They say you shouldn’t meet your heroes - but I have to disagree in this case - Getting to interview Jamila Rizvi was incredible. A thought provoking conversation about women’s health, mental health, disability, education and so much more. Tune into @3CR at 5pm AEDT today 🙏
1/2 @JamilaRizvi is a keynote speaker, best-selling author, podcast presenter, and gender equality advocate. She is Deputy Managing Director of @FutureWomen — a company that champions gender equity in Australian workplaces through professional development, community and advocacy.

Note to marketers, if you go ahead and ‘like’ about 500 pictures on a persons profile, across several platforms, in order to try to secure their business, it comes across as deeply creepy 👀 #Marketing

I had literal goosebumps on my arms as I interviewed Mimi Kwa- she gave so much of herself to it. Make sure you tune in to the producers cut today on Brainwaves at 5pm on @3CR
1/3 Mimi Kwa's memoir begins with her receiving news that her father was suing her in the Supreme Court of Western Australia — and unpacks the physical and mental health repercussions in its wake.   Her book 'House of Kwa' is now being turned into a TV series.

Currently in the wonderfully weird new position of having created too much quality radio content that I have to actually stop for a while 👀 It’s lovely to be told that, and it’s weird. Can’t wait to release some of this! Feeling very lucky to interview these folks 🙏

Hey, Simmy here! Mental health, chronic pain and the healing power of music and art, particularly with my ongoing health journey, are just some of the topics myself and one of my old school friends @flicmanning have a chat about on her @3CR Community Radio show 'Brainwaves'.

Happy 2nd Birthday to my book ‘Living Human’. I still get messages weekly from people thanking me for writing about invisible illness, mental health and mindset. Thank you for supporting my work + for sharing your truth with me. It all feels like a privilege 🙏 #authorlife

I interviewed a rockstar that is currently on the cover of RollingStone @rollingstoneaus for Brainwaves on @3CR How surreal. I’m so excited for @Voyagerau and for the 🎸 Queen I was lucky enough to have known at school, Simone Dow. Respect. What a journey! #rollingstone

It’s been a thrill to reconnect with a school pal I am utterly proud of (and in awe of). Simone Dow, metal guitarist of @Voyagerau , pain warrior and all round gem joins me on Brainwaves today 13/09/23 at 5pm AEST. Tune in!!
1/3 'My chronic pain condition only drives me further to succeed,' says guitarist Simone Dow of the pop-metal band @voyagerau (who won ninth place at the @Eurovision 2023 contest). Known as a firecracker on stage, she brings an energy to her performances unmatched by her peers.

1/2 Former MasterChef Australia contestant, Aaron Sanders was diagnosed with Crohn's disease about a decade ago, after being misdiagnosed as having a parasite. He is now using his social media presence to be an advocate for people living with invisible disease and mental health.

Last night I was standing outside, when the sky went bright with a meteor/comet/space debris falling. It was genuinely quite spectacular and colourful. It felt quite special to see it- and perhaps a tad terrifying too 😆 #melbournemeteor #space

My book ‘Living Human’ will soon be on a shelf at a retailer I’ve been hoping to sell via with for a long time. Those of us who released books in lockdown will understand the journey is a tad longer. Very excited.
