NEW! "The 40's Stretch" - A new season from Stretch Marks Podcast

We are stretching - this time into our 40's.


There comes a point for many of us where we slide into this “sandwich” generation of caring for young and caring for old.

And somewhere between the weight, worry and love for them all, we can ignore our bodies whispers - but as my guest today Kellie Billings explains, you can only ignore them for so long. 


Kellie is in her early 40’s, she's the Beauty Editor with Social and Personal Magazine, co-host of the Skin in the Game podcast, a mum of 3 girls and daughter of an incredible mother with alzheimers. 


And in August her body said no more and she needed urgent surgery for a perforated stomach ulcer while in Portugal on holiday. 

We talk about caring for her mam with Alzheimers, signs her body was not ok, and the lessons learned from her emergency health scare.
