First Things First

No matter what happens in this Voice, it will impact young people the most. 

Today we're joined by Allira Davis and Bridget Cama today from the Uluru Youth Dialogue to chat about why The Voice is so important for young people in this country and how it will impact them. 

The Voice isn't something that has just popped up, and the girls chat through their journey campaigning over the last year or so and why this Voice to Parliament is so important. 

Plus Brooke and Matty also talk about how you can best support mob during this time.

We're aiming to simplify the Voice to Parliament for you today. 

We'll tell you exactly what it is, what it will do and what it will mean for Indigenous communities. Plus we tackle some of the most frequently asked questions about the referendum. 

We also share some personal stories on our upbringing and what effect colonisation had on our families - even as close as 2 generations ago. 

And why this referendum is so important both for First Nations + Torres Straight people, but also for the future of this country. We're in this together.

NOTE: This episode discusses mental health, depression and mentions of suicide. 

We want to be honest with you today... Our mental health at the moment isn't the best, and that's ok. 

We're both going through breakups, Brooke's feeling a bit lonely and Matty's just started therapy and we want to talk about it. 

How do we deal with it? Do we hermit, or party? Why are we feeling this way? 
We're unpacking it all and having a pretty real and raw conversation to let you know you're not alone. 
Plus... there's even a revelation today - It's a real therapy session!

Matty is off sick this week but we have an incredibly special replacement... Brooke's Dad Pete! 

You might remember Pete from Brooke's Bachelorette season. Brooke and Pete have an incredibly special relationship and how they came in touch with each other is a beautiful story. 

Brooke didn't have a lot of consistent males in her life until Pete came along and showed her what a real man and a real father is like. 

On today's episode they share stories from Brooke's mother's childhood and also chat about Brooke's upbringing. 
This is part 1, part 2 of this chat will continue next week.
