LAP 9: How Bestselling Author And Medical Student, Alexia Paglia, Is Rethinking Health Literacy In The Age Of Information Overload

<p><strong>Alexia Paglia</strong> works in a system where information is everywhere and understanding is not.</p><p>In this episode of Full Throttle, Alexia breaks down why health misinformation thrives in an age of unlimited access and how AI, wellness culture, social media and oversimplified narratives have quietly distorted health literacy. We talk about why knowing the facts isn’t enough, why storytelling matters just as much as science, and how trust (not fear) shapes real health outcomes.</p><p>Alexia takes us back to the moment she realised healthcare wasn’t just something to study but something she wanted to change. Drawing on her experience across biotech, health data, clinical trials and now medicine, she shares the gaps the system still doesn’t address, especially for young people and families, and how those blind spots led her to inclusive medical education and bestselling children’s books.</p><p>We also talk about translating complex science without dumbing it down, holding confidence while still learning and what it means to build credibility early, including being named <strong>Young Sydneysider of the Year</strong>,<strong> </strong>in a field that doesn’t always make room for new voices.</p><p>This conversation is about who health knowledge is built for, who gets left out and what changes when understanding becomes the priority.</p>

LAP 8: How Katie Mildren Built Katharina Lou - Inspired By Her Mum's Vintage Wardrobe And A Good Cosmopolitan

<p>Founder of <strong>Katharina Lou</strong>, <strong>Katie Mildren</strong> has built a brand defined by colour, confidence and a very clear point of view, at a moment when much of fashion feels oddly beige.</p><p>In this episode of Full Throttle, Katie unpacks why boldness matters in a cycle-obsessed industry, where playing it safe has become the default. We talk about where Katharina Lou sits within the new wave of slow-fashion labels reshaping modern Australian style and how to hold your nerve when trends are loud, fast and fleeting.</p><p>Katie takes us back to the early days, the moment she realised the brand had legs, not just a hobby, and the decisions that helped take Katharina Lou from idea to cult favourite. We get into growing without overreaching, building desirability without hype and why identity will always outperform virality. There’s also a candid look at positioning... feeling high-end without being closed-off, balancing creative control with commercial reality,and protecting the Katharina Lou world (the prints, the pinks, the unapologetic joy) as the brand scales.</p><p>We also talk through launching during isolation, the decisions that tested the business and how Katie protects her creative focus in an industry that rewards more, faster, louder.</p><p>This episode is about taste with backbone, optimism with discipline, and building a fashion brand that knows exactly who it is and has no interest in diluting it.</p>

LAP 7: How Marcella Bava Turned Eating On Camera Into A Business With 32K Followers (& Why We Will Always Trust Her With Our Dinner Plans)

<p><strong>Marcella Bava (@cella.bava) </strong>operates in a corner of the internet where taste still carries weight.</p><p>In this episode of Full Throttle, Marcella unpacks why food reviewing has exploded, why we’re collectively obsessed with where to eat and why taste is the real currency online. We talk Dubai chocolate, where to actually find good matcha, and the craft (and logistics) of looking good while eating on camera.</p><p>Marcella gets candid about cancelling social cancel culture, navigating paid versus authentic content and the moment she realised her account wasn’t just a place to post food, it was a business. We also talk about creator fatigue, being tired of always being “on” and how she’s managed to build credibility in a space where audiences are increasingly sceptical.</p><p>This conversation is about restraint in a feed built on excess, discernment in a culture of hype and why people trust Marcella, even when someone else might say the same thing.</p>
