Welcome back to the 11th episode of Bikini Down Under.

Today i interviewed Rhiannon Morgan, who went Pro at South Korea's Amateur Olympia in 2019.

This was a such a fun episode to record, we squeezed a lot into an hour and 15 minutes.

We delved into Rhiannon's competing history; the meaning of terms the judges may use when giving feedback and we answered a bunch of listener questions as well.

@rhiannon_ifbbpro background in Dance is obvious. If you're in the Auckland region Face to face is an option. For international listeners online coaching is available
