AS SEEN IN
I’m a mum, singer, podcast host, speaker, mental health advocate and proudly 7 years sober.
The long road to right here…
You might know me as the girl who won Australian Idol back in 2005. Or maybe from the Young Divas days.
You might’ve also seen the headlines — when things started to fall apart.
What you didn’t see was the pain behind the performances.
The addiction. The self-doubt. The spiral.
But I’m still here.
And these days? I’m sober, I’m a mum, I’m a speaker, and I’ve got a whole lot more to say.
This was me then.
Everyone saw the smile.
No one saw the spiral.
I spent years pretending I was fine — until I couldn’t anymore.
Coming back meant facing the truth and rewriting my story.
Recovery wasn’t quick or easy.
But it gave me back my voice — and a purpose bigger than any stage I’ve ever stood on.
Now, I share that story through music, speaking and honest conversations that help others feel less alone.
THE PODCAST
“Why do I feel this way?” Podcast started with one goal — to say the stuff we usually don’t.
Season 1 is my story. No sugar-coating. No BS. Just the messy, human truth.
From Season 2 onwards, my co-host Claudia Coy and I have chats with incredible humans — like Shannon Noll, The Morning Show’s Kylie Gillies, and experts in addiction, body image, and mental health.
If you need a dose of honesty, healing or hope… this one’s for you.

Do You Need Help Right Now?
If you're here because you're struggling — with addiction, mental health, or just life feeling bloody hard — there’s a whole page of support that might help.
You’ll find a mix of nationally approved and government-recommended services, plus some personal recommendations from me and others I trust.
Not everything on there will be the right fit — and that’s okay. Healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. But there is something out there for you. You don’t have to do this alone.
