I’m an Aussie health educator, keynote speaker and medical MC with big dreams who lives for a dance floor and knows the words to more pop songs than is probably normal
WELL HEY THERE
I’m CASEY
HEY! I’M SO GLAD YOU’RE HERE.
Take a load off, pour a cuppa and let me
tell you a story.
I want you to think about the person you love most in the entire world. Got them in your head? OK…
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been terrified of losing the people I love. I know - morbid, right? Along the way I have lost people I love, and I’ll lose more. That’s just the entry price of being alive.
I was so scared of losing my people, I developed a bit of an obsession with how we look after ourselves, how we don’t, and how the language we use can net us a different result - physically, mentally, socially and spiritually. Then, I turned my obsession into my career.
I’ve spent the last 15 years interviewing leading experts around Australia and the world, and now I share what they taught me with the public.
When I was younger I was convinced I was going to be a vet, or at very least the editor of Horse & Hound magazine. Fast forward to now and science and storytelling are still my two favourite things in the world. My hope is that something I write, say or share will make someone book the appointment, take the test, say the thing - an ACTION that means we get to stick around for the maximum time available to us.
I’m an author, speaker, facilitator, presenter and (ahem) award-winning host and producer, who has hosted Channel 10’s Everyday Health and Well Traveller programs, the ABC’s Tonic and written for all of the big digital platforms you know and love - Body & Soul, Mamamia, Women’s Health and news.com.au to name a few. I’m also the Founder of Next Of Kin - a publication and podcast that drives forward the much-needed conversation about how we take better care of ourselves, and the people we love most.
But I’m not preachy, in fact - far from it…
I’m the first to admit I’ve struggled to reconcile my different sides – Party girl. Health journalist. Cheezel enthusiast. That is, until I learned to accept, embrace and love the fact that I can be all of those things at the same time, and then some. While the kitchen is where I most frequently channel my desire for the dance floor these days, you’ll still catch me dancing in the aisle at Woollies, and I’m learning to live with a fairly aggressive Netflix addiction. I mean, it’s all research… right?!
In short, I’m a professional seeker, sharing what I find. If that’s you, too - I wonder what we’ll find together.
