From acne struggles to a thriving skin clinic 💆‍♀️✨

This week on the podcast, I chat with Brisbane Registered Nurse and founder of The Functional Skin Studio, Madilyn Sonter.

Maddy opens up about her journey from RN to business owner, skincare developer and mum, and how her own struggles with acne, sensitive skin and gut health shaped the way she now treats and supports her clients.

We also dive into compliance in the cosmetic space, what it really looks like to run an ethical skin business in Queensland, and how her green, clean skincare line grew out of her lived experience.

Such an inspiring, practical and honest conversation for nurses, cosmetic practitioners and anyone curious about skin health.

🎧 Listen to the full episode wherever you get your podcasts, or watch the conversation on YouTube.

I stopped drinking alcohol nearly 6 years ago!

Christmas is a tough time of year if your goal is to remain sober or reduce your alcohol consumption.

I have put together a mocktail journal, how to plan ahead and some great tips that helped me (and still helps me) when I’m in a position I feel uncomfortable and where alcohol is being consumed in large quantities.

I’m coming up to 6 years sober, and there are situations where I still feel uncomfortable. So for me, planning is really important.

These are what have worked for me and continue to work for me.

I wish I knew these strategies when I first stopped drinking. It would have helped so much. So I have put them together for you all. It will help take some of the pressure off you!

Some will work for you, some may not, however, these are great tools to help you manage events, parties and still have fun!

The mocktail journal is a fantastic resource, especially when having a party at your home, or it’s BYO.
I can promise you, the mocktails are so yummy, people will be asking you for the recipes!

So for Black Friday, I’ve put the Mocktail Journal, the SOS kit and How to manage a night out as a fantastic Black Friday Deal.

There are no words for this turn of events in the health space in America.

It is going to impact Nurses, speech pathologists, physician assistants, occupational therapists, public health experts and counselling.

Not only will the affordability of study be affected, but the livelihood of these amazing clinicians will be impacted. The biggest loser in this is the general public. Make no mistake, this will impact your rights to health care.



My thoughts and prayers are with my colleagues in the US. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

The love of a pet is truly something special 🐾

If you have ever had a pet who just gets you, you know what I mean. They comfort us, calm us, and somehow always know when we need them most.

In my latest blog, I share how my pets have shaped my life and why our bond with animals might be even more powerful than we realise.

Five years on, we remember Hannah Clarke and her three beautiful children 💔

Their lives were taken in a horrific act of domestic violence that shocked Australia and started a national conversation about respect, prevention and change.

In this episode, I sit down with Dave Kramer, Hannah’s close friend, who shares the impact of that day, how he has learned to live with the loss, and how he continues to honour Hannah’s memory through education and awareness.

This conversation is heartbreaking yet full of hope. My wish is that Hannah’s story continues to inspire change and remind us all to treat one another with care and respect.

🎧 Listen to this powerful episode on the podcast.

When was the last time you did something just for you? 🧶

Life moves fast, and for so many of us in nursing and healthcare, our energy goes into caring for everyone else. But what about the small things that bring you joy?

Lately, I’ve been reminded of how powerful it can be to slow down, create something with your hands, and reconnect with yourself. A simple hobby can calm the mind, quiet anxiety, and remind you that patience and presence still matter.

In my latest blog, The Power of Having a Hobby, I share how one creative outlet became a form of self care and why I think everyone should find their own version of it.

What’s something you love doing just for you? I’d love to hear it in the comments. 💬

Does how we show up really matter? 👔

I was at the hospital over the weekend visiting a friend and noticed a few doctors whose appearance was really ordinary. Hair greasy, shirts wrinkled, looking tired and unkept.

It made me wonder. Does how we present ourselves at work still matter? Does it affect how others see us, the trust we build, or even how we feel about ourselves?

I would love to hear from you. 👇
In your job or workplace, is presentation important, or are skills and attitude what really count?
