Things You Can't Un-Hear

Today’s episode is one that I believe all women need to listen to - because the rates of breast cancer in Australia and around the world are increasing and they are affecting women of all ages.
To have this conversation, I invited specialist breast surgeon Dr Jasmina Kevric - who operates from leading hospitals including Epworth and Cabrini in Melbourne.
Dr Jasimina Kevric speaks to us today about the different types of breast cancer, the stages and grades that determine the diagnosis and the treatment that is offered for each different type of cancer.
This is information that is vital to understanding what is happening to you and your body - if you are diagnosed, and I hope this will be a valuable resource to so many women who may have sat in their surgeon or oncologists office, and barely heard anything their doctor told them, after the words “you have breast cancer” were shared because it is common that everything said after that moment is a blur!
This is not just for women who are or have experienced a diagnosis - it is also for partners and friends who want to understand it more and this is for all women who want to empower themselves with knowledge to decrease and even prevent their risks of breast cancer AND it is for for those who want more information about the increase in diagnosis during the perimenopause and menopausal ages and how we can safely treat menopause without putting ourselves at further risk.
Dr Jasmina herself has such an interesting and inspiring personal story - which we also share in this chat — from arriving in Australia as a refugee to becoming a leading female surgeon dedicated to supporting women through some of the most challenging moments of their lives. I know this episode is important. So after you listen I want you to send it to all of your friends / family members who need to hear it too. And I want to hear your thoughts on anything that is shared here today - because this is a conversation that we need to keep having.

This guided meditation is designed to help you move from preparation into trust. Listen daily for 21 days to rewire your nervous system around speaking with confidence and calm. Especially use it in the lead up to a presentation or right before you take the stage.
If you’ve ever felt nervous before speaking, doubted your message, or overthought your words — this is for you.
Inside this practice, you’ll calm your body, steady your breath, release self-doubt, and visualise the people in front of you — their smiles, their nods, their resonance with your message. You’ll anchor the belief that your voice matters and that you are already ready.
This meditation is for leaders, entrepreneurs, creatives, professionals — anyone preparing to present, pitch, speak, record, or step into greater visibility.
You’ve done the work.Now it’s time to trust.

Ellie Cole is one of Australia’s most decorated Paralympians — but this conversation isn’t about medals.
It’s about identity. Perspective. Family. Inclusion. And what resilience really means when life doesn’t unfold the way you expected.
Diagnosed with cancer at just three years old, Ellie underwent a leg amputation before she even formed memories of her early childhood. What followed was not just survival — but an extraordinary sporting career spanning four Paralympic Games and 17 medals, including six gold.
But behind the podium moments is a deeply human story.
In this episode, Ellie opens up about growing up with difference, navigating the emotional realities of childhood illness, and the quiet strength of her family during that time. We talk about the evolution of prosthetics and what it actually feels like to live as an amputee in a world still learning what inclusion truly means.
We also explore:
The psychology of competition and shifting definitions of success

Paralympic team dynamics and classification complexities

Body image, identity and visibility

Navigating sexuality and family acceptance

Motherhood and perspective

The mindset shifts that moved her from surviving to thriving

This episode will stay with you like it did with me.

Today’s conversation is with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon — physician, researcher and founder of the Muscle-Centric Medicine® movement. She has dedicated her career to redefining what healthy aging really means by putting one often-overlooked organ at the centre of it all: skeletal muscle.
Recorded live at the Wanderlust Wellspring Biohacking and Longevity Summit, this episode dives into why building and maintaining muscle isn’t just about aesthetics — it’s the foundation of longevity, metabolic health and resilience.
Dr. Lyon shares how her research into geriatric and nutritional sciences led her to see the body differently, how muscle becomes the “organ of longevity,” and why age-, diet- and gender-based myths keep us stuck in endless cycles of losing weight rather than gaining life.
We talk protein thresholds, muscular health for menopause, the risk of ignoring muscle decline and the hope of reclaiming strength at any age.
Whether you’re 25 or 75, this conversation will shift how you see your body, your strength and your future.
