Heather is a bodybuilding athlete who is very passionate about the sport.

We cover various aspects of bodybuilding including her journey to get to where she is now and what it took for her to get to the top.

Also we discuss, pre and post show issues that athletes face when prepping or going through competition prep.

PED's (Performance Enhancing Drugs) use in bodybuilding is rife but its also almost like a taboo subject to talk about because for some, admitting to usage feels like something to be ashamed of or want to hide because of perceptions and all the opinions surrounding it, but does it have to be?
Is it not better for it to be discussed openly and honestly so an informed decision can be made to whoever wants to use them before they throw themselves into something that's potentially dangerous enough to kill you?
Join me as I talk to my guest Deborah where she openly discusses her experience and sheds light on the pros and cons of PED use.

I have with me my good friend and school mate Beth with whom I discuss cultural differences between home and the western world.

We also touch on racial issues and what life is like bringing our kids up away from home.

We reminisce on life growing up in our homeland Kenya and go through where we are at now.

This was a really fun episode.

Beth is a story teller and will get you hooked on listening to her because she has a way with words.
