    HARRI JAMES: From Survival Mode to Changing the Law

    In this episode, we discuss child sexual abuse, mental health issues, and sexual assault. If any of the topics discussed is triggering for you, please seek help by visiting Lifeline's website at https://www.lifeline.org.au/ or by calling 13 11 14. Since we last had Harrison James on the podcast, he's achieved sweeping legislative change with his #YourReferenceAintRelevant campaign. But it wasn't smooth sailing for Harri to go from living in survival mode to advocate and change-maker. In his new book Transform Your Pain Into Purpose, he gives you the guide he wish he had for handling trauma. He and Abbie discuss burnout, the double-edged sword of social media in advocacy, his 'second chance' at fatherhood, and why you don't need to do anything public with your trauma.

    EMMA HARDY: PMDD and the Myths of Monstrous Women

    Emma Hardy lives with PMDD, and spent years of her life trying to work out what actions and feelings were 'her', and what was her PMDD. Her new memoir, Periodic Bitch, intertwines her exploration of her own psyche with cultural depictions and (mis)understandings of monsters, menstruation, and monstrous women. Emma and Abbie discuss the frustrating cycles of medical misogyny, identity and illness, female rage and so much more. A must-listen for people with PMDD, and those that love and support them. CONTENT WARNING: This episode contains discussions of mental ill-health and suicidal ideation. If you or someone you know is in immediate danger, call 000.
