Missed your weekly dose of health news? In What The Health, GP Dr Ginni Mansberg and comedian Cath Mahoney are unpacking the stories everyone’s talking about—from why HRT patches are still hard to find and what alternatives are finally arriving, to the simple strength training “sweet spot” linked to a longer, healthier life.

They’re also getting to the bottom of a viral TikTok trend: can testosterone cream really give you better skin, or is it a recipe for breakouts and unwanted hair?

In Are You Well?, Dr Ginni reveals how much water women actually need, why dehydration can leave you feeling flat and foggy, and the warning signs of pre-diabetes that many people miss.

And in Asking for a Friend, she answers your real-life questions—from spotting with Mirena to unexpected odours and whether perimenopausal brain fog is normal or something more serious.

What does it actually look like to live, heal, and thrive when your physical health has been pushed to the absolute limit?

In this episode, we sit down with Aimee Morrisby, who shares her extraordinary, radical journey of body survival and transformation. Born with a rare condition that left her missing the vital ganglion cells in her digestive tract, Aimee spent her entire childhood navigating severe medical trauma, culminating in a major surgery that left her with a permanent ileostomy and just 60 centimetres of small bowel.

Aimee opens up about the deep emotional realities of her fertility journey, the profound gift of sisterly surrogacy that brought her healthy daughter into the world, and the terrifying moment she decided to walk away from her career, go cold turkey on chronic pain medications, and radically rewrite her own health from the inside out.
