Hello beautiful listeners! This is a welcome message from me, thanking you all for tuning in to the first few weeks of Untethered. It's also an explanation for why there's no new episode this week - short answer, it's recorded and I'm editing it but I was interstate in three different cities last week working (including presenting a brand new show I've never done before and *stressing* about how it would go) and I'm just ever so slightly burnt out this week. I hope that this transparency is also seen as a good reminder to us all that it's okay to say we just don't have capacity for something - it's taken me a long time of being on the hamster wheel to realise this, but the world will not end if I miss a deadline (unless that deadline is figuring out how to stop the world from ending - which, let's be honest, is unlikely something I'd be in charge of.)

I also talk a little about the heartbreak of losing my podcast at Nova thanks to my political stance on Palestine. At some point in the future, I'll delve more into that too.

In the meantime, Untethered will be back as per usual next week with special guest CLAIRE TONTI, discussing motherhood, creativity, recovering from birth trauma and how the world would benefit if we actually honoured and revered the nurturing, caring elements of what it means 'to mother'.
