TLDR: Kee had words with a pharmacist, one step forward...three steps back, and something nice for your girls.

How do you balance being positive while grieving the body you once had? How can you move forward when an invisible illness leaves you feeling stuck? And how common is chronic illness, really? This week, Kee and Lucy support Anon through a mental and physical rough patch.

TLDR: Kee and Lucy's first fight, a wife and mother's dilemma about infidelity and 30 minutes just for you.

1 in 3 Australians have thought about cheating on their partner, so how many of them actually do it? Why is an office romance so sexy? And should you tell your partner that you cheated? This week, Kee and Lucy navigate a Wigatoni's tornado about a husband, a baby, a mortgage, an ex and a colleague.

TLDR: Kee wanted to make a vision board but Lucy didn't want to do craft, so here's three feelings we're going to (hopefully) feel in 2025.

I’m Glowing Out!

TLDR: there's a new beauty retailer on the block, exactly what we're reaching for this summer, and Kee finally found a new favourite curl cream.

Atomica just opened the doors to its first store, so does it fill the gap between the high-end beauty retailers and the convenience of a grocery store? Summer is upon us which means it's prime time for simplifying our beauty routines. And a lip balm so good that Lucy bought it twice. This month, Kee and Lucy unzip their summer makeup bags and share their hot weather non-negotiables.

TLDR: Kee's birth plan, an office oversharer, and a podcast to spice up your feed.

Why do we feel so vulnerable after opening up? How do you connect without oversharing? And why do we judge ourselves while praising others for their openness? This week, Kee and Lucy unpack a workplace dilemma and talk about the times that they shared too soon.

I’m Glowing Out!

TLDR: The skincare brand with a 100% retention rate, our biggest beauty flops and an eyeshadow stick that actually sticks.

In just one week, BUBBLE became the #2 skincare brand in Priceline. So, do we rate the products? Did we just find a luxe lip oil under $20? (yes). And we've had a few beauty doozies in our time, but we've also hit some home runs. This month, Kee and Lucy walk you through the good, the bad and the scalp bleach.

TLDR: Kee's confidence has taken a hit, infrequent and one-sided sex, and a pillow spray that (probably) works.

How long is too long to go without sex? Can mental health have an impact on intimacy? And how do you address the elephant in the bedroom? This week, Kee and Lucy help Anon prepare for a conversation about connection and putting the theory into practice.

TLDR: Lucy's big blunder, the pressure of being a bride, and a playlist to bring your heart rate back down. 

Why are brides still up against toxic body-image ideals? Will diet culture ever leave the wedding industry alone? And how can we be less critical of ourselves?This week, Lucy and Kee explore the unspoken expectations when it comes to 'the big day'.
