This summer we're curating your 456 playlist listening to bring you some of our favourite interviews from MID and No Filter.

Melinda French Gates knows everyone wants to talk about her divorce.

She gets it, and she's covered it her new book, Next Day, about handling life's transitions. But also, what she wants to talk about is change. How we pick ourselves up after those big moments that knock us off course, whether it's the end of a relationship, losing a job, becoming a parent, kids leaving home, losing someone or a a big career shift. Transitions, she knows, are moments of both struggle and opportunity.

French-Gates is the computer scientist, philanthropist and advocate who, along with her former husband, Bill Gates, founded the Gates Foundation, raising and donating billions of dollars to improve health outcomes for some of the most vulnerable communities in the world.

After her separation, French-Gates established her own philanthropic organisation, Pivotal, to advance issues that affect women and girls.

In this episode of MID she talks about how to tap into that inner whisper that becomes a roar, what her life looks like post-divorce and what she wants everyone to know about moving on 'The Next Day'.

You can buy Melinda French Gates' book here.
