    Fashion Mistakes & Life Lessons with Kirstie Clements

    Ever wondered 'Why (the F*ck) did I buy that?' - You are not alone, my friend. It was wonderfully reassuring to hear that this week's guest - the ever-stylish Kirstie Clements (former Editor-In-Chief of Vogue Australia, best-selling author & columnist) has too suffered at the hands of a rash purchase. Her latest book, 'Why Did I Buy That?' is packed full of well-groomed wisdom and we dig into a whole bunch of it on the pod. We discuss everything from ageing gracefully, to what NOT to spend your money on. From why lip fillers are not flattering, to why you should apply the 30 x rule to new purchases. Do anti-ageing creams really work? Can I shop at Zara without being feeling like I am fuelling the fast fashion industry? Are designer shoes a good investment? Can I LIVE in activewear and still cling to some semblance of style? Tune in to find out. If you enjoy this week's episode I'd be tickled if you could show it some 5-star love. Thanking you!

    How to Build Better Relationships (with ourselves and others) with Blake Worrall-Thompson

    In this episode, I chat with one of Australia's leading lifestyle and performance coaches, Blake Worrall-Thompson (BWT) about everything from shame to conspiracy theories. We discuss where women (and men) are going wrong in their relationships, why having a coach is so key to success and how hitting rock bottom was (probably) the best thing that ever happened to him. Blake's honesty and experience made him a great guest that I ended up waffling on for a little longer than usual - I hope you enjoy it! P.S. Leaving a review will make you blindingly attractive. Fact ;) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    How to Be a Better (& More Hopeful) Human with Emily Ehlers

    Sure, there might be a whole lot of stuff wrong with our world at the moment (climate change, inequality, poverty, waste, systemic racism - oh my!) BUT this week's guest, Emily Ehlers, wants us to remember 'Hope is a Verb' (which is also the title of her wonderfully illustrated new book) - which means that we CAN do something about it. We discuss radical optimism, living in alignment with your values (always), how to realise your true agency and how someone fairly far down the socially responsible food chain (like me) can do more and make our community, suburb and world a better place. I hope you enjoy our chat & if you do it would be ace if you'd sprinkle some 5-star love my way. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Exploring New Age Practices & The World of Woo Woo with Amal Awad

    What would you do in the name of spiritual enlightenment? See a psychic? Channel your inner spirit guide? Try dance therapy? This week I chat with Amal Awad, journalist, author and sceptical believer about the wonderful world of Woo Woo. We discuss the attraction of New Age practices, how not to get suckered in by everything you hear, how 'stuff' is never going to fix our internal suffering and how instead of manifesting we should instead try 'tuning in to what is manifest' for us. Whether you think this kind of stuff is nonsense or you love every crystal healing, oracle card toting, miracle promising minute of it, this ep is for you. I hope you enjoy it. PS - If you do, it would put an extra spring in my step if you could write me a review! Thanks :) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Manifesting the Life (& True Love) You Want with Jordanna Levin

    Can we really manifest the kind of life we truly desire? Or is this just another self-help ploy that is super easy to get sucked into? In this week's episode, I chat with bestselling author and podcast host Jordanna Levin about the Manifestation Equation, your personal vibration (I know - it's not as kooky as it sounds), how to find REAL love even against the backdrop of heartbreak, dating apps and our tendency to morph into what we think he wants us to be. If you a ready to take control of your destiny, but don't want too much wishy-washy woo woo, then this Ep will be right up your alley. P.S. If you enjoy this episode I'd be rather chuffed if you could write me a review! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    The Secret of Half-Arsed Parenting with Dr. Susie O'Brien

    Being a parent is hard. What would your life look like if, instead of competing for the title of the parent of the year, you instead (gasp!) did a little LESS parenting? In this week's episode, I chat with journalist and author, Susie O'Brien, on the many merits of half-arsed parenting. We discuss everything from 'sharenting' on social media, the perils of helicopter parenting (guilty, your honour!), building resilience and if maybe your teenager was just having a 'posh w**k'. If you are looking for the guilt-free way to not be consumed whole by sheer pressure and exhaustion of raising small people, then you have come to the right place, my friend. P.S. If you enjoy this episode I'd be tickled if you leave a review! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
