    The October Issue: Teresa Palmer, Male Advocates & The Longevity Boom

    What does it really mean to be a woman today? Is progress making life easier, or are we just facing a new set of challenges? This episode discusses domestic violence and other strong themes. Please know support is available, contact Lifeline on 13 11 14 for 24/7 crisis support, 1800RESPECT on 1800 737 732 for domestic, family and sexual violence support. In this special October Issue episode of You're Gonna Want To Hear This, Marie Claire Editor Georgie McCourt and Deputy Editor Mel Gaudron dive into the stories shaping this month's issue, from the realities of growing up as a girl in the age of social media to the men working to end violence against women. They unpack the pressures facing girls today, including online safety, body image, digital culture and the growing influence of misogynistic online communities. They also discuss the mental load women carry at home, asking what would happen if mums simply stopped doing everything, and whether "doing less" might actually be the key to a happier family. The episode also explores the booming longevity industry and why ageing has become the latest frontier for wellness marketing. Georgie and Mel question whether biohacking, supplements and expensive treatments are really helping us live longer, or simply giving us another impossible standard to chase. Plus, they discuss one of the most astonishing true stories featured in the issue: an adopted woman who reunites with her biological father, only for the relationship to take an unexpected turn. And they celebrate cover star Teresa Palmer, who opens up about motherhood, ambition, self-belief and landing the biggest role of her career at 40.

    How to Take Control of Your Money: Canna Campbell on Financial Freedom & Money Mindset

    Money can be a source of stress, confusion and avoidance, but what if being good with money wasn’t just about building wealth but an act of self-care?  This week, Marie Claire Australia Editor Georgie McCourt is joined by financial adviser, author and SugarMamma founder Canna Campbell to talk about money mindset, financial freedom and how taking control of your finances can be a powerful way of taking care of yourself.  Canna shares practical advice on setting specific financial goals, creating a simple budget, spending intentionally, and building additional income streams. They also discuss superannuation, investing, income protection, the gender retirement gap and FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early).  Plus, how childhood beliefs can shape our relationship with money, why social media can distort our perception of wealth, how couples can have better conversations about finances, why decluttering can reveal more about our spending habits, and the one financial task Canna says you should stop putting off.   If you've ever felt overwhelmed, ashamed or simply unsure about your finances, this is a reminder that getting better with money doesn't have to mean doing everything at once. Sometimes, looking after your money is simply another way of looking after yourself.  This episode covers:  Canna Campbell on what financial freedom really means  Changing your mindset around money  Letting go of shame and inherited beliefs about finances  Setting specific, meaningful financial goals  Why you don’t need to fix your entire financial life at once  Taking small, achievable steps towards financial freedom  Creating a simple budget that actually works for you  Building a financial “float” for unexpected and annual expenses  Spending intentionally and prioritising what you value  How social media can distort our perception of wealth  Canna’s “Thousand Dollar Project” and the power of compounding  Understanding and taking control of your superannuation  Income protection and protecting your ability to earn  FIRE: Financial Independence, Retire Early  Money and relationships, and how couples can talk about finances  Why having your own financial assets matters  Decluttering and what your spending habits can reveal about you  What to do when you’ve been avoiding your finances  Why the best time to start is now  Find out more about Canna's book Twelve Months to Financial Freedom and https://www.sugarmamma.tv/ Stay up to date with Marie Claire Australia on Instagram @marieclaireau  🎧 Listen to You're Gonna Want to Hear This and follow us on Apple Podcasts or Spotify    👀 Watch and subscribe to You're Gonna Want to Hear This on YouTube 📺 for full episodes and clips. https://www.youtube.com/marieclaire  Credits:     Host Georgie McCourt     Edited by Helen Smith   Head of Vodcasting Rachel Fountain   With thanks to our amazing team at Marie Claire    You're Gonna Want to Hear This is a production of Marie Claire and Are Media https://www.marieclaire.com.au/life/youre-gonna-want-to-hear-this-podcast/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Tracy Hall Fell in Love With a Con Man. Then He Stole $317,000

    What happens when the person you loved, the person you trusted with your future, wasn’t who they said they were?  Marie Claire Australia Editor Georgie McCourt sits down with author, advocate and marketing executive Tracy Hall, whose extraordinary story became known through the hit investigative podcast Who the Hell Is Hamish? Tracy was Hamish McLaren’s final known victim, after an 18-month relationship, she discovered that the man she knew as Max Tavita was in fact one of Australia’s most notorious con men. He had stolen $317,000 of her life savings.  Now, years after her story first captivated listeners, Tracy joins Georgie to tell the story in her own words. From falling in love with a man who appeared to share her values and ambitions, to discovering that almost everything she knew about him was a lie.  Tracy takes us inside the sophisticated manipulation that kept her from seeing what was happening, including the slow-building relationship, the carefully manufactured similarities, future promises and conversations about money that ultimately led to her investing her savings. She explains why romance scams aren’t about intelligence or naivety, why anyone can be vulnerable to manipulation, and why the shame should belong with the perpetrator, not the victim.  She also talks about The Last Victim, her memoir about the experience, and the work she is now doing to advocate for safer online dating, financial empowerment and a different way of talking about victims of scams. She explains why she believes dating apps need stronger identity verification, what happened when she discovered Hamish had appeared on a dating app again, and why she wants better safeguards in place before her own daughter enters the world of online dating.  And in one of the most timely parts of the conversation, Tracy explores the next generation of deception, AI scams, deepfakes and voice cloning and why “trust literacy” may become as important as financial and digital literacy.  This episode covers:  Tracy Hall’s role as Hamish McLaren’s last known victim  Her story as featured in Who the Hell Is Hamish?  Meeting Hamish, who she knew as Max Tavita, on a dating app  How an 18-month relationship was carefully constructed  The manipulation tactics and warning signs she missed  How $317,000 of her savings was stolen  Why intelligent, successful people can become victims of romance scams  The psychological impact of intimate fraud and betrayal  Rebuilding her confidence, identity and ability to trust  Becoming financially empowered after the scam  Writing The Last Victim  Victim blaming and the language we use around scams  Why dating apps need stronger safety measures  Hamish McLaren appearing on a dating app after his release  Dating again and learning to trust herself  “Trust literacy” and navigating deception in the digital age. AI scams, deepfakes and voice cloning  Why shame belongs with the perpetrator, not the victim  Stay up to date with Marie Claire Australia on Instagram @marieclaireau 🎧 Listen to You're Gonna Want to Hear This and follow us on Apple Podcasts or Spotify   👀 Watch and subscribe to You're Gonna Want to Hear This on YouTube 📺 for full episodes and clips. https://www.youtube.com/marieclaire Credits:    Host Georgie McCourt    Edited by Helen Smith  Head of Vodcasting Rachel Fountain  With thanks to our amazing team at Marie Claire   You're Gonna Want to Hear This is a production of Marie Claire and Are Media.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Why Women Need to Stop Being “Nice” with Amy Remeikis

    What if being “nice” isn’t the same as being kind? And what happens when women stop making themselves smaller to keep everyone else comfortable?  This week, Marie Claire Australia Editor Georgie McCourt is joined by political journalist, author and cultural commentator Amy Remeikis to unpack women, power, anger, civility and the pressure to be “good”.  The author of Screw Nice, Amy explores why women are often judged for being direct, angry or emotional, while the same behaviour can be interpreted very differently in men. She discusses the double standards behind labels like “difficult”, the expectation that women make themselves smaller, and why refusing to be compliant can be an act of power.  Amy also shares her own experiences of learning to speak up, including a childhood moment that made her question why the way a woman responds to injustice can become more important than the injustice itself. She explains how she approaches uncomfortable conversations with people whose political views differ from her own, and why asking “why?” can be more productive than immediately shutting down a difficult conversation.  Plus, Amy shares her advice for dealing with being called “emotional”, “hysterical” or “difficult”, why women should stop apologising unless they have actually done something wrong, and how walking away from an argument can sometimes be the most empowering response.  This episode covers:  The politics of being “nice”  Why women are labelled “difficult”  Anger, protest and speaking up  Grace Tame and the policing of women’s behaviour  Double standards for women in leadership  Political disagreement and finding common ground  Gaslighting and emotional dismissal  Why women need to stop apologising for everything  Taking up space and using your power  The difference between being nice and being decent  You can find Amy's book Screw Nice here https://www.hachette.com.au/amy-remeikis/screw-nice Stay up to date with Marie Claire Australia on Instagram @marieclaireau 🎧 Listen to You're Gonna Want to Hear This and follow us on Apple Podcasts or Spotify   👀 Watch and subscribe to You're Gonna Want to Hear This on YouTube 📺 for full episodes and clips. https://www.youtube.com/marieclaire Credits:    Host Georgie McCourt    Edited by Helen Smith  Head of Vodcasting Rachel Fountain  With thanks to our amazing team at Marie Claire   You're Gonna Want to Hear This is a production of Marie Claire and Are Media.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Anine Bing on Life After Divorce, Finding Herself Again & Being Happier in Her 40s

    Anine Bing has spent more than a decade building the kind of fashion empire most entrepreneurs dream of, launching ANINE BING from a Los Angeles garage and turning her signature blend of Scandinavian simplicity and LA cool into a global brand. But now, the designer, entrepreneur and creative is asking a different question: what success actually look like when it feels like it’s time to start again?  This week, Marie Claire Australia Editor Georgie McCourt is joined by Anine for a deeply personal conversation about awakening, ambition, burnout, divorce, motherhood, creativity and the journey of finding her way back to herself.  At 43, Anine found herself questioning whether she was truly living her truth or feeling fulfilled. After years of building her global fashion brand while raising her children, she realised she had been so busy “building, building, building” that she hadn’t had time to sit with herself and understand how she really felt. What followed was a period of deep inner work, major personal change and, ultimately, a new sense of freedom.  Anine also talks candidly about divorce, starting again in her 40s and the unexpected happiness she found on the other side. From creating a new home on her own terms to discovering that she is genuinely happy being alone, Anine reflects on what freedom means to her now and why she feels she has finally come back to herself.  The conversation also explores the evolution of ANINE BING, from packing orders on the garage floor while pregnant to building a global fashion business, and the importance of staying in your own lane rather than getting distracted by what everyone else is doing. She shares her philosophy on personal style, buying less but better, and why the right clothes can change how you feel about yourself.  Plus, Anine opens up about music as a form of healing, her album Chapter Two, motherhood, raising teenagers, finding her voice and why she now feels an obligation to share her experiences if they might help another woman.  This episode covers:  Anine Bing on her awakening in her 40s   Finding your way back to yourself   The hidden reality of burnout and ambition  Balancing motherhood and building a global business   Learning to prioritise yourself   Divorce and finding happiness on the other side   Starting a new chapter on your own terms   The freedom of being alone   Staying in your own lane   Building a successful fashion brand   Buying less and better and finding your personal uniform   Fashion, confidence and how clothes make us feel  Music as therapy and healing and Anine’s new album, Chapter Two   Motherhood and raising teenagers   Being comfortable in your own skin   The power of starting over   Why you shouldn’t give up  Stay up to date with Marie Claire Australia on Instagram   🎧 Listen to You're Gonna Want to Hear This and follow us on Apple Podcasts or Spotify   👀 Watch and subscribe to You're Gonna Want to Hear This on YouTube 📺 for full episodes and clips.   Credits:    Host Georgie McCourt    Edited by Helen Smith  Head of Vodcasting Rachel Fountain  With thanks to our amazing team at Marie Claire   You're Gonna Want to Hear This is a production of Marie Claire and Are Media.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    What does it really mean to find your personal style? Our bodies change. Our lives change. So why do we expect our wardrobes to stay the same?

The episode also looks beyond fashion, exploring the booming bumpfluencer economy and the way pregnancy and motherhood have become increasingly commercialised online.

Plus, they discuss Marie Claire's investigation into voluntary assisted dying in Australia, Leighton Meester on success, self-worth and beauty, and why style ultimately comes down to feeling confident enough to be yourself.
