Inherited

Hello!

Today I’m joined by Courtney Ugle. Courtney is a proud Ballardong/Wardandi Noongar woman, the founder of Waangkiny, a passionate advocate in the domestic violence space, and a seriously talented football player.

In this conversation, Courtney shares the experiences that have shaped who she is today. She speaks about losing her dad when she was just 11, and later losing her mum to domestic violence when she was 19, and the grief, love and resilience that have followed her through those chapters of her life.

We also talk about the strength she’s built along the way, the importance of community, stories about her relationship with her partner, the footy sock ritual she just can’t shake, and the work she’s doing today to help drive meaningful change.

If you'd like to support Courtney, head to Waangkiny website or follow Waangkiny on Instagram.

This conversation touches on themes of family and domestic violence, so please listen with care. If you or a loved one needs support, please contact 1800 RESPECT.

Hello!

Today I’m joined by British pop artist Maisie Peters. Maisie is quite literally a ray of sunshine. At just 25, she’s already supported Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, and Taylor Swift on the Eras Tour, and made her debut at Glastonbury.

Maisie grew up busking on the streets of Brighton and sharing her music on YouTube. In this conversation, we talk about how she eventually signed to Ed Sheeran’s label and how important that relationship has been for her over the past few years.

Maisie also chats about collaborating with Chicken Shop Date host Amelia Dimoldenberg, choosing Benny Drama to play the heartthrob in the music video for her latest single My Regards, and how falling in love has influenced the lyricism on her new music.

If you'd like to support Maisie, head here! to pre-order her new album, Florescence.

Hello!

Today, I’m joined by Jamila Rizvi. Jamila is an author, public speaker, and Deputy Managing Director of ⁠Future Women,⁠ where she champions gender equality across Australian workplaces.

At just 31, and a first-time mum to her son Rafi, Jamila was diagnosed with a rare brain tumour. What followed were countless medical appointments, two brain surgeries, and 36 rounds of radiation. Today, the tumour is the size of half a grain of rice, a tiny physical reminder of a life-altering chapter that reshaped her perspective in profound ways.

In this episode, we also talk about building a career inside government at a young age, navigating ambition alongside motherhood, and the power of asking for help from friends and family during the hardest seasons of life.

If you'd like to support Jamila, head to the ⁠All About Women Festival⁠ on International Women's Day, this Sunday, the 8th of March.

This conversation touches on themes of body image and disordered eating, if you or are loved needs support, please contact ⁠The Butterfly Foundation 1800 33 4673. ⁠

Hello!

Today on the podcast, I’m joined by Australian beauty content creator and first-time mum, Madeleine Edwards.

In this conversation, Madeleine opens up about her journey in the beauty industry, from building her platform to navigating the ever-evolving (and often unrealistic) standards that shape the world of beauty.

We also dive into a more personal chapter of her life: falling pregnant with her daughter, Carmine, stepping into motherhood, and the terrifying moment during birth when she thought she might lose her.

Hello!

Today, I’m joined by Sophie Cachia. Sophie is a Melbourne-based content creator, business owner and mum to her three children, Bobby, Floss and Esme.

After more than a decade in the public eye, Sophie has learned to tune out the noise and live life on her own terms. In this episode, she opens up about marrying and divorcing in her 20s, the deeply personal journey of coming to terms with her sexuality, and navigating the challenges of dating and relationships in the spotlight.

Sophie also shares insights into her blended family, the beautiful co-parenting dynamic she’s built, and the role her partner, Maddy Prespakis, plays in their lives. She speaks candidly about online criticism, including commentary around their 10-year age gap, and why she no longer lets strangers’ opinions define her.
