Just a heads up that this episode briefly discusses suicide and childhood abuse. If you're struggling you can always call Lifeline on 13 11 14.
On a random Wednesday 22 years ago, Dr Dain Heer gave up all hope. He surrendered and gave himself an expiration date - if something didn't rapidly change in 6 months, he was going to end his life. After living with years of abuse as a child, Dain always knew there was a different possibility, he just hadn't quite figured out how to access it. In this episode Dain shares his own experience in turning his life around in a remarkable and inspiring way - something we can all tap into. He shares tools we can implement right now to change our own trajectory.
Dain dives deep into; Why you actually can't (and shouldn't) fake it until you make it and how this is literally lying to yourself - because subconsciously you know it not to be true What is access consciousness - the tool that turned his life around in 1 hour and 15 minutes Why people are always greater than they think they are How to find the true you What exactly happened in that 1 hour 15min session How to embrace and not resist the down times Why comparison is a trap and leaves us in a perpetual state of judgement How we can parent our children in a way that is without judgment to allow our children to grow and thrive By treating our children as aware beings they can choose what they want and how to create their own lives How we can begin to love ourselves right now
Two tools Dain shares:
How to change your vibe: Since we pick up 98% of our thoughts from other people, we must ask ourselves "who does this (thought) belong to?" and return to sender.
How to change upset feelings: Take it as "an interesting point of view - I have this point of view." This helps us take a step back and avoid the avoidance. You can listen to Dain explain it in detail in the last 5 minutes of the episode.

Research psychologist Dr Sarah Hill has always had a passion for investigating attraction and sex hormones.

In this episode Sarah shares her latest mind blowing findings in this area we know very little about.
Sarah shares in detail; Her own personal story and the realisation that the world felt a very different (and better place) to her when she stopped taking birth control Whether pheromones are real How this further prompted her research into this area where there is very little research currently done What The Birth Control Pill does to our attraction towards another partner If women are attracted to different men whilst on birth control compared to when they are not on birth control If birth control may be a contributing factor (one of many) to low fertility rates due to incompatible attraction How increased use of dating apps may be affecting attraction due to the inability to sense/smell a partner How we use sex hormones in our brain for emotion signalling and how women on the pill have less of this due to flatlining hormones How the pill may lower performance Any benefits of taking the pill including drug users and how it has a positive impact on conditions like anxiety and depression

We're not actually sure how a vagina is supposed to look and what qualifies it to be normal but our incredible holistic gynaecologist, Dr Shawn Tassone is making a stance - that women shouldn't feel pressure for it to look a certain way. Host Cecelia Ramsdale and Nat Kringoudis discuss a variety of topics in this episode, from fibroids, to hormone testing and how your doctor has more power over influencing your health that you might think.

Is contraception a choice or a treatment? Many women don't choose to be on contraception - they are told its the only option to treat gynaecological issues. Host Cecelia Ramsdale and Nat Kringoudis discuss the truths of using contraceptions like the Pill and the Mirena and how your hormone fix may be far simpler to fix than you think. After all, treating the root cause rather than merely managing symptoms is a viable long-term approach that all women deserve to consider.
