This RERUN was from episode #77 and in this episode Mel and Trish sit down with their long-term friend Lisa Curry to chat about, among other things, life, business, and hormones. Although Lisa is well known for her sporting achievements, television appearances and involvement on the speaking circuit, many don’t realise she is also a successful businesswoman.In 2015, Lisa established Happy Healthy You, an Australian-based health and lifestyle company with women’s hormonal specialist and Naturopath, Jeff Butterworth. Although the girls have never wanted to hyper-focus on hormones, in the end, it’s an unavoidable topic for midlife women. The impact of the modern lifestyle often leads to poor sleep, low energy, hormonal mood swings, poor immunity, dull skin, and unhappy gut health. The awareness of these extensive issues led to Lisa and Jeff developing a suite of high-quality products, programs and recipes supported by an experience team of natural practitioners. There is also an impressively large community-based support group, all found in their one-stop-shop online business.As Lisa says, “its important our bodies are working for us, not against us.”Of course, with such a long history of friendship, there is also a lot of laughs, reminiscing and tearful moments.

Following on from an early episode in the ‘Don’t Give a Fifty’ back catalogue, episode #98 saw Mel & Trish in the studio with Trish’s nieces Matilda, Baillie and Mollie and her children, Lily and Wiley for a fun, educational chat about talking to our younger generations.From the outset, this is an ultra-dynamic episode with the gang from Gen Y & Z putting Mel and Trish through their generational paces. There are quizzes, lots of banter, a confession that we Gen X’ers know a thing or two, and you will learn a new meaning for the name ‘Barbara.’Enjoy! Hosted on Acast.

In episode #98, Mel & Trish invited their 50isher friends Linda Dow and Kirsty Holmes into the studio to chat about the significant role they play in saving lives as a critical care paramedic and senior fire fighter.The magic lies in the fact these two ultra-humble women, don’t see anything remarkable about what they do for a living. For Kirsty and Linda, it’s all in a day’s work. Mel & Trish, however, beg to differ, and as the conversation unfolds, it becomes obvious that they are, in fact, very extraordinary and rather than slipping under the radar as anonymous ‘ambos’ and ‘firies’, should be acknowledged, and celebrated.Enjoy these two exceptional women.
