All is... Unwell?

Good morning! Or arvo! Or night! We’re rambling! Today on the show, we bring you the uplifting Hugh van Cuylenburg. For those unaware, Hugh is the school teacher turned mental health pioneer behind The Resilience Project - an organisation that works with schools, sports clubs, and businesses to provide evidence-based, positive mental health strategies to build resilience and happiness. In our interview with Hugh, we talk about it all: From the pivotal trip to Northern India that changed his life, to the impact his sister’s battle with Anorexia Nervosa had on his perspective. Just a quick note: this episode covers issues around disordered eating and might be triggering for some listeners. Thank you so much to James Cosmetics for making this episode of Shameless possible.

Today’s the day! The day we introduce you to our very first, very special In Isolation episode. On the show this week, we bring you the delightful Brooke Boney. Brooke is a Gamilaroi woman who grew up in Muswellbrook, NSW, and is currently an entertainment reporter on The Today Show. You’ll likely be familiar with her work before that too, as a journalist on NITV, the ABC, and Triple J. In our interview with Brooke, we cover everything: From what she thought her year was going to look like to how she’s coping in these strange times. As well as that, Brooke also touches on how she really hopes - when the curtain lifts from all the chaos - that she’ll care a little less about what people think of her. Thank you so much to ANZ for making this episode of Shameless possible. Head to their website here to find out more. If you’d like to see more from Brooke, which you no doubt 1000% do, follow her on Instagram at @boneybrooke. As for us? Here are all the links your heart desires! Our Insta profile.

A big, caps-locked HELLLLOOOO to you, Shameless besties! On today’s show: Mason Disick is the Instagram and Tik Tok deviant we didn't know we needed right now.

This week, Mich recommended you all download Tik Tok and do this TV character personality test (Link pls Mich xxx).
