Join myself in today's episode, as I discuss the green flags in relationships. I believe that it’s important to be acknowledging these positive signs and appreciating them in our relationships. I feel as though we are so focused on pay attention to the red flags that we forget to notice the green ones; it’s important we show our gratitude for the people in which we hold strong and safe relationships with. 

I have a brand new guest joining me in today’s ep, the beautiful Macy Hall! Join us, as we sit down and discuss some experiences that led us on a path of having low self worth, self-esteem and how insecurities begun to manifest. We move on to talk about how we learn from negative experiences and how we grow and move on from them.  We focus on how to love yourself first and recognise what you deserve!

If you have ever based your self-worth on sex, recognition or attention of someone else and want to know how to grow and move past that, then tune into tomorrow’s episode for this, fun, serious and chaotic episode!  

Join myself for another solo episode as I share some relationship advice. Now you’re probably all thinking; “Phoenix you’ve never been in a relationship, what could you possibly have to offer?” - well have you ever had that single friend who’s never been in a relationship but who also always gives the best relationship advice?? Yes? well that’s me x 

Tune in tomorrow for a fun episode as I share advice on: stepping away from a relationship so that you can focus 110% on yourself, exiting toxic relationships, red flags, and strategies on self-care and setting boundaries! 

This is my first ever three person podcast and I had an absolute ball recording with two of my favourite people in the world. These two are no strangers to the podcast as they have both done an episode with me before, so be sure to check those out before tuning into this one! 

Join my self and returning guests Delphyne Burgess and Lachie Robinson as we discuss Florence Given's book ‘Women Don’t Owe You Pretty’. The three of us read this book recently and have come together to share our views and thoughts on different aspects of the book. I thought this would be an interesting episode for you guys as you’re getting three different perspectives, from three very different kinds of people on a range of topics.  

Make sure you tune in tomorrow for this fun, lighthearted episode! 

TW: there are discussions surrounding sexual assault that some listeners may find uncomfortable.  

Join myself and returning guest Grace Hyland, as we sit down and discuss many things surrounding the Transgender community. Grace answers many questions surrounding transgender representation, common questions asked by others and many more.  Grace shares her views and thoughts on many things in today's episode. I learnt a tremendous amount and can guarantee you will all learn something from today's episode. 

Make sure you check out last weeks episode with Grace as she shares all of her personal stories and her journey to living a life as her authentic self. 

Today is a very special day for myself as it, marks the day in which I came out, three years ago! So I thought in celebration of my 20th EPISODE!! As well as this being a very special day for myself, that I would take this opportunity to dive deeper into my story and speak about things I have never really spoken about on and off air. I know that I have done a coming out episode with my beautiful close friend Eliza. However, this episode shares a lot more things with you all than I previously have. Parts of this episode was very difficult for me to record as I have never really spoken properly of certain things and this was the first time properly vocalising some of these things.  
Have an amazing rest of the week and be sure to check out this weeks guest episode with the beautiful Grace Hyland!!   

Tune into this very special episode with new guest; the beautiful and amazing  Grace Hyland

As it is Trans Day of Visibility tomorrow I thought it was only fitting that this week’s episode focuses on Transgender people! Join the two of us, as Grace beautifully shares with us her journey through transitioning and the many obstacles in which she faced on the road to living her life, as her authentic self. 

I learnt a tremendous amount from Grace whilst recording this episode and I can most certainly guarantee you will as well! So don’t miss out!

Happy Tuesday Everyone! 

Today I am discussing Cultural Appropriation in today's episode. Discussion was sparked when images of upcoming contestant on Rupaul's Dragrace Australia, Scarlett Adams was posted online. The images depicted blackface, insensitive cultural depiction of Indigenous Australians and other racist features. I discuss my take on the difference between cultural appropriation and cultural appreciation.
