Roll With The Punches Tiffanee Cook

In this cracking episode of the show, we are blessed with the brilliant mind of Professor Jayashri Kulkarni, a titan in the world of women's mental health. Jayashri breaks down the intricate dance between hormones and mental health like nobody else. She's not just the top dog at the Monash Alfred Psychiatry Research Centre, she's also been on the front lines, pioneering research that digs into how our hormonal roller coasters can throw a wrench in our mental well-being.

We chat about her groundbreaking work (the Prof has not only penned over 200 research papers, but also pushed the boundaries of psychoneuroendocrinology).

Get ready to unpack everything from the nitty-gritty of brain chemistry, it's relationship with the impacts of early life trauma, and how to 'best' navigate the management of the mental, emotional and perhaps biological turbulence that can strike at any time of women's lives (yeah, hello menopause). Jayashri shares her wisdom on why a one-size-fits-all approach just doesn’t cut it for women’s mental health, and why tailored treatments are the game-changer we need.

Strap in ladies, because this episode is packed with insights that'll change the way you think about mental health and hormones!

Good grief... how many of us have been holding out for that perfect moment to transform our lives? Be it our situation, circumstances, lifestyle, career, habits, health, or outcomes. Here we seem to be yearning for improvement & change, but all too often finding ourselves continually engaging in counterproductive behaviors that only set us back. We squander time, talent, energy, and opportunities, ultimately engaging in those all too familiar acts of self-sabotage and self-destruction.

What is it that puts an end to this cycle? Perhaps now is the time.

In this episode I had the opportunity to sit down once again with Rae Bonney, a passionate and proactive advocate for men's health. Our discussion dives into the critical need for inclusive health policies that specifically address men's mental health. Rae highlights the startling gap in global health policies - very few countries have frameworks that adequately address this issue. She shared insights from her work with organisations that collaborate closely with the World Health Organisation to push for necessary reforms. Rae's dedication to this cause is truly inspiring, and it reminded me of the powerful impact advocacy can have on public health initiatives.

Peter Shankman is an absolute legend, with a faster than normal brain. I recently got my hands (or rather, ears) on his audiobook and instantly fell in love with his insights. I listened attentively - 'squirrel' (thanks for that, Peter) - and even replayed it several times to soak up his strategies for managing these 'faster than normal' brains associated with ADHD.

This conversation isn't just for the neurodiverse; it's for anyone looking to optimise their potential in today's fast-paced world.

Why don't we just say 'thank you' when we should (when we receive compliments), and why do we say 'sorry' when we shouldn't? 

Today's chat with Kerryn Vaughan is a smorgasbord of reflective thinking out loud around how we do life, and how we might do it a little better. From being emotionally hijacked, to learning to establish a sense of belonging in our lives, Kerryn brings her lively zest for life to the show along with some deeply insightful ideas and lessons. 

Sorry, not sorry!

When I refer to the 'girls,' I'm not talking about your friends but rather the 'girls' on your chest!

Suzie Betts is making waves with Boob Armour, her pioneering product designed for women in contact sports. As someone from this field myself, it was a revelation to discover that breast protection had never crossed my path in the decade-plus I've spent both delivering and dodging punches.

In our conversation, we delve into the journey of turning an idea into a tangible product and the challenges of navigating the market to launch it successfully. Suzie has been through this process more than once, and I find it incredibly insightful, especially for women bringing ideas to market in the sports sector, which is often still viewed and dominated through a male perspective.
