Life With Danni Duncan
Life won’t wait - we get one shot - and you are in the driver's seat. You can Do Hard Things. I’m Danni Duncan…featured fitness and nutrition coach, author, speaker and mum of 4 amazing kiddies (including twins). Online I’ve shared it all, my pregnancy journeys, miscarriages, why you SHOULDN’T be eating cereal for breakfast, how to make the perfect sourdough and helping you to see that YOU can do hard things. The things I’ve said online have often got me into a bit of trouble, and its because I’m not afraid to call people out on their shit … I’m not afraid to discuss taboo topics and I don’t believe that any of us need to live an average life where we do what society is telling us is ‘normal’ … instead its our job to question “Why is that normal?” And is that what we want for our own life? This podcast is going to be a space where I chat to experts (and share my own thoughts) on WHY we aren’t living our full potential. Where you can get the facts that will help you to get your happiness, motivation and confidence back. Taking the first steps can be hard, but I’m here to help you make it a little easier to face your fears and live your best life - every, single, day. I will make you feel uncomfortable, I will make you think differently but you may just wanna hear it. If you want to make this year the year that you do something for yourself, you’re in the right space. Click Follow and Join me Every Thursday

Chris is back on the couch and this one goes places… You never know what you're going to get in one of our joint episodes 😂
We start with the woman who sh*t herself mid-way through a HYROX event and kept going anyway… before somehow ending up in a full blown debate about sex after four kids.
Chris has also been dealing with his own health scare behind the scenes, a gastroscopy, a strict new diet, and getting banned fro...
We've never been more connected. A text, a voice drop, a scroll, and we know exactly what everyone in our life is doing without ever actually seeing them. So why, when it actually comes to showing up in person, committing to a night out, being in someone's presence, does it suddenly feel like the hardest ask in the world?
That's the question I've been sitting with. And it came from something pretty humbling. Chris and I planned a tr...
2 out of 3 Australian women report bias or discrimination in their own healthcare. Most of it around diagnosis and treatment. If you've ever left an appointment with more questions than answers, this episode is for you.
My guest today is Dr Mariam Chaalan, a Sydney based GP, women's health advocate, and the doctor behind Instagram's Ask The Doctor. She also cohosts the Well by Mamamia Podcast. The second we met in person we didn't s...
This is the episode I told my own team I might get cancelled for, and I don't care.
For twenty years, doctors told me I had IBS. Cramps so bad I thought labour couldn't be worse. Crawling into my mum's room as a kid, thinking something was actually wrong with me. Turns out something was. Pregnant with my fourth baby, that same "IBS" turned out to be a tumour.
I'm in remission now. And since finishing chemo, my IBS hasn't just improve...
There's a kind of trauma that doesn't have a name yet. Birth trauma finally gets talked about. Postpartum depression finally gets talked about. But feeding trauma, what happens when your feeding journey ends in a way you never chose, still isn't validated. Nicola D'Souza is a breastfeeding counsellor and infant feeding practitioner on a mission to change that.
Nicola's own feeding trauma began in NICU. She shares the story of a nurs...
Aneliese was fit, confident, and in the Air Force in her twenties. Then came two kids, a caking business, and in November 2022, a cancer diagnosis. Eighteen months of chemo, surgery and radiation later, she'd beaten it. But what came next was harder than the diagnosis itself.She describes it as climbing straight out of one well into another. The first was cancer, forcing her to fight to survive. The second had no doctors, no urgenc...
Jess Blizzard spent over a decade being told she was making it up. Anxious. Attention seeking. Overdramatic. At 33, after years of surgeries and misdiagnoses, her specialist gave her two options: a full hysterectomy, or a script for medically induced menopause. He wrote it on the spot. She never filled it.
In this episode Jess opens up about the pain, the fertility struggles, and the moment she rang her mum in tears, ready to just g...
I asked you what your biggest excuses were and honestly, you delivered. So today I'm mythbusting them, one by one, with so much love and zero shame.
I don't have time. I'm too tired. I'll start Monday. I can't afford it. I don't know where to start. I've already ruined the day so what's the point. I'm not fit enough to exercise. Sound familiar? I've said every single one of these to myself at some point too.
We dig into why time was ...
5 Habits That Will Change Your Life: My Honest Health & Fitness Philosophy
Everyone's showing you the before and after photo. The six pack. The number on the scales. But nobody shows you the part where you actually like who you are.
In this episode I'm sharing the philosophy behind everything I do and teach. Why most diets fail, why calories in calories out isn't the whole story, and the five habit framework I use with every sing...
Dr Michaela Sorensen is a GP, a Jodi Lee Foundation ambassador, and a cancer survivor. She's been on both sides of a diagnosis and it changed everything about how she practises medicine.
At 34, with a two-month-old baby at home, a routine dentist appointment revealed a rare stage four cancer on the roof of her mouth. A month in hospital, four 12-hour surgeries, and an NG tube later, she came out the other side with a completely dif...
Chris is not a runner. But last weekend he ran 42.195 kilometres anyway.
This is our honest debrief of the Gold Coast Marathon. What went well, what fell apart, and what we'd do differently before the New York Marathon in 15 weeks.
We talk about how we made marathon training work around four kids, full time work, and Chris still playing football through the entire prep. Zone 2 training, recovery, why mobility matters more tha...
Olga Newman is the creator of the Face Up method and she'll take five years off your face in 30 minutes. But that's not why I wanted to have her on the podcast.
I'd just had my first treatment with Olga when we recorded this, and what started as a conversation about aesthetics went so much deeper than I expected.
We talked about why stress and jaw tension show up on your face faster than any cream or filler can fix, why Botox doesn...
I want to have a super honest conversation about weight loss injections because it is getting out of control.
We have mums doing shady black market deals on Facebook, trying to do EVERYTHING but eat better and exercise. I’m tired of it but not only that - I’m scared of what our future is going to look like. And especially, what that future is going to look like for our kids.
I brought fitness coach Bailey Haslam (@ba...
It is still Bowel Cancer Awareness Month and I wanted to take this opportunity to step behind the mic for a raw, solo check-in 12 months after my diagnosis and surgery.
I’m not going to lie, I get really emotional in this one. It is wild how fast a year goes by, but looking back, cancer completely shattered and rebuilt the way I look at life. I am opening up about things I usually keep close to my chest, like navigating a low...
Nick started the Jodi Lee Foundation after losing his wife Jodi to bowel cancer when she was just 41.
She had mild symptoms so went to a GP, and the following night she was being flown to Bangkok for emergency surgery.
Nick was then told in the waiting room that Jodi had Stage 4 Bowel Cancer and had 2 years to live.
Nick has since gone on to create the Jodi Lee Foundation - dedicating his life to raising awareness around bowel canc...
Today’s episode is to support Bowel Cancer Awareness, and I really wanted to have this conversation because bowel cancer is something we often still think of as an “older person’s disease”.
But we’re now seeing more and more younger people being diagnosed, and I think for a lot of us, especially women and mums, it can be really easy to explain away symptoms.
We’re tired because we’re busy.

In honour of Bowel Cancer awareness, I wanted to chat to Chris about his side of the story when I was diagnosed with Stage 2 Cancer back in August last year.
But in classic Duncan fashion, of course it’s not all doom and gloom 😂 We’re also talking about how hard being gluten free has been for Chris, mental breakdowns before 40, and why it’s so hard for men to go to the doctor. Is your husband like this too??
If you’ve ever felt like you’re too busy, too tired, too old, too unsure, or too deep in motherhood to chase something for yourself, this episode is going to feel like a biiiiig exhale.
Today I’m chatting with the beautiful Colleen Callander. She was the CEO of Sportsgirl, she’s a mum, an author, a speaker, and honestly just one of those women who makes you feel like you can do big things too. She has sooo m...
Who should avoid Ozempic? Who is Ozempic for? What are the side effects no one is talking about?
Today’s episode is Part 2 of my interview with Amelia Phillips, a nutritionist, exercise scientist and co-founder of Vitality 360, to help us unpack Ozempic, GLP-1 medications and what women in midlife really need to know before considering them.
In Part 1 we spoke about what actually changes in perimenopause, why weight can feel ...
We recorded this from a bath in Bali…
Em and I have just wrapped my 8th retreat and are equal parts cooked, sweaty and ready to unpack everything that happened. What started as chaos (and a few random tangents) turned into some pretty honest chats about why people hold themselves back, why everything feels so hard, and what needs to change so that people can start being happy again.
Also… if you’ve ever be...
