The Hidden Toxins in Activewear (And What Every Woman Should Know) ~ with Jade Payne

Most of us are becoming more conscious about what we eat, the skincare we use, and even the cleaning products in our homes… but have you ever stopped to think about the clothes touching your skin all day? Activewear has become a daily uniform for many women - whether we're exercising, running errands, or simply living life on the go. But what if those fabrics are made from materials that may be impacting both our health and the environment? Today's guest, Jade Payne, founder of Wild Body Australia, knows this conversation all too well. After being diagnosed with an extremely rare kidney cancer at just 33 years old, Jade began questioning the hidden toxins in everyday life - including the synthetic activewear she had worn for years as a CrossFitter and busy mum of four. What began as a deeply personal health journey has now turned into a powerful mission to help women move, live, and dress more consciously. In episode 140 of Her Best Version, we explore the reality of synthetic fabrics, the potential health implications of wearing them daily, and how Jade turned one of life's most challenging moments into the creation of a purpose-driven brand. ......

Financial Health & Long term Security ~ with Carmelle Pavan

Money in the bank doesn't always mean security… and today's conversation may completely change how you see your financial future. Today on Her Best Version, I'm joined by the inspiring Carmelle Pavan — General Manager at leading Australian bullion company As Good As Gold Australia, and co-founder of As Good As Gold Women, the first precious metals company in the world dedicated entirely to empowering women toward financial freedom. Carmelle brings her deep knowledge of the financial system into this conversation, as we explore a topic that feels more important than ever: the truth about money, inflation, and how we can create greater financial security in uncertain times. Together, we unpack how money began, how the modern banking system works behind the scenes, why money sitting in the bank can quietly lose value over time, and why precious metals like gold and silver have remained trusted stores of wealth for centuries. This is such an empowering episode, especially for women who want to feel more informed, more confident, and more in control of their financial future. ...............

From Conflict To Calm~ with Mediator Kate Russell

What if the conversations you fear most are actually the doorway to deeper connection? In today's episode, I'm joined by Kate Russell -  a mediator with more than 20 years of experience helping people navigate the moments we tend to avoid: the hard talks, the simmering tension, the workplace or family conflict that keeps you awake at 2am replaying every word. Kate believes conflict isn't a sign something is broken - it's a sign something matters. And in this conversation, she shares how to turn those uncomfortable moments into opportunities for clarity, confidence and stronger relationships.  We dive into her journey into mediation, how she reframes conflict, and her practical tools for bringing up tricky conversations without triggering defensiveness. Kate covers how to lower the temperature when things get heated, navigating conflict over text or email, and why curiosity is the most underrated relationship skill. This episode is full of grounded, compassionate wisdom to help you communicate more openly, lead more strongly and stay connected even when things get uncomfortable. If you've ever wished for better tools to navigate tricky conversations and conflict, this episode is for you! ..........

Rethinking Everything: Dr Thomas Cowan on Germs, Water & Heart Health

In today's episode, I sit down with Dr Thomas Cowan - one of the most influential and controversial voices in holistic medicine. Known for challenging conventional ideas about contagion, water, and even the root cause of heart attacks and stroke, Dr Cowan brings a depth of wisdom that invites us to question everything we thought we knew about health. We explore what led him to break away from the mainstream narrative, why he believes germs aren't the enemy, what "healthy water" actually is, and the tools he uses to help the body and environment thrive. He also shares a radically different view of heart attacks and strokes, the daily practices he recommends for true heart health, and the surprising amount of water we really need. If you're ready for a conversation that challenges assumptions and opens doors to new ways of understanding the body, this episode is for you. ...
