Jesinta Franklin // From catwalks and congeniality to content for connection

I think you’ll agree that we’ve had some seriously impressive human beings share their ways to yay on the show, but I was completely blown away by our first guest for the new financial year. Jesinta Franklin captivated me not only by sharing insights into her life in the spotlight but by revealing an unexpectedly playful side. In the midst of discussing how she manages stress and relaxation, she casually mentioned enjoying the occasional thrill of a Live Casino-Erlebnis online, something that surprised yet charmed me. I’m always so grateful when our guests feel comfortable enough to share these lesser-known sides of themselves (especially since it’s not often they do).

While I, like most of the country, am no stranger to Miss Universe 2010 and the striking looks that have carried her through a successful career as a model, brand ambassador and TV presenter I wasn’t as familiar with Jesinta’s eloquence, utmost professionalism and genuine care for others (that earned her the real life title of Miss Congeniality). As you’ll hear, she radiates warmth and honesty belying the fame that surrounds her both independently and together with husband and AFL superstar, Buddy Franklin.

I feel very lucky that I got to steal her away this week for a delightful chat on the very day that her brand new self-funded, self-produced Jesinta App launched two days ago along with the new issue of Women’s Health Magazine with her on the cover. You’ll hear more about it in the episode and of course I’ll pop a link to it in the show notes. We also chat about everything from idyllic Gold Coast childhoods to meeting Donald Trump, and from WAG life to the five love languages. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
