    The SHE Word Mums - Mums Without a 'Village’

    What does "having a village" really mean in motherhood? What happens when that village looks different than expected? In this episode of The She Word Mums, we explore the many faces of support, community, and connection through the experiences of three mothers whose journeys have taken very different paths. Tara Alvarez Garcia shares her experience of navigating motherhood after losing her own mum, and the practical ways she navigates balancing her business and raising a family. Sarah Naudi opens up about raising her daughter abroad, far from family and familiar support systems. Sarah speaks openly about how her village is made up of more than other mothers, and the importance of staying true to herself and her dreams. Leah Camenzuli reflects on choosing to raise her children largely independently, without relying on outside help. She opens up about how her perspective changed after she suffered a loss, and the highs and sometimes conflicting lows of her choices. Together, we have an honest conversation about the realities of modern motherhood: the mental load of carrying it all, the role of partners and husbands in parenting, the pressure to do everything, and the judgement mothers often face for the choices they make. We discuss what support really looks like, why community matters, and how acceptance of ourselves and each other, can help us move beyond comparison and guilt. Whether you're surrounded by a village, building one, grieving one, or choosing a different path altogether, this episode is a reminder that there is no single right way.

    TSW - Young Women's Edition - Young & Single

    The Young Women’s edition is back - with a twist! Each show is hosted by a special guest host who leads a discussion on a topic close to their heart. First up, welcome to The SHE Word regular Chelsea Bagnall-Falzon to host the table with three other super stars to discuss all the ins and outs of being single. Newly-single-Chelsea sits down with fellow Love Islander Italian Alessia Sarao, actress Naomi Said and the familiar face of Martha Attard. What follows is a brilliantly honest, fun and open conversation about all things young, free, single (and dating) that young women experience. This show is like sitting down for an Aperol Spritz with four great friends to chat about things that matter and ‘put the world to rights’. The conversation flows through the topic of a single status, dating, dating apps and everything to do with relationships; cheating, toxic relationships, same sex relationships and the difference, ghosting and being ghosted, to finding ‘the one’. The ladies spill the beans and dish the dirt, no holds barred. The show also takes a deeper dive into the expectations of family and friends, third wheeling with your best friend, beating the shame, permissions and freedom and navigating the prospect of not having a family. Relaxed, informal and a whole load of fun, this show is a MUST for every young woman. ‘Be seen’ in every situation you have experienced. Tune in and hang out with the friends you didn’t know you had.

    The SHE Word AFTERHOURS - Unfiltered with Special Guest James Ryder

    We often get asked ‘why do you have men on The SHE Word? It is a Women’s Show’. True. The SHE Word is all about conversations Women rarely have, but once in a while it is good to get a male perspective. Most of us want to understand the less fairer sex bit better. After all, we want men as allies don’t we? So every so often we ask guy to come and join the Afterhours Edition of the show and sit with Host Trudy and her regulars for this edition Sue Caruana and Tez Camilleri, and for this episode Comedian James Ryder sits at the table. And as you would expect, there are some very funny conversations, but there are also some very serious discussions too. Based on James’s flirt with the MEP elections, the tables talks through the topic of politics; what would you do if you’re in charge of the country. The discussion moves on to the issue of the AC, Tattoos, Fashion. Trudy puts the question ‘What do you think that the opposite sex need to know?’ With some very interesting and enlightening results. The guests also work their way around what we miss and what we think that 2026 could do without. Along the way the team pick up on topics such as tech and AI, bright white ceiling lights and the importance of being bored. This edition of The SHE Word is less censored and more light hearted, but don’t be fooled into thinking there isn’t some very meaningful moments too. This is a show for everyone. Sit down, kick back and enjoy. Huge thanks to Brown's, Perrier, Always. Tampax, Satariano, Holland and Barrett, Camilleri Paris Mode, Verdala Wellness Hotel and Spa, Mapfre, BOV and Lindex for supporting these conversations.

    The SHE Word - Everything a Woman Needs to Know About Her Body and Mind

    “Women are not small men”. That sounds like an obvious statement, but it is really isn’t. 

 Women are characterised by a 28 day (average) cycle, a complex reproductive system, a mind that is active all waking hours (unlike our male counterparts), a mindset that has a natural focus on caring, and an ever changing role in society. Add to this societal pressures to aim for perfection, expectations to hold down a career, be a mum, financially strong and independent, to be fit, slim, successful and defy the natural progress of age, and it is easy to understand why women are living in the most stressful generations of all time. Stress, Anxiety, Expectations and just Being A Women all takes a toll on the body, mind and emotions. In this show Trudy sits down with Psychologist Roberta Farrugia Debono, Gynaecologist Chiara Frendo Balzan and certified lifestyle coach & licensed pharmacist Marie Micallef to find out what we really need to know about ourselves as women that we may be unaware of, or have taken for granted. From Mental Load to Menstrual Cycles, Body Trauma to Beauty Standards and Fertility to Female Well Being, and everything else, the ladies at the table tackled the topic with insight, humour, relatable stories and a 360 approach to being a woman. This show drops a bag of golden nuggets to help you make your life easier, more comfortable, more understood - at the very least, you will feel more seen and have greater understanding of what is happening to you, your body and your mind. Huge thanks to Brown's, Perrier, Always. Tampax, Satariano, Holland and Barrett, Camilleri Paris Mode, Verdala Wellness Hotel and Spa, Mapfre, BOV and Lindex for supporting these conversations.

    The SHE Word Mums - When Things Don't Go According To Plan

    This is the episode you want to watch with a packet of tissues as the emotions are high. In this episode of TSWM, Nerissa sits down with 3 women to discuss when motherhood doesn’t go to plan. When you plan to start a family or when you imagine your children, you never quite imagine a disability or a diagnosis hanging over their head. No one dreams of holding their baby only to be told that there is something wrong. As a mum, you only want the best for your child and knowing they will be facing a world which is not quite built for them brings challenges, heart break and grief. The three mums in this show are Yazmin Helledie, Michelle de Maria and Sharon Attard de Giovanni. These ladies have a raw and emotional conversation about their inner feelings and how they navigated the disability and diagnosis, how they accepted the curve ball life threw their way in order to be able to adapt to their new reality. They talk of shock, heartbreak but also so much joy in everyday life raising these incredible warriors and advocating for a more inclusive society and a kinder world for them - because after all, they too deserve to take up space and have their voices heard.

    The Voices of Women in Power - Vanessa Frazier, brought to you by The SHE Word

    Vanessa Frazier is the United Nations Secretary-General's Special Representative for Children and Armed Conflict. Vanessa has a long and illustrious career in the diplomatic core, is decorated and honoured by various governments and states for the work she has done. But Vanessa has hit the headlines and gone viral around the world when she has spoken out and been attacked by high ranking officials, most recently her high profile ‘run in’ with the Israeli Ambassador to the UN. In this powerful and passionate interview, Trudy talks to Vanessa about the incidents of apparent misogyny that she has encountered over the course of her career, the death threats, the abuse, the sexual slurs, and personal attacks. Vanessa explains the role that she hols within the UN and emphasises the importance of those who are passionate for peace and justice. She also shares her views on world leaders such as Trump whose actions and intentions have serious implications for world peace. Vanessa shares her thoughts on the nations who are committing serious humanitarian violations and the complex and often confusing processing to take action against them. In this moving and inspiring conversation, Trudy asks Vanessa to share her passion for the work she leads to protect the most vulnerable children around the world. Vanessa shares first hand accounts of what she has witnessed, and her thoughts on the hope that children hold on to, even in the most harrowing places, such as Gaza and Haiti. Vanessa also shares her very personal account of how she is impacted every day by what she does, and what she has seen. She reiterates WHY she will always stand up to the bullies, and why she will never underestimate the importances of the Voices of Women in Power. Watch, Listen, be inspired and empowered.

    The SHE Word - Building Back From Break Ups

    Break Ups are one of the most unspoken topics we have sat down to discuss. Unless you stay with the very first person you meet, everyone is impacted by break ups - they are an inevitable part of life - but more often than not, they aren’t pretty, they can be painful and brutal. We don’t talk about them - because it isn’t easy to chat about what can be ugly. Break Ups happen for a reason. At best two people decide that they are no longer heading in the same direction and amicably decide to part ways. More often break ups involve unmet expectations, money troubles, family and friends opinions and input, or even betrayal and abuse. The fall out from family and financial dynamics, and adjusting to a new life, can be far reaching - way beyond the obvious. Whatever the reason, Break Ups are an isolating grief. What you had hoped for is gone. The future you were building is no longer there. But. There is a life after a break up, and everyone on this show is evidence of that. In this episode Trudy sits down with Martine Cutajar, Claudia Faniello and Maria Azzopardi to discuss the variety of ways a break up can hit and how to move on. The lessons learned and the wisdom gained. Building back up after a break up might not be easy - there will be tears, soul searching, denial, anger, bargaining, depression, but finally hopefully healing, acceptance and moving forwards. This is a show for everyone, whether you are in a happy and settled relationship and are just curious, searching to heal the past, or just want to feel seen. Huge thanks to Brown's, Perrier, Always.

    The SHE Word Mums - The Conversation About Fertility

    Most girls grow up assuming or expecting that motherhood will be a natural step once they find the right person and decide that it’s the right time- after all that’s what we’ve always been taught. However, what happens when life is not as simple as portrayed from the eyes of a girl or a young teenager? This episode explores the theme of fertility and the journey to becoming a mum, the hardship, the heartache, and all the things in between that we aren’t prepared for and rarely spoken about. Nerissa Massa sits down with Dr.Christine Schembri Deguara, Angele Satariano and Christina Zammit La Rosa as they open up about their fertility journeys. The raw and emotional conversation takes us through the acceptance that fertility may not be as straightforward as we imagined. Either because of being in a same sex relationship or because falling pregnant just wasn’t happening, these women take us with them on their rollercoaster of IUI, IVF- the time commitment, the emotional, mental and financial impact it has had on them and their family and friends. Dr. Christine explains and sheds light on the problem women (and men) are facing with infertility these days, why this is and importantly what we can do to put us in the best place when we decide we are ready to go for it. She always helps with some myth busting which brings clarity especially to couples who are going through this process often feeling vulnerable and desperate. This show helps those who have had a less than smooth fertility journey feel seen and helps those supporting these couples understand a bit better what they are going through.
