The Conversation That Changed Narelda Jacobs’ Life Jan 22, 2023

Show notes

This week on No Filter, we’re proud to welcome back Narelda Jacobs as our guest host.

In October 2022, hundreds of people were gathering across the country to attend vigils for Cassius Turvey, the 15-year-old Noongar Yamatji boy who was tragically murdered last year. Along with Cassius’ mother, the woman who organised those vigils across the country was Megan Krakouer.

Megan is the director of the National Suicide Prevention & Trauma Recovery Project. She is also the first person to answer the phone and show up in her community when a First Nations individual needs help or support, 24 hours a day.

On this episode of No Filter, Megan and Narelda have a frank conversation about how Australia is experiencing another stolen generation.

Please note that this conversation contains mentions of suicide. Please call Lifeline on 13 11 14 if you need support.

From ‘Blackout’ Drunk To Sobriety: Sarah Hepola’s Story Jan 08, 2023

Show notes

Subscribe to Mamamia

You might have heard the phrase ‘black out drunk’ before, which might evoke images of someone asleep or passed out. But that’s not what it is. Blacking out is when you’re conscious and walking around, but can’t remember anything afterwards. And that’s what has happened to journalist Sarah Hepola, dozens of times.

Drinking became a normal part of her life, like a lot of people; a social lubricant, a way to meet new people, and a party starter. But as the nights got more and more hazy, she realised she needed to make a change...

What Happened When Trinny Woodall Came To Mamamia? Jan 01, 2023

Show notes

You can watch Mia and Trinny's interview in full here.

When Trinny Woodall stepped into the Mamamia office for this special live No Filter interview, the atmosphere was electric. Because Trinny has an energy about her that is exciting, unafraid, and very fun.

She joined Mia on the show a few years ago to speak about her life and career up to that point, but this time delved into the nitty gritty of owning her incredibly successful lady start-up, Trinny London. They chat about what it’s like launching a beauty brand, how she manages her time and staff, and why her 50s were her most interesting decade yet.

The Girl Who Fell From The Sky Dec 18, 2022

Show notes

Listen to the rest of Mia's conversation with Emma Carey here.

When Emma Carey was in Switzerland on a once in a lifetime holiday, she decided to go skydiving. But jumping out of that helicopter changed her life forever, because as the ground came up to meet her, her parachute didn’t go off. And Emma hit the ground.

But Emma’s story is about so much more than this moment. And her insights on disability, dating, and why she doesn’t want to be called an inspiration, are riveting.

This is Emma Carey’s story, the girl who fell from the sky.

Best Of 2022: Julia Haart’s Unorthodox Life: Part One Dec 07, 2022

Show notes

Find part two of Mia's conversation with Julia here.

Subscribe to Mamamia

Until she was 40, every aspect of Julia Haart’s life, was tightly, tightly controlled. What she ate, what she thought, what she wore, and what she was allowed to do in a day. Julia was part of an ultra-Orthodox community in New York – a type of extreme form of religion called Haredi Judaism.
But, after having 4 kids, Julia decided to escape.

Before we jump in, just a quick note - and some context.

It’s important to bear in mind that these are Julia’s personal experiences. They do not speak for the many and varied experiences of all Jewish women - Orthodox, Ultra-Orthodox, or otherwise.

And on those terms - ‘Orthodox’ and ‘Ultra-Orthodox’ - while we use them interchangeably, it’s important to note that actually, Julia’s experience is within an Ultra-Orthodox community of Monsey, New York. This is just one niche sect in a spectrum of many, each with varying customs.

This is part one of her story…
