Claire Harvey tells the stories of victims every day. But does it take a toll?

Claire Harvey is a journalist at The Australian, and she is the woman behind all your favourite podcasts. She was an integral part of the team that produced The Teacher's Trial and The Teacher's Accuser (follow-ups to the world-renowned The Teacher's Pet), and she has also been an editorial director on other harrowing podcasts out of The Australian, like Shandees Story and My Sisters Secret.

And to top it all off, she’s currently hosting The Australian’s The Front podcast, which delivers a daily dose of news to your podcast feeds.

But, there is a theme here - Claire is working on really important stories but they’re also really dark, and all-consuming. So how does she separate it all? How does she decide which stories need to be told?

This episode of Under The Gloss touches on sexual and domestic violence, so please listen with care. If this raises any issues or concerns, you can reach out to Lifeline on 131114.
