Hi, everyone! 

Today, we sit down with Mia Freedman, the co-founder of media juggernaut Mamamia. Mia likely needs no introduction; she’s taken her knack for knowing women—who they are and what they want—and turned it into an empire.

In today’s conversation, Mia speaks about her life outside of running Mamamia. She shares her need for social rest, the rule that helps her recharge after the intense demands of leading a business, the relic that reminds her of a deep loss she holds close to her heart—and the moment she was diagnosed with ADHD later on in life.

Just a note before you listen: this chat touches on miscarriage. Help and support is available via SANDS, on 1800 308 307.
