    SUMMER LISTENING: How Sally Hepworth Survived Her Divorce

    This summer we're curating your 456 playlist listening to bring you some of our favourite interviews from MID and No Filter.  Sally Hepworth is one of Australia’s most successful and best-loved authors. Her novels are regularly top bestseller lists around the world. She’s known for writing darkly funny, page-turning stories about marriage, motherhood, secrets and betrayal. But in this episode of No Filter, Sally shares her own story — and it’s as layered and compelling as one of her books. Sitting down with Kate Langbroek, Sally talks candidly about ending her 20-year marriage, co-parenting with her ex, and why she no longer believes marriage is a good deal for women. She also explains why she’ll never live with a man again, how her family reacted to her decision, and why, despite the heartbreak, this next chapter might just be her happiest yet. You can buy Mad Mabel by Sally Hepworth here and The Family Next Door has all episodes available to stream on ABC iview.

    SUMMER LISTENING: Georgia Love On Private Pain In A Public Life

    This summer we're curating your 456 playlist listening to bring you some of our favourite interviews from MID and No Filter.  Georgia Love — and yes, that is her real name — has always had a lot of love to give. Almost a decade ago, she stepped onto our screens as The Bachelorette, searching for just that: love. She found it, too, forming a relationship in the public eye that captured hearts around the country. But now, almost ten years on, that same relationship is ending — also in full view of the public. Georgia is no stranger to loss — both the kind she has chosen to share with the world, and the kind she's fought fiercely to keep private.In this conversation, you'll hear: Georgia discuss losing her mum just days after her Bachelorette finale aired The very public cancellation she endured that still stings... Stepping away from her career, a heartbreaking friendship breakup, and the ways in which she's been changed by public scrutiny. And, of course, her very recent separation from her husband, and how she's picking up the pieces. Georgia has weathered more storms than most. Each time, she's picked herself up, rebuilt her life, and somehow stayed open-hearted. Resilient, vulnerable, and tougher than she often gets credit for, Georgia Love is a woman who has lived many lives in one. You can follow Georgia Love here.

    SUMMER LISTENING: Celeste Barber Got Famous For Being Real. Then It Got Complicated

    This summer we're curating your 456 playlist listening to bring you some of our favourite interviews from MID and No Filter.  Celeste Barber built a global following by being “real” - pulling faces in big knickers, parodying celebrity perfection, and making millions of people laugh on Instagram. But this is the side of Celeste that Instagram doesn’t see. In this intimate and revealing conversation, Celeste opens up about the chaos of her childhood, her ADHD diagnosis, the burnout that nearly broke her, and the pressure of being the internet’s favourite funny woman. She talks about her marriage to ‘Hot Husband’ Api and what it’s like raising kids while the world watches. She shares what fame has given her, what it’s taken, and the quiet work she’s done to figure out what parts of her life are just for her. Yes, she’s hilarious. But she’s also honest, vulnerable, and still figuring it out one little win at a time, just like the rest of us. This is the real Celeste Barber -  beyond the selfies, the knickers, and the punchlines.

    SUMMER LISTENING: Mid Without Motherhood

    This summer we're curating your 456 playlist listening to bring you some of our favourite interviews from MID and No Filter.  Faith Agugu always imagined she would be a mother. But at 45, after many, many detours, she decided it was time to recognise the reality that wasn't going to happen, and almost immediately everything changed for her. Faith wants us to make peace with the lives we're living and the ones we didn't quite get to live. In fact, she wants us live in a pro-ageing world. She knows it exists, because it's where she was born, into a culture where everyone wanted to be the oldest person in the room. They were the respected ones, the wise ones, the ones with status. Faith lived in Nigeria until she was 9, then in Britain and now in Australia. She says that through her work as a psychotherapist, and founder of advocacy group Silver Sirens, ageing-anxiety is ruining our mental health. And it's fair to say, she has some ideas about how to deal with that. This conversation is a big exhale. Like taking off your bra, it's about making peace with the changes age brings, and the surprises, and the shit bits too.  Enjoy this episode of MID with the excellent Faith Agugu. You can learn more about Faith's community, Silver Sirens, here You can follow Silver Sirens on Instagram. Find more MID here. THE END BITS:  Share your feedback!

    SUMMER LISTENING: Rachel Griffiths Took A Sabbatical From Everything

    This summer we're curating your 456 playlist listening to bring you some of our favourite interviews from MID and No Filter.  Rachel Griffiths says she just got through her "peak mid-hell years" and she's here to tell us how. The actor, producer, and director has had many eras - from the "fast start" of Muriel's Wedding to being a Hollywood awards darling, a big-deal US TV star, the director of the Australian classic movie Ride Like A Girl, the co-creator of Total Control and now, the star of the TV show Madam. Through all that, she was also wrestling with the relatable MID dramas - parenting teens and young adults, a diagnosis that made sense of so much, caring for ageing relatives and trying to keep a long-term marriage going. No wonder, as she tells host Holly Wainwright, she and her husband needed a sabbatical. This conversation also veers off into ageing, the Hollywood stars Rachel used to envy but no longer does, how to stay optimistic in a tumultuous world and the relief of finding out she's "ADHD AF".

    This summer we're curating your 456 playlist listening to bring you some of our favourite interviews from MID and No Filter.  Eleanor Mills had a very fabulous job, one that she had built her life and identity around for decades. But her "midlife collision" was calling when the boss called her up to their office for a "chat". Years on, Eleanor is living a very different life, and one that has its start, as some good stories do, in a midlife mushroom trip. In this conversation, Eleanor talks about the question women are too afraid to ask themselves, empty nests, cold swimming, why her "Noon" women are the world's greatest untapped resource, and how she cured her "addiction to busyness" to rebuild after her midlife collision.

    SUMMER LISTENING: From Husbands to Friends, Poh Ling Yeow Has Mastered Breakups

    This summer we're curating your 456 playlist listening to bring you some of our favourite interviews from MID and No Filter.  You might know Poh Ling Yeow as an artist, a chef and a regular fixture on television ever since she was first introduced to Australia on MasterChef. But that’s just the public side of Poh. The version you see is only part of her truth; behind it lies a layered, often painful journey.  In this conversation Poh opens up about her years spent in the church before walking away from it, which left her untangling years of belief and identity.  She shares the profound grief she has experienced with the loss of her mother, and as well as the heartbreak of two marriage breakdowns and how those moments led to loneliness, questioning and rebuilding.  But through it all, she’s discovered something quite extraordinary: an ability to find beauty in the sorrow, light in the mess, and humour in the most unexpected places. This is a conversation about identity, resilience, creativity, and what it means to truly move on and start over.  You can watch Poh on this season of MasterChef on Network 10 and you can follow her here: https://www.instagram.com/pohlingyeow/?hl=en  Find more MID here.

In this deeply personal and powerful conversation, Madeleine opens up about: How she came to terms with becoming a mother again at 47 The media storm that forced her to announce her pregnancy before she was ready The darkness she had to push through to become the woman she is today The moment she wore a wire to confront her abuser This is a story of survival, strength, and reclaiming your own narrative - no matter how impossible it may seem.

    The Moment Madeleine West Realised Her Relationship Was Over

    From the outside, Madeleine West had it all. A successful acting career, six beautiful kids, life in Melbourne, and a marriage of 15 years. Until a conversation about placemats made her question, 'Is this really what I want?'. It was at this moment that, Madeleine West chose to press 'Restart' on her life. It was hard- really hard in fact. So has it all been worth it? In the first episode of Restart, Madeleine explores something almost half of all Australian adults will go through at some point in their lives: divorce. Madeleine speaks to Divorce Coach & Legal and Separation Strategist (and divorcee) Nikki Parkinson, about the reality of separation. PLUS has a truly heartbreaking and hilarious chat with comedian and podcast host Helen Thorne, whose marriage became immediately unraveled after she found a love note in her husband's jacket pocket...that wasn't from her. No stone will be left unturned as Madeleine West explores what it is really like to restart your life. THE END BITS Buy Get Divorced, Be Happy by Helen Thorn and listen to her podcast Scummy Mummies.

    Holly Wainwright Walked Out Of Her Old Life

    Two years ago, Madeleine West hit restart on her life. She packed up her life in Melbourne and moved to Byron Bay, split up with her partner of 15 years and the father of her six kids and she started life again. And one of her biggest moments in her restart? It was her physical move from the leafy suburbs of Melbourne to Byron.  She had no choice but to start again. And that’s what a tree change or a sea change does to you, it forces you to Restart. In June last year, Holly Wainwright packed up her life in Sydney, along with her partner, kids and dog, and moved to the country. And since that moment her world has changed in incredible ways. And on this episode of Restart she tells Madeleine all about it. THE END BITS Find Holly on Mamamia Out Loud or This Glorous Mess GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!
