In Conversation with Jonathon Moran

Brisbane Powerhouse

Updated: Sep 21, 2025

Entertainment journalist and podcast host Jonathon ‘J.Mo’ Moran brings his hit book Mental as Anyone to the stage in the raw, real and empowering In Conversation event at Brisbane Powerhouse on Friday, October 24.

Life can be messy, unpredictable, and overwhelming – but you don’t have to face it alone.

With warmth, wit, and raw honesty, J.Mo shares stories from his personal journey – from public trauma to private triumph – and practical strategies to build your own “life toolkit.” Developed with renowned clinical psychologist Dr Jodie Lowinger, these tools tackle real challenges like identity, addiction, self-worth, and survival.

Expect wild stories (yes, including the night he spent in Carrie Fisher’s hotel room), heartfelt insights, and advice you can use immediately. Whether you’re navigating your own mental health or simply looking to show up more fully in the world, Mental as Anyone is an unforgettable session of resilience, realness, and radical self-care.

Good to know – Duration 60 min.

Need to know – Suitable for 15+. Children under two not permitted.

Brisbane Powerhouse is a valued partner of Must Do Brisbane.com
