Colonoscopy still to come on Monday but with nothing on my PET scan we know there’s no tumours lurking around 🥳
After my PET scan they found a thyroid nodules and after an ultrasound wanted to biopsy it.
Most thyroid nodules are nothing and they’re common - however once you’ve had cancer - nothing is nothing in your brain anymore. Your brain decides to spiral and tell you the worst case scenario. The anxiety is so high. My mood all over the place.
But now I get to breathe a little easier. And continue to be so grateful 🥹 F**k me. What a ride.
Check your poo.

From Mild Symptoms to a Stage 4 Bowel Cancer Diagnosis: Jodi Lee’s Story with Nick Lee from Jodi Lee Bowel Cancer Foundation (JLF) 🫶
Comment 121 below to listen now 🎧
Nick started the Jodi Lee Foundation after losing his wife Jodi to bowel cancer when she was just 41.
She had mild symptoms so went to a GP, and the following night she was being flown to Bangkok for emergency surgery.
Nick was then told in the waiting room that Jodi had Stage 4 Bowel Cancer and had 2 years to live.
Nick has since gone on to create the Jodi Lee Foundation - dedicating his life to raising awareness around bowel cancer and helping Australians to act before it gets too late.
I wanted to chat with Nick to hear what it was like for him, from the moment Jodi was diagnosed, how they broke the news to his 2 kids, and the impact Jodi’s legacy has had on bowel cancer awareness.
Hard no ❌

I used to eat these all the time as well - and the research is showing over and over again that the interruption to our gut microbiome through things like these is a contributing factor to early on set bowel cancer - and fu**ed if I’m going through that again in 20 years time.
1️⃣ Processed meat - ham, salami, bacon, chorizo. A Class 1 carcinogen with direct links to cancer, high in sodium, loaded with nitrates and a poor source of protein. Not even sad about it - might have been dirty about the bacon for a week - over it now. Me living to 100 is more important.
2️⃣ Artificial colours - horrendous for our guts and especially our brains. Links to cancer, inflammation, behaviour. Mostly banned in Europe - good ol’ Australia still allows them.
3️⃣ McDonalds - I mean it makes me feel fu***ng foul and sick but the way it’s made full of so many harmful chemicals and preservatives and after knowing that I just can’t think of anything worse going in my mouth to be honest.
4️⃣ Fizzy energy drinks. 2012 Danni loved a sugar free V or 5 of an afternoon. But my golly - wouldn’t touch them now. Ruining your gut and actually doesn’t even give me energy funnily enough - that comes from real food and exercise.
My health is the most important thing in my life. When your own mortality is thrust in front of you - you take nothing for granted. Honouring my body through whole foods, water, sleep, movement and fun - is the key to longevity and a happy life.
If you were to ask me where to start with your health journey around food - i’d start here - remove these and then gradually make other changes.

A new generation of girls are coming and they are going to be unstoppable 💪
Hit follow Danni Duncan - Womens health & fitness coach To join me in raising tough girls 💪
They show off. They are noisy. They hold their own. They’re strong. They body check their muscles not their bones. They talk back. Not because they’re rude because they have a voice. They aren’t inferior than their brother. They match his energy and some.
And while they drive me nuts right now it is setting the ground work us millennials never had. That we had to work damn hart at undoing.
I want to be their biggest inspiration. It starts with me.
When I’m strong. When I’m confident. When my relationship with take is solid. They have a better chance of being the same.
So Mumma - deep breaths - we are growing the next generation of powerful women 👊🏻

BYRON RETREAT OCT 11-14 October 🤩
Comment RETREAT below to grab your spot.
Somewhere along the way, you became an expert at looking after everyone else.
The kids.
The partner.
The work.
The house.
The endless to-do list.
And while you’re busy holding everything together, you slowly stop checking in with the one person who needs you too... YOU 💛
Going on a retreat isn’t about escaping your life. It’s about reconnecting with yourself within it.
Four days to move your body, nourish yourself, have meaningful conversations, laugh until your cheeks hurt, filling your cup and remembering who you are outside of all the roles you play.
Because putting yourself first isn’t selfish.
It’s necessary.
And the women who come on retreat never regret it.
If you’ve been craving a reset, this might just be your sign ✨
Comment RETREAT below and I’ll send you the details.
Thank me later 🙈
Comment RESET below to find out how to lose fat the good old fashion way without losing your lips in the process 😏
When you lose fat too quickly not only do you lose muscle first your skin doesn’t get the chance to naturally contract. Resulting in loose sagging skin, stretch marks and elasticity.
This happens anywhere you’ve had excess fat. Including your l***a.
Fat loss is science - it’s the habit formation and adherence to a new norm that’s hard. Changing your mindset around food and your body. Education around food and your behaviours. Injections can’t teach that. And I tell ya what - as a coach - I’m way cheaper and less invasive than a l***aplasty 😉
I share free fat loss and mindset tips daily on my story. So hit follow Danni Duncan - Womens health & fitness coach and start making positive changes 💪🫶
