Competition Etiquette with Nikki Gayner - Episode 16

Send us Fan Mail Competition season is officially in full swing, so who better to help us navigate the unwritten rules of physie than the fabulous Nikki Gayner! Nikki returns to the pod to chat all things competition etiquette – those little things that can make a huge difference to your own day and everyone else’s. We cover: Why the time between heats is not the moment to dissect every mistake you think you made. Giving your fellow competitors a little grace (and sometimes a little space) when nerves are kicking in. The golden rule of comp day seating… your bags belong on the floor, not on the seats! How small acts of courtesy can make competition day run more smoothly for everyone. The difference between being friendly and knowing when someone just needs a quiet moment. Plenty of other little competition dos and don’ts that had us laughing along the way. As always, Nikki brings plenty of wisdom, a healthy dose of common sense, and a few laughs as we tackle the social side of competition that nobody ever really teaches you. Poddy Pick Nikki’s pick this week is a beauty favourite that’s survived countless competition days: Fenty Beauty Stunna Lip Paint in the shades Uncensored and Unlocked, available from Sephora. If you’re looking for a competition lip that stays put and photographs beautifully, Nikki reckons these are hard to beat. Whether you’re stepping onto the floor for your very first ribbon competition or you’re a seasoned campaigner, this episode is packed with reminders that good etiquette helps everyone have a better day. Pop your lippy on, leave your bag off the seats, and enjoy! Instinctive Health Evidence-based care focused on the connection between your gut, mind, and your overall wellbeing.
