Something To Talk About podcast: Zoe Marshall on domestic violence, manifestation and the NRL

Almost 20 years ago, writer and media personality Zoe Marshall went through such a deeply traumatic series of experiences that she considered ending her own life.

Almost 20 years ago, writer and media personality Zoe Marshall went through such a deeply traumatic series of experiences – the death of her mother, a family rift and a physically and psychologically abusive relationship – that she considered ending her own life. 

But then, she leaned into manifestation, or as she calls it, co-creation - and her life took a turn that was almost impossible to believe. In 2024, Zoe has several successful businesses under her belt. She’s happily married to former NRL player and now coach Benji Marshall, the mother of two beautiful children, and she’s on the brink of a new chapter. 

On this episode of Something To Talk About, Zoe is very candid about what she calls her “rock bottom”, addressed the intense speculation that has surrounded her husband’s strict boundaries between his work and his role as a father and husband and she spoke to Australia’s ongoing domestic violence crisis, as a victim survivor herself.

If you have experienced or are at risk of family violence, you can call the national counselling service1800RESPECT.

Something To Talk About podcast: Bianca Dye on dating in her fifties

Bianca joined host Sarrah Le Marquand in the Something To Talk About studio for a frank and funny conversation.

Former radio host Bianca Dye is no stranger to tackling taboos and staring down stigma - after all, she’s been doing it since back when feminism was a dirty word, particularly in the then-male-dominated world of radio. 

But her new era - a chapter of her life she describes as Fifty, Sacked and Single - is seeing her having to stare down even more stereotypes as she navigates mental health, unemployment and the dating pool as a woman in her 50s. 

There was never a dull moment when Bianca joined host Sarrah Le Marquand in the Something To Talk About studio for a frank and funny conversation about her forays into the online search for romance, why “ghosting is for cowards”, the joy she finds in seeing a new generation of young women be unapologetically outspoken - and what happened when she recently sent a seven-minute voice message to a man ahead of their first date. 

Find out more about Bianca being ‘Fifty, Sacked and Single' on her Instagram accounts @biancadye and @anxietyfree

Something To Talk About: Amber Petty on violence against women

Although her public persona may have first come about because of a royal wedding, Amber tells Something To Talk About that she does not believe in fairytales.

Amber Petty was first catapulted into the spotlight in the most unusual of circumstances, by standing alongside her best friend, Mary Donaldson, at her wedding to the Crown Prince of Denmark in 2004. 

Becoming known as the “royal bridesmaid”, Amber Petty has experienced many highs and lows during her career in the radio and media in the 20 years since.

Today, she is using her public platform to speak up about something very difficult - but also very important. And that is a reminder of how the much needed and long overdue national conversation currently taking place in Australia regarding violence against women can inadvertently cause re-traumatization among victim-survivors.

As a victim-survivor of domestic violence within two past relationships, Amber sits down with host Sarrah Le Marquand to not only share her own harrowing story, but to speak up for the many women around the country who may be secretly struggling with trauma of their own. 

Although her public persona may have first come about because of a royal wedding, Amber tells Something To Talk About that she does not believe in fairytales.

If you have experienced or are at risk of family violence, you can call the national counselling service1800RESPECT.

You can find out more from Amber Petty, including purchase details for her book, via her Instagram handle @missamberpetty.

You can read Amber’s column in Stellar online at Stellarmag.com.au or pick up a copy inside The Sunday Telegraph (NSW), Sunday Herald Sun (VIC), The Sunday Mail (QLD) and Sunday Mail (SA).
