Life Lately: Bestie Sesh- Inner Mean Girls, Body Image, Inner critic and Motherhood Madness.


Listen Later

In today’s episode of Life Lately on Life Academy, the girls sit down for a much needed Bestie Debrief Sesh. 💖🫶


Alicia opens up about body-image wobbles, overwhelm, and that delightful inner critic who seems to have no hobbies other than yelling at her (honestly… get a job). 😵‍💫 Both girls chat through the ever-present mother guilt that can eat us alive before we’ve even had our first coffee ☕️💀

Meanwhile, Dena is unpacking her insanely stacked schedule, juggling wild uni hours, retreats, makeup work, and motherhood. 🧠💄👶 She shares a few stories from her psych studies, the self retreat & gives us the inside scoop on her recent makeup masterclass, which she absolutely loved teaching.


And yes… in true on-brand fashion, Dena found herself back in hospital for her back (again, EDS girlies unite) 🏥🙃. The update wasn’t great, but she’s rolling with it. Her mental health has been solid lately, and she’ll take physical pain over emotional pain any day.


The girls get real about the desire for another baby 👶❤️ and all the reasons it completely terrifies them. Alicia talks through some unsettling body-image thoughts, while Dena tries to tell Alicia’s inner mean girl to go F#&K herself (with love, of course). ✋😤

We all need to turn down F%$KED FM the radio station in our heads that literally no one subscribed to.
