Trigger warning: This episode includes conversations around pregnancy and some challenging health experiences. If you’d prefer to sit this one out, that’s completely okay. Take care of yourself.

After an unexpected two-week break, the girls are back with a big old catch up and some very special news! From their beautiful best friend’s wedding to life behind the scenes, there is lots to unpack!

Lilli shares some very special news with you all (you heard it here first!) and opens up about the journey she has been navigating over the past few months. This is a raw and honest chat about what really happens during those first few months of growing life — the joy, the challenges and everything that comes with it. 

The girls also chat about the truly questionable Mother’s Day marketing that somehow has made an appearance again this year. One more time for the people in the back — Mum’s are not slobs! They don’t want polyester robes and Anko Pajamas — they just want to feel appreciated, seen and loved.

And finally, we want to take a moment to acknowledge all the mums this weekend — the new mums, the mums-to-be, those longing to become mums, those missing their mums, and those who find this day tough. However you’re feeling this Mother’s Day, we see you and we’re holding space for you.

It’s good to be back Dirty Girls — we have missed you!

In this week’s episode, Lilli and Emily cover all the essentials — from quick getaways to fashion in the changing season and everything in between. 

The girls recap Emily’s whirlwind weekend away — complete with airport antics, unexpected expenses and a few too many laughs. From bidding on flight upgrades to people watching at its finest, they share the beauty of the 24-hour holiday and why short trips are sometimes exactly what you need (and how to accidentally make them feel luxe). 

The girls move to a thoughtful discussion on fashion in the shifting season and what’s actually worth buying right now. They reflect on finding the balance between comfort and confidence, and how building a capsule wardrobe has brought more joy to their wardrobes (but maybe a bit less fun?). 

Plus the girls chat through their Easter long weekend plans, family traditions and the joy of creating rituals as life continues to grow and shift.

In this week’s episode, Lilli and Emily catch up on all things screen time, storytelling and the slow shift to the cooler months. From reflections on what’s been living rent-free on their screens to conversations about friendship dynamics, parenting shows, and the joy of a good dopamine dressing moment, the girls dive deep into the things that have been on their minds. 

They chat about the shows that have captivated them lately and how delayed gratification can sometimes make a story all the more rewarding. The girls unpack friendship dynamics in their thirties — how easy it is to fall into the catch-up trap and the importance of creating new memories rather than just rehashing old ones. 

We hope you enjoy!

In this week’s episode, Emily and Lilli explore the fall of the ‘girl boss’ era—a time that dominated much of their early twenties and career beginnings, where working yourself to the bone was worn like a badge of honour. They reflect on how hustle culture was glorified, sold to us as empowerment, and how productivity was tied to our worth. From side hustles and start-ups to full-time jobs and passion projects, it felt like the only way to succeed was to do more — more hours, more effort, more visibility, more pressure.

But now, as they settle further into their thirties, the narrative is shifting. Emily and Lilli talk about the growing rejection of that relentless grind, and the quiet power in doing enough. They unpack the societal pressure to love your job, the myth that turning your passion into your career is the ultimate goal, and the reality that many people are stepping back from burnout and choosing slower, more balanced paths.

It’s a thoughtful, honest chat about ambition, identity, and the beauty in redefining success on your own terms — whether that’s climbing the ladder, building something of your own or simply finding peace in doing work that supports the life you want to live.

In this week’s episode, Lilli and Emily dive deep into the world of beauty, skincare and self-perception in your thirties. As the girls become more aware of what actually works and what’s just clever marketing, they reflect on their skincare journeys and how the approach has changed over the years. In this episode, they unpack everything from the products they swear by to the growing influence of injectables.

As they navigate this new area of skincare awareness, they discuss the benefits of ingredients like retinol, hyaluronic acid and vitamin C, and how they work to support our skin as we age. Should you start Botox in your 20s and 30s to prevent wrinkles, or can a solid skincare routine do the trick? With the rise of cosmetic injectables, more people are opting for this earlier than ever — but is it necessary?

As we get old, the changes in our skin become more noticeable and with that, comes a whole new set of choices. The girls talk about what happens to our skin as we age, the increasing popularity of injectables and the pressure that comes with it. They reflect on the societal expectations around ageing, the impact of social media in shaping our beauty ideals, and the fine line between personal empowerment and external pressure.

Beyond the science and trends, this conversation is really about how we choose to engage with beauty in a way that really aligns with our values. Whether you’re all about a dedicated skincare routine, love regular injectables or simply trying to make a choice, they’re breaking it all down — without judgment, just honest conversations about what feels right for you.
