In today’s episode, we’re taking a breather from the deep chats and diving into something a little more fun - The Traitors. Stacey’s got Rosie fully hooked, and we’re unpacking why this show (and a bit of trashy TV in general) might actually be good for your wellbeing. From giving your brain a break to making space for more joy, we’re all about reclaiming downtime without the guilt. Because sometimes the most healing thing you can do…is get invested in someone wearing a cloak.

Body image isn’t something that magically gets better with age. In this raw episode, we share our struggles with body image over the years - how they’ve evolved, and how they still pop up today. We’re diving into our personal journeys with our appearance, self-acceptance, and how we handle the inevitable bad body image days. This one's for anyone who's ever felt disconnected from their own reflection and needs a little reminder they’re not alone.

Trigger Warnings: eating disorders, body image struggles

Let’s be real: adulting is a lot. In this episode, we unpack the weight of responsibility - everything from bills to big decisions - and chat about the pressure to “have it all together.” We dive into our experiences with parents and support systems, and why being a grown-up can sometimes feel like you’re just winging it solo.

Oh, and we also reveal our least favourite jobs around the house and in life admin (prepare to laugh and feel very seen).

Is it ADHD? Is it anxiety? Or are we just permanently knackered with 46 things on the go? In this one, we chat about being “all or nothing,” the chaos behind the calm, and how getting curious about our patterns (instead of just powering through) can be a total game-changer. No fluff—just real talk, plenty of laughs, and a few lightbulb moments.

In this episode, we get real about our unique spiritual and religious journeys and how we've found our own ways to connect with the universe (spoiler: it's not all crystals and pendulums). From nature walks to moon-bathing and some seriously quirky rituals, we talk about how spirituality is personal and doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s. We also bare it all when it comes to our own religious experiences from Stacey's experience of mormonism to Rosie's life-changing moment that made her question her whole religious belief structure.

Trigger Warnings:

- Mentions of mental health (anxiety)

- Conversations about extreme religion

- Mentions of cancer (personal experience)

Why do women feel so much pressure to look the part—whether it’s in the workplace, as a mum, or just walking out the damn door? In this episode, we’re getting real about society’s exhausting beauty standards, the mental load of having to be presentable, and the fine line between self-care and self-criticism.

From Stacey’s experience in the beauty industry to Rosie’s journey with body image struggles, we’re unpacking why women are expected to constantly ‘keep up’—and why men just… aren’t. We’re also diving into the ridiculous double standards around aging, the fashion ‘rules’ we’re told to follow (and why they’re bullshit), and the moment we both realised we were done living by other people’s standards.

So, when was the last time you left the house without a second thought about your appearance? If you hesitated, this episode is for you.

Because true beauty? It’s in authenticity—not in perfect hair and flawless makeup.

Divorce. Breakups. Starting over. It’s messy, it’s emotional, and let’s be real—it’s fucking hard. In this episode, we’re getting raw and real about our own experiences with relationships falling apart, the stigma around divorce, and why self-worth is everything when it comes to love. We’re unpacking the pain, the lessons, and the freedom that comes with walking away from something that no longer serves you. Whether you’re in the middle of a breakup, healing from the past, or just wondering what it really means to build a healthy relationship, this one’s for you.

Because here’s the truth: Your happiness isn’t selfish. Taking risks is scary, but so is staying stuck. And you deserve a life that actually makes you feel alive.

Ever met someone and just clicked? In this episode, we’re sharing how we went from total strangers to soul sisters, diving into the magic of female friendships and why they’re so important. We’re also chatting about building relationships (of all kinds) on shared values and why self-development can sometimes feel isolating. If you’ve ever felt like personal growth was pulling you away from old connections, this one’s for you. Grab a cuppa, settle in, and let’s talk about finding—and keeping—your people.

It’s finally here! Welcome to Been There, Felt That — the podcast where we get real about life, feelings, and all the things we’ve been through (and felt). In this first episode, we’re introducing ourselves, sharing a little about what you can expect from the podcast, and giving you a taste of what’s to come. Think of this as a cosy chat over tea (or wine) before we dive into the juicy stuff.

A quick heads-up: we had a few little audio issues in this episode, but bear with us—we promise it’s all sorted for future episodes! Thanks for sticking with us, and we can’t wait to take you on this journey.
