Lauren Jackson is the GOAT in Australian women's basketball. Her last Olympic games was in 2012 and she retired from the sport in 2016 after a routine leg wax while recovering from an ACL injury went bad. 

Then, in 2022, aged 41, she made a comeback to the sport and now at 43 she is part of the team who qualified for the Paris 2024 Olympics. 

In the third episode of this special No Filter mini-series, Lauren talks to guest host Libby Trickett about how guilty she feels leaving her two young boys to travel for work and what she puts her body through every day. And is she going to Paris?

What would you do if your husband cheated? And what if you found out about it at the same time the whole world did. That’s what happened to Nia. She found out her husband, Sam, had been unfaithful to her when all the data from the Ashley Madison website was leaked in one of the largest data breaches ever.

Sam & Nia participated in a documentary about Ashley Madison on Netflix - but in this episode of No Filter, they share parts of their story with Mia that they haven’t shared before.It’s a raw, honest conversation with a couple who have been through so much and a really intimate look at the complexities of infidelity and of forgiveness.

Sam & Nia’s Memoir: Live In Truth is available here.  

Here’s a link to their YouTube channel.

Sam & Nia: The Couple Who Survived The Ashley Madison Cheating Scandal

Subscribe to Mamamia

Some friendships have everything a romantic relationship has, they’re just as intense but without the sex. Why aren't they seen as equally important?

In this episode of No Filter, Rhaina Cohen is asking: what if our friends are our soulmates? And she shares some powerful friendship stories, from those who have chosen each other in all different ways, like co-parenting or co-owning a home. While unconventional, is it really that strange? 

Rhaina Cohen's book The Other Significant Others: Reimagining Life with Friendship at the Center is available here.

What If Your Best Friend Was Your Soulmate?

Subscribe to Mamamia

When Remington and his husband Alain welcomed three children into their home 18 months ago, as foster parents, they knew their lives would never be the same. What they didn't know is how long their children would stay.

In Australia, thousands of children find themselves in foster care for various reasons: neglect, abuse, trauma or simply their biological parents can't afford to raise them.

Remington Meyer talks to Mia Freedman in this No Filter episode about the deeply emotional journey of bringing kids into their lives and what it's like shifting your world from just a quiet couple to a vibrant house of five. 
And he answers the question: how do you open your heart knowing you might have to say goodbye?

If you’re interested in being a foster carer, please contact Anglicare Southern Queensland via their website or call 1300 000 828 or head to Barnardos Australia.
