Kicking things off, Chloe Craig dives into the world of health technology with her piece “Beyond Fitness Apps”. Remember the days when tracking your fitness meant jotting down notes in a sweaty journal? Well, Chloe explains how modern platforms like Femtek are harnessing the power of AI to provide personalised insights into our health, far beyond basic activity tracking. Her piece is a fascinating look at the future of personalised well-being and how technology is becoming a central player in managing our health holistically.

Then, we switch gears with Natalie Flynn, the founder & CEO equidi, who opens up a candid conversation on “Navigating Workplace Inequalities”. Natalie gets real with us about the gender biases that sneak into our work lives, often without us even noticing. She’s not just here to highlight the problem, though; she’s got strategies and heart-to-heart advice on how to tackle these biases head-on.

We’ve also got a super fascinating video interview with Beneficial Beer Co founder David Jackson who shares his journey from a year-long break from alcohol to launching a successful non-alcoholic beer company; our latest product review; book of the review and plenty more!

Beyond Fitness Apps: How Integrated Health Platforms are the Future of Personalised Well-being

We’ve come a long way from just counting steps and calories with our health apps – Do you remember the early days when they were all about logging your daily steps and maybe inputting what you had for lunch? Or even when your training plan suddenly came off paper and into your phone in a handy app.

Fast-forward to today, and we’re talking about integrated health platforms that cover everything from workouts and guided meditation to menstrual cycle tracking. Apps that know your body better than you know yourself, and intuitive suggestions that make you second guess if your phone is listening to you.

🍺 Non-Alcoholic Beer That’s Brewed For Humankind

Beneficial Beer Co is a multi award-winning, Australian non-alcoholic beer company. Brewed for humankind under solar power, and using techniques that ensure our beers are full-flavoured, we’re dedicated to being ‘Beneficial’ by name and by nature.

Founded to answer a personal need and to inspire others that there is a better way to drink, we’re on a mission to brew non-alcoholic Aussie classic beers, that taste like beer and ensure non-alc choices are more accessible, no matter where you are.

And that's a wrap on this issue of Balance the Grind! We hope the insights from Chloe and Natalie offer you fresh perspectives as you navigate your own health and workplace dynamics. It’s all part of our commitment to giving you the content that matters for living well and working smart.
