What a coo for the Chatters they managed to interview the extraordinary interviewer – Sean Croxton. Sean began his life as an interviewer with his podcast Underground Wellness, he reached the peak of his career in that space and then walked away from the health realm to move into self help and personal development. His change was that he understand that there were many modalities to healing, but he noticed that those that healed had a lot to do with their mind and positivity. He followed his passion and has managed to secure himself as the most informed interviewer about his guest. He also has interviewed the best in the self help space. In this interview Sean tells The Chatters about a year of learning and what he learnt about an industry and about himself.

Tuesday Jan 21, 2020
As the Chatters take a Summer break, we’re throwing back to six of our most popular and powerful episodes. This week’s episode is …
This is an explosive interview that leaves Carren angry, so upset that there can be blatant lies and deception in government and the corporations in agriculture. The Up for A Chatters interview Carey Gillam a veteran journalist, researcher and writer with more than 25 years of experience in the news industry covering corporate America. She is also a Mum, someone concerned about the lies and deception that is hurting humanities health. Carey traces the corruption of science in startling detail, uncovering stories of how agribusiness has taken advantage of “useful” government employees and censored or discredited scientists to bury evidence of harm. Her investigation reveals how political influence has been at work for years in regulatory agencies such as the FDA, USDA, and even within the EPA—the very agency created as a result of Carson’s findings in Silent Spring. Carey’s book Whitewash lays bare unappetising truths about the levels of glyphosate and other pesticides commonly found in our food products.

UC 366: The Unbreakable Farmer with Warren Davies – Part 2
Tuesday Dec 24, 2019
Tuesday Dec 24, 2019
Warren Davies is the Unbreakable Farmer, this interview has been broken into two parts. Warren talks about farming today and the mental health crisis and suicide rate amongst Australian farmers.
Resilience, Persistence and Determination are the words to describe Warren Davies.
Born and bred in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, Warren was the son of small business owners.
A leader throughout his Primary School years, this confidence was eroded once entering Secondary School, where he was subjected to bullying and not fitting in. His academic achievement began a downward spiral. This is where his skill of Resilience was developed a skill that would be called upon time and time again in future years.
In 1982 His family made the massive decision to move to the country and pursue his father’s dream of becoming a farmer. This gave Warren an opportunity to reinvent himself. A direction, a career path: he was going to be a Farmer!
Mentored by one of the best farmers in the district, Warren honed his skills and, by the age of 22, he had purchased his first farm.
The next sixteen years were to be defining years for him.
The harsh reality of being a farmer soon became evident: high interest rates, low commodity prices, flood and drought; all having an impact, but most significantly, was that on his mental health. These events all tested his Resilience, Persistence and Determination and had a massive impact on his young family, relationships and finances all culminating with the decision to basically having to walk off the farm.
Although with his skills, work was easy to find, managing large scale operations from Victoria to South Australia, it wasn’t the same, he couldn’t settle, he assumed that he had lost his identity because not only was the farm his career, it was his home, his life! In his eyes he had failed and carried the guilt of failing as a husband and father.
Being an avid reader of books he searched for a better way, he began the journey of piecing back together his life, but the road has been long, through his Resilience, Persistence and Determination, he now imparts his skills and pays forward his unique stories, their moral relevant to all ages, from the country to the city, a farmer or the CEO of a large corporation.
There is more to this farmer than meets the eye. Listen in as Kim and Cyndi talk to The Unbreakable farmer about the important work he is doing now and how his life has led him to what he does today.www.theunbreakablefarmer.com.aubeyondblue.org.aulifeline.org.au

UC 364: Dr Chris Exley – Mr Aluminium
Tuesday Dec 10, 2019
Tuesday Dec 10, 2019
Cyndi interviews Dr Chris Exley a professor in Bioinorganic Chemistry for her students at The Nutrition Academy. She believes that the information is so important that she is sharing it with Up For A Chat. Dr Exley has been studying aluminum in living systems for well over three decades and was unknown until he began researching aluminum adjuvants in vaccines. He then lost his funding, came under fire and has become the vaccine industry’s number one public enemy. His latest blog released 2nd December 2019 titled Aluminium Adjuvants in Vaccines; Missing Information, is well referenced and suggested reading. Go to his instagram (professorchris) click on the link in his bio and become informed.
Christopher Exley’s has published 185 research works with 4972 citations and 11406 reads.
Cyndi’s comments on the interview;
I’ve been listening to Dr Chris Exley for about a year with regards to The Aluminium Age.
Dr Exley is a professor of Bioinorganic Chemistry, began his undergraduate degree at Stirling and is presently a Professor of Bioinorganic Chemistry and group leader of the Bioinorganic Chemistry Laboratory at Keele University, and is an honorary professor at the UHI Millennium Institute.
His understanding of Aluminium is living things started 35 years ago when he was studying fish. His 2018 published article on Aluminium and Autism you can read it here https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0946672X17308763 created a plethora of negative publicity for the humble scientist. But as you listen to this wonderful interview you will begin to understand that he is a scientist seeking the truth. I heard a quote recently by Yuval Noah Harari he said, “Science is about profit not the truth” when it comes to corporations, but individuals seek the truth. Chris and his team have found a truth that profitable corporations don’t want him to find. Listen in as he explains the Aluminium Age.
The water Chris Talks about in Australia is called www.cottonwoodsprings.com.au, they are based out of Ballarat. Their silica-rich water is just under Fiji water at 68mg/litre

UC 363: Lets Do The Keto Thing with Cyndi O’Meara
Tuesday Dec 03, 2019
Tuesday Dec 03, 2019
Cyndi is writing a new book called The Healthy Keto Way. What is the Keto diet, why has it become so popular, is it really a diet or a state of being? Kim wants to know more and everyone is asking her about it, so Cyndi and Kim sit down to talk about the history of the Ketogenic diet, which dates back thousands of generations, how do you get into a state of ketosis, what is cyclical ketosis, what is Keto-flu and much more.
Cyndi talks about the fact that she has written an article on keto supplements, here is the link https://changinghabits.com.au/ketosis-can-we-achieve-it-in-a-pill/
and another link about the history of Ketosis https://changinghabits.com.au/the-true-and-untold-history-of-the-ketogenic-diet/
The book will not be out until 2020, but the Chatters wanted their listeners to get an understanding of this new fad that in evolutionary terms is something very old.

UC 362: Gary Woolums on Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) Therapy
Tuesday Nov 26, 2019
Tuesday Nov 26, 2019
The chatters have had a lot of speakers on about EMF’s, they’ve also asked some pertinent questions about EMF’s for many of their guests. This week Gary Woolens comes on to talk about native (rather than non-native) EMF’s ones that come form the ground.
Gary has been doing PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic field therapy for two and a half years. He got into it for personal reasons and it evolved from there.
Gary was in a boat accident thirty years ago where he broke his back. He experienced extreme pain and the specialists said there was nothing that could be done as the major sacral nerves and blood vessels ran through four openings on each side of the broken sacrum.
He was on crutches for seven months with pain levels of seven on up. While the major pain finally subsided after about nine months, he was left with chronic pain and stiffness that ebbed and waned in varying degrees over the years. He tried complementary or alternative therapy but nothing lasted.
He found out about PEMF, did lots of research and loved the science behind it, purchased a system as he couldn’t find anyone doing it in Australia. Four days, twice a day on the full body mat and the pillow pad and 95% of the pain was gone. Sleep has also improved.
Gary studied a Pre-Med major for four years but ended up with a degree in Psychology as Allopathic Medicine was just symptom treating to him. He went on to Graduate School in parapsychology and Eastern studies but dropped out when I met a teacher who taught on many levels about health, personal and spiritual development.
If you would like to talk to Gary, here are all his details.

UC 361: Rachael Treasure – Down The Dirt Roads
Tuesday Nov 19, 2019
Tuesday Nov 19, 2019
Rachael Treasure is a mother, regenerative agriculturalist and author. She set her sights on becoming a rural journalist and writing a bestseller that would showcase contemporary rural women, who were comfortable in, and caring of, their farming landscape. As a young Tasmanian on ‘the mainland’ Rachael saw a profound disconnection emerging between the land and women in the growing culture of modern industrial agriculture. Her first novel, ‘Jillaroo’ (2002) has become an iconic contemporary work of fiction, changing the face of Australian publishing and kick-starting a boom of rural women’s fiction. Her 7th book is White Horses.
The Chatters feel like they have found another soul sister, the conversation bounces between, Cyndi’s love of Regenerative Farming, Carren’s love of mind and spirit and Kim’s love of diving in deep to ask the most pertinent questions to get the best out of our guests. By the end of the chat, all three chatters are keen to read Rachaels books, visit her farm and become her best friend.

Tuesday Nov 12, 2019
Tuesday Nov 12, 2019
Kim interviews Kirsty Wirth from Kultured Wellness and Cyndi O’Meara from Changing Habits after they return from their very successful trip to the Solomon Islands. It’s a wake up call for both business owners. They speak at the University in Honiara, to the Ministry of Health, the Hospital and take time out to go to an island to meet the locals that are living a fairly traditional life. Diabetes in adults and wasting disease in children is the current health crisis. The trend for the past 20 years has been away from the traditional diet and consuming more and more rice and sugar products. For children with wasting disease a ready to use therapeutic food (RUTL) is available for 6 months and above made from hydrogenated vegetable oils, sugar, peanuts and other dubious ingredients. Listen in on their incredible journey and how they are instigating a change back to traditional ways along with Kokonut Pacific – a local virgin oil producer.
