    Financial Traps Women Fall Into (and how to avoid them)

    If you stopped working tomorrow, how long could you financially survive on your own? Not in theory. Not in a spreadsheet somewhere.In real life. Lately I’ve been seeing headlines about rising homelessness in Australian women over 55. At first, it feels distant. But when you dig deeper, this isn’t just about homelessness. It’s about superannuation gaps.It’s about part-time work and motherhood.It’s about divorce.It’s about rising cost of living, rent vesting and what really happens financially when life doesn’t go to plan. In this episode, I sit down with financial adviser Jayde Jenkins to unpack the financial blind spots women can’t afford to ignore and what we should be doing in our 20s, 30s and 40s to protect ourselves. We talk about: * Why homelessness in women over 55 is rising in Australia * The long-term financial impact of career breaks and part-time work * What divorce really means for superannuation and property * Rent vesting and whether it protects you long term * Reverse mortgages and accessing equity later in life * The financial red flags women consistently overlook * Why personal insurance matters more than most of us realise * How to build an emergency fund even if you’re starting from zero * The financial order of priorities if you’re earning well and want a clear roadmap This conversation isn’t about fear. It’s about awareness. Because the women most affected aren’t irresponsible. They’re capable, educated women who experienced illness, separation, age discrimination or simply underestimated the long-term impact of stepping out of the workforce. If you care about financial independence, protecting your future and making sure you always have options, this episode is for you.

  4. Baby Sleep, Breastfeeding and Co-Sleeping: What’s Actually Normal?

    MAR 10

    Baby Sleep, Breastfeeding and Co-Sleeping: What’s Actually Normal?

    Before Rose was born, I thought I had prepared well. I had already interviewed incredible experts about postpartum nutrition, hormonal crashes, mental health and recovery after birth. I felt informed and ready for what the fourth trimester might bring. But once Rose arrived, the two things that surprised me most were breastfeeding and newborn sleep. The reality of milk supply, feeding a newborn, contact naps and baby sleep (or lack of) looked very different to what I had imagined. In this episode I’m joined by Melissa Hays, a paediatric nurse, midwife, internationally certified lactation consultant and holistic baby sleep consultant who has built an online community of more than 90,000 parents seeking calm, evidence based guidance around breastfeeding, formula feeding and baby sleep. This is the conversation I wish I had listened to before giving birth to Rose. Melissa shares what she wishes every parent knew about breastfeeding, how stress and exhaustion can affect milk supply, what biologically normal baby sleep actually looks like in the first year, and why so many families quietly co sleep even though it’s rarely talked about openly. If you’re pregnant, newly postpartum, or navigating the first year with a baby, this episode will help you feel more informed, more confident and far less alone. In this episode we discuss: How to filter through conflicting advice from midwives, doctors, friends and the internet without losing confidence in yourself Three things Melissa wishes every woman knew about breastfeeding before giving birth Fascinating facts about breastmilk and how it changes based on your baby’s needs How to choose a formula if you decide to supplement or exclusively formula feed How stress, exhaustion and pressure can impact milk supply in the early weeks How babies sleep around the world and why different cultures approach baby sleep differently What biologically normal baby sleep actually looks like in the first year of life Why co sleeping is still taboo in Australia even though many families end up doing it What parents need to know to co sleep as safely as possible if it happens Why traditional sleep training advice like cry it out is now being questioned by more professionals Whether contact naps are actually a bad habit or a completely normal phase of development As always, take what resonates and leave the rest. There is no single perfect way to parent, only the way that works best for you and your baby.

    Family Estrangement and No Contact: Why Women Cut Ties With Family

    Family estrangement affects more people than we realise, whether you are considering stepping back from a family relationship, living with no contact, or trying to understand why someone has cut ties with you. In this episode of Reset, psychologist Alex Hall joins me to unpack what family estrangement really is, why it is becoming more common in adulthood, and the life seasons where it often shows up. We explore the emotional complexity on both sides, and how guilt, grief and relief can exist at the same time. We also talk about: • why people reach a breaking point with family • the pressure to be a “good” daughter, son or sibling • when it might be worth slowing down before going no contact • whether you owe an explanation, or not • navigating birthdays, weddings and holidays • if and when relationships can be repaired Thank you to the Reset listeners who shared their experiences and helped shape this conversation.

    You’re Not Lazy, You’re Overstimulated: How to Reset Your Brain in an Overwhelming World

    We’re told that January should feel motivating, energising and full of momentum. But what if it doesn’t? In this episode of Reset, Ash is joined by bestselling author, health journalist and yoga teacher Jodi Wilson, to unpack why so many of us feel exhausted, overwhelmed and mentally foggy, even at the very start of the year. Jodi is the author of A Brain That Breathes, a deeply practical, evidence-based guide to caring for your brain in an overwhelming world. Together, Ash and Jodi explore the neuroscience behind burnout, decision fatigue and nervous system overload, and share simple, accessible ways to create breathing space in real life, even if you’re busy, ambitious and living in a city. This is a conversation about rest that isn’t fluffy, expensive or unrealistic.It’s about biology, seasons, nervous systems and learning how to live well without burning out. Why this episode matters: So much wellness advice is built for people with unlimited time, money and control over their schedules. This episode is different. It’s for people with busy jobs, big dreams, caregiving responsibilities, financial pressure and full lives, who still want to feel calm, clear and creative. If you’ve been telling yourself you just need to push harder, be more disciplined or try one more productivity hack, this conversation will gently show you an easier way.
