In this powerful RU OK? Day episode, singer-songwriter Lynda Manwaring joins Dr. Jo Braid for an intimate conversation about using music as a pathway to mental health healing and authentic connection. Lynda shares her personal journey from bottling up emotions to embracing vulnerability, including how the loss of her closest friend to mental health challenges inspired her to speak openly about these experiences through her songwriting. The conversation explores how music bypasses our mental filters to access genuine emotion, why creativity flows directly from the heart without ego, and how sharing our authentic stories through any medium creates space for others to open up about their own struggles. Lynda offers practical wisdom on daily self-care practices, the importance of accepting life's inherent difficulties, and why kindness—both to ourselves and others—can literally change our brain chemistry through oxytocin release. This episode beautifully demonstrates that asking "R U OK?" any day of the year, combined with genuine authenticity and creative expression, can create the life-changing conversations our communities desperately need.Resources: drjobraid.com Lifeline - www.lifeline.org.au RUOK - www.ruok.org.au/ Lynda Manwaring Website - www.lyndamanwaringmusic.com/ 'No Fortune Teller' on Spotify - open.spotify.com/album/3H0foQ3bn7Tooq0chJsP46?si=yWE1JCmcQx2PzfQ8w377FQ I acknowledge that I create this podcast on the traditional lands of the Wiradjuri people, who have been the custodians of this land around Orange, New South Wales, for thousands of generations.

Hello friends, This episode* of the Radio Reversal podcast brings together two interviews recorded over the last couple of months digging into the targeting of trans people, especially trans kids, and moral panics about gender and transition here and abroad. The first interview is between Anna and Necho Brocchi, proud trans woman and Service Delivery Coordinator at Open Doors Youth Service, and together they discuss the Crisafulli Government's ban on puberty blockers for trans youth here in so-called queensland, the Albanese Government's spurious “review” into gender affirming care, moral panics, and the ways the fight for trans justice is intrinsically tied to other struggles for justice, including prison and police abolition, housing and educational justice, and justice for First Nations People, here and everywhere. In the second interview, Han speaks with Wiradjuri transgender and non-binary academic, Professor Sandy O'Sullivan, about the recent wave of attacks on trans people, including the UK Supreme Court decision and how it threatens the rights and safety of trans people, and they unpack the colonial and white supremacist logics at play in anti-trans movements and the enforcement of the gender binary.This is part of our ongoing series on crisis, colonialism and collective futures - this time, we're considering how the confected “crisis” about trans people, their access to gender affirming care, their ability to make decisions about themselves/their identities/their lives, the spaces they have access to, which bathroom they use, and on and on, uses the tools and techniques of moral panic to justify harmful, discriminatory, oppressive, and violent government actions and policies. This confected “crisis” deflects scrutiny from the actual crises facing trans people, like structural discrimination, violence, over-policing, difficulties accessing gender-affirming care or indeed any medical care, issues relating to housing, employment, education, and more. As we see with other moral panics (e.g. around “youth crime” in so-called queensland), draconinan government actions are authorised by the discourse of “crisis”, and often, these actions are framed in terms of “safety”. Where we're writing from, so-called queensland, the recent ban on puberty blocking medication for trans youth has been positioned as a matter of safety, as taking precautions, for the kids' own protection. This is reprehensibly dishonest, given the overwhelming evidence that accessing gender affirming care (including puberty blockers) improves the safety and wellbeing of trans kids. But, for those who don't know any better, this might seem like a common sense precaution. In other cases, it is cis people whose safety is foregrounded; the recent Supreme Court ruling in the UK (amongst other things) excludes trans people - particularly trans women - from accessing certain single sex segregated spaces, in the name of “protecting” cis women.Also! This episode is coming out just in time to remind you that Saturday 19th July 2025 is Magandjin People's Pride's annual celebration of the queer community, in honour of the Stonewall riots. The event kicks off at 1pm at King George Squre for a rally and march, and then continues from 2pm at Jagera Hall, Musgrave Park. There will be markets, an art gallery, panel discussions, workshops, food and drinks, and live music and other performances. The event is all ages until 6pm, and then it's 18+. It's going to be a great day! Get your tickets here (free tickets available).That's your Saturday sorted; on Sunday, 20th July, kicking off at 1pm in King George Square is a rally organised by Justice for Palestine - Magandjin demanding sanctions on Israel, an end to Israeli occupation, apartheid, and genocide, and justice for Palestinians. And, the following weekend, on Sunday 27th July, at 1pm in King George Square there will be a rally in protest of the Crisafulli Government and the dangerous escalation in policing and incarceration of, and attacks on the rights of, young people, homeless people, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples. Also, one last thing - we are in the process of leaving Substack. We'll be publishing our newsletter via Ghost, instead. We'll finish up our current series on Crisis, Disaster and Collective Futures here, but just wanted to let you know of the change. We're hoping it'll be a seamless transition, at least insofar as your podcasting app goes. Yours in solidarity, Nat for the Radio Reversal Collective*If you're seeing “Episode 20” and thinking - “wait, did I miss an episode?

Dr. Jo Braid announces a two-week pause from podcast recording while travelling with family, demonstrating the four pillars of burnout recovery in action. She explains how this intentional break embodies connection by prioritizing deep family relationships, sleep through allowing her nervous system to truly rest, movement as joyful rather than obligatory, and mindset by releasing guilt around stepping away. Dr. Braid shares how the old version of herself would have felt guilty about this break, but now recognizes that taking intentional pauses isn't abandoning her mission of helping healthcare professionals - it's modelling sustainable well-being. She reminds listeners that recovery sometimes means putting down all the tools and simply being present with yourself and loved ones.Resources:Get started with burnout recovery here: drjobraid.com/podmapdrjobraid.comwww.instagram.com/burnoutrecoverydrwww.linkedin.com/in/drjobraidMusic, Mental Health and Wellbeing tickets:events.humanitix.com/music-mental-health-and-wellbeing I acknowledge that I create this podcast on the traditional lands of the Wiradjuri people, who have been the custodians of this land around Orange, New South Wales, for thousands of generations.

Journalist, author and theologian, Stan Grant on responding to injustice with grace and love.In a decades-long career as a journalist and foreign correspondent, Stan Grant saw some of the worst that humanity is capable of. It took its toll on him. And as a Wiradjuri man he has had to wrestle with identity, belonging, and who we all are in 21st century Australia. He went through a period of angst and anger, and he would say, some bitterness, as he and his people confronted injustice, prejudice and a history of oppression, violence and dispossession.But through a serious spiritual re-awakening, Grant has found a different way to be. On Life & Faith he describes the shape of that spiritual life and the surprising ways it has impacted him and how he sees the world and his place in it. Turning his back on anger, Grant outlines his renewed motivation for meeting hate with love and grace.His latest book, Murriyang: song of time, is a poetic account of his life and that of his family and his people, and offers a vision of the healing balm of Christian faith that has inspired Grant to see himself, other people and the creation itself, in a new light.

In this episode, we explore the transformative concept of "imperfect consistency" - prioritising the act of doing rather than the pursuit of perfection. We contrast perfect inconsistency (waiting for ideal conditions) with imperfect consistency (showing up regularly regardless of conditions) and examine how this approach can decrease your inner critic while building confidence. The episode unpacks the neuroscience behind consistent action, revealing how regular practice rewires your brain more effectively than occasional perfect performance.

*Content Warning: This episode of Doin' Time may contain audio images of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who have died, and discussion of Deaths in Custody.This special Doin' Time program is a dedication and tribute to the much loved and honourable Uncle Ray Jackson, born 27 March, 1941 and died on April 23 2015. He was a Wiradjuri warrior who dedicated his life to fighting for justice and human rights for Aboriginal people, and much more. Our first Tribute to Ray is Joseph Pugliese longtime activist and much loved guest on Doin Time, and close friend of Uncle Ray Jackson.  We will hear from his loved ones throughout the show.We will also interview Carolyn Jackson daughter of Uncle Ray. She has been a much loved part of the show since 2015 when her father passed away. Ray is missed by Carolyn, and her beautiful family.Lastly, we will bring you an interview with Rob from Monday Breakfast. On Saturday the 26th of April around 450 activists attended a counterprotest in the name of trans liberation. The action was countering the reactionary 'WOMEN WILL SPEAK' rally, organised by TERFs and white nationalists. A similar event held last year by the Women's Action Group, an organisation dedicated to spouting transphobia, was attended by members of the National Socialist Network. A group of trans and queer people, antifascists, and other allies disrupted Saturday's action by making noise and dancing to music in numbers vastly higher than that of the transphobic rally. Police set up a designated area during the day and used these powers to force activists, many of whom are disabled, to remove their masks before searching them with a wand. VicPol later used brutal force against protestors who were chanting about Victoria Police's murder of Somali man Abdifatah Ahmed in Footscray two weeks ago.  Doin' Time spoke to Rob Harrison, a proud non-binary, transgender and queer person, who attended the rally and witnessed the police violence. They are a co-host of the Monday Breakfast show at 3CR Community Radio. I invited Rob on to the show today because Uncle Ray was very committed to fighting police powers, and always stood in solidarity with our trans siblings. Rob gave an eyewitness account of the rally, and the police brutality.

Today I have the immense privilege of speaking with Bangarra Dance Theatre's James Boyd. James is a proud Aboriginal man with connections to the Kunja and Muruwari people of southwest Queensland. Born on Wiradjuri country in Orange, as a little boy, James wasn't quick to use his words, and had delayed speech. James's mum and dad then began to notice other things—James kept getting bruises. At just five years of age, James was diagnosed with Leukemia. In this most incredible episode, James shares his journey through cancer, the lows of hospital life, and also the highs when James was introduced to movement and music therapy as part of his recovery. And with that, he was introduced to dance. James then shares how he successfully auditioned for the Hunter School of the Performing Arts, and then how his world opened up at NAISDA Dance College. James then shares how, with his Leukemia is in remission, what it was like to receive a call from Frances Rings, the artistic director of Bangarra Dance Theatre. And then his decision to move to Sydney, which not only changed the course of his love life, but also defined his career.James continues to dance with Bangarra Dance Theatre, sharing the joy of dance across Australia and the world. For Bangarra performance times and tickets, head to bangarra.com.au and to follow all of James's adventures, you can find him on Instagram @jamesrossboyd. Talking Pointes is produced on the lands of the Gadigal People of the Eora Nation, to whom we pay our greatest respects.
