Here's a not-so-fun stat that many of us may relate to: 69 per cent of women are currently stressed, according to a 2022 report by Liptember Foundation. That's just one reason we're excited about today's podcast guest. Mind coach Poppy Delbridge is on a mission to help people ease stress and live their best, most joyful lives. As well as drawing on the likes of manifestation, she's also an expert in tapping – a practice that involves physically tapping on certain areas of the body. You'll hear more about that in this episode, and you can dig even deeper via Poppy's new book ‘Tapping In: Manifest the life you want with the transformative power of tapping'. She even takes our managing editor Alex Davies through a short tapping exercise at the end of their chat.CREDITS: This podcast was hosted by WH managing editor Alex Davies and produced by WH editor-in-chief Lizza Gebilagin with additional sound editing by Jess Campbell.For more from Women's Health Australia, find us on Instagram, visit our website or find the print and digital editions of the magazine.

Before interviewing Chris Hemsworth on the red carpet, making history as the first woman of Asian descent to be crowned Miss Universe Australia, or becoming a beauty ambassador for Swisse, Francesca Hung struggled with her identity. ⁠⁠For a long time, her mental health was affected by not feeling like she truly belonged, like she was in "no man's land" as she didn't look "typically Australian" while also being disconnected from her Asian heritage. It's a feeling many first-gen Aussies will relate to but one that's not often spoken about or the affect it's had on mental health. It's why she's sharing her story so openly. In this episode, Francesca talks about how she made peace with her identity, the impact of exercise (and cold showers) on her wellbeing and why true beauty and wellness comes from within.CREDITS: This podcast was hosted and produced by WH editor-in-chief Lizza Gebilagin with additional sound editing by Jess Campbell.For more from Women's Health Australia, find us on Instagram, visit our website or find the print and digital editions of the magazine.

Explosive and heavy. That's how comedian and podcaster Em Rusciano describes her period. But the thing that annoys her the most about it is that she didn't feel like she had control of it until her mid-30s. Now, she tries to work with her cycle. She knows it isn't something you just “plug up and go” and rather she gives herself permission to do less when it is “explosive and heavy”.In this episode, the Boody ambassador makes the case for talking about our periods more, her experience of diagnosed with ADHD and autism in her 40s, and why she's unlearning the shame around both.CREDITS: This podcast was hosted and produced by WH editor-in-chief Lizza Gebilagin.For more from Women's Health Australia, find us on Instagram, visit our website or find the print and digital editions of the magazine.

As one of the first trainers on Kayla Itsines' Sweat app, and now with a 2.9 million following on Instagram, Kelsey Wells is making sure her message of empowerment reaches as many people as possible. She's doing it via her Redefine Fitness: Strength and Mindfulness program on Sweat as well as a podcast by the same name. “Health is multifaceted. It's emotional, mental, spiritual and physical,” she says. “We should look at our efforts in exercise and nutrition and how they play a role in our overall health and wellbeing. It is not about fad diets and quick fixes. That kind of rhetoric is tired as much as it is untrue. It's time we stop using it.” In this episode, we revisit our chat with Kelsey from last year, on the importance of redefining the term ‘fitness', why ditching the scales was important to her mental health but still allowed her to hit her goals, and how giving up and starting again is an important part of life.CREDITS: This podcast was hosted and produced by WH editor-in-chief Lizza Gebilagin.For more from Women's Health Australia, find us on Instagram, visit our website or find the print and digital editions of the magazine.

Swimming has been Cate Campbell's life since she was a young girl. So what happened when the four-time Olympian took a break from the sport? Well, it's meant that she's had time to speak up about important health issues, like period management and the nerve damage she endured from having a contraceptive implant removed. But having a break also allowed Cate to reignite her passion for swimming with her goal now to compete in her fifth Olympics.In this chat, the Avène skincare ambassador talks about her melanoma diagnosis and how getting her skin checked saved her life (and hopefully this is a reminder to get yours checked too!), she also chats about the impact of taking a break from sport, her ill-fated attempt at falling in love with running, and why her mantra is “be brave”.CREDITS: This podcast was hosted and produced by WH editor-in-chief Lizza Gebilagin.For more from Women's Health Australia, find us on Instagram, visit our website or find the print and digital editions of the magazine.

What that looks like? Well, one thing Laura's trying her best to do is something we could all probably do with a bit more of – easing the self-pressure to do things perfectly all of the time.It's an outlook that extends to her wellbeing approach as much as her work at the helm of KIC, which saw her named a finalist in 2022's Women Leading Tech Awards.

After spending years trying to live up to Hollywood's standards of the perfect body, and even battling a year-long eating disorder when she was 17, Hilary Duff decided to shift her focus to getting strong.She admits in the January issue of Women's Health Australia: “Because of my career path, I can't help but be like, ‘I am on camera and actresses are skinny. It was horrifying.”But now, Hilary says she's proud of her body. “[I'm] appreciating my health, doing activities that make me feel strong instead of just bettering the outside of my body. Spending time with people that make me feel good and share similar views on health and body positivity and getting enough sleep and balance in my diet.”One person who has helped her do exactly that is her personal trainer Dominic Leeder. In this episode, Leeder shares – in detail – how he helped Hilary Duff get into the best shape of her life and maintain it, so that you can too.CREDITS: This podcast was hosted and produced by WH editor-in-chief Lizza Gebilagin with additional sound editing by Abby Williams.For more from Women's Health Australia, find us on Instagram, visit our website or find the print and digital editions of the magazine.

After the last few years of dealing with COVID and lockdowns and the climate crisis and political instability and rising interest rates, it's so easy to lose hope.But a study from Harvard University of nearly 13,000 people in their 60s shows that hope might be exactly what we need. The researchers discovered that those who had more hope throughout their lives had better physical health, fewer chronic health problems, less depression and less anxiety, and overall, a longer life.That's why on today's episode, we've brought meditation teacher Caitlin Cady back on the show to help us rediscover that hope and talk about her new book, aptly titled, The Hope Dealer (Affirm Press, $35). In this chat, we cover topics like failure, burn-out and disappointments, and Caitlin shares how a little bit of hope or inspiration can be the fuel to help you make much-needed changes.CREDITS: This podcast was hosted and produced by WH editor-in-chief Lizza Gebilagin with additional sound editing by Abby Williams.For more from Women's Health Australia, find us on Instagram, visit our website or find the print and digital editions of the magazine.

A new issue of Women's Health hit the stands on Monday featuring the incredible Anna Heinrich in Seafolly, so we thought it would be a good time to revisit the chat we had with her earlier this year where she talks about how putting yourself through immense physical challenges can help you break out of your comfort zone. I hope you enjoy it.---For most of her life, Anna Heinrich has suffered from imposter syndrome. You wouldn't know it from looking at her life from the outside, since she first entered the public sphere almost 10 years ago on the very first season of The Bachelor, where she met her now husband Tim Robards, with whom she shares a daughter, Elle, who is now almost 18 months old. You also wouldn't realise it either if you saw clips and photos of her running while on fire and generally beasting it through the challenges in this season of SAS. But the former criminal lawyer, who recently gave up her career to become a full-time entrepreneur and work on her supplement brand Intu Wellness, says imposter syndrome has plagued her for as long as she can remember. In this episode, she chats about how challenging herself physically and mentally, helped her to finally overcome it. She also talks about the importance of sleep, exercise and nutrition in her wellness routine, and how surrounding herself by people who lift her up, has led to her living a life beyond what she originally thought was possible.CREDITS: This podcast was hosted and produced by WH editor-in-chief Lizza Gebilagin.For more from Women's Health Australia, find us on Instagram, visit our website or find the print and digital editions of the magazine.

Dr Isaac Golden co-founded the Health Australia Party in July 2015 with 5 colleagues.

Rewind your mind back to 2020. No, not the first optimistic month but the moment we all realised the pandemic had taken hold of the world and our lives had changed forever in ways we were yet to know. It was during that time, quarantined in South Africa and far away from her family and friends in the UK, that actor Ella Balinska spent her days in an apocalyptic world overrun by zombies that were the result of a pandemic.Cue: cortisol explosion.At least that's how I responded while I was watching Ella in the new Netflix series Resident Evil, streaming now.As I watched her running and fighting from pandemic-originated monsters in the first few episodes, I wondered, how did she get fit for the role and how did she stay mentally fit while going through the very real anxiety of how COVID was affecting our world?In this episode, I chat with the UK native, now residing in LA, about her love of spin and netball, how she finally started meditating and why she's happy to be known for her action roles.CREDITS: This podcast was hosted and produced by WH editor-in-chief Lizza Gebilagin, with additional sound editing by Abby Williams.For more from Women's Health Australia, find us on Instagram, visit our website or find the print and digital editions of the magazine.

Most of us came to know Brooke Blurton from The Bachelorette, when she made headlines around the world as the first Indigenous and openly bisexual woman to take the lead in the franchise's history. But as any one of Brooke's 200,000 followers will know, reality TV is merely a footnote in her life story. Growing up in the country town of Carnarvon on Kuwinywardu land, Brooke's childhood was one punctuated by tragedy. After losing her mum and nan at the age of 11, Brooke was forced to grow up quickly, adopting the role of carer for her younger siblings.Brooke's story is one that speaks to the power of resilience. After moving to Perth, she pursued opportunities and forged new friendships out on the footy field. And in the years since we've come to know Brooke through our TV screens, she's become an advocate for mental health and continued to lead by example, proving that past experiences don't have to define us. In this episode, she chats with Women's Health writer Jess Campbell about her struggles with mental health, how she came to adopt such a strong attitude in the face of adversity, the power of sport to inspire change, and how her approach to health and fitness has matured over the years.CREDITS:This podcast was hosted by WH digital writer Jess Campbell and produced by WH editor-in-chief Lizza Gebilagin.For more from Women's Health Australia, find us on Instagram @womenshealthaus, womenshealth.com.au or find the print and digital editions of the magazine.

There are only a handful of trainers who can claim a following like Kelsey Wells. You may even be one of her 2.4 million followers on Instagram. Well this year, Kelsey launched a program on the Sweat app called Redefine Fitness: Strength and Mindfulness. Now I assumed that the program was based on the premise that strength training could be a form of moving meditation, like yoga, because that's been my own experience of it. But when I spoke to Kelsey while she was in Sydney recently, her explanation took our conversation to a very different place.In this episode, we talk about the importance of redefining the term ‘fitness', why ditching the scales was important to her mental health but still allowed her to hit her goals, and how giving up and starting again is an important part of life.If you or someone you know needs support for an eating disorder or body image issues, contact the Butterfly Foundation on 1800 33 4673 or butterfly.org.au.If you or someone you know needs support for postnatal depression, visit PANDA.

Rachael Finch has something personal she'd like to share. If you're one of her 298K followers on Instagram, you'll know it's been more than a year since the Kissed Earth co-founder and model had her explant surgery, a procedure to remove breast implants. But what Rachael hasn't spoken openly about in depth before is that removing her implants was the final piece in healing her relationship with her body. In this chat, Rachael reflects on the “rollercoaster journey” of her body image issues, which began when she was 15 and led to disordered eating where she was over-exercising and under-eating. She explains how she's internalised new beliefs about herself and learnt how to nourish rather than deprive or punish her body. This is why the mum of two is sharing her story now: she wants to help reduce the stigma of eating disorders and encourage others to seek help. If you or someone you know needs support for an eating disorder or body image issues, contact the Butterfly Foundation on 1800 33 4673 or butterfly.org.au.CREDITS:This podcast was hosted and produced by WH editor-in-chief Lizza Gebilagin with additional sound editing by Abby Williams.For more from Women's Health Australia, find us on Instagram, visit our website or find the print and digital editions of the magazine.

And do it quickly.Here, she talks about her journey from growing up in a family that didn't encourage exercise to then winning national comps and having to unlearn some of the unhealthiest diet advice which she was taught in bodybuilding, and how she's manifested the life she has now, where she's sharing all she's learnt about fitness, nutrition and mindset with people around the world.
