Dr Helena Popovic
Every three seconds, someone in the world receives a dementia diagnosis, and two thirds of them are women.
In this episode, Dr Helena Popovic – medical doctor, bestselling author and one of the world's leading experts on brain health – talks about why women are so much more vulnerable than men, what the drop in estrogen is actually doing to your brain, and most importantly, what you can start doing today to protect it.
Jacqueline Hellyer
What if the "lost libido" you've been blaming on age, hormones or your relationship was never actually about desire at all?
In this episode I sit down with renowned sex and relationship therapist Jacqueline Hellyer where she breaks down the myth of spontaneous desire, why so many of us have only ever known unsatisfying sex, and how real intimacy starts long before you ever get to the bedroom.
Karen Martell
Why do we gain weight in midlife?
Your body isn't failing you. It's running out of the hormones it needs.
In this episode, I sit down with Karen Martel, certified hormone specialist and transformational nutrition coach, to pull back the curtain on what perimenopause and menopause are actually doing to women's bodies and minds, and what you can do about it.

What's Really Keeping You Stuck? (And How to Create a Life You Truly Love)
with Craig Harper
Change doesn't happen because you finally feel ready. It happens because you decide, then follow through, whether you feel ready or not.
I'm sitting down with behavior change expert and exercise physiologist Craig Harper, host of The You Project podcast, for a conversation I've wanted to have with him for a long time. We dig into why we keep repeating the habits we know aren't serving us, from grey area drinking to self-sabotage, and why willpower alone was never going to fix it.
Craig shares how he manages his own mind, body and behavior, why most of us are chasing "magic" instead of just making a decision, and how becoming the scientist of your own life is the real path to change. We also talk about why so many women are quietly turning to alcohol just to cope, and what it actually takes to build a life you don't need to escape from.

About The Show
Become Stronger, Bolder and Wiser with Sarah Rusbatch
No one really prepares you for this stage of life.
One day you wake up and realise… You’re exhausted.
Your body feels different.
Your sleep is off.
Your tolerance for things you used to accept has disappeared.
And you start quietly asking yourself:
“Surely life is meant to feel better than this?”
If you’ve ever had that thought… this podcast is for you.
Stronger Bolder Wiser is a space for honest and science-backed conversations.
We’re talking about the things women are actually experiencing:
Hormones, health, alcohol, stress, identity shifts, and the quiet reinvention happening behind the scenes.
Because this stage of life isn’t about shrinking.
It’s about becoming stronger in your boundaries, bolder in your choices, and wiser about what really matters.
