As the woman who’s been dubbed “breakfast TV’s greatest survivor”, Natalie Barr has woken up with the nation for more than two decades — all while building a life with her husband and raising two sons. Yet she insists she’s far more interested in what’s coming up on next week’s Sunrise than in celebrating milestones or reflecting on just how far she’s come.

In this episode, Nat takes a rare moment to look back — on the highs and lows of a stable, successful marriage and a long-running media career, and on how she’s adjusting to life as an empty nester. Plus, she opens up on the unique partnership she’s built with her work husband, Matt Shirvington - and shares an update on a few of her former on-air co-hosts including David Koch and Samantha Armytage.

Watch the full episode with Nat here. 

You can see Nat weekdays on Sunrise on the Seven Network.

When Glennon Doyle was diagnosed with anorexia in her 40s, her wife Abby was grieving the sudden death of her brother, and her sister Amanda had just been diagnosed with breast cancer. It was a year that brought all three of them to their knees — and became the unlikely foundation for their new book, We Can Do Hard Things. In this episode, Glennon opens up about what it means to keep showing up when the people you usually rely on are struggling, too.

We talk about the power of friendship, the myth of having it all together, and the moment Glennon stopped hiding her illness — even on the red carpet. She reflects on visibility, activism, and why the most honest people often feel like the biggest messes. And for the first time, Glennon reveals how she felt when she saw Ivanka Trump holding a copy of her book Untamed in an Instagram post. Raw, wise and unexpectedly funny – just like this conversation is a reminder that none of us are doing this alone.

Glennon’s new book We Can Do Hard Things is available here.

This week, Sarrah sits down with Alex Cullen for his first interview since the controversial “Lambo guy” incident that resulted in his departure from Today and Nine Network — as he exclusively reveals his plans for the future.

In January, after he took up an offer from Melbourne-based billionaire Adrian Portelli, Alex found himself in the middle of a media storm that sparked national headlines.

Now, in a raw and reflective conversation, he opens up about the personal and professional fallout, the toll it took on his mental health, and how close he came to walking away from the industry altogether. He talks about starting over — with a big move to Melbourne for him and his family, a new radio role on The Christian O’Connell Show, and in a Stellar exclusive, the announcement of his return to TV with Seven News. This is a story about public fallout, private resilience, and what it takes to start again… when the whole country is watching.

Alex begins tomorrow on The Christian O'Connell Show weekdays from 6am and weeknights from 7PM on GOLD104.3

It’s easy to be sceptical about reality TV romances. But sometimes, they just work. Take Laura Byrne and Matty J, who met and fell in love on The Bachelor Australia in 2017 – and are now one of the country’s most popular couples. In this episode of Something To Talk About, Laura and Matty sit down just weeks out from welcoming their third child to discuss – with humour, honesty and, yes, a bit of exhaustion – how they are revamping traditional gender roles as they raise their young family.

Laura explains what it’s like being the primary breadwinner, and Matty opens up about modern fatherhood and – with a third daughter on the way – the reality that he may never raise the son he always envisaged he would have. From baby name slip-ups to beach house renos, this is a surprisingly moving conversation with two people who are doing marriage and family their own way.

Rebecca Judd is sick of being gaslit, and she knows you are too.

In this episode of Something To Talk About, the entrepreneur and mum-of-four sits down with Sarrah Le Marquand to talk about her new beauty and wellness podcast Vain-ish, co-hosted with her best friend Jess Roberts.

Australia’s biggest beauty mogul, Shelley  Sullivan, has built three powerhouse businesses from the ground up. At just 21, she launched a boutique modelling agency. While working with models, Shelley spotted beauty fails like DIY lash-curling burns and patchy self‑tans – which led to her first beauty innovation: a heated lash curler, then “tan‑in‑a‑can”, and the birth of her first brand, ModelCo.

In 2016, Shelley targeted another gap: luxe-looking beauty at mass-market prices. MCoBeauty launched with 12 products, scaled to hundreds, and earlier this year was sold in a deal valuing the company at  $1 billion.

In this episode of Something To Talk About, Shelley opens up about building – and exiting – a billion-dollar beauty empire, trusting her instincts amid doubt, and life after the headlines.

This week on Something To Talk About, Laura Henshaw joins Sarrah Le Marquand for a powerful and deeply personal conversation, as she celebrates and talks about her just-announced pregnancy. It was, as Laura says, “a complete shock” that came after a year of questioning whether motherhood was even right for her. 

Today, Laura reflects on the fears she worked through as she grappled with whether becoming a parent would mean losing her sense of identity, the emotional moment she shared the news with her business partner Steph Claire Smith, and the unsolicited commentary she’s received about her body along the way. Plus, Laura speaks out on the rise of “manosphere” content online and why she felt compelled to challenge a podcaster who she believes was promoting outdated gender roles – a decision that would take her viral and spark a national conversation. 

Laura also discusses her new KicPod miniseries Am I Equal?, which explores the importance of informed conversations about finances, power, and partnership in modern relationships.

Find the KicPod miniseries Am I Equal? wherever you get your podcasts. For more from Laura Henshaw, visit www.kicapp.com
