    Grief, Death Doulas, and Keeping Them in the Next Room (Subscriber Exclusive)

    JOIN THE UNSPOKEN: https://patreon.com/SoberlySpeaking Patricia came on to talk about domestic violence. What unfolded was something else entirely. Two months and one day after her sister Constance was killed in a car accident in South Australia, Patricia's son Corey died by suicide. He was not yet 25. She watched colleagues turn around and walk the other way when they saw her coming. Grief has a hierarchy whether we like it or not. Patricia knows that better than most. She is now a death doula, a counsellor, and the author of a book for every woman who has ever been made to feel too broken to leave.

  3. Sugar Babying, Motherhood & Starting Again: Mikaela's Story

    HACE 4 D

    Sugar Babying, Motherhood & Starting Again: Mikaela's Story

    From a young age, Mikaela felt the pressure to please those around her, men especially. At seventeen, she met the father of her firstborn in the chaos of partying and substance use. What began as young love slowly turned into a life she felt trapped in. With a mortgage, a baby on the way and no income of her own, leaving no longer felt like an option. When she finally did leave, Mikaela was on her own with a three-month-old and little to no resources. Starting again from scratch, she navigated the highs and many lows of online dating before being introduced to the world of sugar babying. In this episode, she shares what it means to balance single motherhood, sobriety and the emotional weight of living with personality disorders. Trigger warning: This episode explores sensitive topics including substance use, mental health and personality disorders.

  4. Lucy's Story Part Two: How the System Failed Her and She Saved Herself (Subscriber Exclusive)

    Lucy's Story Part Two: How the System Failed Her and She Saved Herself (Subscriber Exclusive)

    JOIN THE UNSPOKEN: https://patreon.com/SoberlySpeaking When we left Lucy’s story, she had a broken cheekbone, a fractured eye socket, and two black eyes that took months to fade. She was still protecting the man who put them there. This episode is part 2 and it picks up in the aftermath. Lucy moved through a world that had very little to offer someone in her situation. She found a kind of safety in criminal circles. She started working in the sex industry at 16. She eventually found herself spending $500 a day on heroin, and earning it back by nightfall. What stays with me is how clearly she sees all of it now. No bitterness, no performance. She talks about the industry with more care and nuance than most people ever would. She talks about addiction the same way. She’s been sober since the 31st of July, 2019. This is what it took to get there. Trigger warning: this episode contains discussion of child abuse and neglect, sexual abuse, and domestic violence. Ready to share your story?

  5. "I'm Buying Friends" - Alex Wired Corporate Funds to Feed His Gambling Addiction

    29 MAR

    "I'm Buying Friends" - Alex Wired Corporate Funds to Feed His Gambling Addiction

    Growing up as a second-generation Chinese Australian in Canberra, Alex spent much of his childhood wanting to be anything but himself. At just eight years old, he made a quiet but powerful connection: success, titles and money equals love. That belief followed him into adulthood and when COVID hit, the pressure, boredom and loss of identity converged into a gambling addiction that quietly took over his life. He was placing sports bets in the middle of the night, lying to his partner about missed bills and rent, borrowing money from friends and slowly losing the relationships that mattered most to him. Then came the moment everything unravelled. He had been stealing funds from his employer and one ordinary day, he was called into an office and told he was under internal investigation. As frightening as that moment was for Alex, it was also the first day of the rest of his life.  Gambling Help Online  gamblinghelponline.org.au Online counselling available 24/7, including live chat and email support Creator & Host: ⁠⁠@JuliaRangiheuea Ready to share your story?

    Lucy's Story Part One: How the System Failed Her and She Saved Herself (Subscriber Exclusive)

    JOIN THE UNSPOKEN: https://patreon.com/SoberlySpeaking Lucy was taken from her mother at seven years old. Not removed. Ripped. She uses that word, and it’s the right one. She was pulled from her mother’s arms in a courthouse while her entire family stood and watched, and not one of them went to comfort either of them. What followed was years of placements that never stuck. Grandparents, her father, an aunt and uncle, strangers. She was a gifted kid, smart enough to be placed in advanced academic programs. None of that protected her from what was coming. By 14, Lucy was in residential care and being groomed by a man she now calls what he is... a paedophile. He wasn’t a boyfriend. There was nothing mutual about it. What he did set a template for the relationships that followed. The next one left her with a broken cheekbone, a fractured eye socket, and his foot imprints on her body. She was still a teenager. This is Part 1 of Lucy’s story. It covers the system that was supposed to protect her, and everything it didn’t do. Trigger warning: this episode contains discussion of child abuse and neglect, sexual abuse, and domestic violence.

  7. A Young Life of Crime: Raj

    A Young Life of Crime: Raj

    Trigger warning: this episode contains discussion of sexual assault.Raj's earliest memory is of his father leaving him on the side of the road to teach him a lesson. It was the first of many moments that taught him emotions weren't safe to show. By his teens, he was selling and using. What began at parties didn't stay there and one line led to another until he was moving large amounts of drugs and dealing weapons. Two stints in jail later, the reality of that life had nothing left to romanticise. Now in his twenties, Raj is starting over. In this episode, he talks about how he got in, what it cost him and why he's adamant about one thing: there's nothing gangster about it.

    What Childhood Sexual Abuse Does to Your Brain and Body (Subscriber Exclusive)

    JOIN THE UNSPOKEN: https://patreon.com/SoberlySpeaking What happens to a child's brain during sexual abuse doesn't stay there. It shows up in their relationships, their bodies, and their sense of self, often without them ever knowing why. Melissa Beaton is a psychotherapist specialising in trauma. In this episode, she breaks down the neuroscience behind trauma responses, why arousal during abuse is biological and not a choice, and why freeze and fawn are survival mechanisms, not failures. She unpacks how childhood sexual abuse shows up later in life through hypersexuality, hyposexuality, chronic illness, self-sabotage, and broken intimacy, and what real healing actually looks like. Julia and Melissa also get into the difference between childhood and adult sexual abuse, what a regulated nervous system looks like in practice, and why healing has to happen in relationship, not isolation. Trigger warning: This episode includes discussion of childhood sexual abuse, trauma, PTSD, and its psychological and physiological effects. Listener discretion is advised. Ready to share your story?
