  • Another Perfect Interview

    I have just finished the interview and discussion with Lisa about her new book. Sarrah, really does interview her guests with such respect, still touches on the personal aspects we probably also would to know about while also giving the reason the guest is there, their feature in Stella, “the plug” but without it being oversold. This podcast has become a must listen in my weekly repertoire. Highly recommended

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Jodi Gordon on shame, sobriety and starting over
Q: Can you share how your skincare and wellness routine ties into your broader approach to health and recovery?
Taking care of skin, body, and mind creates momentum. Small, consistent habits—hydration, nutrition, sleep, exercise—build resilience and confidence, which supports recovery and overall well-being. This integrated approach helps me model balance for my daughter and clients alike.
Jodi Gordon on shame, sobriety and starting over
Q: How do you balance public life with your work in mental health and recovery, and what have you learned about ego versus service?
I've learned to keep a safe distance between what I hear and how I respond, protecting both myself and the people I work with. Ego can creep in, but the goal is to stay grounded in service, honesty, and humility, letting actions—rather than words—demonstrate commitment to helping others.
Jodi Gordon on shame, sobriety and starting over
Q: What does recovery mean to you, and how has your understanding of it evolved since you first spoke about it publicly?
Recovery is an invisible thread that runs through all of us, connecting different life experiences. It's non-linear—people fall down and rise again—and the emphasis is on living, sharing, and supporting one another without stigma. It's about creating accessible, affordable pathways to help and recognizing that recovery can look different for everyone.
Why a silver medal isn’t good enough for Jessica Hull
Q: What comes next after LA 2028—retirement, or another Olympic cycle?
She acknowledges she can't race forever but sees potential for a long post-elite career, with interest in Brisbane 2032 and continued involvement in sport.
Why a silver medal isn’t good enough for Jessica Hull
Q: What are your thoughts on the business side of sport and gender equity in sponsorships and contracts?
Hull notes variability and lack of transparency in contracts, but emphasizes that prize money in athletics has historically been 50-50 and opportunities for endorsements ebb and flow.
