Life Uncut

It's that time of the week again Lifers, it's Therapy Thursday and we have a very special one ready to serve up!

Britt is away on a much deserved holiday - and today its Laura and Matty J taking the reins answering all your relationship questions!

Here are the questions we tackle in todays episode :

• My partner is going to a bucks party where there are going to be strippers and I don't want him to go, am I over reacting?
• Are you always attracted to each other?
• My husband and I have different fighting styles, he avoids conflict and I need reassurance which ends in our fights escalating even if the original fight is over something inconsequential - how can we resolve this?
• I need to break up with my boyfriend.... should I do it before or after Christmas?

Lifers, today we have one of the most serious and most harrowing episodes we have ever done, but it is something we feel is so important to speak about.

One in four will experience violence at the hands of an intimate partner and the most dangerous place for a women is in the house. This statistic unfortunately rang true for Dr Angela Jay when she was attacked in her own home by an ex partner. It was 2016 when Angela decided to download tinder and start dating again after ending things with her husband. 

That is where she met a funny, intelligent, tall dark and handsome man by the name of Paul Lambert. Things started off well, but went downhill rapidly, so Angela ended things. It wasn't long before he would try and kill her.

Angela bravely talks us through what happened to her and discusses the signs she missed, life after the attack and where you can go for help if you are experiencing any form of domestic violence or if you need to exit a toxic relationship.

Hey Lifers!

Yes it's Thursday but we are delivering you our big, juicy, meaty Tuesday episode today! (blame this weeks episode switcheroo on the fact we thought Laura was going in to labour - valid excuse 😂) but boy do we have a positively good one for you!

After Laura's pregnancy scare we talk a bit about... well..... pregnancy and touch on the really wonderful news Dan Andrews recently shared around miscarriage and the solace this change in legislation will bring to grieving women and families.

Britt is sharing her egg freezing journey with us all, then it's time for some accidentally unfiltered stories.

On the menu today - TOXIC POSITIVITY!

What is that you say? Well we are glad you asked!

The phrase “toxic positivity” refers to the concept that keeping positive, happy and upbeat are the only feeling you should have and is the right way to live your life. It means only focusing on positive things and rejecting anything that may trigger negative emotions. We are currently seeing this everywhere in life. Sounds great right!?

The fact is, when you deny or avoid unpleasant and negative emotions, you actually make them bigger .

We unpack that and more so strap in folks.

Therapy Thursday is here!!  Even though it’s only Tuesday!

We very occasionally mix up our weeks programming when life throws us a curve ball annnnnd that’s exactly what happened. Laura’s needed a bit of R & R with this pregnancy, so Britt searched high and low for a special replacement but time was of the essence... sooooo we got Matt. Lolz.

Naaa we love having Matt on to give his very wise male perspective on things! 

This week Britt and Matt chat about picking up in a bar, that is, how to do it and how to give the impression you’re open to it. 

One poor lass has already been through hell when her fiancé cheated and left her for her cousin (jerk) but now she’s expected to go to their wedding... sorry WHAT!?

Talking about your exes on a first date. Is the first date etiquette!? Should it be avoided? Should you be offended if they choose not to talk about it?

Christmas is just around the corner and we should be excited to be with loved ones! Unless of course your partner hasn’t invited you... is this as bad as it sounds or can couples do their own thing over the holidays? 

If you loved the episode please hit 5 starts, leave a review if you’re feeling extra generous and share the love, because, well, we love love x

Today we have the absolute powerhouse that is Sabrina Frederick joining us and we are so excited to bring you this episode!! 

Sabrina is not only an elite athlete paving the way for women in AFL, but she is also keeping us glued to our screens as we watch the highly addictive yet controversial reality TV show that is SAS Australia. 

Sabrina describes herself with the simple yet powerful statement 'I’m a Black woman in a same sex relationship working in a male dominated sport" and we talk about all of that.

We chat all things AFL, how Sabrina got into the sport, she tells us all about her fiance, how they met and who proposed to whom. Then the scene that divided the nation, the boxing match between Sabrina and Nick "honey badger' Cummins, we find out what really went down, along with some other SAS goss of course! Like who she would take into battle if she could only choose one person, and it may not be who you think!

Sabrina opens up and talks about her experiences and her thoughts on the Black Lives Matter movement and some of the issues she faced growing up. 

All in all this was such a beautiful conversation and we can all learn a lot from the inspiration that is Sabrina Frederick. 

You can follow Sabrina @sabzizzle

It's that time of the week guys! Where you hit us with your deepest and most troubling problems and we give you our deepest and sometimes troubling answers. JOKES our answers are always very heartfelt, considered and come from a place of love and experience. 

Today we have an international student whose boyfriend just pulled the pin on their partnership visa, meaning she wouldn't easily be able to stay, but he still wants to be with her. Is this cool? Should she stay? Should she give up? Should she go and marry someone else for a visa!? (Of course not don't be silly that is very illegal) 

Then a relatively simple yet wildly common question, "How soon is too soon to move on? Should you get under someone to get over someone?" (if the man in question has a last name Hemsworth than yes, the answer is always yes, get under)

Then we have a woman that found something in her husband's email that you never want to see. When and how can she confront him, especially when she was searching through his email to start with!

We absolutely LOVE ask uncut so please keep your questions rolling in! (literally any topic is welcome)

We are so excited about today’s episode Lifers!!

We have the ridiculously qualified and ridiculously lovely Dr Cheryl Phua in to chat all things fertility!!

Cheryl works at Genea - a world leading fertility clinic, and specialises in infertility and reproductive endocrinology (CREI), including female and male factor infertility, reproductive endocrinology, adolescent gynaecology, andrology and menopause management and is very active in the research department (whilst we were interviewing Cheryl she was also on call to deliver babies, so there’s not much this woman can’t do in the world of fertility!) 

There is something for every age and stage of life in this episode as we talk IVF, egg freezing, costs, contraception, infertility, endometriosis, PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) and more. We learnt so much and we really think you will too. We want you to know that you are not alone no matter where you are in your journey and that help is not inaccessible!! 

If you know someone who may benefit from this episode (let’s be real, we feel like all women can) send it their way and share us in your stories!! We love seeing that and this is an important one!

A big thank you to today’s sponsor @geneafertility - leading the way in fertility advances for 30 years!

They are helping us to get the fertility word out! If you need any help in any of the above or anything that we spoke out throughout the episode you can find out more by going to https://www.genea.com.au/fertility-collective/making-babies

We hope you get as much out of this as we did!
