This week, I’m joined by Chrissy, a resilient single mum of two from Australia. In this episode, Chrissy gets real about her journey through heartbreak, healing, and hope. She opens up about:

  • Meeting her ex-partner and how things began
  • Losing herself in the relationship, especially after a traumatic birth and the impact of her ex’s behaviour
  • Navigating postnatal depression, ADHD, and the unique challenges of having her second baby during Covid, feeling completely trapped
  • The brave decision to separate, the realities of co-parenting, and what it took to start again
  • Why supportive community, and knowing you’re not alone, makes all the difference
  • Her inspiring perspective on designing the life you truly want, even after the storm

Chrissy’s story is proof that there’s so much strength in starting over. Tune in for practical insights and a reminder that the right support can change everything.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
