After six seasons of Headstraight, I found myself reflecting on something.

We've talked about anxiety, confidence, friendships, boundaries, self-belief and so many of the challenges that young people face. Those conversations still matter. But the more time I spent listening to young people, the more I realise that many of the biggest struggles don't begin with a diagnosis or even a clear problem. They begin with a question.

The questions that keep people awake at night. The ones that feel too embarrassing to ask. Too confusing to explain. Or too risky to say out loud.

So, rather than organising this next season around a theme, we're organising it around those questions. Each episode starts with one real question or statment and explores what's really sitting underneath it—not with quick fixes or easy answers, but with honest conversations that help make sense of difficult experiences and what you can do next.

If you've been with me since the beginning, thank you for coming this far. And if this is your first episode, you've joined us at the start of an exciting new chapter.

Welcome to the next phase of Headstraight.
