It’s that time of the year again!  Each year on the show, I do a wrap of both my personal and business highs and lows.

2022 was a year that was very kind to me, and which brought me growth and depth in pretty much every area of my life.  

In this episode I talk through the highs and lows of love, life, health and family this year.  

Expect a few tears, some over-sharing and lessons passed on.  Oh, and I also share some pretty big news on what’s happening in 2023!  

Thank you so much for being a part of the show this year – I really appreciate you being here.  

These end-of-year episodes will be my last for a while on The Lorraine Murphy Show as I’m launching the Bold Darling Podcast in January 2023, and that will be my main focus for podcasting next year.  See you over there!

My Personal Highs & Lows Of 2022

A bit of a different episode this week… I’m getting my beauty editor on!

Several times a week, I get asked the same question on Instagram: “What are you doing with your skin? It’s glowing!”

As someone who has battled my skin for years (and had a 6-year career in beauty PR), this question entertains me - but I also need to answer it properly.  Hence this week’s solo episode.

I share the skin concerns that I struggle with, and the ten steps I’ve taken to get my glow on in recent years.  My skin this year is A Big Goal, so it’s action stations on this front!

I cover:
My dream London beauty job
The monthly non-negotiable that I’ve committed to this year
The mistake that a lot of women make with their skincare regime
The exact brands and products I use
How I’ve recently found a wonder product that has transformed my skin even more
The supermarket product that sorted a skincare niggle recently
The makeup that has rocked my world - and it’s clean!
The supplements I take for my skin

I hope you enjoy this step into my beauty world - let me know if you’d like more episodes like this!

In this episode I also mention:
You can get a free (and signed!) copy of my Step Into You book here: lorrainemurphy.com.au/siy-book

How I Glowed Up My Skin

Alcohol seems to walk hand in hand for the modern experience as a woman - I’ve experienced this myself, with my friends, and with my mentees.  Alcohol in our society is seen as the cure-all: it helps relieve stress, is a way to celebrate, and helps us connect with others.  But what about the downsides?

Sarah Rusbatch is an accredited Grey Area Drinking Coach, Menopause Coach, Author, Motivational Speaker and host of a community of over 20,000 women. She has been featured in publications such as ABC News, MamaMia, Body & Soul, Women’s Health, The Sunday Times and is a regular media commentator on Channel 9. Sarah has supported thousands to change their relationship with alcohol, and recently published her first book, Beyond Booze: How To Create A Life You Love Alcohol-Free. 

In our conversation, she shares her story with alcohol and what she has learned about it in the process, including:
What Grey Area Drinking is, and how someone knows if they fall into this category
Why she believes Alcohol Use Disorder in women has increased over 80% in the last 30 years
Why women are more vulnerable than men to the health risks of alcohol
The greatest benefits and the biggest changes for her and the women she works with in choosing to go alcohol free
Why alcohol is “the only drug we have to justify not taking"
Her advice on navigating socialising and friendships without alcohol 
Her biggest tips for anyone wanting to change their own relationship with alcohol

Are You A Grey Area Drinker? feat. Sarah Rusbatch

Every time I do a shout-out for Dear Lorraine requests, I get this question several times: “How do I blend work and family thing?”

This week on the show, I answer it!

You might be expecting a step-by-step guide… which this episode isn’t.

I start by sharing some raw moments from my own recent experiences, then I identify the specific areas that I find most challenging when it comes to blending my business and family….

And THEN I get into the things that help me in this area. 

If you’d like to dive deeper into this space with me, you’ll love my third book Baby, You’re Remarkable. 

And staying on books, for the month of May I’m giving away FREE signed copies of my fourth book, Step Into You.  You just need to pay for postage!  Get your copy here and I’ll pop it in the mail for you: lorrainemurphy.com.au/siy-book.
