"Our heartbeats are the greatest currency we have." This profound insight comes from Tzara Attwater, who turned personal heartbreak into an epic adventure across Australia's vast wilderness. After walking in on her partner of ten years with another woman, Tzara spent years rebuilding herself before making a bold decision during COVID – converting a Toyota Hiace van with just a jigsaw and YouTube tutorials, then circumnavigating the entire Australian continent solo.The journey tested her in ways she never imagined. There was the time she swam blissfully in Northern Territory waters for days before learning they were crocodile-infested. Or the harrowing seven-hour rescue operation after she broke her leg falling into a gorge, with death adder snakes slithering beneath her stretcher before being airlifted to Perth.As a relationship development coach specializing in anxious attachment styles, Tzara's adventure wasn't just geographical – it was emotional. She discovered that true confidence comes from knowing you're complete on your own, making relationships choices based on desire rather than need. Throughout her 30,000-kilometer odyssey, she continued working with clients online, helping them find their voices while she reclaimed her own.What makes Tzara's story extraordinary isn't just her courage but her philosophy on life, shaped by losing her mother at eight years old. This awareness of mortality fuels her approach to both adventure and relationships – being present, setting boundaries, and spending your limited "heartbeats" wisely.Ready for adventure in your relationships or life journey? Tzara's story proves that sometimes the most meaningful growth happens when we drive straight into the unknown.Be sure and follow along with Tzara and get access to her ebooks by visiting www.myconfidencecoach.com.au.Want to be a guest on Journey with Jake?

In this episode, Sam Street interviews Darrell Jacobs, CEO of the Motor Trade Association of South Australia and Northern Territory, about a number of topics relating to MTA's work and training of apprentices. We start our discussion by reviewing how the closure of the TAFE which taught Trade and Panel resulted in MTA stepping up to fill the training gap in South Australia, teaching both at their training facility and travelling to schools to get students involved.

Chuck gets the real story behind one of the wildest chapters in Australian history, the 1942 bombing of Darwin, where more bombs were dropped than on Pearl Harbor, and the government kept it all under wraps. Mark Monaghan spills some jaw-dropping details: how the Tiwi Islanders warned of the attacks before radar even existed, how Australia's first POW was captured, and why this moment mattered way more than people realize. But the past isn't the only focus, we jump into the present too, talking critical minerals, energy, and why Darwin's becoming a serious player in global strategy. From military moves to mining ops, this one connects the dots between history and the high-stakes future of the Northern Territory.Digital Wildcatters brings the energy community together through events, cutting-edge content, and powerful tools.

They may belong to the TikTok generation, but a group of Australian high schoolers is reviving the classic tradition of the student magazine. The teens believe it's more crucial than ever that their voices are heard away from the realm of social media. Student Spotlight is now up to its seventh issue and between student writers, editors and graphic designers, it can count on more than 20 volunteers to fill its pages. It is available online to all the schools of the Greater Darwin region. For these students of the social media era, going “old-school” was very appealing. “Someone has sat down and really put their time and effort into this, and I feel like there's more care, and people will take that more seriously, rather than just ‘oh, an Instagram reel, scroll',” says contributor Nicole. Featuring impactful news, edgy short stories, and sharp opinion pieces, no subject is out of bounds. “This is entirely student-driven. I'm just here as a supervisor, and I think they're showing what students are capable of when we sit back and let them take charge,” says teacher Trilokesh Chanmugam. Student Spotlight was founded by 16-year-old Pak who grew up in Hong Kong, where he says he witnessed violent arrests of young pro-democracy protesters. “I think just seeing those protests and seeing so many young people not being heard really left a long-lasting impact in how I think and how I act,” explains Pak. The students hope their magazine will give young people in Australia's Northern Territory a voice. “The Northern Territory fosters a lot of great young people and a lot of the time they have to work under less resources, but they're very resilient and they're also very good at finding different opportunities, there must be a way to showcase that,” says Pak. “Even if I'm one person, one person still makes a massive difference,” concludes Nicole.

It’s simply not true that every property makes money. In fact, in the last quarter of 2024, 5.2% of sellers sold for less than they paid, and in one segment, a staggering 36.7% sold at a loss. In this episode, we unpack the data from the latest CoreLogic Pain and Gain Report and walk you through which types of properties are proving to be the riskiest, especially for first home buyers. We talk about the dangers of short hold periods, why holding onto a property for longer (ideally around that 10-year mark) gives you a much better chance of riding out market dips, and how certain areas, like Melbourne Inner, Parramatta, and Ryde, are seeing rising rates of loss-making sales. Spoiler alert: units, particularly off-the-plan ones, are a major culprit here. We also get into the psychology of selling; why people are often forced to sell too early due to life changes, fear, or financial pressure, and how that can lead to big losses, especially in oversupplied markets. And yes, we even touch on why buying brand new with government grants might not be as clever as it sounds. It’s a classic case of good marketing, poor outcomes. Our goal is to help you avoid being one of those awful statistics. We’ve seen it too many times, first home buyers who do all the right things, and still end up worse off because they didn’t have access to the right information. So if you’re serious about making smart decisions, this one’s for you.

The results in the latest Closing the Gap report are grim. Only five of the 19 targets are on track, and Indigenous incarceration rates are rising. But is the policy itself part of the problem? Critics like independent senator Lidia Thorpe argue that Closing the Gap hasn’t delivered change and should be scrapped. Meanwhile, the government has announced hundreds of millions in new spending, including major investments in remote communities and initiatives to reduce grocery prices in the Northern Territory. Today, Minister for Indigenous Australians Malarndirri McCarthy on whether Closing the Gap is still working.

Soldiers from the Australian Army have conducted a gun salute in Darwin to mark the 83rd anniversary today of the bombing of the city in 1942. 235 people died when the Northern Territory capital was attacked in two separate raids by Japanese forces, in hopes of stopping the Allies from using it to contest their Timor and Java invasions. - 1942年にノーザン・テリトリーの首都、ダーウィンが空襲を受けてから今日で83周年を迎えたことを踏まえ、オーストラリア陸軍の兵士たちが、ダーウィンで弔いのために礼砲を行いました。日本軍は、彼らのティモールとジャワへの侵攻をダーウィンで阻止しようとする連合国軍を妨害するため、ダーウィンを2度空襲し、235人が死亡しました。

This week, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese told parliament it must face up to the fact only five of the 19 Closing the Gap targets are on track, as he handed down the government's annual implementation plan. Pledging an $842.6m investment in the Northern Territory over the next six years, the prime minister said closing the gap is about acknowledging what’s working and what isn’t. The federal, state and territory governments, along with peak bodies, have committed to improving the lives of Indigenous peoples across 19 key areas including health, education, employment and justice – but more Aboriginal children are being taken from their families, more are ending up in prison, and suicide rates are devastangily high. Independent Senator Lidia Thorpe believes the widening gap is by design – and argues Closing the Gap targets should be scrapped altogether. Today, Senator Thorpe on why she believes the Closing the Gap strategy is a distraction and what real change would look like.

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP Happy New Year! Life In The Peloton is back, and I'm really excited to kick off 2025 with one of the brightest stars in the Ultrarunning world; Lucy Bartholomew. A Melbourne native, Lucy's been competitively trail running since she was 16, when she lined up at a 100km race along the South Coast of Victoria with her old man. Since then, she's gone on to win Ultra Trail Race Australia in 2022, set the FKT on the truly epic 231km Larapinta Trail up in Northern Territory, and competed over in Europe at Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc. As if she wasn't already hardcore enough, in 2024 just a few weeks after finishing UTMB, she jetted off to Nice to tackle IronMan World Champs…just for fun!  Ultrarunners are known for their resilience and determination, and Lucy completely epitomises that. I loved chatting to her about how she trains for 100km+ races, what it takes to make it in the ultrarunning world, some of her wild experiences out on the trail, how her parents - her dad, Ash, in particular - have helped drive her ultrarunning journey, and how she finds the mental strength to push through the tough moments. It was a really inspiring conversation that I think you're going to love. I was super excited to record with Lucy in person back home around my old area. We actually kicked off the pod by heading for a bike ride up Kinglake, before ripping back down for a quick brew. Then, we laced up the runners and headed out for a little 10ker, and chatted along the way. Needless to say, I kept the questions short to save my breath for running next to one of the most experienced ultrarunners in the world. I want to continue to explore even more new Pelotons in 2025, and the Trail Running space feels like the perfect place to start. It's a sport that's fascinated me for a while, having dabbled in a few ultra runs myself, so I wanted to bring you all inside a discipline that may not be so familiar to the cycling fans amongst you but shares a deep sense of challenge, performance, and adventure. I was fascinated to learn more about the psychology of ultrarunning and find out how similar it is to cycling. Lucy's been at the top of her game in the running space for the best part of a decade now, and it's so cool that she's now crossing over into our world and giving cycling a go. I hope you love listening to Lucy as much as I loved chatting with her. She's an all round legend, and might just inspire you to give trail running, or even an ultrarun, a go if you haven't before. We even recorded a cheeky ep of Talking Luft, so keep your ears peeled for that later this week!
