The Resource
From Mining Sites to Mic Drops: Becky's Back.
Becky launched The Resource Podcast during the FIFO Inquiry to spark real talk about culture, mental health, and the hard stuff no one wants to touch. Think truth bombs, tough convos, and healing with humour.
Now she's back, flipping the script again. After 40 episodes and 15,000 mining crew later, the podcast is diving deeper into money stress, mindset shifts, relationships, and the stories we tell ourselves.
Expect raw chats, zero fluff, and life-saving honesty. If you've ever felt stuck, broke, or burnt out, this one's for you.
The hope is that listeners feel so supported, informed, and confident about these topics that you start and continue better conversations that create lasting change. This is a place that is made and supported by the people, for the people. A team effort where we unite to make a lasting change.
If you need to speak to someone Lifeline 13 11 14.
