Inherited

Hello!

We’re back with our monthly Life Lessons episode, and this time we’re joined by Michelle Battersby. Michelle is a business leader, President at Peanut, previous co-founder of Sunroom, and mum to two boys, Bobby and Alfie.

In this conversation, Michelle opens up about the raw reality of early motherhood, including how isolating it felt being on the other side of the world without her support system. She speaks candidly about the unexpected feelings of regret she experienced with her first son, and how she’s navigated the ongoing juggle between career ambition and raising a family. We also dive into tall poppy syndrome and why Michelle believes in never choosing the safe option when it comes to your career.

Finally, we touch on what it means for Michelle to be back in Australia this Mother’s Day, partnering with THE ICONIC, a full-circle moment that reflects both her personal journey and the season of life she’s in now.

This interview touches on experiences of post-partum depression. If any of the themes in this episode raised any concerns for you, support is available at BeyondBlue.org.au.

Hello!

Today I’m joined by Chloé Hayden. Chloé is an actor, author, and advocate, best known for her role as Quinni in the hit Netflix series Heartbreak High. In 2022, she became Australia’s first openly autistic actress in a leading TV role, helping to redefine on-screen representation of neurodivergent people.

In this conversation, we dive into Chloé’s upbringing, from growing up as the eldest of five to having over 50 foster siblings, and why homeschooling ended up being one of the best decisions her parents ever made for her. We talk about her relationship with her husband Dylan, her lifelong love of the Titanic, and how she first found her way into acting.

We also get into Heartbreak High, the impact of Quinni as a character, why the role means so much to so many people, and what it was like the moment they called ‘cut’ on set for the very last time.
