    Jules & Lisa Couch Catch-Up: Letting Your Kids Be Who They Are, Parental Growth, & School Stories

    In this episode of Tea with Jules, Jules is joined by Lisa Johnston for a very honest, very relatable conversation about the emotional whiplash of school returning. Routines, exhaustion, expectations, and the quiet pressure parents put on themselves (and their kids) without even realising it. There’s laughter, vulnerability, a few parenting confessions that may sting a little, and plenty of moments where you’ll think, oh wow.. that’s me.  This episode is for anyone who’s navigating school drop-offs, parenting guilt, changing seasons of family life, or trying to learn how to guide their kids without controlling them. Because sometimes the hardest part of parenting is learning when to hold on and when to let go.

    What's Really Going On Inside Your Brain? How Social Media, AI, & Modern Life Is Reshaping Us - Dr Lila Landowski (Leading Neuroscientist)

    In this episode of Tea with Jules, Jules sits down with one of Australia’s leading neuroscientists, Dr Lila Landowski, for a fascinating, eye-opening conversation about what’s really going on inside our brains - and how modern life, social media, habits, multitasking, and AI are quietly reshaping the way we think, feel, focus, and connect. If you’ve ever wondered why your attention feels scattered, why habits are so hard to stick to, or why scrolling leaves you exhausted but oddly unsatisfied - this episode will make you feel deeply seen (and a lot more informed). Together, Jules and Lila break down complex brain science into practical, relatable moments. What you'll learn in this episode: Why your brain craves shortcuts and how habits are actually formed at  neurological levelThe real reason motivation drops off when there’s no immediate rewardHow dopamine works as both a reward and a habit-builderWhy multitasking feels productive but is actually draining your brain’s energyHow social media is designed to fragment attention and keep you scrollingWhy face-to-face connection gives us brain chemicals that texting never canWhat boredom actually does for creativity (and why kids need it)How exercise, silence, and green space physically improve brain healthWhy AI worries neuroscientists and how to use it without outsourcing your thinkingWhat happens to the brain as we age (and how to protect it)The powerful science of belief effects and how mindset literally changes physiologyDisclaimer: This podcast episode is intended for general information and personal reflection only.

    Welcome back, Tea-mates and welcome to the very first episode of Tea with Jules for 2026!

    Preparing Your Child To Meet Difference With Empathy - Sean Szeps On Identity, Finding Acceptance, Otherness, & More

    In this deeply moving and powerfully honest episode of Tea with Jules, Jules sits down with writer, speaker, content creator, podcast host, and fierce LGBTQIA+ advocate Sean Szeps.  What begins as a conversation about parenting quickly expands into something much bigger: identity, belonging, empathy, religion, raising kind humans, finding love, rewriting the script of your life, and the courage it takes to live as your truest self. Sean shares his extraordinary journey - from growing up in a deeply religious community in the U.S., to navigating his sexuality alone as a child, to eventually coming out and finding acceptance, love, marriage, and fatherhood. He opens up about internalised shame, choosing between two impossible futures, the moment the world shifted and parenthood became a real possibility, and the emotional rollercoaster of raising twins through surrogacy. Jules and Sean dive into otherness - the feeling of being different and how every one of us, regardless of sexuality, gender, or background, has experienced moments of being the “only one in the room.” Together they explore how parents can prepare children to meet difference with empathy, curiosity, and compassion. This episode is emotional, uplifting, raw, hilarious, and full of wisdom, the kind that deepens your understanding of yourself and the world around you.  Tea-mates buckle up. We go there.

    Why Sleep Is The Ultimate Superpower - Dr Carmel Harrington (Sleep Scientist) On Sleep's Role In Mood, Memory, Dementia, & More

    In this powerful and deeply moving episode of Tea with Jules, I sit down with sleep scientist, author and advocate Dr Carmel Harrington, whose life’s work began with unimaginable loss. After the sudden infant death of her son Damien, Carmel left a successful law career to pursue a PhD in sleep medicine and has since become an internationally recognised expert in the science of sleep. Carmel shares what actually happens in our brains and bodies while we sleep, why it impacts everything from our mood and memory to dementia risk, and how our modern, always-on lifestyles are quietly eroding one of the most important foundations of our health. If you’ve ever stayed up scrolling, pulled an all-nighter, or told yourself you can “push through” on little sleep, this conversation will gently (but firmly) change the way you think about rest. You’ll walk away with a new understanding of why sleep is non-negotiable, plus practical, realistic strategies to protect your sleep – even in busy seasons of life with kids, work, and a very full plate. In this episode we chat about Carmel’s origin storyA groundbreaking SIDS discoveryWhy sleep is not optionalYour brain’s nightly ‘shower’Sleep, memory and moodThe melatonin storyReclaiming sleep in a busy lifeWind-down rituals that workWhen your brain won’t switch offDifferent sleep schedules under one roofThe one mindset shift that changes everything Connect with Dr Harrington Sleep for Health LinkedIn Connect with Jules Get Jules’ Newsletter – a letter each week with personal antidotes, recipes, fashion, cocktails podcast episodesJules Best Selling Book – Tea & HonestlyWatch Tea with Jules on YouTubeFollow Jules on InstagramFollow Tea with Jules on InstagramFollow Jules on TikTokSubscribe to Tea with Jules the Podcast in iTunesCredits: Sound Engineer & Music: @kailesh_reitmans Videographer & Editor: @nathan_niguidula Producer: @lisajohnston_ @julessebastian Welcome to Tea with Jules hosted by Jules Sebastian.
