Yumi Stynes: Rising strong, surviving the trolls, and finding freedom after divorce

Saison 2 · Épisode 1

dimanche 2 février 2025 • Durée 45:25

We’re back for season two and what a way to kick off, with Australian broadcasting icon, Yumi Stynes – a fierce and fearless trailblazer who knows all about finding your strength when you are very much on your own.

Yumi opens up about surviving some very public media pile-ons, and how she manages the hateful trolling that has made her fear for her safety.

She also shares her journey through two divorces, how it helped her cultivate a robust sense of self, and why we she threw a huge party to celebrate the end of her last marriage.

Yumi’s wisdom, strength and trademark humour make for a candid conversation where nothing is off limits, as she speaks about the freedom and joy she’s found in embracing not only the single life but sobriety.

A writer, podcaster, TV presenter, and mother-of-four, Yumi is the author of the best-selling Welcome To book series (Welcome to Your Period, Welcome to Consent, and more), and her award-winning podcast Ladies We Need To Talk is a groundbreaking show tackling topics that have often been shrouded in shame, stigma or ignorance.

Check out the episode she did recently with Jill talking about her own sobriety journey.

Can quitting drinking be the key to a happy, single life?

Dr Bella DePaulo: Single at heart: the art of thriving solo

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

dimanche 30 juin 2024 • Durée 44:10

As single people, we’re often pitied or seen as living half a life. We’re just incomplete puzzles desperately searching for the missing piece to make us whole.

But what if the risk is not what we’ll miss out on if we don’t organise our lives around a romantic partner, but what we’ll miss out on if we do?

Today, Jill speaks to Dr Bella DePaulo – the world’s leading thinker on the single experience about her research, which shows that for millions of people in every corner of the globe, being single is actually the key to thriving and living their best life.

And contrary to popular cultural assumptions, those who embrace their single status, grow happier as they age.

Dr DePaulo is a professor of psychology with a PhD from Harvard, she’s 70, has always been single, and says she always will be.

She’s the author of Single at Heart: The Power, Freedom, and Heart-Filling Joy of Single Life. Her TEDx Talk, “What no one ever told you about people who are single,” has been viewed more than 1.6 million times.

And for the first time, she shares behind-the-scenes details of what really happened in that viral moment on I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here – when she refused to be weighed on camera – and how this turning point helped her take back her power.

Yvie Jones is a broadcaster, actor and a podcaster, who became a household name with her friend Angie Kent as stars on the hit show Gogglebox, winning four Logies.

An Introduction To Jill Stark & Well Enough Alone

Saison 1 · Épisode 0.5

dimanche 16 juin 2024 • Durée 07:11

This is a podcast for anyone who’s ever been told that being single makes you incomplete, or life will only begin when you find “the one.”

I wanted to make it because I was tired of outdated cultural narratives that told me there were only two life paths available to us – “partnered and happy” or “single and

searching.”

There is a different way – solo and thriving.

With more solo households today than at any point in our history, single people are the fastest-growing demographic.

And yet, being alone is often viewed as a state of limbo before we meet “the one” and settle down.

What if the one you’ve been looking for is you? Could embracing your single status rather than fearing it be the key to a whole and happy life?

To leave “well enough alone” means to stop trying to change something that is already good enough.

I wanted to make a space for conversations that celebrate solo life, flipping the script on sad and lonely single stereotypes and embracing all that a life untethered has to offer.

And that’s exactly what I’ve done, with my incredible production team at Spare Room, who have helped me turn this dream into a reality.

Over the last few months, I’ve interviewed inspiring guests – some who are single and some who aren’t – who shared stories of the strength and comfort they’ve found in their own company.

And I talked to leading experts in psychology, human behaviour, business and health about the upsides and the challenges of solo living – from choosing to be child-free or being a single parent, to managing a budget on one income, enjoying your freedom or navigating loneliness, and dipping your toe in the dating pool.

Whether you’re happily single, trying to get comfortable with your solo status, or even partnered and looking to carve out more time for yourself, Well Enough Alone is here to help you live your life your way.

An Introduction To Well Enough Alone

Saison 1 · Épisode 0.5

samedi 8 juin 2024 • Durée 01:18

Well Enough Alone is a celebration of solo living that tears up the “sad and lonely”

single script and embraces a path that can be joyful, expansive and fulfilling.

Because there is more to life than “partnered and happy” or “single and searching.”

There is solo and thriving.

Hosted by best-selling author and award-winning journalist, Jill Stark, this podcast is

for anyone who’s ever been told that being single makes you incomplete. Or that life

will only begin when you find “the one”.

To leave “well enough alone” means to stop trying to change something that is

already good enough.

What if the one you’ve been looking for is you? Could embracing your single status

rather than fearing it be the key to a happy life?

Jill talks to inspiring guests, some who are single and some who aren’t,

about what they’ve learned from time spent in their own company, and interviews

leading experts in psychology, human behaviour, business, health and wellbeing,

about how to thrive alone.

Gyan Yankovich: on building a shared future with friends, and why friendship should be treated with the same respect as marriage

Saison 1 · Épisode 11

dimanche 1 septembre 2024 • Durée 43:14

Our friends are some of the most important people in our lives. They’re the people we can be 100% ourselves with.

And for many single people, they are our family.

So why are friendships seen as lesser than romantic or blood family relationships?

This week, Jill talks to journalist and author, Gyan Yankovich, about her book, Just Friends, and what would happen if society treated friendship with the same reverence and respect as marriage.

Can a friend be more than just a friend – can they be someone to build a shared future with?

This conversation explores the power of modern friendship – what it means to be, to make, and sometimes to lose a friend, and why these pivotal relationships are so often undervalued.

You can follow Gyan on Instagram @gyanyankovich learn more about her book Just Friends here.

Emma Edwards: Budgeting for one, and understanding emotional spending

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

dimanche 18 août 2024 • Durée 49:59

One of the best things about solo life is the freedom to live life your own, without having to run decisions past anyone else.

But one of the more challenging things is how expensive it can be to live alone. You have the same household costs as couples but only one income.

Whether it’s booking a room in a hotel, paying for health insurance, or forking out for power bills, groceries and living expenses, it all costs more when you do it solo. We’re essentially paying a single person’s tax.

So, how can we better manage our finances when we can only rely on ourselves? And how do we understand the patterns that drive our spending?

This week, Jill talks to certified Financial Behaviour Specialist®, Emma Edwards – founder of The Broke Generation – about how to get underneath the emotional side of money and why our spending habits are often tangled up with our sense of identity and behavioural patterns.

Emma also talks movingly about the challenges of being an only child caring for ageing parents.

You can find out more about her through her website, The Broke Generation, follow her on Instagram @the.brokegeneration, listen to her podcast or read her book, Good With Money.
