Tina Arena began her music career at eight on Young Talent Time and became one of Australia’s top-selling artists, with over 10 million albums sold worldwide. Known for her straight-talking and passion, Tina shares her wisdom from decades in the music industry.

In this episode, Jess and Tina dive deep into her life and career, discussing the sense of isolation she felt as a strong woman with boundaries who wasn’t willing to play the ‘bullshit game,’ choosing instead to stay true to herself. Tina and Jess also explore the challenges of aging and why it’s so important to embrace and feel comfortable in our beauty and wisdom. Wait until you hear which surprising Young Talent Time cast member still attends every one of Tina’s shows!"
