One of the most frequent questions I get asked online and on the podcast is about parenting. How do you raise resilient children, how do you stay sane as a parent? It can be a lot and we’re all just trying to figure it out but instead of giving unsolicited advice, I brought in the big guns with Australia’s leading parenting expert Lael Stone. Lael Stone is an Australian Speaker, Educator, and Author. Lael’s passions are supporting parents to understand their children, helping adults process...

Guys, meet my best friend Elle! Yes, I do have friends, not many these days but the ones that have stuck around are my people. Elle has been my best friend since year 7 but apparently, I found out in this chat, that the feeling of being friends since day 1 wasn't mutual and from her story, I can't blame her. We are polar opposites and that's why we probably work, my job and life are online and she doesn't have any social media. We talk about growing up together, stories from high school...

My unofficial co-host Big Eddy is back for another episode, this one is for the dads and a reminder to check in on your dad friends. The pressures dads feel about parenting and raising little humans are completely different to mums I've realised, and yes there is such a thing as dad guilt. Does Ben wish he was the stay-at-home parent? How does he feel raising a young boy and two young girls in today's society? How can you be the best partner in a relationship with young children, when do you...

We’re back, season 2. A little bit of a life update in this episode, a catch up session and I am so nervous about it. We travel back in time to when I went to LA and met Rih Rih. What happened in that whirlwind trip, what was Rihanna like, we have been seriously sleep deprived in our house thanks to Soul and had to hire a sleep nurse, and then we get to the juicy stuff.

This week I put my sister in the chair, Bella Wolfgang, and asked her everything I wanted to know without having Mum, Dad, or Ben there. We never get to talk like this. Bella talks about why I am what I am, she dropped me on my head as a kid and that’s when our rivalry started, joking we weren't competitive growing up. Bella being the second eldest though got the rough end of the stick and me being the youngest was a little rebel and got away with a lot more. We have a special bond as sisters...

I’ve never seen someone in my life and I’ve always had this perception that you need to be unwell to see someone. I used to think therapists were scary but sitting down with therapist Solomon Petrovski has opened up my world to how much talking helps. Something is wrong with all of us, everyone needs help and it’s ok not to feel ok. I realised I have so many problems, I didn’t know I had so many problems and I don’t know where they stem from or what triggers them. I open up about my mental...

We have a very special guest this week and I am so lucky he took time out of his busy schedule. Everyone has been asking for him to be on and here he is, Big Eddy! Also known as Ben, his actual real name. I’m pretty sure it was love at first sight for Ben, but definitely not for me. We talk about how we first met, how Ben proposed, our wedding, and obviously the kids. I even made Ben cry in this episode guys (which was totally not intentional!) We dive deep into parenting and how sometimes...

Guys, I’ve started something, I’m getting out of my comfort zone and have my very own podcast. Being new at this, don’t come at me. I promise what we have coming up and the guests are so much fun. Let’s do this, meet new people, get to know me, legit advice from professionals that we should all probably take. Life is chaotic and messy and so is this. Real conversations that you have with your friends and questions I probably shouldn’t ask. We are kicking it off with me, get to know me. I was...
