Today's ep was like a coffee catch up with girlfriends!!
Demi and Mel had the pleasure of chatting to Amy Finch, wife to Aussie cricket star, Aaron Finch who has travelled the world playing International Cricket. 
We learnt about the extended period of time Aaron is away for work and the logistical challenges they face running (and creating) a family around his work extensive work schedule. 
Amy disclosed the horrific cyber bullying they can endure with Aaron’s job being in front of a global audience, which included death threats to Aaron’s loved ones. 
Amy openly discussed their decision to not have children, as the life they lived had it's challenges to create stability and routine however to their surprise, Amy fell pregnant shortly after a life saving surgery and now has a beautiful 2 year old named Esther! 
Amy is down to earth, honest and so easy to chat to... We hope you love this ep!

Wow what a special episode! When we recorded this with Reece, he was in the depths of his journey navigating his Azoospermia diagnosis! Just days ago, Reece and (wife) Annabelle announced their pregnancy and we are so happy for them! 
Reece speaks openly about his mental after health finishing football and moving to Geelong, in addition to his Azoospermia diagnosis! 
You will be as shocked as us to hear about the statistics of male infertility! 
Reece now tries to spread the message of investigating the male quicker if you are unable to fall pregnant and the importance of your mental health!
Reece speaks so well on what can be a very uncomfortable conversation to have and we are so thankful he gave us his time today to chat!

#39 Reece Conca - Azoospermia and infertility

Todays episode is proudly Brought to you by Womb Nutrition and The Beauty Company. 
This is Tom’s first time chatting publicly about parenting as he is mostly is interviewed about mental health and his infamous decision to walk away from AFL and “give up” $2million to end his contract at The Bulldogs. Tom has a (nearly) 2 year old daughter named Armani, and a wife named Anna. Although Demi couldn’t help but quiz Tom on his incredibly interesting and unique AFL career, we get to learn about Tom’s life before football, a bit about his own parents “parenting styles” and how that shaped him, as well as his insightful goals and thoughts about his own parenting style and the importance of a solid relationship. Tom mentioned he is generally misunderstood as arrogant and felt that being an overachiever as a child can at times be detrimental and shameful. Tom is an incredibly intelligent, logical and down to earth guy who is able to articulate and explain things so clearly! We learnt so much from him! Post football, Tom has released a book 'Nowhere to Hide', works in the mental health space with Work Safe and has a full-time job in football analytics! We hope you love this chat as much as we did!! 


Ep 38: Tom Boyd no 1 draft pick in the AFL, left the system due to mental health, now father, speaks about parenting publically for the 1st time

Here, you can find a quality curation of the best baby brands on the planet and everything a new parent needs to feel good, prepared and supported when raising a child.
An inspiring business chat that we recorded in Phoebe's flagship boutique store in Armadale. We chatted in depth about where the idea of The Memo came from and how they found such a gap in the market when it came to giving parents-to-be / parents more than just product information, instead they provide an experience and education when shopping and handpick key essential items instead of stocking everything making it a little less overwhelming for parents to making decisions on things.

You will be able to feel Lorinska's upbeat energy through your speakers! She is so fun and we loved having her in the studio! 
Lorinska is a mum of 3, Penelope, Florence and Edward. 
Lorinska famously leads a glamorous life but chats to us about how her perfect world flipped upside down after giving birth to her 3rd child, Edward! All her parenting tricks and techniques that worked for her older two "perfectly behaved" girls, doesn't work on her darling son! She chats about how she could never relate to sleep deprived parents and has since drastically changed the way she speaks about parenting. 
We chat about her "overnight" fame with the hit series, Yummy Mummies and how life changed from it's debut to Netflix! 
Life is chaotic for Lorinska but she bares all to her loyal followers and loves every second of her the challenges! 


You will leave this chat feeling so uplifted after a good giggle, like we did!
