122 | What if your Vulva was a work of art? with Courtney Landy, Vulva Caster & Founder of Bloom by Courtney (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if your vulva was a work of art? Not something to hide, compare, criticise or change, but something completely unique to you, worthy of being seen exactly as it is. In this episode I’m joined by Courtney Landy, founder of Bloom by Courtney, who creates plaster casts of vulvas as unique pieces of art. Courtney and I met at Viva La Vulva, an event created by Vulva Sisters Australia to celebrate vulvas, women’s bodies and vulval health through art, education and conversation. We attempted a qu
121 | Viva La Vulva: Behind the Scenes at a Celebration of Vulvas, Awareness & Advocacy by Vulva Sisters Australia (opens the original)
Read excerpt
How do you turn the shit situation of vulvar cancer into a celebration of body awareness and reclamation? You bring people together to talk, laugh, create, learn, raise awareness, raise money... and say the word vulva a whole lot more. And you call it Viva La Vulva . In this special episode of TURNED ON, I take you behind the scenes at the first Viva La Vulva event, created by Vulva Sisters Australia , held on Saturday 12 September during Gynaecological Cancer Awareness Month and supporting Rare
120 | From Holding On to Letting Go: Your Pelvic Floor in Midlife, with Lisa Fitzpatrick, Female Pelvic & Sexual Health Educator, Physiotherapist, & Author of Sexy Menopause (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if pelvic health is far more central to our overall wellbeing than we’ve ever been told? And why aren’t we being told that sex can be good for our pelvic health too?

And if we haven’t been listening to our bodies or connecting with our pelvis, menopause and midlife have a way of getting our attention. In this episode, I’m joined by pelvic and sexual healt

Read excerpt
We all know about adolescence. And we’re finally talking more openly about menopause. But there’s another enormous life transition many of us have lived through without even knowing it had a name. Matrescence. The becoming of a mother. In this episode, I’m joined by Australian indie folk artist, podcaster, filmmaker and matrescence activist Claire Tonti for a conversation about this life transition and the profound impact it can have on our bodies, brains and identities. Claire shares her own ex
118 | The Gifts Hidden in Hard Times, with Marlo Woods, Massage therapist, Mental Health Advocate, & Co-Founder of Vulva Sisters Australia (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if the hardest things you live through don't break you, but become gifts you could never have imagined? We spend so much of our lives trying to avoid pain. We numb it. Push through it. Tell ourselves we'll start living once things get easier. But what if the opposite is true? In this heartfelt conversation, my oldest friend, Marlo Woods , shares how some of life's hardest moments became the catalyst for discovering joy, deeper purpose, and a profound appreciation for simply being alive.
