And We're Rolling with Stephanie Hunt

There was a time soon after having my first daughter, in the depths of sleep deprivation and baby brain, and I was staying at my brother and sister-in-law's house, and I really needed a cup of tea. So, I somehow put their electric kettle on a gas top stove … and lit it… almost setting their kitchen on fire. (Sorry Tomo and Anj!) I also recall not being able to recall simple words - like looking at a toaster and thinking, “Yeah…what is that called?” and constantly trying to pay for groceries with a Medicare card. Right. So, how do we know the difference between cognitive decline and old age… or just a lack of sleep? And what are the simple steps we can take now to save our precious brain. Well, Dr Ginni Mansberg is a GP, well-known TV host - you've probably seen her on Channel 7's Sunrise and The Morning Show, and a best-selling author. And her new book is called Save Your Brain. Ginni interviewed 22 brain experts around the world to find easy-to-implement strategies to keep our brain functioning at its best. Her book looks at the fact that almost half of all cases of cognitive decline could have been prevented or delayed and that dementia is the leading cause of death in women. Plus, the role anxiety, depression, peri and menopause play. In true Dr Ginni style, her advice is upbeat, practical and fun. From sleep, to burnout, and the importance of connection and working, Ginni gives us a smorgasbord - an all-you-can-eat buffet - of ways to help save our brain.And just a reminder, if you ever need it Lifeline's crisis support service is available any time of the day or night on 13 11 14 .SHOWNOTESDr Ginni's book Save Your Brain: https://www.booktopia.com.au/save-your-brain-ginni-mansberg/book/9781922616340.htmlDr Ginni's website: https://www.drginni.com.auDr Ginni's Instagram: @doctorginniSupport the showWe love that you're listening!

Gaslighting, love bombing, surveillance, financial and coercive control - these are just some of the most common forms of non-physical abuse against women.And former professional Australian basketballer Alex Bunton knows all about it. Alex met her perpetrator at the height of her career having just won a World Cup silver medal with the Opals - but also at a time she was most vulnerable. She'd had 11 knee surgeries and knew she'd soon have to retire. She explains how her perpetrator cut her off from loved ones, made her think she was crazy, and drained her bank account on her birthday, while she was pregnant. … a period of deep shame and isolation followed.Alex, alongside seven other victim-survivors, has joined with Future Women to be part of season 2 of the award-winning podcast series, There's No Place Like Home, to share their experiences and to raise the question: would you notice the red flags of an abusive relationship? That nagging feeling that something is not quite right.In today's chat with Alex and Future Women's Founder and Managing Director, (and all round media queen), Helen McCabe, we discuss how to spot the red flags; the steps to take to transition towards safety; and also how to help loved ones in need - without them feeling shame or judgment.Content note: This podcast includes descriptions of family violence and may be upsetting to some listeners.

Elise Loehnen is a writer, editor and podcast host. She's also the author of the newly released and instant New York Times bestseller On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good. Previously, Elise was the chief content officer of goop, where she co-hosted The goop Podcast and she also co-hosted The goop Lab on Netflix. We start our conversation with Elise talking me through the pivotal moment at the end of 2019, feeling inadequate and exhausted, and contending with consuming anxiety and panic. She realised the way she was living her life simply could not be sustained. Elise came to recognise that, like so many of us, she was using work - and a ramped up level of busyness - as a tool to numb and to keep her fears at bay. Through the process of writing this book, and ultimately changing her life, Elise learnt the value of sitting in the discomfort, re-connecting to our inner knowing, prioritising rest, and interrupting our social conditioning.She shares her simple steps to get really clear on our basic needs, wants and who it is that we want to be, as a person.SHOWNOTESElise's instant New York Times bestseller: On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good.

Sophie Walker is the creator and host of the hugely successful Australian Birth Stories podcast. The poddy has more than 11 million downloads, and 350 episodes of women sharing their birth experience - and not just the blissful bits.Sophie's podcast community has become a sort of virtual birthing village - especially during covid lockdowns. “I wish I had known!” or “Why didn't someone tell me!” are phrases often uttered by women after they give birth for the first time, but Sophie's aim is to share the wisdom and the stories, so that others can make informed and empowered decisions as they prepare for their new stage of motherhood.And now, along with the help of brilliant author Jodi Wilson, the pair has written and released The Complete Australian Guide to Pregnancy and Birth.The book weaves through stories from the podcast but also draws on the expertise of perinatal experts and is medically reviewed by a series of doctors. It covers the first/second/and third trimester > labor and birth > and early post-partum. It also doesn't shy away from challenging topics which can often be glazed over.Sophie's created the book she wishes she could've had. SHOW NOTESBUY THE BOOK: The Complete Australian Guide to Pregnancy and Birthhttps://www.booktopia.com.au/the-complete-australian-guide-to-pregnancy-and-birth-sophie-walker/book/9781922616036.html?source=pla&gclid=CjwKCAiArNOeBhAHEiwAze_nKIoxRsRWJZSc64Gyt3WXVk31qouQXKH3svptRZ48sVnx07XKln-cDBoC-2sQAvD_BwEWEBSITE: https://australianbirthstories.com/podcasts/INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/australianbirthstories/We acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which we have recorded this podcast, the Darug people.

There's a saying often thrown around by parents in the depths of frustration and despair: “What Would Maggie Dent Do?” I've asked this question about five times already today!! Including, whilst trying to work out the modern-day rules of Pass the Parcel for our four-year-old's birthday party. Very intense!Maggie Dent is known as Australia's queen of common-sense parenting. She's anti-guilt, and wants us to lower the bar.As an author, educator and mum of four boys, Maggie has all the answers when it comes to teaching kids resilience and finding their inner calm. Maggie's known for her books on parenting boys - and her ABC podcast Parental As Anything has just won gold at the Australian Podcast Awards - but she's now released Girlhood: Raising our little girls to be healthy, happy and heard. The idea for the book came from Maggie trying to work out why girls and women can often seem to lose their sense of power and their voice.We chat about the ridiculous pressure on women to be the perfect parent, and the unfair pitting of mums against each other.Plus, the link between self esteem and social media; the importance of grandmas and aunties; and how to stop the conditioning of our girls, which leaves them feeling timid and weak. Maggie also reflects on her struggles and how writing Girlhood took her on her very own personal journey.SHOW NOTESBUY GIRLHOOD: https://www.maggiedent.com/shop/books/girlhood/MAGGIE'S WEBSITE: https://www.maggiedent.com/MAGGIE'S INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/MaggieDentAuthor/MAGGIE'S FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/MaggieDentAuthor/We acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which we have recorded this podcast, the Darug people.

Anxiety is one of the most common and truly unpleasant mental health conditions on the planet.But can anxiety be useful? And, in fact, even good for us, even though it feels so bad?This is the belief of today's guest, Dr Tracy Dennis-Tiwary, who is a leading psychology and neuroscience professor at The City University of New York, an anxiety researcher, and author of the new book ‘Future Tense'.Dr Tracy wants us to acknowledge the discomfort of anxiety and see it as a tool, rather than something to fear or suppress.In our chat Dr Tracy talks about her own experience and outlines her radical new framework - which can be used to prep elite performers but also to help support kids and families - to reclaim anxiety as the advantage she says it has evolved to be.

Hello!! When I started this podcast 18 months ago Turia Pitt was at the top of my wish list - she's an international inspiration - and here we are. Turia Pitt is grit and hard work. She's also the queen of mindset and a firm believer that anyone can run. In 2011, at the age of 24, Turia was a fitness junkie with her dream job as a successful mining engineer, when she was caught in an out-of-control grassfire while competing in a 100km ultramarathon in Western Australia. It was several hours before medical help arrived and Turia was air-lifted out of the remote desert barely alive, with full thickness burns to 65 percent of her body. Turia lost seven of her fingers and spent over six months undergoing excruciating rehab.The doctors didn't expect Turia to survive, never mind walk, run, or be independent again.But in what is truly a story of triumph over the unimaginable, Turia has gone on to complete two ironman competitions, written best selling books, and become a mum with her partner Michael to two young boys.Turia has also helped hundreds of women (mostly mums!) learn to run themselves through her program RUN with Turia. Which I've done - twice - and truly loved it. I chat with Turia from her new home up in Far North Queensland, about mindset, motherhood and making new friends as an adult. Turia is really funny and we bond over our love of margaritas and our often eccentric dads who taught us to always “just have a go” and “never give up”.Turia reminds us about why it's so important to fill our own cup and put our own needs first, and to be ok with imperfection and being a beginner all over again.SHOW NOTES:If you want to join the next round of Turia's running program, Run With Turia, head to her website turiapitt.com/run and sign up.

Perhaps it's coming through a global pandemic, or the rising cost of living, or the passing of the great leader and monarch Queen Elizabeth II. All of the above and more, probably - so it's no wonder that it can feel like the world is in a bit of a spin at the moment.Well this week's episode will hopefully help. It's all about taking a deep breath and pausing to find clarity and also joy in the simple things. It's about practising simplicity. And the easy, small steps you can take and brave choices you can make for a life less distracted. Jodi Wilson is an author, photographer and mother of four who has not only written the book, but has made her own life-changing decision to flip everything about the way her family lives.In the midst of the rush and the race of everyday life and saving for a house deposit in a soaring property market, in a suburb she didn't really feel connected to, Jodi felt frustrated and complacent. She felt unmotivated, uninspired and frankly quite angry. She knew something big had to change.It was a gamble, but Jodi and her husband, sold most of their belongings, spent their hard-earned house deposit on a car and a caravan, and packed up their four kids, to travel Australia.I love this chat with Jodi - who now happily lives with her family near the beach in Tasmania. There's no nagging or preaching. Instead Jodi gently reminds us about the value in owning less, reconnecting with nature, respecting those dreams tucked away inside … brewing, and observing tiny moments of joy that prove we don't need a lot to live well.

If you're into the food and wine scene, especially in Melbourne, there's a good chance you've met Jess Ho. Either whilst you're trying to get into a fancy restaurant… or being looked after inside.Fine dining is a glitzy, showy, Instagram-worthy world, where people love to be seen, but in their new memoir, ‘Raised by Wolves', Jess lifts the lid on what is often a toxic and messy workplace. Jess says hospitality staff are overworked, underpaid, dealing with rude customers with ridiculous requests and crazy food trends. And then of course, there are the celebrity chefs.In the memoir, Jess also tells the story of growing up Cantonese in the outer suburbs of Melbourne; bullied, facing ongoing racism and living in a dysfunctional family, who only made peace over food. At 15 Jess won the right to move out on their own, and from there find their own community and forge a career.Along with running restaurants and owning a wine bar, Jess has been a restaurant brand strategist, a food and drink editor, worked on podcasts for BBC and SBS and as a judge on a TV food show, which Jess says didn't go to plan - at all.SHOW NOTESBOOK CREDIT:Raised by Wolves: a memoir with bite by Jess Ho (Affirm Press $29.99)Buy Jess' book.PODCAST: Bad Taste on SBS Food.Find Jess on Twitter @thatjessho & Instagram @thatdamnjesshoWe acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which we have recorded this podcast, the Darug people.

BBC's Human Planet is one of the most spectacular documentary series ever made. It took four years to make and was filmed in more than 40 countries - many of the most remote on the globe.Human Planet uncovers nature's greatest human stories, and celebrates our ability to adapt and live in virtually every habitat - from scorching deserts to frozen poles and steamy jungles.The landmark series received eight BAFTA nominations, winning two: for cinematography and editing. It also won an Emmy and best natural history series at the Panda awards. And this week's guest, Dale Templar, was the series producer - the creative brains behind it all.As a documentary and TV maker, Dale specialises in filming in extreme and often dangerous locations with both humans and wildlife. Her adventures have taken her everywhere, including Antarctica and the North Pole. (And she has produced and directed a range of stars including British adventurer Bear Grylls.) This is such a rare chance to hear from one of the greatest doco producers on the planet. Dale reflects on the lessons she learnt from producing the Human Planet series; the grit and gumption needed to be a world-class producer - especially since forming her own independent production company, One Tribe TV, with her husband; and her experience of working with Bear Grylls and other celebs in the jungles of Costa Rica.SHOW NOTESOne Tribe TV's Website: https://www.onetribetv.co.uk/More about Dale: https://www.onetribetv.co.uk/dale-templarWe acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which we have recorded this podcast, the Darug people.

Richelle Carey is an Emmy Award-winning American journalist and global news anchor. She's worked around the world for outlets including Al Jazeera and CNN. Richelle is also a host and moderator and - most recently - a first-time mum, at age 50.Like many journalists, Richelle's career took her to the other side of the world, living abroad and interviewing everyone from presidents to Janet Jackson.But her desire to be a mum led to her biggest decision: to quit her dream job in the Middle East and head home for the chance to start a family.After freezing her eggs at 42 and an unsuccessful round of IVF a few years later, Richelle moved back in with her parents in Texas in 2020 and set out on an adoption journey which led her to finally have a child of her own last year - her little boy named Avery. He is absolutely divine.In our chat we talk about Richelle's career and her path to motherhood, and the types of pressures women feel that men don't. SHOW NOTESRichelle on Instagram @richellecareyRichelle's website: richellecarey.comWe acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which we have recorded this podcast, the Darug people.

Hello, we're coming to you earlier than usual this week, but we wanted to share this story as soon as possible. It's easy to feel helpless and overwhelmed when it comes to hearing about the War in Ukraine. But this chat is all about how the power of art - via an enormous patchwork quilt - is helping to re-connect kids across Ukraine and show them the world cares.Australian artist Janno McLaughlin is brilliant. She lives with her family in Scone in regional Australia, and has spent most of her adult art life working between New York and slums in Buenos Aires, creating immersive art installations and exhibitions.By chance, Janno met Ukrainian journalist Iryna Pyrtko-Moroz a few years ago when Janno was asked to judge an art competition in Ukraine, organised by Iryna, to help boost the many young kids affected by COVID-19 lockdowns. Fast forward to today, and these kids are now battling the horrors of war, with families having fled or in hiding and many of their schools bombed and destroyed. Janno reached out to Iryna, desperate to check if the young art students were ok, and to see how she could help, and from there Janno's idea of creating a Christo-style, bright yellow sunflower quilt - with patches sent to her from people all over the world - was born. The huuuuge quilt would not only be a show of love for the kids, but could be draped over bombed buildings and landmarks.Well - the quilt is now more than 100 metres long - more than 9,000 patches have been sent from Ukraine and around the world, and it's just landed in London. First stop the Ukrainian Embassy and the Royal Albert Hall!! And from there, it goes to Ukraine. **And keep an eye out for the Quilt of Ukraine featuring at London's Royal Albert Hall and 10 Downing St following the Proms concert by the Ukrainian Freedom Orchestra on July 31. **And Janno is still collecting and sewing-in patches to add to the giant Quilt for Ukraine - so if you'd like to be involved you can post your 30cm x 30cm patch to Janno at:Janno McLaughlinPO BOX 746, Scone, NSW 2337.SHOW NOTESJanno on Instagram @jannoartIryna on Instagram @ira_pyrtkoWe acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which we have recorded this podcast, the Darug people.

Lisa had no experience in the mag industry but almost overnight Collective Hub became a global sensation.

From her home in Texas, Lisa talks about life, resilience, how to find your purpose, why she gave up drinking, the best tips for starting your own business, and why public speaking used to be her greatest fear until she created her own unconventional way to zap those nerves.BONUS:  Because we love you, we want you to enjoy a 20% discount when you purchase Lisa's new "Start Up to Scale Up" book.

Bonnie, Lana and Erin have been best friends for close to 20 years. They've seen each other through the rollercoaster ride of life: marriage, babies and careers. In 2014, they took a leap of faith - together - quitting their day jobs in Sydney to create Three Birds Renovations. Bonnie doing the styling and designs, Lana across sales and marketing, and Erin on operations. Before they knew it the trio had bought, renovated and sold their first property. Fast forward to today and that small business is now a global juggernaut. They've transformed 14 beautiful houses, they're helping to smash the gender stereotype in the building game with tens of thousands of women taking part in their online courses, like The Reno School, they've authored two books, one of which is Australia's best selling home improvement title, and they've become social media sensations - with their videos watched in more than 110 countries.In this chat with Bonnie and Lana we talk about the early days: gambling a cushy corporate gig to go out alone; the pros and cons of setting up a business with your best mates; their tools for staying inspired and overcoming confidence slumps - even when your company is a huge success - and the realisation that they are living the dream… even though it's taken a whole lot of blood, sweat and tears.

Edwina Bartholomew and Pip Brett have been best mates since school. Along with a million other wonderful talents, Edwina is the newsreader on Australia's number 1 breakfast TV show, Sunrise. For the Seven Network, Edwina has also hosted the Olympics, Dancing With the Stars, and interviewed the biggest celebs on the planet like Lady Gaga, Elton John and Jennifer Aniston.Pip is the creative genius and non-stop dreamer and designer behind the hugely successful homewares, art and fashion empire, Jumbled. Pip is the energiser bunny - she finds fun, colourful, must-have pieces that are to die for, and has released endless Jumbled collaborations with top brands.And over the years these two brilliant women have shown each other non-stop support. They've celebrated the wins and of course been there for the losses.The three of us record this interview on a bed in Edwina's house. (Hilarious!!) We were trying to avoid the sounds of the building going on downstairs, (you'll hear a bit of it!) barks from Mate the cattle dog, and allow little Molly to sleep. In bed, we chat about the power of friendship, the secrets to success, the beauty of the bush and the talented women who live there, and why Pip likes to hire fast walkers. Merry Christmas everyone.  SHOW NOTESEdwina's social media: @edwina_b  + @warrambaWarramba website: www.warramba.com.auPip's social media:  @jumbledonlineJumbled website:  www.jumbledonline.comNeed help with your next media appearance?

Lisa Sthalekar is a former Australian cricket captain who sits very comfortably at the table of trailblazers.Lisa was the first player in women's history to score 1,000 runs and take 100 wickets and she's been inducted into both the Australian and the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame.Lisa is now a high-performance coach and an accomplished and much-loved cricket broadcaster - travelling the globe covering Indian Premier League, World T20, and the Tokyo Olympics.In our chat, along with giving excellent tips on sports psychology and how to be a great sports broadcaster, Lisa talks about being adopted as a baby - she was originally named Laila and had been at an orphanage in Pune, India, for three weeks when her dad, mum and sister arrived… actually looking for a baby boy, but they fell instantly in love with the little baby girl before their eyes.Lisa talks about returning to that orphanage during a trip to India in later year, and also about growing up in Sydney in the 80s and 90s, and for a very long time being the only girl on the boys' cricket team - and not even knowing that there was such thing as a women's comp.SHOW NOTESLisa social media: Twitter: @sthalekar93 Instagram: @lsthalekarWebsite: http://www.lisasthalekar.comNeed help with your next media appearance?

This podcast episode is a love story about Italy.It's also about following your dreams - quitting your top-rating radio gig, and packing up your four kids, with your husband, to move to Bologna - which is exactly what media star Kate Langbroek did.The move partly came from a desire to seize life after almost losing their eldest son Lewis to Leukemia.Now, as you'd expect, Italy was magnificent and wonderful… it was all going along beautifully for Kate and her family! And then COVID-19 hit. Kate captures it all in her new book, Ciao Bella! including a great reminder of what Italians can teach us about living life - and what really matters - especially when the world starts to fall apart.SHOW NOTESKate's social media: @katelangbroekBook Credit: Ciao Bella!

Zara Seidler is the co-founder of The Daily Aus - the wildly successful social-first news service - aimed at equipping young people with the information and context around the big stories that matter.In 2017, as her political advising career was just starting to take off, Zara met Sam Koslowski, and together, the two twenty-somethings decided they'd make a business out of being master explainers.And that business went nuts! And at the start of this year, Zara quit her day job to work in The Daily Aus full time. And it now has more than a quarter of a million followers. Zara talks about the highs and lows of jumping without a safety net (especially when you're risk averse!), her first ever live tv appearance on ABC QandA, interviewing Gladys Berejiklian and why Millennials and Gen Z should be taken seriously.SHOW NOTESFollow The Daily Aus and Zara at @thedailyaus and @zaraseidlerNeed help with your next media appearance?

In my time I've been pretty lucky to interview and produce stories with some incredible people - the Dalai Lama, The Black Eyed Peas etc etc (brag, brag, brag...) but I tell you what, interviewing this week's guest, Alison Bell, had me feeling over-the-top nervous and excited.Alison is the co-creator and star of hit ABC comedy The Letdown which was picked up by Netflix and co-produced for Season 2, bagging a heap of awards along the way.If you haven't seen it, the show centres around Audrey, mother of a 2-month-old, who joins a new-parents support group, which she initially thinks she doesn't need -- but soon realises those kooky parents are exactly who she needs to survive motherhood. The Letdown is hilarious but also explores darker and often taboo topics.We laugh a lot in this chat and cover so much! Such as shooting the pilot with zero budget, the scene she is most proud of, pitching to Netflix and being recognised in LA, and working with the hilarious - and now mega star - Celeste Barber.We also delve into Alison's personal experience of mixing motherhood and comedy writing and how much of the script and those enchanting characters are based on real life. And a big shout out to my own mothers group - who kept me sane, and stuffed with caffeine and cake in that first year and beyond. For more you can head to our website at stephaniehuntmedia.com or follow us on Instagram at @stephaniehuntmedia and Facebook.SHOW NOTESYou can follow Alison and The Letdown on Twitter @Alison_M_Bell@TheLetdownTvNeed help with your next media appearance?

Welcome to Season 2 of And We're Rolling. The thought of finding our voice and speaking in public or on camera can be terrifying. So join Stephanie Hunt (international journalist, producer, news boss and mum) as she chats with a new group of the world's best female broadcasters, foreign correspondents, performers, leaders and athletes about life, and career, but mostly about what scares THEM the most, their secret tips and tricks and how they find the grit to do it anyway.Need help with your next media appearance?

As an anchor, being catapulted into live breaking news is not for the faint hearted. All the plans and rundowns go out the window and it's down to guts, grit and your smarts to survive. But that's also the fun of it. And this week's guest is the best in the business. Martine Dennis is a senior international news anchor, journalist, moderator and supreme legend of global broadcasting.At only 24 she was a BBC correspondent at the United Nations in New York.It was a role that granted Martine a crash course in every conflict in the world. But it also gave her an early insight into how to navigate her way around sources and avoid advances from men in power - in an era well before the MeToo movement.In our chat - which is actually more like a masterclass - I confess that I was both intimidated and in awe of Martine when I first worked with her in the BBC World News London newsroom. We talk about being underestimated, not always fitting in, the pressures women face - from a very early age - and her step-by-step guide to being your best on camera.SHOW NOTESNeed help with your next media appearance?

Amelia Adams is a Senior US Correspondent with Nine Network Australia.  It's a big job any time, but especially in our current media climate. In 2020 three big stories -- the US election, social justice protests and COVID-19 -- converged in what was one of the most challenging and demanding news years in modern history. Amelia was on the ground in the US covering them all.In our chat Amelia talks about being a target at Trump rallies but also on social media  where she's been trolled for simply doing her job as a working mum. We talk about the ridiculous questions she and her husband were asked when it was announced Nine was  sending her to its London bureau - the first mum to do so - something that shouldn't be a big deal, but it was.And how Amelia now feels a deep sense of calm during live breaking news - after a few early mishaps - including an on-air meltdown while covering Prince William's royal tour.SHOW NOTESFollow Amelia Adams on Twitter @AmeliaAdams9.Need help with your next media appearance?

When I asked Zeina Khodr if she was keen to come on this podcast she said, ‘Yes! But we must do it soon. It's quiet here now in Beirut, and the Middle East doesn't stay quiet for long.'  And of course, Zeina was right. So two days later we recorded.When it comes to foreign correspondents, Al Jazeera's Emmy Award-nominated Zeina Khodr is at the top of the list. Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, wherever she is she's a smart operator, a talented storyteller and she values integrity above it all. For Zeina, reporting from war zones is not just her job - it's her life. A responsibility to be the voice for the voiceless, which, she tells me, is also her secret  to overcoming any nerves and a lack of confidence. ‘Make it about something bigger than yourself,' she says.In this episode Zeina talks about calculating risks in war zones and why ego and laziness are a recipe for disaster.  Being with the first convoy of opposition fighters as they entered Tripoli and went on to storm Gaddafi's compound. And that day, surviving the deadly Beirut blast, which killed more than 200 people, while out with her three-year-old son and her mum.  SHOW NOTESFollow Zeina Khodr on Twitter @ZeinakhodrAljaz.Need help with your next media appearance?

Deborah Rodriguez is a hairdresser, a humanitarian and the author of the international bestsellers 'The Little Coffee Shop of Kabul' and the hit sequel. She also wrote the memoir  'The Kabul Beauty School' about her life in Afghanistan where she spent five years teaching and later directing the first modern beauty academy and training salon in the country.Like it is for so many, this is a heartbreaking time for Deborah. The Taliban's swift take over of Kabul and essentially the country -- almost 20 years since they were ousted -- has left many of her staff and their families so desperate to flee. We recorded this interview the day before the Taliban took control of the presidential palace.In this interview we cry, but we also laugh as Deborah speaks - from her home in Mexico - about how this small town girl from Michigan ended up living a life she never imagined, her writing process, losing and re-finding her voice, literally having warlords in her livingroom, and what we can do to try to help the women and children who remain in Afghanistan.SHOW NOTESFollow Deborah at @debb_rod or via her websites:http://www.deborahrodriguez.com/http://www.oasisrescue.com/index.php/how-you-can-helpNeed help with your next media appearance?

I'm lucky to have wise friends and international presenter/journalist Fauziah Ibrahim is certainly one of them. Throughout her media career she's interviewed the Dalai Lama, dictators and terrorists. She's currently the co-host of ABC Weekend Breakfast TV. It's a job she loves and excels at.In our chat, Fauzi says forget the notion you have to be perfect and flawless on camera.

A theory she brings into her everyday life.Fauzi explains how she's turned insults into her superpowers. And why blasting Beyonce and Madonna is a winning way to get you on-camera ready.SHOW NOTESFollow Fauziah on Twitter @fauziah_ibrahimNeed help with your next media appearance?
