Gen Muir On Catching Your Toddler On The Emotional Climb
mardi 1 juillet 2025 • Duration 01:09:41
Toothbrushing is a hostage situation. Getting dressed is a full-body workout. And don’t even mention the wrong coloured cup. If your three-nager is melting down 87 times a day, this episode is your permission slip to exhale.
Kee and Kelly are joined by the oracle herself, Gen Muir, to help us make sense of the chaos. From emotional “climbs” to why the whinging gets under our skin (spoiler: it’s about us too), Gen explains what’s actually normal and how to set boundaries without setting fire to your own sanity.

I Don’t Want To Parent The Way I Was Parented
mardi 24 juin 2025 • Duration 47:18
Ever caught yourself mid-meltdown and thought, “Oh no… I’ve turned into my mum”? In this episode, Kee opens up about the confronting realisation that breaking toxic family patterns is so much harder than it sounds - especially when you're sleep-deprived, overstimulated, and raising a tiny dictator. She and Kelly unpack the parenting styles they grew up with, how those experiences shaped them, and the values they’re trying to pass on to their own kids. There’s a powerful three-question exercise in here that’ll make you think differently about your own upbringing, and remind you that even when it feels like you’re getting it wrong, the fact that you care means you’re already doing better than you think.

Wait, What Do You Mean That Toy Isn't Safe!?
mardi 18 février 2025 • Duration 52:25
What if the toys you trust for your baby aren't actually safe?
In this eye-opening episode, Kel and Kee chat with Sh*tter and small business owner Kate, who uncovered some shocking truths about Australian toy safety while launching her baby brand, Billie Frank The Label.
Like most parents, Kate assumed that baby toys and accessories sold in Australia had to pass strict safety testing. But as she navigated the regulations for her own products, she realised just how many businesses skip proper testing - putting infants and toddlers at serious risk. Now, she's on a mission to spread the word.

My Son and I Shared a Womb
mardi 11 février 2025 • Duration 57:20
This is the kind of story that stops you in your tracks. When Kristy Bryant lost her uterus after a traumatic birth, she thought her dream of carrying another child was over. But in an extraordinary Australia-first clinical trial, she received a uterus transplant - from her own mother, Michelle. That same womb, which once carried Kristy, gave her the chance to carry her son, Henry.
Kristy takes us inside this groundbreaking procedure, sparing no details. With raw honesty, she shares the highs, the heartbreak, and the deeply personal (and at times graphic) realities of this medical milestone, all made possible by the ultimate mother-daughter bond.
