Podcasts about australian women

Big pod today, we start by discussing the great win by the Australian Women in the International Crown in South Korea. Sensational! A wonderful performance.Speaking of fantastic womens golf, Nick was excited to see Yani Tseng back in the winners circle, and what a finish it was. It's been a long time, great to see her back.Mark has a history of, from time to time, teeing off on local councils. And today he has a bee in his bonnet about a local council and what they have done to a suburban Melbourne golf course.Then, we talk yips. Risky territory we realise that. But we chat about the yips, how they occur, how to fix them, and hear some hilarious stories on the way. Mark talks about being a tad yippy at one point and how he fixed it, Nick explains why he moved to putting right-handed and what he had to learn to do, and Mark tells us what he calls 'the greatest yipping story ever'. A bold claim, but to be fair, it's a pretty funny story. Mark raises Peter 'Pom' O'Malley and his flirtation with a bit of yip activity, and wants to confirm whether his memory is correct so he texts Shags, Poms caddy, to ask him for clarification.A fantastic Touch of Class for BMW today featuring Michael Brennan, who won his first PGA tour event at the weekend, however the Touch of Class is not about his performance as such, but something else related.After the turn we launch a massive opportunity for one wolfpacker.

This week Nicola and Di chat with the one and only Maggie Beer AO, Australia’s culinary queen. Maggie is a beloved cook, restaurateur, author and food icon. She’s spent a lifetime stirring up joy, creativity and a love of good food across the country. Maggie has inspired generations through her best selling cookbooks, TV shows, and of course her delicious products. To top it all off, in 2010 Maggie was awarded Senior Australian of the year for her impact on Aussie food and local produce. Now at 80, Maggie is gracing the cover of the Australian Women’s Weekly and is truly a role model for so many people. In this episode we chat to Maggie about her love of food and how she’s cooked her whole life because she came from a family where good food and music were the two things that were incredibly important and the biggest sources of joy. She shares how she learnt by osmosis from her parents the beauty of simple, nutritious food and because she grew up around it, she’s always intuitively known how to put flavours together. Maggie also tells us about the fall that changed her life. She shares the story of how it happened, the time she had to spend in hospital, her extensive rehabilitation and what it was like to experience the quietest time in her life, being forced to rest and rely on the support of her husband Colin, her family, friends and community. Maggie describes how despite the physical pain, it was the least stressful time in her life and really transformed the way she sees the world. We ask Maggie about her secrets for a long, happy marriage and she shares what she loves about her husband Colin, who she’s been married to for 55 years and counting. We also talk to Maggie about becoming Senior Australian of The Year and the incredible foundation that she’s created where she is helping to transform the kitchens and food across aged care centres in Australia. It was absolutely inspiring to chat to Maggie - a woman who is so vibrant at 80 and pursues life with so much passion and purpose that you can’t help but feel uplifted and energised talking to her.

A new report is calling for a national database on miscarriage to address ongoing invisibility around miscarriage and early pregnancy loss in Australia, particularly for First Nations women and in rural and regional communities.

On Summer Grandstand on ABC Sport, Zane Bojack caught up with the Australian Women's Cricket team Coach Shelley Nitschke as they look to defend their ODI World Cup in India.

Interview by Kris PetersSince the Australian Women in Music Awards (AWMA) inception in 2018 almost 2000 individuals have been recognised with a nomination, with 1946 nominations from 2018 to 2024. Designed to provide an outlet to celebrate and reward women in the Australian music industry, AWMA has become a vital platform for recognising the vast contributions of First Nations and culturally diverse artists, musicians, technicians, photographers, journalists, leaders, artists with a disability and music practitioners from every corner of the sector.To be held on October 9 at Fortitude Music Hall in Brisbane, this year's ceremony features a spectacular line-up, including KATIE MILLER HEIDKE, MISSY HIGGINS, BABYSHAKES DILLON, and recently appointed AWM Chair SARAH MCLEOD.Founding Executive Producer and Program Director Vicki Gordon explains: "Our inaugural AWMA in 2018 paved the way for some of the most important change the industry has ever seen, igniting collaboration and support nationally for female and gender-diverse artists and music practitioners, First Nations and Multicultural artists and artists living in remote and regional areas. As we head into our sixth year, we are proud of the change and the shift AWMA has enabled - but there is so much more work to be done.”With the AWMA's drawing near, HEAVY sat down with Vicki to discuss the Awards, covering everything from the past, present and future of this wonderful initiative."Things are pretty intense at the moment," she smiled when we asked how preparations were going. "We're just under four weeks out from delivering the conference and the awards ceremony, and there are a lot of moving parts. It's become massive; a really, really big event. There's a lot going on with organising the artists and the programming for the awards ceremony. (Things like) the finalists, the conference programme, the speakers and the facilitators."We ask Vicki to go into more detail about the AMWAs, including what motivated her to establish the awards in 2018."I've worked in the music industry for a long time," she measured. "I've been a label manager, an artist manager. I've had the extraordinary opportunities to work with First Nations artists for the last three decades, right across this entire country, and I've been a video producer. I've worked in lots of areas, and in my time in the industry, it was always so obvious to me that women were really absent, particularly in a lot of the technical and production areas. I have been observing that for a long, long time. In the early 90s I established the Australian Women's Rock Institute, and that was way before Australian Women in Music Awards. I set that up primarily to address the status of women in the music industry, which was pretty appalling at that time."In the full interview, Vicki outlined the extensive preparations for the event, involving a large team focused on artist programming and conference logistics. As a not-for-profit charity, the event relies heavily on ongoing fundraising efforts and collaboration between a number of sectors, which she explained in greater detail.Vicki also mentioned her proactive approach to planning for the 2026 awards, highlighting the cyclical nature of organising such events. She shared her long-standing commitment to addressing the underrepresentation of women in technical and production roles within the music industry, which led her to establish the Australian Women's Rock Institute and the awards themselves.The conversation also touched on the importance of gender equality in the music sector, with Vicki emphasising the need for continued advocacy and research. She introduced the Women in Tech forum, featuring Brittany Long as a speaker, and addressed concerns about inclusivity for male attendees, affirming that their participation is welcome. The inclusion of heavy metal and associated genres in AWMA was discussed as well as Vicki's vision for the future of the awards. The discussion included details about ticketing for the awards and conference, as well as highlights of the event, such as the unique black carpet event and the awards ceremony featuring notable performers and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare has produced a snap shot of Women's health across the life course. While rates of cancer have gone down for women over the last 25 years, younger women continue to experience higher rates of depression and other mental health conditions. - انستیتوت صحی و رفاه آسترالیا (AIHW) تصویری کلی از وضعیت صحی زنان در طول زندگی‌شان منتشر کرده است. این گزارش نشان می‌دهد که هرچند در ۲۵ سال گذشته میزان ابتلا به سرطان در میان زنان کاهش یافته، اما زنان جوان همچنان با نرخ بالاتری از افسردگی و دیگر مشکلات صحی روانی روبه‌رو هستند.

The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare reports that women are living longer and cancer rates have fallen over the past 25 years. However, younger women are showing higher prevalence of depression and other mental health conditions.

The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare has produced a snap shot of Women's health across the life course. While rates of cancer have gone down for women over the last 25 years, younger women continue to experience higher rates of depression and other mental health conditions. - آسٹریلین انسٹی ٹیوٹ آف ہیلتھ اینڈ ویلفیئر نے خواتین کی صحت کا زندگی کے مختلف مراحل کے دوران ایک جائزہ پیش کیا ہے ۔ جبکہ گزشتہ 25 سالوں میں خواتین میں کینسر کی شرح کم ہوئی ہے، چھوٹی عمر کی خواتین اب بھی ڈپریشن اور دیگر ذہنی صحت کے مسائل کی زیادہ شرح کا سامنا کر رہی ہیں۔

This edition looks at the findings of report from The George Institute for Global Health in partnership with the Liptember Foundation, Australia’s leading organisation dedicated to advancing women’s mental health. The study, Beyond the Surface 2024, reveals that rates of poor mental health among Australian women remain alarmingly high. More than half report symptoms of depression, and nearly as many struggle with anxiety. For younger women, pressures around body image have climbed sharply, while Indigenous women are experiencing disproportionately high levels of PTSD. These findings highlight not only the personal toll of poor mental health, but also the systemic barriers that prevent many women from getting the care they need — whether that’s the cost of treatment, stigma, or a healthcare system that isn’t always designed with women in mind. To help us unpack this, Graham Wilson talks with Professor Bronwyn Graham, lead researcher and mental health expert at The George Institute for Global Health where she is Director of the Centre for Sex and Gender Equity in Health and Medicine, and a Professor in the School of Psychology at UNSW Sydney.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In another player interview I was joined by Ladies European Tour pro and the very talented Moa Folke who called in from back home in Tranås, Sweden before flying out to South Korea for Aramco Series Korea then the European swing in the summer. Tranås is also where Kajsa Arwefjäll was originally brought up.  A representative of Landeryds Golfklubb, Moa would go to Murray State University in Kentucky where she would be a 4x Ohio Valley Conference 1st team selection as part of Murray State Racers and was named Ohio Valley Conference Player of the Year for 2017 whilst also competing at NCAA Championships twice.  Moa would turn pro in 2018 and would win on Swedish Golf Tour in 2019 at Tegelberga Open defeating Linn Grant & Emma Svensson by a whopping 6 shots. At the end of 2021.   Moa would gain her LET Card at Final Q School for the 2022 season and at Dromoland Castle for KPMG Women's Irish Open Moa would be the 36 hole leader after shooting at -10 62 on Friday. In 2023 in the Sunshine Ladies Tour Folke would win Dimension Data Ladies Pro-Am at -8 by 3 shots to Annelise Caudal, that would set up for a good run on LET with 2 runner ups at Joburg Ladies Open and Lacoste Ladies Open de France as well as T9th at KPMG Women's Irish Open. In 2024 by Moa"s own admission was worse as she admitted trying to force things after a good 2023 ultimately leading to finishing 38th on LET Order of Merit. In 2025 it's been a solid start for Moa as she would post a respectable T14th at PIF Saudi Ladies Intl in a high quality field, was in contention at Australian Women's Classic before unfortunately a final round 77 propelled her to T27th then T5th at Ford NSW Open in Woollongong. She currently sits in 21st on LET Order of Merit standings and with a big European run coming up hopefully we will see Moa challenging more often. Great player even better person. Lovely and down to earth.    Download via Podbean, Apple & Spotify and be sure to like and subscribe. Thanks

It wasn’t uncommon, in the 19th century, for women to be given the diagnosis of ‘hysteria’ and admitted to mental health asylums if they didn’t do what their husband said, or, if they swore, or had sex outside of marriage. But did you know that women are still being involuntarily sectioned in Australia? Today, investigative reporter Aisha Dow on what has led many women to end up in this terrifying situation, against their will. And the consequences of being misbelieved, and, often, misdiagnosed.Subscribe to The Age & SMH: https://subscribe.smh.com.au/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week Nicola and Di chat with the multi award-winning journalist and editor, Robyn Foyster. Robyn has had an extraordinary career in media for the past 38 years, including being the Publisher and Editor of Australia’s three biggest flagship magazines - The Australian Women’s Weekly, Woman’s Day and New Idea. In 2007, Robyn was voted Editor of the Year, and in 2015 she was voted as one of the 30 most powerful women in media at the B&T Women in Media Awards. She’s also worked as a TV producer on hugely popular shows in the UK, LA and Australia, and now she’s turned her attention to the world of tech and AI and is the founder of Women Love Tech, The Carousel and Game Changers. In this conversation we get to hear some incredible stories from Robyn’s career - including a life-changing trip to the Sahara desert, as well as the time she snuck back-stage at the Oscars and bumped into Harrison Ford, and how it felt to be the first person to put the Spice Girls on TV when she was working in London. Robyn shares what it was like to be the Editor-in-Chief of the iconic Australian Women’s Weekly, and the responsibility she felt to the history of that magazine and its loyal readers. We also have a great chat about tech, the reason Robyn loves it as a new and exciting way to tell stories and how AI is the second revolution. Robyn gives us some great tips for how we can approach AI and that it’s never too late to learn!

As the episodes keep coming I was joined by Ladies European Tour caddy and one of my favourite people in the world Jordan Chatt as he phoned in last week from Coffs Harbour to give us an overview of the week, course conditions at the time as well as the aftermath of Alfred Cyclone and it's effects. Jordan started caddying in 2018 starting as a 16 year old lad caddying for in his own words 'Rich Americans' and developed a love for caddying and helping players reach their potential afterwards. Jordan would alongside Annabell Fuller qualify for AIG Women's Open at St Andrews last year in what would be his first major and the most special one as it sadly was one of the last times his late mother would see him on the course. As of this year Jordan started the first few events in Morocco, Saudi & Taiwan with experienced winner Perrine Delacour learning different things along the way before bagging with Megan Dennis for last weeks Australian Women's Classic where they unfortunately missed the cut. Hopefully will see more of Jordan on tour this year!  In a short space of time Jordy has developed into a good friend and it's great to see him out there doing well even with the dodgy accent ha ha!

Kaarle McCulloch is a former Olympic Track Sprint Cyclist with a 15-year career at the top of her sport including Olympic Bronze and 4 World Championships. Retired in 2021, Kaarle went on to coach the British Women's Sprint Team from 2022-2023 with great success and recently returned to Australia in late 2023 to fulfil the same role as Australian Women's Sprint coach and QAS coach. Kaarle has a degree in Health and Physical Education and is a former level 1 ASCA coach. David Watts has been preparing athletes for competitive success for well over 10 years. Beginning his career at the QAS between 2011-2016, David has since spent time at the Geelong Football Club as a rehabilitation coach and also at the Melbourne Demons as the head of strength and power. More recently he has returned to the QAS and is currently working with track and field, cycling and beach volleyball athletes. David is accredited with the ASCA as a Master L3 Coach and this will be his fourth time presenting at the ASCA international conference QUOTES “I am from a family of teachers and I believe really strongly that coaching is teaching and teaching is coaching. So a lot of my coaching philosophy centres around pedagogical practices and trying to create learning environments for athletes” “For track cycling, I feel very strongly that its foundation is in strength. So gym forms the first and probably the most important part of becoming fast and I work off a sort of a triangle model where strength is at the bottom. To be powerful, you need to be strong. And then to be fast, you need to be powerful.” “I don't like to call it taper because I think taper has some connotations around it and athletes think that they're going to feel good and that everything's going to go amazing but it never ever happens that way. And so, unload for me is all in its title. It's about taking out work as we get closer to the event.” “I'd say 90 % of time the gym and bike loading is aligned. So if we've got a de-load week or a low week, it's low in the gym as well.” “So in the team sprint cycling, we've got three types of acceleration, we've got low range, so from zero, we've got mid-range which is our high power and we've got, you know, high range acceleration, which is our speed. So that's how the week looks. Work high torque, high strength in the start of the week. We work high power midweek, and then we work that sort of back end speed at the end of the week. And that doesn't really shift through all of the periodized phases. What shifts is the specificity of it.” “We have a monthly catch up with my group and every month they have to present something back on what they've learned through the month and that gives them accountability and ownership over what they're doing.” SHOWNOTES 1) Kaarle and David's backgrounds as athletes and coaches 2) What type of collaboration is needed when developing athletes and Kaarle's philosophy on sprint cycling performance 3) Benchmarking events in sprint cycling and periodization approaches from the macro- to the micro-cycle 4) What base building, general prep, specific prep and unload phases can look like for athletes in sprint cycling 5) Different weekly structures and adapting the structure around different athletes and their experience and fiber typology 6) Physical benchmarks for athletes in sprint cycling and 220kg full squats 7) Pedagogical approaches to developing athletes and session planning considerations and creating conditions for athletes to both fail and play 8) One legged box jumps and the power of vulnerability PEOPLE MENTIONED Anna Meares Matthew Denny Brene Brown
