What if one of the most powerful wellness tools wasn't just about recovery, detoxification, or longevity, but about human connection?

In this episode of Inside-Out Connections, Tracey-Anne sits down with Chris, founder of The Sauna Project Sydney with partner Georgia, to explore the growing movement of community sauna culture and why so many people are seeking spaces to slow down, reconnect, and simply be.

Drawing from his own experience, Chris shares how a love of contrast therapy evolved into a mission to create a place where strangers become familiar faces, conversations happen naturally, and people rediscover a sense of belonging.

Together they discuss the physical benefits of sauna, the importance of ritual, the power of sitting in stillness, and why community may be one of the most overlooked pillars of wellbeing today.

What really happens during a facelift?
And why are more women quietly moving away from endless fillers and toward surgery?

In this honest and deeply informative conversation, I sit down with plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr Jeremy Hunt to unpack the modern facelift conversation and why the approach to facial ageing has changed so dramatically over the years.

We discuss everything from mini facelifts, deep plane facelifts and neck lifts to downtime, scars, recovery and what actually creates natural looking results. Dr Hunt also explains why today’s women are no longer chasing a dramatically different face, but instead wanting to look fresher, healthier and still like themselves.

This episode goes beyond surgery. It’s also a conversation about confidence, ageing, self perception and the emotional side of wanting to still feel good in your own skin as the years go on.

Whether you’re simply curious, quietly considering surgery yourself, or wanting to better understand the modern world of aesthetics, this conversation offers a grounded and balanced perspective without fear, hype or judgment.
