Breaking Beige NZ

In this weeks episode, we discuss overwhelm and pressure - work, kids, relationships, anxiety and what other people think of us.

A vulnerable but important topic that affects many of us as we try to strike the "balance" in a busy life.

This week, we pull up a comfy spot on the couch, crack a couple of Pals and talk Marriage. What we thought it would be, what it is how it's going.

This episode was prompted after someone asked the question "Does Kate REALLY love her husband as much as she says she does on Breaking Beige?" The answer: a large and enthusiastic "YES!"

This weeks’ episode features Special Guest Fitstop Trainer, Caity Williamson.

We chat to Caity about her career, body building competitions and she shares her hot tips about how to train as a female and as a busy mum.

Caity is a powerhouse of knowledge and we loved having her on the poddy.

Kate heard us say “exercise” so she popped on her hottest @p.e.nation outfit and hightailed it for the door (nah jokes, she was on childcare duty - love ya Kate )

It's a lighthearted one this week as we discuss all of the things we just don't get.

From aliens to dry cleaning, Dad shoes to the ocean, join us for a drink on the couch and a lol with the girls.

This week, we discuss goals - personal ones, professional ones and everything in between. We talk about how we go about achieving what we want in life and when it's ok to muddle and enjoy the "now".

Side note: it's ALWAYS ok to muddle and live in the "here and now".

In this weeks episode, we discuss all things body image; how we feel about our bodies and how we want to positively impact the body image feelings our children will have - now and in the future.

Body image can be a really controversial subject so we hope you enjoy and find some love and acceptance in who you are and how you feel about yourself.

In this episode, we chat with Holistic Health Coach and friend, Becca Smith of The Well Being

Becca is a beautiful human (inside and out) is an absolute powerhouse of knowledge when it comes to everything health and well-being and Becca most certainly walks the talk, she’s also got a wicked sense of humour on her (and you know we’re all about that!!), and she makes a MEAN sweet treat that is nutritious AND delicious - which we gobbled up in .2 seconds.

Get ready for some goodness and practical wellness advice from Becca, sure to power us all up out of the winter slump!!

In this episode (filmed amongst the chaos of the school holidays), we decided to pour ourselves a drink and have a night time chat about friendships - when they're epic and when it's time to let go. We dive into being there when your pals need you and vice versa.

We also go entirely off track and let the gin take us to wherever we need to go. Kate's husband, Bash makes a surprise appearance and Producer Sam gorges himself on the snack platter.

We hope you enjoy this episode, best served with a drink of your choice.

This week we have a very special guest at the table!

We have the legendary Monique Neeson from ShearWarmth joining us, sharing her story about how she turned her wool woes into a cracking business on her family farm.

Monique is truly an inspiration both as a wife and mother, but also as a business woman. Having already been featured on Country Calendar, Sunday and Seven Sharp, we were pretty lucky to have her grace us with her fabulous presence, but it’s her views on parenting, marriage and business that really got us excited.

Have a listen to her story, and her very special advice on keeping the spark alive and making big decisions in the household!

Massive thank you to Monique for taking the time to hang at the table with us.

This week, we are answering all of your skin care questions with our Skin Care Queen, Renee. We cover everything from aging to acne, retinol to sunscreen and everything in between.

While we'd all love to spend squallions on skin care and lush treatments, this isn't always possible so Renee offers some really practical tips and tricks to suit every budget and some beautiful advice that is also completely free.

Renee has over 20 years worth of experience in skin, and helped prep both Kate and Gina with their wedding skin to ensure they were both flawless and glowy unicorns for their special days. She still looks after them both to this day and is THE go-to skin woman you have been searching for. Enjoy!
