The Panic Years
Subscribe to Mamamia There is something that happens to a lot of women between their mid twenties and early forties. It's a feeling, the anxiety that sets in as you make potentially the biggest decision of your life; whether or not to have a child. Writer and podcaster Nell Frizzell came up with a name for this period: The Panic Years. She explored this concept in her book of the same name, and joins guest host Jessie Stephens to talk about how she made up her mind, what happened when her partner didn't agree, and the biological inequality of it all.

The Conversation That Changed Narelda Jacobs’ Life
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. THE END BITS: With thanks to Megan Krakouer.

From ‘Blackout’ Drunk To Sobriety: Sarah Hepola’s Story
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... THE END BITS: With thanks to Sarah Hepola. Buy Blackout: Remembering the Things I Drank to Forget Feedback?

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… THE END BITS: Subscribe to Mamamia With thanks to Julia Haart.

Abi Morgan’s Husband Woke Up & Didn't Remember Her
Listen to the second half of Mia's conversation with Abi here. The last few years of Abi Morgan’s life would make an incredible TV show, although you might not believe it because of the plot twists. One of those twists is that Abi herself is an Emmy-award-winning screenwriter of movies like Iron Lady, with Meryl Streep, and TV dramas like The Split. But nothing could have prepared her for the cascading series of events that began on a very ordinary day. The crescendo of this story is that, after waking up from a coma, Abi's partner of 20 years didn't recognise her. And only her...

Julia Haart’s Unorthodox Life: Part One
Find part two of Mia's conversation with Julia here. 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… THE END BITS: Subscribe to Mamamia With thanks to Julia Haart.

Tracey Spicer’s Life With Long Covid
Three years ago, Tracey was named the NSW Premier’s Woman of the Year, accepted the Sydney Peace Prize alongside Tarana Burke for the Me Too Movement, and won the national award for Excellence in Women’s Leadership through Women and Leadership Australia. Today, most of Tracey’s days are spent at doctors appointments. She’s a multiple Walkley Award winning author and broadcaster who has anchored programs all over Australia. We’re sure she didn’t imagine that in July 2022 she’d be on No Filter, speaking about how she became one of the unlucky ones: a sufferer of the dreaded Long Covid. Long Covid means your symptoms have persisted for longer than 12 weeks after initial infection. What’s interesting though, is that there might be new symptoms. You could feel like you’re actually getting sick with something else entirely. And for some, their condition continues to deteriorate. Tracey has been sick for 204 days.
