LA based actress, model and creative Chessi Phillips took an entire year off her acting career because of her skin and its impacts on her confidence. In this episode, she tells us all she learnt in that year, from cutting out people instead of cutting out food, and how to stop critiquing every. single. part. of your body that you THINK is a flaw. Do you tear apart every photo taken of yourself to the point where you don't even feel like posting it anymore? We're all guilty of that, but we shouldn't be. It's time to do better for ourselves and Chessi tells us just how to do that in this episode.

A convo on acne and self-confidence - w/ Chessi Phillips

I chat to my friends and other cool people on this podcast. If you love eavesdropping, tune in! I’m your host Jess Rendall, grab a seat, let’s have a Convo.

Society & Culture

Personal Journals

Philosophy

Places & Travel

Your twenties are some of the most exciting times in your life. Reserved for figuring out what you love and what you hate. It’s a time where you can afford to be selfish while you’re responsible for you and you alone. Many use to this time embark on career defining adventures, like travel blogger Courtney Leopard and international model Elly-Grace spoke about in previous episodes. But as rewarding as those adventures may be, the road there can get quite lonely at times, something Aussie Blogger Milly-Rose Bannister knows all about. 
Grab a seat, for this convo on being alone, but not lonely.

Probably, but today’s guest, ditched the job market and started her own business during a global pandemic. At a time when jobs were few and far between she created her own.

Why I left my 9-5 corporate job w/ Teneal Eske founder of Sweeter Social

I would. like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land this podcast was made on. The Jagera and Turrbal people of Meanjin Brisbane. Sovereignty was never ceded. 
This episode is part one of a two part series on racism. In this first episode, I speak to Proud Wakka Wakka and Yuin woman Alexis Moran on Australia's culture of casual racism. We unpack why it took the death of a Black man in America to spark a movement here in Australia, the Black Lives Matter movement, black squares on instagram and activism as a trend, and why celebrating Australia Day is problematic and disrespectful to our First Nation Peoples. 
I wanted to bring you stories from both sides of the world. To show people that it doesn’t “only happen in America” (I’m talking to you Prime Minister Morrison, claiming slavery never happened in Australia). Injustice is happening everywhere, and if you don’t agree, you may need to check your privilege. Grab a seat, you need to hear this very important Convo.

It happens in Australia too - A convo on racism w/ Alexis Moran

TRIGGER WARNING: Eating disorders and anorexia will be discussed throughout the podcast and you can reach out for help by visiting Beyond Blue, The Butterfly Foundation or call Lifeline on 13 11 14 if you are in Australia. 
The lovely Jess Tathem shares some of her most raw and real moments about her Anorexia Nervosa diagnosis. She talks eating disorders, diet culture and the constant battle she faces internally. Like Elly and Chessi shared in previous episodes, Jess also struggled with the pressures society places on us to fit a certain “mould”. From the very beginning of her troubled journey with food, to her post-diagnosis recovery Jess shares all the highs and lows. Some days it takes her two hours to finish a meal, but through tears and the motivation to get better, she’s slowly but steadily on the road to recovery. This is her story. Grab a seat, you need to hear this very important convo.
