This is a special bonus episode of The Shift Foundation's podcast, The Conversation Collective. Shift teamies Tiki and Greer jump on the mics to kōrero with the new CEO of Sport New Zealand Ihi Aotearoa, Raelene Castle.
At Shift we are big believers in the positive benefits that being active has on wellbeing, so we were excited to check in with the new CEO, hear her thoughts on physical activity, and kōrero some of the issues and opportunities that Shift is super passionate about!
Raelene Castle has worked both in Aotearoa New Zealand and Australia as a high profile sport executive. Her appointment at Sport New Zealand Ihi Aotearoa marks the first time that a woman has held this top position at the organisation.

During the episode we mentioned the IUHPE World Conference on Health Promotion held in Rotorua in 2019. Reading the legacy document "Waiora - Indigenous Peoples' Statement for Planetary Health and Sustainable Development" helped us to better our understanding of the interconnectedness between human health and wellbeing, climate change, and planetary health. We would like to acknowledge the authors of this statement and the importance of Indigenous peoples' voices on these topics.

This week's episode is the final episode of Series One of The Convo Co podcast! To celebrate we are getting Shifty and talking about MOVING YOUR BODY!
For this special episode we invited Fran McEwen, founder of The Shift Foundation, to kōrero with co-host Kaitlyn about physical activity and how it relates to ALL other aspects of wellbeing. This week we also share some wonderful stories and comments from you, our lovely listeners, on your experiences of keeping active as young women! Kaitlyn and Fran share how their relationship to keeping active has changed throughout their lives and they address some of the negative experiences around moving your body, such as body shame. They talk about motivation, mindset and mental health. Oh, and the fact that sometimes simply putting one foot in front of the other is enough. This is a conversation about how shifting your body ultimately has the power to shift your mind.

This week we're interrupting our usual podcast program... to bring you the latest LOCKDOWN LOWDOWN episode from the Convo Co team!
Ok, has anyone else found that simply choosing a cool outfit for your day turns out to be an essential part of your routine and sense of self?
In our final Lockdown Lowdown bonus episode of this series Ronia and Gina reflect on how their lives have been shaped by lockdown - and how easing back to normal isn't so easy after all! These smart young women give the lowdown on their anxieties about venturing back into society (dentist appointments during level two anyone?!) and chat about how too many video calls can just make your head hurt! In a wonderfully honest conversation, Ronia and Gina reflect on their, at times painful, self-consciousness whilst listening to their episode recordings, they 'fess up to procrastination, and they share tips on looking out for your wellbeing!
