7. Luka McCabe insists that food should never be the enemy
40:20||Season 5, Ep. 7Luka McCabe is a realist when it comes to food. Sure, in an ideal world we'd all eat wholefoods 100% of the time, but the busy, expense-laden reality is far from it. On this ep, the author, midwife, business owner and mother gets frank about slinging meals on the table, squeezing in gym sessions, the art of making small, cost-efficient changes and the camping fails that haven't dampened her enthusiasm for The Great Outdoors.CREDITS: This podcast was hosted and produced by WH head of brand Scarlett Keddie with sound editing by Evan Lawrence.For more from Australian Women’s Health, find us on Instagram and visit our website.6.

And not only behind the stumps.On this ep, Alyssa Healy talks about leading from within, navigating grief, a sometimes-ships-in-the-night life with husband Mitchell Starc and the beautiful frustration of golf, among other things.CREDITS: This podcast was hosted and produced by WH head of brand Scarlett Keddie with sound editing by Evan Lawrence.For more from Australian Women’s Health, find us on Instagram and visit our website.5.

30:37|Here’s a not-so-fun stat that many of us may relate to: 69 per cent of women are currently stressed, according to a 2022 report by Liptember Foundation. That’s just one reason we’re excited about today’s podcast guest. Mind coach Poppy Delbridge is on a mission to help people ease stress and live their best, most joyful lives. As well as drawing on the likes of manifestation, she’s also an expert in tapping – a practice that involves physically tapping on certain areas of the body. You’ll hear more about that in this episode, and you can dig even deeper via Poppy’s new book ‘Tapping In: Manifest the life you want with the transformative power of tapping’. She even takes our managing editor Alex Davies through a short tapping exercise at the end of their chat.CREDITS: This podcast was hosted by WH managing editor Alex Davies and produced by WH editor-in-chief Lizza Gebilagin with additional sound editing by Jess Campbell.For more from Women’s Health Australia, find us on Instagram, visit our website or find the print and digital editions of the magazine.Francesca Hung | On Identity, Cold Showers And Finding Happiness In Your Own Skin
46:20|Before interviewing Chris Hemsworth on the red carpet, making history as the first woman of Asian descent to be crowned Miss Universe Australia, or becoming a beauty ambassador for Swisse, Francesca Hung struggled with her identity. For a long time, her mental health was affected by not feeling like she truly belonged, like she was in "no man's land" as she didn't look "typically Australian" while also being disconnected from her Asian heritage. It's a feeling many first-gen Aussies will relate to but one that's not often spoken about or the affect it's had on mental health. It's why she's sharing her story so openly. In this episode, Francesca talks about how she made peace with her identity, the impact of exercise (and cold showers) on her wellbeing and why true beauty and wellness comes from within.CREDITS: This podcast was hosted and produced by WH editor-in-chief Lizza Gebilagin with additional sound editing by Jess Campbell.For more from Women’s Health Australia, find us on Instagram, visit our website or find the print and digital editions of the magazine.
