Transcribe →Glennon Doyle on body image, resilience - and that Ivanka Trump post
Jul 26, 202500:44:59Tap to summarizeWhen Glennon Doyle was diagnosed with anorexia in her 40s, her wife Abby was grieving the sudden death of her brother, and her sister Amanda had just been diagnosed with breast cancer. It was a year that brought all three of them to their knees — and became the unlikely foundation for their new book, We Can Do Hard Things. In this episode, Glennon opens up about what it means to keep showing up when the people you usually rely on are struggling, too. We talk about the power of friendship, the myth of having it all together, and the moment Glennon stopped hiding her illness — even on the red carpet. She reflects on visibility, activism, and why the most honest people often feel like the biggest messes. And for the first time, Glennon reveals how she felt when she saw Ivanka Trump holding a copy of her book Untamed in an Instagram post. Raw, wise and unexpectedly funny – just like this conversation is a reminder that none of us are doing this alone. Glennon’s new book We Can Do Hard Things is available here.

Six months on, axed Today star Alex Cullen is ready to talk
Jul 19, 202500:58:58Tap to summarizeThis week, Sarrah sits down with Alex Cullen for his first interview since the controversial “Lambo guy” incident that resulted in his departure from Today and Nine Network — as he exclusively reveals his plans for the future. In January, after he took up an offer from Melbourne-based billionaire Adrian Portelli, Alex found himself in the middle of a media storm that sparked national headlines. Now, in a raw and reflective conversation, he opens up about the personal and professional fallout, the toll it took on his mental health, and how close he came to walking away from the industry altogether. He talks about starting over — with a big move to Melbourne for him and his family, a new radio role on The Christian O’Connell Show, and in a Stellar exclusive, the announcement of his return to TV with Seven News. This is a story about public fallout, private resilience, and what it takes to start again… when the whole country is watching.

Billion dollar woman: how MCOBeauty's Shelley Sullivan built a beauty empire
Jun 21, 202500:44:54Tap to summarizeAustralia’s biggest beauty mogul, Shelley Sullivan, has built three powerhouse businesses from the ground up. At just 21, she launched a boutique modelling agency. While working with models, Shelley spotted beauty fails like DIY lash-curling burns and patchy self‑tans – which led to her first beauty innovation: a heated lash curler, then “tan‑in‑a‑can”, and the birth of her first brand, ModelCo. In 2016, Shelley targeted another gap: luxe-looking beauty at mass-market prices. MCoBeauty launched with 12 products, scaled to hundreds, and earlier this year was sold in a deal valuing the company at $1 billion. In this episode of Something To Talk About, Shelley opens up about building – and exiting – a billion-dollar beauty empire, trusting her instincts amid doubt, and life after the headlines.

The morning workout that got Laura Henshaw pregnant
Jun 14, 202500:47:17Tap to summarizeThis week on Something To Talk About, Laura Henshaw joins Sarrah Le Marquand for a powerful and deeply personal conversation, as she celebrates and talks about her just-announced pregnancy. It was, as Laura says, “a complete shock” that came after a year of questioning whether motherhood was even right for her. Today, Laura reflects on the fears she worked through as she grappled with whether becoming a parent would mean losing her sense of identity, the emotional moment she shared the news with her business partner Steph Claire Smith, and the unsolicited commentary she’s received about her body along the way. Plus, Laura speaks out on the rise of “manosphere” content online and why she felt compelled to challenge a podcaster who she believes was promoting outdated gender roles – a decision that would take her viral and spark a national conversation. Laura also discusses her new KicPod miniseries Am I Equal?, which explores the importance of informed conversations about finances, power, and partnership in modern relationships. Find the KicPod miniseries Am I Equal? wherever you get your podcasts. For more from Laura Henshaw, visit www.kicapp.com Watch the full episode with Laura here.

Abbie Chatfield doesn’t care what you think
Jun 7, 202500:53:32Tap to summarizeBeing investigated by the Australian Electoral Commission was not on Abbie Chatfield’s bingo card for 2025. But after interviewing Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and then Greens leader Adam Bandt on her podcast It’s A Lot, Abbie found herself at the centre of several conversations about the recent federal election campaign. In fact, some days it seemed there were more headlines written about Abbie than there were about Anthony Albanese or Peter Dutton. Today, Abbie sits down with Sarrah in the Something To Talk About studio to unpack her decision to speak out about politics – and the double standards at play when it’s a young, famous woman who dares to do so. She also talks about life and love as she prepares to turn 30, what it’s like to be in the middle of a very public feud, and whether or not we might see her mum on The Golden Bachelor… You can hear more from Abbie Chatfield on It’s A Lot, wherever you get your podcasts.
