We listen back to Phuong’s conversation with Daisy, a Narrm based family violence lawyer and queer parent of a newborn who has recently had to navigate the medical maternity system, on the Women on the Line episode 'Your birth, your body: Seeking continuity of care'. Daisy joined Phuong on the 26th of June to share with us her observations on the lack of continuity of care for birthing people; the learning and unlearning that was required to avoid a traumatic birthing experience; and the similarities she noticed between the maternity system and her field of work. Catch Women on the Line on Mondays from 8:30-9AM on 3CR.//

We hear the second part of a conversation between Megan Krakouer, Noongar woman and project director at the National Suicide Prevention and Trauma Recovery Project, and Uncle Robbie Thorpe from the 8th of May about community based ways of dealing with trauma, the black excellence of elders, the need for practical opportunities and radical empathy. You can catch Uncle Robbie on Bunjil's Fire, broadcasting on Wednesdays at 11AM.//
