Things You Didn't Learn In School

How much period pain is normal? Does my weight impact my cycle? And why oh why do we get period poos?!

In Mamamia’s brand new podcast Well, co-hosts Claire Murphy and Dr Mariam discuss everything you need to know about periods and bust a few myths along the way. Plus you’ll learn about the existence of a sperm graveyard and whether there is a ‘right’ way for your vagina to smell.
Well is a podcast about the taboo, the annoying, the embarrassing and the scary. We cover the concerns you’re probably considering seeing a doctor about, from insomnia to weird periods to how to prevent dementia. The full body health check for the Australian woman - dropping every Thursday - wherever you get your podcasts.
Coming up - we delve into endo, PCOS, depression, ADHD and burnout.

Welcome to BIZ - the podcast that's rewriting the rules of work for a new generation.
Join Em Vernem (ambitious but efficient), Michelle Battersby (launched Bumble APAC) and Soph Hirst (ex-Google) as they tackle everything from dealing with difficult bosses to knowing if your side hustle can become your career.
In this first episode:
Asking for a pay rise is about as comfortable as explaining to your boss why you've been late three times this week. But what if there was a way to do it that actually works?

Biz career coaches Michelle Battersby and Soph Hirst to share their proven framework for getting what you want at work (spoiler: don't mention your expensive oat latte habit).
Plus, they bust the myths about asking every year, using other job offers as leverage, and what to do if you get a 'no'.
Consider this your cheat sheet to having the money conversation - minus the awkward sweating.

Welcome to your mental health first aid kit...
One out of every two people will develop a mental health disorder in their lifetime. But for most of us, we were never taught how to handle it. 
So, we've brought in psychologist Jacqui Manning to provide easy, practical tips for actually feeling better. And no, it's not a bubble bath or "smiling more!"
Always seek the advice of your mental health professional or doctor with any questions you may have regarding your mental health.
