The Midweek Squeeze \ Hello from self-isolation! Staying sane in quarantine with kids and how to get your confidence back

This is a very exciting episode of The Midweek Squeeze! Why, I hear you ask? Well it's coming from the thick of day two of quarantine! YUP. Coronavirus is now a reality for our family. Happy to report my son and I are totally fine, but it's hit Ollie's dad, so we've been ordered to isolate as we've had contact with him. Experts reckon we're all going to be impacted by Coronavirus at some point, with the prospect of schools closing almost a certainty. Self isolating is fine if it's just you and y...

The Midweek Squeeze \ Why living in a state of victimhood will keep you small and yep, you deserve better

HOLA! For this week's instalment of The Midweek Squeeze I'll be discussing my experience with victimhood, how living in that space will keep you stuck in your story and why it'll stop you from reaching your potential.

Erika Cramer PART 2 \ How she transformed a lifetime of trauma to become The Queen of Confidence

If you haven't listened to that ep yet, make sure you go and listen to that one first as it sets the scene of Erika's childhood and how she got to where she is now. In this episode we discuss the lessons her traumas have taught her, reconnecting with her dad, how she is grateful for everyone who has hurt her or let her down and how she uses her p...

Erika Cramer PART 1 \ How she transformed a lifetime of trauma to become The Queen of Confidence

Born in the US and raised by a mother with bipolar, Erika Cramer was physically abused and neglected from a young age, and so spent much of her childhood in and out of the foster care system where she was sexually abused. She was then kidnapped by her estranged father, then reunited with her mother a year later. Erika suffered two serious car accidents, one of which she had to relearn to walk again, then lost her first husband to drink driving not even a year later. Completely lost in the wake o...

The Midweek Squeeze \ Navigating heartache with a new baby and why a morning routine will change your life

On this instalment of The Midweek Squeeze I answer a question from one of my followers, Marissa, who wants to know how to deal with heartbreak when her fiancé walked out 5 weeks ago and she has an eight month old son. It sounds so similar to my situation so I break down how I dealt with life and being a mother in those early stages, the ways I tried to find the silver lining in my heartache, and how caring for my son helped me navigate that incredibly turbulent time. I also discuss the importanc...

Amy Molloy \ Overcoming adversity, joyfully

By the age of just 23, Amy Molloy had lived a life most people wouldn’t experience in a lifetime. A widow, recovering from a severe eating disorder, with a father who made a miraculous recovery from the brink of death, Amy channeled her trauma the only way she knew how… she put pen to paper. The author of a number of books, along with an extraordinary career as a magazine editor, Amy was born in the UK but now calls the South Coast of New South Wales home, where she lives with her husband, two c...

The Midweek Squeeze \ Getting woo woo with it

It hasn’t taken long for me to eventually reveal my woo-woo roots. What are we at… episode 16!? I’ve loved everything to do with the spiritual world since I was a little girl. Crystals, tarot cards, oils, smudge sticks, psychics, mediums, astrology, angel cards… you name it. I’m on it. These practices collectively make me feel connected to something greater than myself and that in turn provides me comfort, particularly through challenging times. And if it makes me feel better, and I believe it h...

The Juice with Monique Barry \ Love, relationships and the truth about self worth

I have a new layer of Lemonade to introduce you to... this is The Juice with Monique Barry and it'll be dropping every four weeks! Moni is my life coach, biz coach (she helped me create Lemonade!), dear friend and scorpio soul sis. She's a fellow single mum and has dealt with her fair share of lemons throughout her life, but she's turned those adversities into an opportunity to not only grow and evolve, but help others navigating a rough time as well.

The Midweek Squeeze \ Anxiety, feeling the the feels, and my kinder fail

Usually I'm really prepared every time I hop on the microphone, but this week I have... nothing. I felt I didn't have anything insightful wrapped with a neat bow to share this time around. But then I realised, that's actually okay, that's life, sometimes we're in the middle of feeling, and learning, and we don't have the answers yet, but it doesn't mean what we're experiencing right now, as we wade through the thick of it, isn't valuable within itself. Anxiety has followed me around relentlessly...

Elle Halliwell \ What it's like to choose between saving yourself or your unborn child

At the age of 30, Elle Halliwell was at the top of her game. The Fashion Editor for the Daily Telegraph, regular stints on Channel 9 as the entertainment reporter, and even a weekly show on the Nova radio network, when seemingly out of nowhere, she was diagnosed with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia, turning her world upside down. Then, deep in the midst of coming to terms with the shock of her diagnosis, 48 hours later Elle found out she was pregnant. She was faced with the impossible decision: termina...

The Midweek Squeeze \ Why toxic positivity is bullshit

I'm sure you’ve encountered toxic positivity a number of times you've at least seen those quotes on instagram about the importance of a positive attitude and being upbeat and happy ALL. THE. TIME. While that sounds lovely in theory, sadly, it's impossible to feel happy all the time. Toxic positivity focuses on everything that’s good, happy, and joyful, and discounts anything that may feel unpleasant or trigger any form of so-called negative emotion. It's harmful. It diminishes our experience. Ma...

Mel Greig \ Life after the royal prank call that changed it all

When I mention the words 'royal prank' I’ve no doubt you’re now picturing Mel Greig – one half of the radio DJ duo caught up in the firestorm that surrounded the whole fiasco. There was a time where you couldn’t turn on your TV, open a paper, or scroll social media without some mention of the scandal. But just in case you need a refresher… In 2012 Mel and her Hot 30 co-host Michael Christian pranked the hospital where the Duchess of Cambridge was receiving treatment. They were impersonating the ...

This is a brand new component of Lemonade where I'll drop into your earphones once a week, on a Thursday, for a quick chat to discuss a whole myriad of things I find interesting from self care, to goal setting, to different tools I implemented on my healing journey, to breaking down the lessons I’ve learnt in my life that could be helpful for you. Maybe you're going through your own lemons now, or perhaps you just just thrive on self improvement, whatever brings y...

Amber Gwynn \ How a multiple sclerosis diagnosis sparked a self-love movement

Amber Gwynn glows with self confidence, but it wasn’t always this way. Bullied at school for her weight, she’s tried every diet under the sun, and still, she hated her body. But when Amber developed multiple sclerosis, temporarily paralyzing her from the waist down, she realized how incredible her body really is and vowed to treat it with the love and respect it deserves. This inspired her to become a passionate campaigner for self love, and she achieves this through her Non Air Brushed me Insta...

Kelly Cartwright \ One in three million

When doctors discovered a rare form of cancer in Kelly Cartwright’s leg when she was just 15 years old, they gave her two impossible options. Radical surgery, which wasn’t guaranteed to work, or amputation. She chose the latter, and quickly discovered while there were some things she couldn’t do anymore, there was plenty she could do. So she set her sights on track and field, with a dream to win gold at the Paralympics, and achieved exactly that in London in long jump along with a silver in the ...

SJ says what happened next broke her into a million ...

Emily Hall \ Widow. Mum. Survivor.

Emily Hall was just like any new mum weeks out from her due date. She was exhausted, sore, it was difficult to sleep, all the while feeling the melting pot of nerves, excitement and fear mums experience just before their baby arrives. But what started like an ordinary day almost three years ago ended as the worst in her life. Her husband Matt was dirt bike riding with friends, when he suffered severe heat stroke and died. The next thing Emily knew police were at her door and suddenly she was a w...

Georgia Love \ When it rains, it pours

Georgia Love needs no introduction - but I’ll give you one anyway. An exceptionally talented TV reporter, Georgia quickly worked her way up the ranks and landed her dream gig presenting the statewide weekday bulletin for WIN Television in Tasmania at just 26 years old, when she was offered the role of The Bachelorette. While Australia was falling in love with her, she was falling in love with Lee, the man of her dreams. But while everything certainly looked like roses and champagne on camera, be...

Lisa Burling \ From losing it all to living the life of her dreams

Lisa Burling was living the life as a PR powerhouse in London, spearheading huge global campaigns, rubbing shoulders with the rich and famous, when she decided it was time to move back home to Australia, settle down in a small coastal New South Wales town, and start a family. Everything was cruising along just as she’d imagined it, she’d reconnected with her high school sweetheart, given birth to her first child Luca, and fallen pregnant with her second son Nate not long after. But her picture p...

Kate Malvenan \ The fight of her life

Here’s the thing about Kate Malvenan – she is honestly unlike anyone I’ve ever met. She’s brilliant, inspiring, empowering, her energy and enthusiasm for life is infectious – I was hanging off her every word and I could’ve sat and chatted to her for hours. Kate was a celebrated film make up artist, before turning her focus to homewares with an exquisite shop on the Gold Coast called Maison and Maison. She fell head over heels with the man she describes as the absolute love of her life, but not l...

She always wanted to be a young mum, and after two miscarriages, she finally got her wish, giving birth to her first daughter Milla at 21, and her second daughter Arlo not long after. Everything felt like it had fallen into place. That was until she discovered her AFL partner’s infidelity, completely upending her world.

Elizabeth Anile \ WELCOME TO LEMONADE!

HOLA! Thank you so much for tuning in to my very first podcast. To kickstart the series, I thought it'd be a good idea to turn the tables and give you guys the opportunity to get to know me a little more, to hear my story, where the idea to create Lemonade came from, all things single mum life, and how I'm turning the hardest time in my life, my lemons, into lemonade through this very podcast.
