#56 Daniella Murphy WBFF Fitness: Childhood trauma and building a survivor mentality, manifesting your dreams, post-show binging, posing struggles

This week’s episode is with the unreadily inspirational Daniella Murphy, who is a WBFF Fitness (soon to be IFBB!) competitor and personal trainer from Wollongong.

Dani has been through a lot in her life and her story is one of survival and determination.  I am eternally grateful to Dani for sharing it with me (and you!) - it was incredibly inspiring to listen to and I will be surprised if anyone doesn’t feel inspired to go out and conquer their goals after this.

TW: This episode touches on themes of domestic violence, sexual abuse and suicide so if you’re not in a place to listen to this now, please save it for another time 💕

In this episode, Dani and I cover:⁠

• Prepping throughout COVID in 2020 and finally hitting the stage for the first time in 2021 
• Journaling and manifesting her way to a top 10 placing!
• Dani’s post show binging experience and concerns over developing disordered eating patterns
• What she’s doing differently the second time around
• Posing struggles!
• Childhood trauma and building a survivor mentality - Dani’s incredible journey
• Finding bodybuilding as part of the healing and growth journey
• Falling in love with discipline and structure
• If you want to heal… you need to deal
• Doing everything with intention 
• Feeling seen in other people’s journeys
• Advice for first time competitors

And SOOO much more!⁠
