Clinical psychologist Hayley Zarb joins Preeya to chat about the beast that is anxiety.

What’s the difference between stress and anxiety? What happens during a session with a psychologist? What’s the role of medication and when is it useful?

This is a chat filled with practical takeaways (including some tools you can implement to those annoying anxious thoughts!) and raw moments with Preeya sharing her own journey with generalised anxiety disorder during medical school and how it continues to impact her role with patients in the consulting room.

Sunscreen got (super) sexy and dermatologist Dr Cara McDonald and Preeya are here for it! They break down which sunscreen (chemical, physical or both!) and when and answer your nitty gritty questions around the order to apply sunscreen, serums and make up, tricks when it comes to reapplying and whether you need a dedicated sunscreen or if the all in one stuff is good enough.

We invited kids to ask their medical questions and here are the answers.
