Today, you’re going to hear a conversation about vulvas. And it’s not something we speak about often. But our guest today has made a living out of photographing them.

Ellie Sedgwick is a body-positive, nude photographer who founded Comfortable In My Skin, a movement empowering people to love the skin they’re in. But, Ellie hasn’t always felt comfortable with her own vulva - she’s gone from being scared to wear swimmers… to considering labiaplasty… to driving around the country to photograph other women’s vulvas for her book, ‘Flip Through My Flaps’.

Listen to the second part of this interview here.

With thanks to Ellie Sedgwick. Follow her at Comfortable In My Skin here.

[Part 1 of 2] Bethany Joy Lenz has been in two cults.

The first is the cult-classic TV series, One Tree Hill, where she played the role of Haley for ten years, alongside cast members Sophia Bush and Chad Michael Murray.

Yet, what few people knew is that the entire time she was on the iconic show, she was in another kind of cult - the dangerous, isolating, manipulative kind.

In this Australian exclusive, she shares her story with Mia Freedman and explains how she found herself in a cult to begin with, what it cost her - literally and figuratively - and what finally helped her find the courage to leave.

Bethany Joy Lenz has written an incredible memoir about her experience, Dinner For Vampires - you can find it here.

You can hear part two of Mia's conversation here.

Bethany Joy Lenz Was On A Hit TV Show And In A Cult At The Same Time (Part 1)

We bring you an episode of CANCELLED, which is all about Ballerina Farm. 

Today we are diving into the world of ‘Trad Wives’ and more specifically the world of Ballerina Farm which is both a brand and a woman. Hannah Neeleman is a mumfluencer, a mother of eight children and has amassed a huge 10 million followers on Instagram who follow her literally churning butter and collecting eggs from her chickens. Seems wholesome right? Wrong (kinda).

Her charges include competing in a beauty pageant just two weeks postpartum, pretending to be poor but owning a $30,000 stove and a birthday present which is the stuff of nightmares (but that was technically her husband’s fault). We unpack all.

Plus, more of your lazy gewl stories.

Extra: Ballerina Farm Gets 'Cancelled'

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/d8100350-5fd1-43d2-8a7f-b21200452f70/transcript

Trad Wives like Hannah Neeleman and her Ballerina Farm empire have captured our imagination - and divided our opinions.

Trad Wives are an Instagram phenomenon using highly-produced content to promote traditional family values - specifically, the idea that women would be happier if they stayed home and served their husbands and children, trading in a life of career-focused grind culture for a life of content domesticity - and nobody sells this idea better than Hannah Neeleman.

Megan Agnew is a journalist for the Times UK and she managed to spend a day with Hannah, her husband Daniel and their eight children on the notoriously hard to penetrate Ballerina Farm - she saw behind the scenes…and what she saw is very different than what we see on Instagram.

Megan Agnew’s article went viral and sparked a million think pieces and spurred some very strong reactions…including from the Neelemans themselves.

So what is behind the Trad Wife movement - and is it just harmless entrepreneurship, or is there a darker, more serious ideology behind it?

You can follow Megan Agnew here.

You can listen to our episode with Tia Levings - who barely escaped her trad wife life, here.

Young love. Remember that?! Meeting someone at your part time hospo job where you’re together every night, you start making eyes at each other and one thing leads to another - soon, you’re spending the night at their family home and having dinner with their parents. Well that’s exactly how Emily met Josh.

And when you meet so young, it really only goes one of two ways. You either grow up and apart, or you grow together. Like Emily and Josh. After seven years, they knew each other like the back of their own hands and trusted each other implicitly. At not even 30 years old, life was only just beginning. Or was it more a case of it being the beginning of the end?

[Part 1 of 2] This episode is going to help you have better relationships - and understand the bad ones you’ve had in the past - or might still be having.

Because the origin of every relationship we have is our attachment style, and knowing what yours is and how that affects the way you interact with people and the romantic partners you choose can be a game-changer.

Mia talks to clinical psychologist and attachment theory expert, Dr. Morgan Anderson, about all things attachment styles and so much more, like: what exactly is the “ick”, what is breadcrumbing, and why do we tend to be attracted to people who may not be so good for us.

You can hear part two of Mia's conversation here.

Sex, The Ick & Attachment Styles (Part 1)

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/224bcbd6-14ea-4ebd-9738-b206000b39fb/transcript

Sometimes, a story can save a life. This is one of those stories.

Anna Martin is a recovering gambling addict who, as you’ll hear, almost lost her life to this insidious industry.

Anna gambled in the shadows. She didn’t want anyone to know about her gambling habits, or the risks she was taking, or just how bad it got…to the point where she almost lost her life.

Shame and secrecy are killers. And gambling is shrouded in shame and secrecy. So it’s no small thing for Anna to share her story with No Filter.

Anna has turned her experience into action to help others through the Untangled Project - you can find out more about them here: Instagram: @theuntangleprojectaus

If you or someone you know needs help - the following organisations are a good place to start: GHLEE (Gambling Harm Lived Experience Experts)

If you would like more information about research into the current state of gambling in Australia including how gambling is affecting women today, start here: The Grattan report: how Australia should prevent gambling harm https://grattan.edu.au/report/a-better-bet-how-australia-should-prevent-gambling-harm/

Sometimes, a story can save a life. This is one of those stories.
Anna Martin is a recovering gambling addict who, as you’ll hear, almost lost her life to this insidious industry.
Anna gambled in the shadows. She didn’t want anyone to know about her gambling habits, or the risks she was taking, or just how bad it got…to the point where she almost lost her life.
Shame and secrecy are killers. And gambling is shrouded in shame and secrecy. So it’s no small thing for Anna to share her story with No Filter.
Anna has turned her experience into action to help others through the Untangled Project - you can find out more about them here: Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/theuntangleprojectaus/">@theuntangleprojectaus</a>
If you or someone you know needs help - the following organisations are a good place to start: <a href="https://www.ghlee.org/">GHLEE</a> (Gambling Harm Lived Experience Experts)
If you would like more information about research into the current state of gambling in Australia including how gambling is affecting women today, start here: The Grattan report: how Australia should prevent gambling harm <a href="https://grattan.edu.au/report/a-better-bet-how-australia-should-prevent-gambling-harm/">https://grattan.edu.au/report/a-better-bet-how-australia-should-prevent-gambling-harm/</a>

Ada Nicodemou Is In Love Again. Her Way.

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/e01b3b52-b72a-4f54-87a4-b1f70182acc6/transcript

You can hear the second half of Mia's conversation with Suzanne here.

When Suzanne Heywood and her little brother were told by their parents that they’d be leaving the UK, leaving school, leaving their friends and their dog to go and sail around the world for three years…Suzanne had her doubts - but like so many little girls, she trusted her father - he was her hero.

But as you’ll hear in this captivating story, there is a fine line between adventure and survival. Between an extended family holiday and being held captive…by your parents.

What was supposed to be a three year journey turned into a ten year odyssey where Suzanne was severely injured, put in very unsafe environments as a teenage girl, and ultimately abandoned.

This story is kind of like a Greek Myth or an Action-Adventure complete with shipwrecks and desert islands…but for Suzanne, it was her life. And it’s her story. Listen now only on No Filter with Mia Freedman.

You can find Suzanne’s memoir here.

And, follow her on social media here.
