices he leaned on to help him create the self awareness he needed to overcome the many challenges life threw at him on his journey. He was able to look inwards and work on himself which has enabled him to continue being a great athlete but to then now share his experiences with others as a health and performance coach.
This was one of my favourite conversations I have had on the podcast and I hope any listeners can get something out of this episode that can have a positive impact on their life.
For more information about Ben you can find him at Art Gym in Hobart, Tasmania or check him out on Instagram. Links below:

In this episode I sat down with Coach Daniel Mogoai and we had a really great conversation on a variety of different topics.
We spoke about training, nutrition, Meditation, Boxing and a whole lot more. I also got him to open up and be vulnerable in this episode when I ask him my big 5 questions to get to know him on a deeper level. I really appreciate Dan opening up with me on the podcast.
Dan has certainly become someone who I admire in this industry through his strong passion to be the best coach he can be and help as many people he can through proper periodised training programs, nutrition which his partner Chanise plays a large role in educating their clients on in their business as well as Dan's unique people skills and ability to help people reach their full potential mentally as well as physically.

It has been well over 12 months since I last recorded a podcast. A lot has happened since my last episode. I needed to take a break so I could put my focus into other aspects of my life. However I'm super excited to be back recording podcasts again. In this episode I share with you what I have been doing over the past 12 months. I open up and share with you my greatest struggles that have come with packing up my life during a pandemic and moving to a new state and how I overcome the struggles of losing myself and my mental health hitting rock bottom.
I then go on to speak about embracing your imperfections. As this is one of my mantras for 2022. As I know perfectionism effects so many people and prevents them from living their happiest and most fulfilled life (as it has done for me).
I hope that those who listen to this podcast may be able to grab something from it and implement it into their own life and it impacts them positively.
Thank you so much to all of those who take the time to listen to this episode it really means a lot.

Slav is by far one of the best Exercise Physiologists I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Not just for his ability to help his clients with managing and rectifying their injuries but also his communication with other fitness professionals to get their clients back to their best in the quickest and safest way possible.
We had an awesome conversation about common injuries he sees and he shares some ways you can prevent them, how to manage them and how to fix them.
Injuries are a part of life so I highly recommend this episode to every body who wants to stay injury free or learn how to manage injuries.
In this episode I share with you how I help my clients get results through creating positive lifestyle habits.
Focusing on just the outcome (goal) alone in my experience is not the mindset that is needed to achieve sustainable results. Solely focusing on the outcome can sometimes be a negative mindset for people that will prevent them from achieving their results and then sustaining these results. As basing your success and happiness purely on losing a certain amount of weight in my opinion isn't the best way to think about health & fitness.
I get my client to focus on simple actions that they are ready, willing and able to do consistently in order to help them form habits that will overtime get them achieving the results that they deserve.
