Australian journalist Narelda Jacobs has spent her entire professional life reporting stories, but only now – in her 40s – has she had the confidence and opportunities to speak her own personal truths in the media. And, in the week she co-hosts SBS’s coverage of the Sydney Mardi Gras for the third time, Narelda tells her story for FORTY.

Raised by fundamentalist Christian parents and the youngest of five daughters, Narelda was a teenage mother and wife by 19. However, at 21 – after finally coming to terms with her true self – Narelda told her devoutly religious mother she was gay, and what followed has been more than two decades of learning how to make peace with family members who refuse to accept her sexuality.

But this is also a tale of finding freedom in the middle years after years of child-rearing, climbing death-defying mountains, moving out of comfort zones (literally!)… and meeting true love at the pub at 42 with a good ol’ fashioned game of hide and seek.

So, what happens when you refuse to hide who you are?

We find out in FORTY.

Whether you read her column every Sunday over a cup of tea or watch her on your TV screen, Angela Mollard’s gentle words and familiar face are a weekly staple for many. To celebrate her 53rd birthday, Angela made like Gwyneth Paltrow and took her kit off for a bare-all photoshoot. Why? Angela prefers the question “why not?”, because according to her, adventures aren’t reserved for the young. This is just one of many lessons we learned from our chat with Ang, whose life reads like a choose-your-own-adventure; from turning down career opportunities in favour of a job she loves, to divorcing amicably, to raising teen girls, and building a house just for her. When it comes to decision-making, Angela is a woman of action, fuelled by a confidence and assuredness she’s found in her middle years.

So, what happens when you “decide rather than slide”?

Fiona O’Loughlin is Australian comedy royalty; a woman whose sense of humour and storytelling opened up an entirely new career in the late-90s for the mother-of-five from Alice Springs. However, by her own admission, it was a career that nearly killed her following a well-documented battle with alcoholism.

In this incredibly raw episode of FORTY, Fiona reveals a recent diagnosis has turned her world upside down. It’s been a ‘seismic shift’ for the stories she has told herself; from the little seven-year-old girl who struggled with times tables, to the wife who developed coping mechanisms during tricky conversations, to the public figure who suffered through the disease that is addiction. Only now - in her ‘third chapter’ of life - has Fiona found overwhelming levels of both freedom and relief to sort through the past and find layers of forgiveness.

So, what happens when you learn something that changes everything?

At 24, former model and award-winning advertising gal Lisa Cox had a brain haemorrhage and died. Thankfully, she was brought back to life, but the stroke left its impact and turned her life upside down in an instant. Lisa had to navigate her ‘new normal’; a wheelchair, amputations, chronic pain, heart surgery and more…including learning to write again. And write she does!

Now 40, author and marketing pro Lisa is all about changing the way physical disability is represented in mainstream pop culture. She discusses everything from how frustratingly often her husband is mistaken for her carer, to being ‘the token disabled friend’, fashion inclusivity, things not to say to a person with physical limitations…and just how much she LOVES her life.

So, what happens when life as you knew it changes in an instant?
