*Virtus Podcast Takeover*
This week, I've wrestled control of the Virtus Podcast microphone and recorded a special episode with my good friend Jasmine Birch.
Jas is a Performance Coach at Virtus and is currently completing her Bachelor in Physical Activity and Health Science.
If you haven't already, tune in to the first time Jas was on the podcast (Episode #86).
In today's ep, we reflect on the last 6 months since she last featured, discuss the transition from intern to coach, and talk about what is next for each of us.
Cheers to you all,
Coop.

Wednesday Jan 15, 2020
In this very special 100th official episode of the Virtus Performance podcast, we joined forces with the G.O.A.T Rick Mirabella of Runnez Fame, and the magnificent Jarryd 'Moo' Palser of doing lots of great things fame, to discuss mental health.
More specifically Pulse's journey with his own battles and triumphs. After being diagnosed with depression in 2019, I have been in awe of how moo has continued to put his own struggles front and centre as he learns how to best deal with and manage hit mental health.
During November he took over the weekly email to deliver this incredibly powerful piece of writing.
