In episode #33, we discuss Andy’s own background growing up with sports, his career change journey, how writing his book has influenced his own outlook, and more. Andy also shares his battle with anxiety, in hopes that it would help others who might be going through something similar.
What started out as a keen curiosity to learn more about his own strength and conditioning goals led to a career change from accounting to fitness. Andy once aspired to be a professional soccer player. While I don’t doubt he would’ve been a committed professional athlete, I’m grateful that he has found another way to make a tremendous positive impact. In addition to years devoted to fitness education and coaching, he is also now the co-author of Dynamic Balance - an insightful tour of “Integrating Principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine into Strength and Conditioning”.
Drawing on his master’s degree in exercise science and influenced by his 10-year stay in the United States, Andy has a unique outlook on health and athletic performance. You’ll find hints of traditional Chinese medicine integrated into his training philosophy, where harmony between all aspects of life is a prerequisite to optimal health and human performance

In episode #32, we discuss topics around cultural and gender differences in body image, the power of language that shapes our attitude towards mental health and illness, how we develop healthy identity with fitness and more.
Steph founded Body Banter in 2016 after realizing the powerful role that discussion and advocacy played in her own eating disorder recovery journey. Through providing opportunities for community-building, advocacy and open discussion, she hopes that Body Banter can amplify the voices of individuals and empower them to be the driving forces behind creating a more accepting and accommodating world. Her fascination with the relationship between language and mental health has led her to her current PhD studies in a joint program between the University of Hong Kong and local mental health charity Mind HK, where she is exploring how cultural context and conversations shape the ways we view mental health issues in our community. Her work is internationally recognized, and has been featured on media platforms such as BBC, Channel NewsAsia, NowTV, and Deutsche Welle. (www.bodybanter.com )

Jake Elliott Glibbery spent most of his life in unusual relationship with circadian rhythm, light and wake/sleep cycle. Having previously worked in finance for over 10 years, that exacerbated sleep issues, burning the candle at both ends and struggling to adapt body to a “9-5” schedule.
The unique sleep pattern led to an interest in maximising sleep length and quality, eventually creating Dormu with his co-creator who has a background in neuroscience, to collectively level-up the sleep quality Hong Kong, Asia, and beyond.
In this episode, I talk to Jake about the advantages of physical touch like boosting neurotransmitters positively, why some people are not comfortable with human touch, the interesting history of weighted blankets and the power of comfort transmitted through weighted blankets and more.

For me, I know him as all that AND someone who values passion in what he does, and as someone who takes pride in being a father and a husband.
If you’re listening from Hong Kong, I’m sure you would have heard Aaron’s name in anything. mental. Health. He had and still is pushing the envelope on tackling the city’s limited resources for mental health support. What started since his own battle with anxiety and panic attacks years ago, led him to take a deeper look inwards and the start of Talking Mental podcast where he talks to leading experts on topics that he finds important to him.
In this episode, Aaron and I talk about Bromance.

Welcome back to Tackling Minds, Series 2 called “Sup, Man”.
This series is dedicated to advocating mental muscle and emotional intelligence FOR men.
For those of you who are new to Tackling Minds and wondering why am I, as woman, doing this FOR men. Well, if you already think that I have manipulating, insincere motives other than the work for humanity, then, this podcast is MOST CERTAINLY, for you.
I believe we are more than our gender-based issues, that we, as humans are more similar than we are different in emotional needs like care, safety, desire, respect and also in feeling safe to SHOW love, to SHOW care, without the worry of being labelled as “intense” “too much” or the big one for guys, labelled as “sensitive” in a negative tone.
Until we’re able to whole heartedly move forward and build forward as a unit of amazing humans, there ARE gender-biased issues to address.
Personally, men’s work goes beyond altruism. It pains me to see the men in my life struggle with long-standing patriarchal practices - yes, blind patriarchy is crushing for men too. When I really thought about it, I realised that it is equal opportunities and equal choices that many of us really appreciate, regardless of gender.
You’re a woman and CHOOSE to want to raise your kids full time without the distraction of thinking you need to keep up a career and without being condemned by other people who think you’re a "JUST A STAY AT HOME MOM"? YES!
You’re a man and CHOOSE to want to raise your kids full time without the distraction of thinking you need to keep up a career and without being condemned by other people who think you’re a "JUST A STAY AT HOME DAD"? YES!
That is just one example of how it’s having the CHOICE that matters, and for us, within the social circles, to be supportive of our friends and families. Too many people are doing things that feel wrong to them purely because they think they would be disappointing parents, partners or anyone else they feel pressured to be a certain way that isn’t true to them being their full selves.
There are definitely more significant ways to push forward in this kind of work, I only hope that my small contribution here on this podcast is enough to spark conversations. Conversations that are catalysts for shifting perspectives that lead to change, no matter how small those changes are. It’s the small changes that amount to a big impact.
So, enjoy this series where I invite men on the show for potentially uncomfortable but important topics. The men on the show are already coaches themselves who work with other men in the mental health space, in health and wellness, in education and/or are in leadership roles at work and at home.
I maintain an open invitation for you, the listeners, to contact me with suggestions on who you think would be a great fit for the show and our mission. There are different topics on every episode, I hope the topics that resonate with you are on the show and if not, get in touch!
Side Note: The in-person initiative of this work is called Mental Muscle Mafia. Check us out on instagram @mentalmusclemafia and contact us if this is something you want to be a part of.

Today’s conversation is with Kay Kay Keung.
Kay Kay is a director for the Hong Kong Powerlifting Federation (HKPF). This Lululemon Hong Kong ambassador coaches powerlifting and weightlifting, as well as competes in the two sports. As a competitive athlete who swims, runs and plays lacrosse, Kay Kay emphasizes the strength to size ratio as the quality of body performance in relation to physical size. A mission she has been successfully carrying out through her endeavors such as co-founding Trybe in Hong Kong.
In an interview with South China Morning Post, Kay Kay said “Before it was hard for me to convince women it’s possible to work towards a pull-up [an exercise in which you hold onto a bar above your head and pull your body up until your chin is above the bar]. Now I’m teaching women to do a muscle-up [an exercise to strengthen the arms and upper body, lifting one’s own weight while hanging from a bar to a position above the bar]. I am seeing more goals like that, rather than just wanting to lose weight. That’s a change I really enjoy seeing,”
In this episode, Kay Kay shares how she manages rotating between coaching her competitive athletes and competing herself, managing different physical skills all at the same time, organized and competed at the hardest event in her competing experience, women in weightlifting and powerlifting, and the interesting dynamic between her and her fiancé (now husband) where she’s his coach.

If you’re out of the US, you can still fundraise to benefit TCO, and you can get any of their super cool merch like rash guards, tees, hoodies, bags, and more.

Today’s conversation is with Chris Collins. Chris is a martial artist, an actor, an action director, and a known name in the Hong Kong martial arts club circle. If you’re wondering why else that name sounds familiar to you, it’s probably because you’ve seen movies like Ip Man 4, Paradox, and Wolf Warrior. This US Marine veteran is nothing short of a motivational influence for his students and followers.
In this episode, Chris shared about his early influences of hardiness, how those experiences prepped him for military resilience, finding his own pursuit of excellence in everything he chooses, being malleable with his path and goals, perspective through fatherhood and why the act of contribution to our world is important.
Guys, I do apologize for the sound quality on this one as we ran into some tech issues but hey, this won’t be the last time you hear Chris on Tackling Minds!
