S10 Ep7: ALJAŽ ŠKORJANEC ON BECOMING A DAD, AND THE STRICTLY CELEBS WHO SURPRISED HIM THE MOST

Waltzing onto the #MondayMile podcast this week - it’s dancer, choreographer and former @bbcstrictly pro @aljazskorjanec 🪩🕺   Aljaž is well-known for gracing our screens with his impressive moves for nine series of Strictly Come Dancing, winning the glitterball trophy in his very first year with @abbeyclancy.  Since his retirement from the show in March 2022, him and the wonderful @jmanrara have welcomed their baby girl Lyra to the world.    On our walk, we discuss what he enjoyed most about working on Strictly, his eventual decision to leave the show and the most surprising thing about training new celebrities…👀   We also chat about being a first-time dad, how him and Jeanette are adjusting to their new lifestyle and his favourite things about being a father. Other parents please weigh in – is changing nappies really therapeutic?   It was great to have you on, Aljaž!   Listen on your favourite podcast platform and watch on YouTube 💕   #mondaymile #aljazskorjanec #strictly #strictlycomedancing

Om Podcasten

Former Team GB double winter Olympian, and no broadcaster and author Aimee Fuller is on a mission to find the secrets for Monday motivation from some of the most successful sports men and women of our time and other well-known celebrities which will drop every week. Aimee will be probing for answers from the full spectrum of routines; the early birds who have finely tuned Monday mornings, to the late risers who struggle to get up before 11am. How do elite athletes find the motivation to kick start their week come rain or shine? How do celebrities deliver no matter what the time of day? What knowledge can they pass on?’ Each episode will drop on a Monday morning and plays out in real time. Aimee will meet each of her guests for a walk and a chat and over the course of the mile she will find out how they cope on a Monday morning - their idiosyncrasies, breakfast routines, alarm noises - and how, when they need to, find the motivation to kick-on through the week. Dropping every Monday as a bitesize 23-35 minute piece of content and weekly dose of motivation - right when you need it - sharing some of Britain's greatest athletes’ secrets on self-motivation, candid thoughts on what they struggle with and a sideways look at some of their more unusual morning habits.
