Welcome to Melodramatic vibes with Molly & Maddie 💖

This is the introduction to the first of many many yarns with your two older sisters. We talk all about life, being in our 20's, dating and navigating this age that all humans find to be a rollercoaster of experiences and emotions.

There will be laughs, tears and lots of delusional chat because for real, were both bloody melodramatic and over the top about everything.

We'll be focusing on specific topics each episode but are open to feedback (all nice pls) and suggestions. There may even be some more humans joining for chats too!

Think of this as your easy listening on your drive home, fortnightly on Mondays x

Oops, I’m back! Sorry about the unintentional 3-month break... Ya girl had surgery, went on holiday and just slept a whole lot. BUT I'm here and I want to welcome you (belatedly) to 2023!

In this episode, I talk all about 2023 so far for me. I dive into a Holiday recap, my new career pathway and challenges around answering a really important question. I teach you how to write priorities and intentions, how to create an epic vision board and FINALLY (somewhat) share the 2023 plan for the hard way podcast!

I hope y'all started the new year with your nearest and dearest, and for those of you who didn't, I'm sending an abundance of love an strength. Aotearoa, times are tough atm and I cannot express enough to be kind, share the love and help out where you can.

Welcome to the Inspirational Wāhine Series where I get some incredible Wāhine on to share their stories, challenges and triumphs…
This week I have the epic and amazing Azura Lane on!!! You may know her from the Flava drive show from 2 pm-7 pm each weekday... But she's more than just a radio host.

The chat with Azura was more than we could've ever imagined, diving deep into radio life, mindset shifts, how to become something great and the power of giving back! She's an incredibly inspirational queen, providing us with so much wisdom throughout the episode.

I know it's a long one but it's so very great - make sure you listen to the whole ep & thanks again miss Azura Lane xx

Welcome to the Inspirational Wāhine Series where I get some incredible Wāhine on to share their stories, challenges and triumphs…
This week I have the incredible Ellen Handley on!!! A gorgeous human who I crossed paths with at the gym and I'm so stoked I did.

Ellen talks to us all about what it's like working in the fitness world and how she got to where she is! She dives into some of the lowest lows of her life that have now made her the incredible person she is, with the holistic outlook she holds. We chat together about the gym community and ways to find confidence within yourself. This is one of the most incredibly inspiring chats I've  ever had and I thank Ellen for coming on and being so vulnerable x

Welcome to the Inspirational Wāhine Series where I get some incredible Wāhine on to share their stories, challenges and triumphs…
This week is f*cking Riiki Reid, Aotearoa's hottest new talent. Riiki has spared us some minutes in her busy life to talk all about music, being in the industry and how she got to where she is today. She shares some ongoing challenges she faces on the daily and self-help that has assisted with overcoming a rough mindset. A Wāhine who is an incredible inspiration and I feel honoured to have chatted with the most wholesome yet fierce little lady. Thanks, Riiki - remember us when you take over the world!
