    Nov 16 2021
    In this week's episode we talk about ANXIETY and who better to do that with than clinical psychologist, executive coach and founder of The Anxiety Clinic, Dr Jodie Lowinger. Learn how her revolutionary approach, The Mind Strength Method can start you on the journey of less stress, more resilience and help you say farewell to the 3 am scaries. We chatted about making friends with uncertainty, the (decidedly unsympathetic) sympathetic nervous system, tricks for hijacking the amygdala and lots of useful stuff in-between. A great listen for anyone who suffers themselves or is looking for ways to support their loved ones. Like what you heard? Tell ya friends and write a review if you fancy! Cheers!

  • Fashion Mistakes & Life Lessons with Kirstie Clements

    Fashion Mistakes & Life Lessons with Kirstie Clements
    Oct 12 2021
    Ever wondered 'Why (the F*ck) did I buy that?' - You are not alone, my friend. It was wonderfully reassuring to hear that this week's guest - the ever-stylish Kirstie Clements (former Editor-In-Chief of Vogue Australia, best-selling author & columnist) has too suffered at the hands of a rash purchase. Her latest book, 'Why Did I Buy That?' is packed full of well-groomed wisdom and we dig into a whole bunch of it on the pod. We discuss everything from ageing gracefully, to what NOT to spend your money on. From why lip fillers are not flattering, to why you should apply the 30 x rule to new purchases. Do anti-ageing creams really work? Can I shop at Zara without being feeling like I am fuelling the fast fashion industry? Are designer shoes a good investment? Can I LIVE in activewear and still cling to some semblance of style? Tune in to find out. If you enjoy this week's episode I'd be tickled if you could show it some 5-star love. Thanking you!

    Being a Single Parent is hard. Fact.

If you are a single parent, considering this path or want to support anyone in your life who is, have a listen. It's a goodie. Like it? Please give it some love so other people can find it! Cheers!

  • How to Build Better Relationships (with ourselves and others) with Blake Worrall-Thompson

    How to Build Better Relationships (with ourselves and others) with Blake Worrall-Thompson
    Jun 14 2021
    In this episode, I chat with one of Australia's leading lifestyle and performance coaches, Blake Worrall-Thompson (BWT) about everything from shame to conspiracy theories. We discuss where women (and men) are going wrong in their relationships, why having a coach is so key to success and how hitting rock bottom was (probably) the best thing that ever happened to him. Blake's honesty and experience made him a great guest that I ended up waffling on for a little longer than usual - I hope you enjoy it! P.S. Leaving a review will make you blindingly attractive. Fact ;)

  • How to Be a Better (& More Hopeful) Human with Emily Ehlers

    How to Be a Better (& More Hopeful) Human with Emily Ehlers
    May 10 2021
    Sure, there might be a whole lot of stuff wrong with our world at the moment (climate change, inequality, poverty, waste, systemic racism - oh my!) BUT this week's guest, Emily Ehlers, wants us to remember 'Hope is a Verb' (which is also the title of her wonderfully illustrated new book) - which means that we CAN do something about it. We discuss radical optimism, living in alignment with your values (always), how to realise your true agency and how someone fairly far down the socially responsible food chain (like me) can do more and make our community, suburb and world a better place. I hope you enjoy our chat & if you do it would be ace if you'd sprinkle some 5-star love my way.

  • Exploring New Age Practices & The World of Woo Woo with Amal Awad

    Exploring New Age Practices & The World of Woo Woo with Amal Awad
    Apr 11 2021
    What would you do in the name of spiritual enlightenment? See a psychic? Channel your inner spirit guide? Try dance therapy? This week I chat with Amal Awad, journalist, author and sceptical believer about the wonderful world of Woo Woo. We discuss the attraction of New Age practices, how not to get suckered in by everything you hear, how 'stuff' is never going to fix our internal suffering and how instead of manifesting we should instead try 'tuning in to what is manifest' for us. Whether you think this kind of stuff is nonsense or you love every crystal healing, oracle card toting, miracle promising minute of it, this ep is for you. I hope you enjoy it. PS - If you do, it would put an extra spring in my step if you could write me a review! Thanks :)

    Wouldn't it be marvellous to feel more connected to ourselves and others? In this week's episode, I chat with author and curious explorer of life, Maggie Hamilton about the sneaky ways loneliness has been seeping into the fabric of our lives and what we can do to stop it.

Maggie's research and insight ensures that this ep is full of useful reminders and takeaways that our lives can be much more joyful and adventurous.
