Hello, everyone!

Today, we sit down with Ryan Jon, the co-host of The Toni and Ryan Podcast. You might remember Ruby’s beautiful conversation with Ryan’s co-host and business partner, Toni Lodge, last year. Well, today, it’s Ryan’s turn!

In this conversation, Ryan shares his adoption story, what it was like to attend his birth mother’s funeral, and reconnect with his biological father later in life. He also speaks about the moment he met his beautiful wife, Bridgette, and how special it has been to start a family of his own.

Today, Michelle sits down with her beautiful mother, Vicky Andrews.

As you might've heard in last week’s episode, Vicky was recently told she has incurable brain cancer, which carries an average prognosis of 12 to 14 months. Almost immediately after that diagnosis, Vicky turned her mind to opportunity and legacy; to how she can spend the rest of her days loving her favourite people with all her might, as well as speak to the importance of communication and speech, all while raising awareness for brain cancer.

Today, I speak to Jemma Sbeg, the host of The Psychology of Your 20s podcast. Jemma recorded her first episode in the back of her car—today, her show is adored by hundreds of thousands of people worldwide. And at 25, Jemma knows first-hand just how confusing and chaotic your 20s can be.

In this conversation, Jemma speaks about the moment she quit her full-time job to pursue her passion project, why Ruthie Rodgers gifted her a handwritten letter at The River Cafe, how her grandmother’s love story has shaped her own outlook on love, how to date in your 20s and why she’ll never take her mental health for granted again.
