This is a love story that’s weathered the highest of highs and the challenges of long-distance lows. Amy Sheppard of the hit band Sheppard, joins us on The Heart Of It alongside her husband, Lachlan, to share the inside story of their relationship. They open up about the early days, where romance had to compete with global smash hits, appearances on Ellen, brushes with Justin Bieber, and more than a little doubt.

Now, they’re happily married, more in love than ever, and are embarking on a brand-new journey to become parents through IVF. And, as if that wasn’t enough, Amy is celebrating another huge milestone, her debut solo album and we’re the very first to talk to her about it.

Cam & Ali are flying solo this week and jumping back down the rabbit hole of their proposal and first date. This is quite a contentious topic between the two as they both don't agree with each others versions of events.

Today on the podcast, we’re joined by a power couple who openly admit they’ve done everything backwards.

From a whirlwind romance to having a child, even buying engagement rings months before actually getting engaged, nothing about Jack and Amanda Delosa’s story is conventional.

In this episode, entrepreneur and podcast host Amanda speaks candidly about her experience with postnatal depression and why finding the right partner can feel harder than it looks.

Jack, one of Australia’s leading entrepreneurs, shares how healing his inner child has been more transformative than any high-performance mindset training he’s ever undertaken.

This is a raw, honest conversation about what it truly takes to build a lifelong partnership and how to weather the storms that inevitably come.

Our Nova Podcast cousins, Jadé Tunchy and Lachie Brycki, join us this week on The Heart Of It for a refreshingly candid conversation that goes far beyond their viral TikToks and huge social media following.

We rewind to their childhoods, dive into cultural traditions, and explore the beautiful (and sometimes chaotic) shift into parenthood.

From their hilarious first meeting at a nightclub (where Lachie jokes Jadé was “stalking” him), to the moment Lachie discovered his dad had been hiding a second language his whole life, to Jadé opening up about bullying as a kid. It was clear their were so many layers to this gorgeous couple.

Their story is grounded in humour, respect, and a whole lot of love. And is proof that not taking yourselves too seriously might just be the key to making it work.

You probably know Liam Stapleton from Nova’s Ben, Liam & Belle show or from his viral impressions that light up TikTok and Instagram. But today, we’re joined by someone who knows the man behind the mic better than anyone… his wife, Sarah.

In this episode, Sarah spills the tea on Liam’s relentless persistence before they finally got together, how she copes with the non-stop Borat impressions at home, and the infamous radio love triangle story that may have gone a little too far. This one’s equal parts hilarious and heartwarming, with Liam's retelling of the romantic chaos of their engagement.

We’re flipping the script in today’s episode with something a little different, we’re answering your questions. Producer X (aka Xander, as we know and love him) has been collecting some listener questions, and today we’re diving in.

One question that really made us stop and think was: If you could do your wedding over again, would you? The answer? Yes, but not for the reasons you might expect. What we’d change just might surprise you...

Pete Cunningham and Anthony Ikin are the definition of a power couple. From the global stage of So You Think You Can Dance to producing one of TV’s biggest reality franchises, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, their résumés are as impressive as their partnership.

Now, they’re taking on their biggest project yet: launching their own events and entertainment company, Glo Events, all whilst being new parents.

Talent, love and ambition. These two have it all. And trust us, their story will leave you feeling inspired.
