In this raw and inspiring episode, we sit down with Dr Tim Leeming, chiropractor, sports nutritionist, and co-founder of Being Chiropractic in Gympie, QLD. Tim shares his incredible journey — from his early days as an athlete and movement coach to the traumatic birth of his first daughter, Sage, which completely reshaped his purpose and approach to health.
Alongside his wife, Dr Casie Leeming, Tim has since travelled the world studying with leading chiropractors and paediatric neurological experts. Now, as a passionate practitioner and father of two, he brings a deeply personal lens to his work, helping families and individuals reconnect to their nervous systems, their bodies, and their natural rhythms through chiropractic care and simple, intentional movement.
Quotes I owe a lot of my good character and values to many miles on that river. I learned hard work. persistance and dogged determination. Chiropractic just landed for me, it made sense. Chiropractic is helping the human body to experience health, performance and everything in between. Sage’s condition was a real moment of surrender. We were in a sympathetic state of flight or fight, confusion and grief. Understanding what disabilities she had was a heavy thing to carry. Emergency medicine was amazing and kept her alive. You can look at it as a whole with death at one end and vitality at the other. A symptomw ill do something or give you something to get rid of. We checked and adjusted Sage multiple times a day. We used music at 512Hz, essential oils, prayers, community, a Facebook group rooting for us, meditation and visualisation. A child goes through various stages from birth – 1: Breathe; 2: Turn the head; 3: Learn to suck and swallow; 4: Learn to digest and poop. As a father, a male, you just want to get in there and help… and you can’t. She chose well having us as parents. Sage is a very robust healthy kid. Fever is the perfect response to an invading pathogen. Have full faith and trust in the capacity of our body’s and babies body’s to do what they need to heal. Tony gave me such clarity, conviction and certainty. Life pulls us in the right direction. Be a beacon of hope, help and light. Life will always humble you. It is all my own responsibility and for me to figure out. Our health is our responsibility. It’s very rarely genes or bad luck. Nobody has your health in their hands, you do. We had help, guidance and colleagues from every angle. Many men would understand this, but Sage pulled me back home and realise my values hierarchy. It can be overwhelming but it is about the art of discernment. It takes time and repetition and you will get better as a skill but it has to be intentional. The spine is the taile of the brain. Take responsibilty for your own health. There is a depth of value with grandparents and elders. The generation has wisdom, guidance, a way of life and behaviours that are so important. The answers you are looking for may be a lot more simple than you think. We take the complex and make it really simple. I stand on the shoulders of giants.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
