| 5/4/26 |  Chloe Hayden: Language, Identity, and Heartbreak High | In this episode of Mental as Anyone, host Jonathan Moran sits down with the vibrant and multi-talented Chloe Hayden, actor, author, and advocate, for a refreshingly honest chat about mental health and identity. Chloe explains why she prefers the term "autistic" over "living with autism," diving into the history and power of the language we use to describe ourselves. The conversation gets real about the pressures of the entertainment industry, as Chloe opens up about experiencing cancel culture, dealing with severe rejection sensitivity dysphoria, and the importance of having a trusted "inner circle" to keep her grounded. Chloe also reflects on the massive impact of her character, Quinny, on Heartbreak High, calling for a future where disabled characters are written with lived experience and allowed to be more than just their diagnosis.From stealing stickers at Netflix to the "trampoline" of support provided by her family, this episode is an insightful look at staying resilient while living life out loud. | — | ||||||
| 4/27/26 | John Pearce: The "Hot Wiggle" on Shyness and Self-Image | Host Jonathan Moran sits down with the multi-talented John Pearce for a vulnerable conversation about the man behind the world’s most famous purple skivvy. While John is known for his incredible physique and stage presence, the "hot wiggle" reveals a lifelong struggle with shyness and a tendency to overthink even the simplest social interactions.In this episode, John and Jonathan discuss:How John was actually training to be a firefighter and studying nutrition before a chance encounter with Anthony Field changed his trajectory.Why John is determined to be a "present" and affectionate father to his son, Henry, a sharp contrast to his own upbringing with a strict, 60-year-old retired military father.John explains how lifting weights serves as his primary coping mechanism for anxiety, giving him a sense of control that the stage doesn't always provide.Why John is proud of The Wiggles' inclusive message, viewing the show as a "big bowl of fruit salad" where everyone has a seat at the table.A moving reflection on the miscarriage he and his wife Jesse endured, and the "failure after failure" they faced before finally welcoming their son.From his early days busking in Pitt Street Mall to becoming a global icon, John shares why he still feels like a "muppet" on camera and how he maintains an 8/10 mental health rating by focusing on what truly matters: family. | — | ||||||
| 4/20/26 | Beccy Cole: Kintsugi, and the Road to Resilience | In this raw and refreshingly honest episode, host Jonathan Moran sits down with 11-time Golden Guitar winner and Australian music icon Beccy Cole. On the day of her first album release in seven years, Through the Haze, Beccy opens up about her journey through a profound mental health "breakdown" and the path to reconstruction.The conversation dives deep into the unconventional methods that aided her recovery, from equine therapy to the Japanese art of Kintsugi, the symbolic act of repairing broken pottery with gold to create something more priceless than the original. Beccy and Jonathan candidly discuss: Navigating "broken minded" moments and the importance of getting through life in ten-minute increments.How songwriting served as her primary therapy before engaging in professional clinical support and "rapid therapy" modalities.A frank look at addiction and the realization that she could not heal deep sadness without being sober.Reflecting on her journey as a lesbian in the Australian country music scene and the responsibility of being "out" to support the LGBTQ+ community in regional Australia.This episode is a testament to the idea that while you may feel smashed into tiny pieces, it is possible to put yourself back together with more strength, humor, and joy than ever before.Order JMo's book hereResources Call Lifeline anytime on 13 11 14.

| 4/13/26 | Conrad Sewell: Vulnerability is Not a Weakness | In this deeply raw and unfiltered episode, host Jonathan Moran sits down with his long-time friend and global superstar Conrad Sewell. Spanning a 20-year friendship, this conversation goes far beyond the music industry surface to explore the "work in progress" of a man still figuring it all out.Conrad opens up for the first time about the lasting trauma of facing national humiliation at age 16 on Australian Idol, and how that "chip on his shoulder" fueled both his meteoric rise and a destructive path of substance abuse. He shares candid details about:The Reality of Addiction: His struggles with cocaine and alcohol, including a harrowing account of a near-death experience on Sunset Boulevard and his eventual journey into rehab. The "Imposter" Behind the Hits: Why he struggled to accept major accolades like his ARIA Song of the Year, often attributing his success to industry "rigging" rather than his own talent.A New Purpose: How becoming a father and meeting his partner, Jasmine, shifted his perspective, teaching him that family now carries more weight than the pursuit of being the "next Michael Jackson".The Sound of Honesty: How his latest music is "flooded" with his truth, serving as a way to connect with anyone who has ever felt hopeless, ridiculed, or unloved.This is a powerful look at the "angels" that keep us standing and the courage it takes to stop numbing the pain and start feeling the music again.Order JMo's book hereResources Call Lifeline anytime on 13 11 14.
