Rewire Your Money Mindset, Part 1 with Marion Mays
So many women describe themselves as "not good with money" but that story isn't a fact. It's a pattern. And patterns can be changed. In this episode of Fernwood Unfiltered, host Georgie Tunny sits down with award-winning financial services innovator, certified money coach, and founder of Money Strong Australia, Marion Mays, to talk about what it really means to be financially strong as a woman — and how to get there, no matter where you're starting from. Marion brings a refreshingly human approach to money, one rooted in behavioural science rather than spreadsheets. She unpacks why so many women feel behind, what's really holding them back, and the mindset shifts that change everything. From understanding your financial identity to navigating money in relationships, this conversation is for every woman who's ever felt like money is someone else's domain. What You'll Learn: What it really means to be "financially strong" and why it's within reach Why so many women lack money confidence and how to start shifting that belief How to start if you feel behind, without feeling overwhelmed Marion's three-part framework: making, managing, and multiplying money The behaviours and patterns that keep women stuck financially and how to break them How money confidence supports freedom in careers, relationships, and life decisions About Marion Mays: Marion Mays is an award-winning financial services innovator, certified money coach, and founder of Money Strong Australia, a professional education platform dedicated to helping women build financial confidence, capability, and security.

Gut-First Healing with Nat Kringoudis
Fatigue. Bloating. Brain fog. Hormones that feel completely out of whack. For so many women, these symptoms become background noise, something to push through rather than pay attention to. But what if your body is actually trying to tell you something? In this episode of Fernwood Unfiltered, host Georgie Tunny sits down with women’s health expert, speaker, and author Nat Kringoudis to unpack one of the most talked-about and most misunderstood topics in women’s health: inflammation. Nat breaks down what inflammation actually is, why it matters so much for women specifically, and the everyday habits that could be quietly driving it. Drawing on her background in Chinese medicine and integrative health, Nat offers a grounded, practical approach to understanding what your body is communicating and how to start working with it, not against it. Whether you’re dealing with hormonal symptoms, persistent fatigue, or just a general sense that something’s off, this episode will help you connect the dots. What You’ll Learn: What inflammation actually is, and the everyday signs women often overlook - Why inflammation is such a key issue in women’s health specifically How inflammation shows up in conditions like PCOS, endometriosis, PMS, and perimenopause - The link between gut health, stress, cortisol, and chronic inflammation Practical daily habits to reduce inflammation naturally, including food, sleep, and movement Whether anti-inflammatory supplements are worth it, and where to start this week About Nat Kringoudis: Nat Kringoudis is a women’s health expert, speaker, and author specialising in hormones, fertility, and overall wellbeing.

Sexual health: How to reconnect with your body, rewrite the myths, and enjoy intimacy on your terms
Pleasure isn't something you've missed the boat on, or a part of yourself you're too late to reconnect with. So many women were simply never taught how their own desire and arousal actually work, and then quietly wonder why they feel disconnected from it. For many, the preconceived ideas we absorbed about what sex "should" look like are the very thing standing between us and intimacy that actually feels good. In this episode of Fernwood Unfiltered, host Georgie Tunny sits down with qualified sexologist Laura Miano for an honest, expert conversation about sex, desire and how to reconnect with your body on your own terms. Laura breaks down the myths so many of us grew up with to share practical, judgement-free insight you can actually use. Whether you've felt disconnected from your body, you're unsure of what you really want, or you've struggled to put it into words with your partner, this episode will change the way you think about pleasure and intimacy. What You'll Learn: Why so many women were never taught how their own pleasure works, and why that's a starting point, not a personal failing How emotional safety and connection shape desire, and why your needs shift day to day and stage to stage The truth behind common libido myths, and the idea that sex has to follow a "sequence" Simple, empowering ways to get curious about what you want, and to actually talk to your partner about it About Laura Miano: Laura Miano is a qualified sexologist and the founder of MC Sexology, specialising in helping women better understand their bodies, desire and relationships. Her work focuses on breaking down stigma and creating safe, empowering conversations around intimacy, pleasure and sexual wellbeing. Laura is passionate about supporting women to reconnect with themselves, build confidence, and develop a deeper understanding of what feels good for them, both physically and emotionally. She believes that when women break away from preconceived ideas about sex and get curious about their own desires, they can approach intimacy in the way that uniquely appeals to them, on their own terms.

Anxiety: How to stop fighting it, work with it, and show up for the life you deserve
Anxiety isn't a flaw to fix or a feeling you have to wait out before you're allowed to live. It's a normal, protective emotion, and for many women, the pressure to feel "ready," to be confident, or to be happy all the time is quietly holding them back from the things that matter most. In this episode of Fernwood Unfiltered, host Georgie Tunny sits down with speaker, author and anxiety expert Dr Jodi Richardson for an honest, expert conversation about why so many women feel constantly overwhelmed and what to actually do about it. Jodi cuts through the myth that we should feel happy all the time to share practical, evidence-based tools you can start using now. Whether you're stuck in your head, caught in the "just push through" cycle, or waiting to feel ready before you take the leap, this episode will change the way you think about anxiety. What You'll Learn: Why anxiety is a normal, protective emotion and why fighting it can make things worse How avoidance quietly heightens anxiety over time, and how to recognise it in yourself The real link between anxiety, hormones, and the different stages of a woman's life Simple, practical tools to move forward with anxiety, even when you don't feel ready About Dr Jodi Richardson: Dr Jodi Richardson is a speaker, educator, author and host of the award-winning Well, Hello Anxiety podcast. With a PhD in Medicine and a background in exercise physiology, she is passionate about making the science of anxiety and wellbeing accessible, translating research into practical strategies that help women understand themselves, navigate life's challenges with greater confidence, and thrive. She is the author of Anxious Kids and Anxious Mums and presents to schools, workplaces and communities across Australia.

Sleep: Why sleep is not a luxury and why women need to start making it a priority
Sleep isn’t a treat you earn at the end of a productive day. It’s a biological necessity, and for many women, it’s being quietly undermined by stress, hormonal shifts, and the pressure to simply push through. In this episode of Fernwood Unfiltered, host Georgie Tunny sits down with Behavioural Sleep Medicine Specialist Meagan E. Crowther for an honest, expert conversation about why women are disproportionately affected by poor sleep and what to actually do about it. Meagan cuts through the noise of trendy sleep advice to share evidence-based, practical strategies you can start using now. Whether you’re navigating perimenopause, postpartum exhaustion, or just the relentless hum of a busy life, this episode will change the way you think about rest. What You’ll Learn: Why sleep deprivation hits women differently and why it’s not just tiredness The real relationship between stress, your nervous system, and sleep quality How hormonal changes across your life stage affect your sleep architecture Practical, sustainable strategies to improve your sleep starting tonight About Dr Meagan Crowther: Meagan E.
