Anthony Milbourne traveled all the way from Australia to sit down with Ian Bick and share his journey into becoming a correctional officer inside an Australian youth prison. In this episode, Anthony breaks down how his life experiences led him to the job, what daily life was really like inside the facility, and the key differences between the Australian and American prison systems — from food, routine, and commissary to discipline and inmate culture. He also opens up about the violent attack he suffered at the hands of inmates, an incident that ultimately pushed him to walk away from the career. _____________________________________________ #YouthPrison #PrisonOfficer #AustralianPrison #PrisonLife #BehindBars #TrueCrimePodcast #InmateStories #lockedinwithianbick _____________________________________________ Connect with Anthony Milbourne: LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/anthony-milbourne-806b66333 Buy his book: https://www.amazon.com/Psych-Warden-Officers-psychological-account/dp/B0B2TTDCKL _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Violent Prison Attack That Changed Everything 00:25 Meet Anthony Milbourne & What This Episode Covers 00:53 Childhood, Family Life & Early Trauma 03:54 Growing Up in Australia: School & Early Struggles 11:10 Dreams, Ambitions & Early Career Goals 17:40 Art School, Adulthood & Finding Direction 24:42 Career Shift: Entering Law Enforcement 29:04 The Incident That Changed My Life Forever 33:31 Trauma, Recovery & Moving Into Juvenile Corrections 39:42 First Days Working Inside a Youth Prison 45:01 Inside an Australian Youth Detention Center 54:43 Daily Life in Youth Prison: Routine & Structure 01:01:36 Commissary, Prison Food & Inmate Ingenuity 01:07:12 Rehabilitation Programs & Mental Health Inside 01:10:01 Violence, Staff Safety & Gang Attacks 01:21:37 After the Assault: Media, Court & Fallout 01:32:46 Recovery, Career Changes & Personal Loss 01:36:13 Life as a Youth Prison Officer: Daily Realities 01:41:00 Officer Culture, Burnout & Brotherhood 01:44:01 System Failures, Reflections & Writing a Book 01:45:20 Final Thoughts & Lessons Learned Learn more about your ad choices.

The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that over 160 million children and teenagers ages 5 to 19 are now overweight or obese A new study from the University of Gothenburg collected data from nearly one million Swedish men and found that obese teenagers are more likely to experience severe infections later in life Obesity is a chronic medical condition characterized by excess body fat that impairs health and leads to symptoms such as fatigue, shortness of breath, joint pain, and metabolic issues that tend to worsen over time Body mass index (BMI) has traditionally been the standard for assessing weight and health, but it has come under scrutiny because it frequently misclassifies risk You can tackle obesity at its root by eliminating metabolic health hazards like seed oils and ultraprocessed foods and instead, choosing healthy carbs and walking more

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I discuss why play is a powerful yet often overlooked tool for shaping the brain across the entire lifespan, not just during childhood. I explain how play engages specific brain circuits and neurochemicals, allowing us to explore different roles and learn in low-stakes environments uniquely suited to learning. I also describe why adults benefit from deliberately reintroducing play and which forms of play are most effective for expanding cognitive flexibility and creative thinking.

Hello and welcome to The Shift - the podcast that aims to tell the no-holds barred truth about being a woman post-40. Created and hosted by me, journalist and author, Sam Baker. Have I got a treat for you today. Because my guest this week is Gretchen Rubin, one of the most influential writers on habits, happiness and human nature.  Gretchen is the author of the NYT bestsellers The Happiness Project and Better Than Before, she's sold millions of copies worldwide in more than 35 languages and every week hundreds of thousands tune into her award winning podcast Happier with Gretchen Rubin for an injection of, well, a common sense guide to contentment.  The Happiness Project was a phenomenon. It spent two years on the American bestseller lists and spawned “happiness” groups all over the country.  It's fair to say her pursuit of happiness changed her life. Now she's distilled all that down into a handy guide packed with simple truths for our increasingly complex lives, called Secrets of Adulthood. You know how we're always saying, I wish I could bottle that. Well Gretchen has booked it! Given the whole hell in a handcart vibe of the past year I couldn't think of anyone better to give us a bit of a pep talk for 2026. * You can buy all the books mentioned in this podcast at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Shift bookshop on Bookshop.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, including The Secrets of Adulthood and The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin as well as the book that inspired this podcast, The Shift: how I lost and found myself after 40 - and you can too, by me. * If you enjoyed this episode and you fancy buying me a coffee, pop over to my page on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠buymeacoffee.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. • And if you'd like to support the work that goes into making this podcast and get a weekly newsletter plus loads more content including exclusive transcripts of the podcast, why not join The Shift community, come and have a look around at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.theshiftwithsambaker.substack.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

Most parents overprotect for the best of reasons. The world feels more dangerous than ever. We want our children to be happy, confident, unhurt. So we step in early. We smooth the road. We solve the problems. We shield them from disappointment, discomfort, and failure but it comes at a psychological cost. All to discuss with Steph Regan, Clinical Psychotherapist, and host of the Tough Love Podcast.

What's the most realistic way a “dirty cop” plan would hold up in court, and why do TV writers get away with it?A movie recap turns into a long detour through The Walking Dead, Grey's Anatomy, and what it means to be permanently tied to one iconic role. From there it slides into Jennifer Lopez nostalgia, arguing over which of her movies were actually good, and realizing her singing voice is more distinctive than you remembered. Then the trip stories kick in. A birthday weekend, a Kroger Starbucks, and an all-time awkward public interaction that starts with, “Do you girls like elevators?” and somehow gets worse. The fight we were having before it happened, the immediate emotional whiplash after, and why we couldn't look away. Medieval Times gets reviewed like a consumer report. The horses and hawk are cool, the tournament runs long, and the sugar crash is real. Waffle House is loud enough to qualify as an assault, with plate slams, silverware buckets, and a screaming family turning breakfast into sensory warfare.There's also a return to the “K-pop boyfriend” conversation, what people mean when they say it, and why it can feel weird. That leads into a surprisingly earnest sidebar on poly relationships, “my wife's boyfriend” dynamics, and what that kind of arrangement does to people over time.Plus: caterpillars, butterflies, pollination, bad Italian food, a chaotic bill, and the kind of small annoyances that become the whole story.

In this episode, we explore why disappointment hits so deeply and what it's really connected to beneath the surface.

Today we're exploring unschooling—not just as an educational choice, but as a deeply personal and often healing journey for parents themselves. My guest is Esther Jones, an unschooling mother of three, the founder of The Unschool Space podcast, and the author of The Parent's Handbook to Unschooling Yourself. Esther was led into unschooling by her own children, who challenged her to unravel long-held beliefs about parenting, learning, and neurodiversity. Esther and I talk about what it really takes to step away from conventional expectations and learn to trust children's natural learning processes. We also explore the emotional work parents often need to do along the way, the importance of self-care and community support, and how mindfulness and self-compassion can become essential tools as families build lives beyond traditional schooling—ones where both kids and parents can truly thrive. About Esther Jones Esther Jones is an unschooling mother of three, founder of the The Unschool Space podcast and author of the recently published The Parent's Handbook to Unschooling Yourself.Esther was led into unschooling by her children, who have helped her unravel years of conditioned beliefs around parenting, children, learning and neurodiversity. Today, she supports other parents in transforming their mindset and building a life beyond traditional schooling in which their children and themselves can thrive, using mindfulness and self-compassion as the foundational tools for change. Things you'll learn from this episode   How unschooling requires parents to unlearn old beliefs and embrace the discomfort that signals growth Why trusting children to lead their own learning allows them to explore in organic, joyful ways How self-care and community support strengthen a parent's ability to show up for their child in an unschooling environment Why each child's needs may look different from their parent's—and how modeling our own passions supports their learning How online resources can expand support networks and deepen confidence for unschooling families Why the unschooling journey often becomes a healing process for parents as much as a learning journey for kids Resources mentioned Esther Jones' website The Parent's Handbook to Unschooling Yourself by Esther Jones The Unschool Space Podcast Esther Jones on Instagram Esther Jones on Substack A Conversation with Dr. Naomi Fisher on Self-Directed Learning (Tilt Parenting podcast) Blake Boles and His Book, Why Are You Still Sending Your Child to School?

Hey, Comedy Lovers! ✤ Welcome to "Ian Lara" ⭐ All advice is bad advice, please do adult things and put this podcast on in the background.

Join me in the meadow today as I deinfluence you on things from my 20s. The internet is such a world of comparison, keeping up with the jones's, and can feel like a very curated highlight reel. Today I'm sharing the ways adulthood hasn't quite gone as expected from home ownership, to friendship breakups, not knowing what I'm doing with my life and whatever we're all supposed to be doing for retirement! I'm covering it all. So brew yourself a cup of tea and let's cozy on up to keep it real.

What goes through your mind in the second before you die, and is that moment worse than the pain itself? Nuclear weapons and energy warfare. The psychology of fear, and why dying instantly might be preferable to surviving what comes after. Autoerotic asphyxiation, public shame, and how families rewrite uncomfortable truths. How cultural perception flips overnight, from fear to obsession. K-pop, Netflix, and the line between admiration and fetishization. Scorpions, snake venom, and the idea that sometimes survival isn't the point. Corporate media, the collapse of local radio, Covid guilt, money stress, aging, and the low-grade anxiety underneath everyday life.

Send a textKeywordsparenting, adult children, transition to adulthood, parent-child dynamics, emotional intelligence, self-care, clarity, perspective, expectations, personal growthSummaryIn this episode of the ABCs of Parenting Adult Children podcast, host James Moffitt and guest Lindy Van Heerden discuss the complexities of parenting adult children, the transition to adulthood, and the importance of understanding both perspectives in parent-child dynamics.

Send us a textA quiet moment over coffee can redraw a life. That's where our guest, Matt Ross, realized he wasn't just surviving anymore—he was ready to build a plan for growth. We trace how that spark became Grow or Fold, a candid guide to navigating midlife, protecting your family, and designing a future that feels both possible and personal.Matt shares the arc of his career—from building radio stations to leading School of Rock to launching One River School—alongside his most defining role: father to a nonverbal autistic son. The conversation gets real about crisis points, including a psychiatric breakdown at 16 and the hard decisions that led to residential care. We break down the “autism tsunami,” from long housing waitlists to the urgent need for early, strategic planning. Expect clear, actionable insights on special needs trusts, guardianship pathways, and how to work with the right legal and service teams so your child is supported for the long haul.We also unpack a practical playbook for personal reinvention. Matt's five-part progression—self-awareness, responsibility, the pain of change, the cost of not changing, and disciplined action—pairs with his MVP: My Vision Plan of ten goals for the next ten years. It's a humane system that fits busy lives, helping you align daily habits with a future you actually want. Along the way, we talk playfulness, creativity, and the science-backed power of generativity: giving to others as a path to meaning, resilience, and longer life.If you're juggling caregiving, career, and your own unmet goals, this episode offers clarity, courage, and a framework you can start today.

Have you ever felt like you're somehow behind in life—like everyone else got the memo except you? In this episode, we unpack fascinating new brain science that completely reframes how we understand adolescence and adulthood. We explore research showing that adolescence doesn't actually end in the late teens or early twenties, but can extend all the way into our early thirties. Through this lens, the uncertainty, exploration, and emotional ups and downs so many of us experience aren't signs of failure—they're signs of healthy brain development happening exactly as it's designed to.We talk about what's really going on inside the brain during these formative years, why your experiences now are shaping the grounded, stable version of you that's emerging, and how societal expectations can create unnecessary pressure along the way. What if not having it all figured out is actually part of the process? And what if your brain is still pruning, refining, and preparing you for the next phase of life on purpose? Join us for a reassuring, science-backed conversation that invites us to embrace the journey with a little more compassion, patience, and trust in our own timing.Research / Articles Referenced: Topological turning points across the human lifespan - https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-025-65974-8Adolescence lasts into 30s - new study shows four pivotal ages for your brain - https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cgl6klez226o

What does it mean to be an independent adult?More young adults live with their parents than in the past, and are also delaying the traditional markers of independent adulthood like marriage and childbirth. Roughly nine-in-ten parents say it's extremely or very important to them that their children be financially independent when they are adults, but are our cultural notions of financial independence changing? And are today's young adults prepared to handle the emotional challenges of adult life? To find out, Brittany is joined by Nancy Hill, Professor of Education and Developmental Psychologist at Harvard University, and Kathryn Jezer-Morton, writer for New York Magazine and The Cut.(0:00) What does it mean to be an adult?(4:46) Is Gen-Z "failing to launch" into adulthood?(10:32) The myths of unpaid duesSupport Public Media.
