Trigger Warning // This episode discuss issues around bullying. If this brings up any triggers for you, we have included support and links in the show notes. 

This week with sit down with the one and only Nadia Fairfax-Wayne. Fun, enigmatic, and vivacious - Nadia isn't your average 'influencer.' Being at the forefront of the Australian fashion industry, Nadia is more like a small publishing house working with some of the most iconic brands in marketing, content creation, copy, and ultimately, selling products she truly believes in. There is so much more to Nadia than meets the eye and she delves deep into being bullied, the darker side of the industry, and ultimately, the resilience she has built from these experiences. We hope you enjoy a side of Nadia you may not have seen before.

KOLIDE ADVICE:

Nadia:

TRIGGER WARNING // This weeks episode comes with a trigger warning that we will be dealing with issues about eating disorders, trauma, depression and anxiety. If this brings up any triggers for you, we have included support and links in the show notes. 

This week we sit down with the beautiful Anthea Porter who has undergone an immense personal transformation over the past 12 months. On paper, Anthea had the life one would typically aspire to - an incredible career, a beautiful home, an amazing husband and a baby on the way. However, after living in Amsterdam for five years, her partner got Covid before any vaccinations existed and following a traumatic they decided to move back to Australia with their newborn Tavi. What happened next was a bout of post-partum depression, unreconciled childhood trauma, a lack of career fulfilment and a prevailing sense of emptiness. There began a year-long therapy journey, immense self-reflection and ultimately 'doing the work.'

Anthea is vulnerable, brave and courageous, and this episode truly shone a light on the way we feel pressured to adhere to societal stereotypes of what it means to be successful without considering our own happiness. There are so many "aha" moments in our chat with Anthea, and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
