    Mini Motivation: How to restart without the shame spiral

    24/03/2026 | 16 mins.
    In this Mini Motivation episode, host Amelia Phillips is back with leading habit change expert Dr Gina Cleo to discuss something most of us are all too familiar with – the dreaded shame spiral. Why are women so quick to see a missed workout or two as a personal failing? How can we prevent the shame spiral and, most importantly, how can we get back on track when we've veered away from the person we want to be – whether that's with a week of being grouchy or a gym membership going to waste?
    About the guest:

    Dr Gina Cleo is a world-leading habit change expert, Accredited Dietitian, and Assistant Professor at Bond University. With a PhD in habit change, she is a sought-after speaker who turns cutting-edge science into practical tools to transform productivity, health, mindset, and lifestyle habits for the long term.

    Is high cholesterol always bad – and can we lower it without medication?

    17/03/2026 | 38 mins.
    In this episode of Healthy Her, host Amelia Phillips chats with leading Australian lipid expert and chemical pathologist Dr Michael Page (aka Instagram's 'Cholesterologist') about the complex topic of high cholesterol – a real problem for so many mid-life women once oestrogen drops. Or is it?

    Clearing up once and for all whether high cholesterol is actually something to worry about, Dr Michael also outlines the steps we can take to lower our levels without medication. He discusses all the basic (plus some more advanced) lipid markers, answers Amelia's questions around the impact of GLP-1s and weight loss on cholesterol, and offers his views on the role of plant sterols and other supplements.

    About the guest:

    Dr Michael Page is a doctor, lipid specialist and CEO of Clinipath Pathology, a leading pathology practice in Western Australia. The former President of the Australian Medical Association (WA), he completed his PhD on cholesterol disorders that run in families, and runs a clinic for patients with related conditions.

    A consultant chemical pathologist with a special interest in lipid disorders, cardiovascular risk assessment and advanced lipid testing, Dr Michael helps GPs and specialists interpret complex cholesterol lipid patterns and translates them into practical prevention strategies.

    He has extensive experience managing inherited lipid conditions such as familial hypercholesterolaemia, as well as guiding patients through the often confusing landscape of cholesterol results, coronary calcium scoring and medication decisions. Dr Michael also shares practical advice and the latest research as the 'Cholesterologist' on Instagram.

    10/03/2026 | 23 mins.
    In this Ask Me Anything episode, host Amelia Phillips answers listener questions on one of the hottest topics in wellness right now – the use of peptides. So, what are they and should we all be injecting? Are they safe? Which ones show the most promise? Amelia does a deep dive into the peptide trend so you don't have to.

    She tackles Lyn4963's excellent question: Creatine for women in their 70s, too? I do strength training and keep very fit!
