How does somebody go from cleaning bed pans and administering fluids to self publishing a cookbook with a penis glossary? Shannon Kelly-White is a rare, vulgar blemish in the cookbook world. Or, the world in general. She is arguably one of the funniest people on the internet and as I've now experienced, also in real life.

In this episode we chat all things self publishing, self worth and self deprecating humour. This episode is NOT one to be missed (but also, how dare you miss any episode).

If you've been living under a rock and don't know where to find Shannon you can follow her at @shannonskitchenaustralia or check out her website www.shannonkellywhite.com

Mikki (or Mikaela to her Grandparents and maybe three other people) is a wildly famous writer. She travels the world with nothing but her 4b pencil (she's a commitment-phobe) and a pair of Havaianas. She writes inspiring poetry on the walls of famous streets, spreading her message of why you should never mix peppermint with genitals. 

She's also lying to you.

In reality she spends her time telling her one year old to "Stop being an asshole just because you have nice eyebrows". Sometimes Mikki talks about her feelings. Mostly she just swears and gives unsolicited advice. Either way nobody asked her anything and yet here she is with her own podcast.

Diet and Wellness Culture with Elle Sweetman

On this week’s podcast I have a chat with the inspiring Danielle Reed, host of the Mummy Republic podcast. At her 20-week pregnancy scan, Dannii was told that something was wrong. An expecting parent’s worst nightmare became her reality. Her pregnancy, birth, delivery and the life of her baby was not going to be straightforward. Although she kept the details from the world, she shared her emotional journey with us. How do you deal with the anxiety that comes with a high-risk pregnancy? How do you navigate it? What’s involved? How do you stay sane?

We don’t get to choose what happens to us in this life, but we do get to choose how we react. Dannii and I talk about the emotions and feelings that surround a high-risk pregnancy.

What do you do when trauma strikes? How do you respond?

I’m beyond happy to announce that the beautiful Archer Fox made his way into the world on the 28th of February! To read about Archer’s condition you can check out Dannii’s Instagram at @mummyrepublic. And if you’re obsessed with the Please, Ask Mikki podcast then I guarantee you will feel the same about the Mummy Republic podcast!

Collaboration over competition, always.  We’re just over here fixing eachothers crowns.

Navigating Trauma (with the Mummy Republic)

TRIGGER WARNING: For anybody who has been a victim of DFV

So far this year in Australia nine women have been murdered by a man they loved.

The statistics say that in Australia one woman a weekis murdered by a man due to a domestic violence related incident.

So far we’ve lost nine women.

And we’re only seven weeks into the year.

Jackie Lachmund, CEO of Australia’s CEO Challenge joins me on the Please, Ask Mikki podcast to educate us on everything Domestic Family Violence. As a survivor herself, Jackie is so damn passionate about educating people about DFV. Australia’s CEO Challenge is a non-for-profit organisation that has been partnering with Australian businesses since 2001 to raise awareness, provide training and teach workplaces to recognise the signs of DFV and respond appropriately.

Jackie is an absolute wealth of knowledge. I finished recording this episode and just cried for an hour. This issue is so dear to so many women’s hearts. Most of us have lived in fear of the man we loved at one point in our lives. Something needs to be done.

You can check out all of the amazing things that Jackie and her organisation are doing at https://australiasceochallenge.org/

If you or somebody you know is in a DFV situation and looking for help, call 1800RESPECT for assistance.
