The Briefing Headlines April 30

The five-minute fix for trauma

Thursday Headlines: 
China to resume jet fuel exports to Australia
Pauline Hanson billed taxpayers for multiple flights to fundraisers
Family of missing Alice Springs girl say they’re ‘desperate’ for her return
Australia’s meth use soars to record highs

Deep Dive: A new toolkit targeting 'uniquely female' mental health challenges is being put to the test - addressing burnout, caregiving, stigma and coercive control, where traditional approaches haven't kept pace. 

Launched by Smiling Mind in partnership with the Sisterhood Foundation, the free Women and Girls Mental Fitness Hub focuses on building everyday resilience and prevention, and it's already showing promising results. 

In this episode of The Briefing, Helen Smith is joined by Michele, a psychologist, mother, carer and survivor of coercive control, who shares how the program has helped reshape her daily life.
