We constantly asked the same 3 00:00:29,121 --> 00:00:31,841 Speaker 1: question over and over again. We never run out of content. 4 00:00:32,081 --> 00:00:34,160 Speaker 1: It's funny because we've been doing this podcast for how 5 00:00:34,161 --> 00:00:34,801 Speaker 1: many years? 6 00:00:34,961 --> 00:00:38,281 Speaker 2: Well, Elsie's now nine, and I think she was three 7 00:00:38,281 --> 00:00:41,480 Speaker 2: and a half when we started. Remember, because when we 8 00:00:41,521 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 2: first started, the way that we met was me being 9 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,921 Speaker 2: late to lunch. You asked me why. I was like, because, religiously, 10 00:00:47,961 --> 00:00:50,401 Speaker 2: you're always on time and I'm always late. 11 00:00:50,561 --> 00:00:53,201 Speaker 1: Not in a like why are you low? No, like 12 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:55,441 Speaker 1: you're asking me like, what happened? What happened? 13 00:00:56,041 --> 00:00:58,041 Speaker 2: And I had nothing. I was just like, my kid 14 00:00:58,241 --> 00:01:02,001 Speaker 2: was being an asshole and I'm late because of my child. 15 00:01:02,321 --> 00:01:04,801 Speaker 1: Yeah. Sorry, And I think you actually called her in 16 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 1: our and I went, oh, that's funny. I've got this 17 00:01:07,641 --> 00:01:10,681 Speaker 1: idea for podcasts. I think that'd be perfect. 18 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 2: I just had to find the right person that has 19 00:01:13,761 --> 00:01:15,761 Speaker 2: the same similar mentality to me. 20 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: It's gonna be called am I a bad mummy? Okay 21 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:18,801 Speaker 1: with that? Yeah, I'm in. 22 00:01:18,961 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 2: I'm in. 23 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,680 Speaker 1: Am I a bad mum? For wanting more me time? 24 00:01:32,961 --> 00:01:36,721 Speaker 2: Well, I have to say, Katie, tables have turned a 25 00:01:36,801 --> 00:01:39,641 Speaker 2: little bit yeah, I was away a fair bit there 26 00:01:39,721 --> 00:01:42,361 Speaker 2: for a while, like I was planning trips for myself 27 00:01:42,441 --> 00:01:45,281 Speaker 2: and doing things and all the rest. And now I'm 28 00:01:45,321 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 2: in the other way where I feel like I haven't 29 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,921 Speaker 2: gone anywhere for so long, and you've been taking trips 30 00:01:51,081 --> 00:01:53,041 Speaker 2: minus children. Yeah. 31 00:01:53,041 --> 00:01:57,121 Speaker 1: Well, when we first met, and like we first became friends, 32 00:01:57,361 --> 00:01:59,881 Speaker 1: you would say often about going away on your own 33 00:02:00,041 --> 00:02:02,961 Speaker 1: or a girl's trip, even like going for dinner by yourself, 34 00:02:03,041 --> 00:02:05,681 Speaker 1: just gag by yourself. Yeah, And for me it was 35 00:02:05,721 --> 00:02:09,161 Speaker 1: like an alien concept, like we don't have any family 36 00:02:09,201 --> 00:02:12,241 Speaker 1: here minor in the UK. My husband Jay's are in Perth, 37 00:02:12,321 --> 00:02:15,441 Speaker 1: so we've never really had anyone to have the girls 38 00:02:15,441 --> 00:02:17,921 Speaker 1: overnight or look after them, so we've always used babysitters. 39 00:02:17,921 --> 00:02:21,361 Speaker 1: So we've never actually gone at that time, gone for 40 00:02:21,401 --> 00:02:24,721 Speaker 1: a night. No, And we'd never even really thought about it. 41 00:02:24,721 --> 00:02:26,921 Speaker 1: It was like, if we're going away somewhere, or if 42 00:02:26,921 --> 00:02:28,441 Speaker 1: we're going on a trip or a holiday or a 43 00:02:28,441 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 1: weekend away, we take the kids. We took our kids 44 00:02:31,281 --> 00:02:34,281 Speaker 1: on our honeymoon, mate, Yeah, I know, I min, I 45 00:02:34,321 --> 00:02:37,041 Speaker 1: haven't had a honeymoon. Like I feel like, mate, you 46 00:02:37,081 --> 00:02:40,681 Speaker 1: are honeying out for And I remember at the time 47 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:42,601 Speaker 1: you saying, because I always thought it was a bit 48 00:02:42,641 --> 00:02:44,921 Speaker 1: of a selfish thing. I used to think, yeah, but 49 00:02:45,281 --> 00:02:47,481 Speaker 1: what about the kids, like they need us kind of thing. 50 00:02:47,841 --> 00:02:51,601 Speaker 1: And I remember you saying about how good it is 51 00:02:51,721 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 1: to be able to have your own time and also 52 00:02:55,321 --> 00:02:57,641 Speaker 1: for the kids to have their own time, and then 53 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,201 Speaker 1: how much you miss each other and how much better 54 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,481 Speaker 1: it is when then you get back and reconnect. 55 00:03:03,761 --> 00:03:05,001 Speaker 2: Yeah, for both teams. 56 00:03:05,361 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 1: Now, over the last few years, taken a leaf out 57 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: of your book when we have done those things. 58 00:03:11,281 --> 00:03:11,921 Speaker 2: Yeah, I love that. 59 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:16,361 Speaker 1: Now on the weekend, this is the first time I've 60 00:03:16,361 --> 00:03:18,481 Speaker 1: ever done this. We went to a health retreat. We 61 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 1: went to Eden Retreat down in Curumbin Valley in the 62 00:03:23,001 --> 00:03:23,681 Speaker 1: mid coast. 63 00:03:24,001 --> 00:03:25,481 Speaker 2: The battery pack recharges. 64 00:03:25,641 --> 00:03:29,961 Speaker 1: Honestly, rage, I have never had a better trip away 65 00:03:30,321 --> 00:03:33,721 Speaker 1: than I did Eden Health Retreat. Like, don't even get 66 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,601 Speaker 1: me started on the staff and the service and the like. 67 00:03:36,681 --> 00:03:38,361 Speaker 1: That's a whole other episode. 68 00:03:38,561 --> 00:03:42,281 Speaker 2: Now, can we mention your reservations to going Remember we 69 00:03:42,401 --> 00:03:44,961 Speaker 2: just had this. You were thinking, oh my gosh, but 70 00:03:45,041 --> 00:03:47,961 Speaker 2: I can't like three was it three or four nights? 71 00:03:48,121 --> 00:03:52,441 Speaker 2: No wine, no sugar, no caffeine, Nope, you were starting 72 00:03:52,481 --> 00:03:55,001 Speaker 2: to go like, should I try and like smuggle it in. 73 00:03:55,081 --> 00:03:58,481 Speaker 2: I'm like, no, I know you're going to go all in. 74 00:03:58,721 --> 00:04:00,841 Speaker 2: And then the second thing I was concerned about was 75 00:04:00,841 --> 00:04:02,441 Speaker 2: there's no phone reception. 76 00:04:02,681 --> 00:04:06,041 Speaker 1: Rage. Yeah, it's in the valley. There's no Wi Fi, 77 00:04:06,681 --> 00:04:10,521 Speaker 1: no phone reception, which gave me anxiety and the lead 78 00:04:10,601 --> 00:04:12,921 Speaker 1: up because I was like, oh my god, I'm gonna 79 00:04:12,961 --> 00:04:15,001 Speaker 1: have to, like all of us do it right. We 80 00:04:15,081 --> 00:04:18,041 Speaker 1: grab our phone. There's an advert comes on on the TV. 81 00:04:18,281 --> 00:04:20,961 Speaker 1: You grab your phone, have a little scroll. If I'm 82 00:04:21,161 --> 00:04:24,160 Speaker 1: in line at the post office, I get my phone 83 00:04:24,201 --> 00:04:26,921 Speaker 1: out and I'm checking emails and stuff. So for me 84 00:04:27,121 --> 00:04:28,801 Speaker 1: it was like, oh my god, I'm going to be 85 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,481 Speaker 1: lost without using my phone. It turned out to be 86 00:04:32,681 --> 00:04:38,961 Speaker 1: the biggest plus of just being there, being present, looking around, 87 00:04:39,361 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: enjoying nature, and not being able to check your phone, 88 00:04:42,681 --> 00:04:45,161 Speaker 1: not even in the room. In your room, no phones. 89 00:04:45,361 --> 00:04:48,561 Speaker 1: There's like one place down at reception where you can 90 00:04:48,601 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: go and you can check if you really need to. 91 00:04:51,641 --> 00:04:54,241 Speaker 1: So we did that once a day, but otherwise no 92 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,241 Speaker 1: text messages from the kids all day. Sorry, girls, I 93 00:04:57,281 --> 00:05:01,041 Speaker 1: won't have any Wi Fi. I won't have a girl out. Yeah, 94 00:05:01,241 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: Like I could literally cry about how amazing. I found 95 00:05:03,761 --> 00:05:07,161 Speaker 1: that weekend and how just good, you know, good food, 96 00:05:07,561 --> 00:05:11,681 Speaker 1: fresh air, nature, everything healthy, can imagine, meditation, all the 97 00:05:11,681 --> 00:05:13,801 Speaker 1: rest of it. We did the whole lot. But what 98 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,401 Speaker 1: I realized is that it was the first trip away. 99 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 1: You know, when you go on holiday, like you go 100 00:05:18,721 --> 00:05:20,601 Speaker 1: away and it's great and all the rest of it, 101 00:05:20,641 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 1: but then you're looking forward to going home. And I'm 102 00:05:22,801 --> 00:05:25,801 Speaker 1: such a homebody, we know, right. I loved COVID because 103 00:05:25,841 --> 00:05:28,441 Speaker 1: I loved just being at home. Cleaning covered, yeah, cleane 104 00:05:28,481 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: cover is just being at home, like I could just 105 00:05:30,521 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 1: be home, Like that's me. I didn't want to go home. 106 00:05:34,721 --> 00:05:38,361 Speaker 1: I had been present for three days and all I 107 00:05:38,401 --> 00:05:40,561 Speaker 1: had to do was think about myself. They don't even 108 00:05:40,601 --> 00:05:44,601 Speaker 1: give you your itinery or what's on until the night before 109 00:05:44,801 --> 00:05:47,361 Speaker 1: the day. They don't let you think too far ahead. 110 00:05:47,961 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: So if on the Friday you want to know what 111 00:05:50,561 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: you're doing on Sunday, you don't know yet because so yeah, 112 00:05:53,241 --> 00:05:55,561 Speaker 1: and we're planners, right with mummas. We plan, we know 113 00:05:55,601 --> 00:05:58,321 Speaker 1: what we're doing. So for it to be taken out 114 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,161 Speaker 1: of my hands and go okay, I just have to 115 00:06:00,161 --> 00:06:02,881 Speaker 1: think about what I'm doing right now. So good isn't 116 00:06:02,921 --> 00:06:06,481 Speaker 1: it which is, you know, lastly, either walking in nature 117 00:06:06,561 --> 00:06:09,681 Speaker 1: or laying under a blanket. It was amazing. 118 00:06:10,961 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 2: What do you think it is? Or was that made 119 00:06:13,801 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 2: you not want to go home? Was it the quietness 120 00:06:16,481 --> 00:06:17,121 Speaker 2: of your mind? 121 00:06:17,401 --> 00:06:20,161 Speaker 1: Yeah, because I'd been super stressed in the lead up, 122 00:06:20,201 --> 00:06:22,161 Speaker 1: Like it couldn't have come at a more perfect time. 123 00:06:23,281 --> 00:06:26,481 Speaker 1: And I think you don't realize how stressed you are 124 00:06:27,081 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: or how much you need that until you know, either 125 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,841 Speaker 1: you get sick or something happens with your body or 126 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,801 Speaker 1: like and it's like, okay, you need to just stop. 127 00:06:36,121 --> 00:06:39,681 Speaker 1: But yeah, I fully thought I would have even more 128 00:06:39,761 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: time to worry about my worries or to stress about 129 00:06:43,481 --> 00:06:46,161 Speaker 1: my stress. Yeah, I couldn't check the bank to see 130 00:06:46,201 --> 00:06:49,001 Speaker 1: if anyone had paid me, Like I couldn't, you know, 131 00:06:49,281 --> 00:06:51,681 Speaker 1: like that was all great. It was almost light. You're 132 00:06:51,681 --> 00:06:55,681 Speaker 1: in your own little world and the outside world can't 133 00:06:55,721 --> 00:06:58,121 Speaker 1: get you, you know, so nothing that you're normally worried 134 00:06:58,121 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: about in your day to day life, even like, of 135 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,801 Speaker 1: course I missed my kids, like I love my kids 136 00:07:02,841 --> 00:07:05,601 Speaker 1: despite what we talk about on this podcast, and of 137 00:07:05,601 --> 00:07:08,041 Speaker 1: course I missed them and I was excited to see them, 138 00:07:08,561 --> 00:07:12,401 Speaker 1: but I almost didn't want to go back out into 139 00:07:12,441 --> 00:07:14,801 Speaker 1: the real world again. I was like, this is so nice. Yeah, 140 00:07:14,801 --> 00:07:17,481 Speaker 1: I'm thinking about is me? Yeah for three days? Yeah, 141 00:07:17,521 --> 00:07:18,241 Speaker 1: because it's. 142 00:07:18,081 --> 00:07:21,601 Speaker 2: The quietness of your mind. Obviously the stress that you 143 00:07:21,641 --> 00:07:24,521 Speaker 2: take on on a day to day basis in the 144 00:07:24,641 --> 00:07:27,081 Speaker 2: role of a mum that you do play, Yeah, but 145 00:07:27,161 --> 00:07:29,961 Speaker 2: it's also probably all the other practices that you did 146 00:07:30,041 --> 00:07:34,001 Speaker 2: during the day. So your meditation, your yoga, your larti 147 00:07:34,121 --> 00:07:38,001 Speaker 2: is your breath work. Then if you did any treatments 148 00:07:38,081 --> 00:07:40,081 Speaker 2: that would have helped you know, it's all a part 149 00:07:40,121 --> 00:07:41,081 Speaker 2: of the process. 150 00:07:41,721 --> 00:07:45,441 Speaker 1: And therapy, right, like I think it's good low health 151 00:07:45,521 --> 00:07:47,041 Speaker 1: therapy pulled my eyes out. 152 00:07:47,201 --> 00:07:47,681 Speaker 2: That's great. 153 00:07:47,721 --> 00:07:49,681 Speaker 1: I went in thinking that there was nothing really I 154 00:07:49,681 --> 00:07:53,161 Speaker 1: wanted to talk about. Clearly there was there was a lot, 155 00:07:53,561 --> 00:07:54,561 Speaker 1: Ye see what I mean? 156 00:07:54,641 --> 00:07:58,681 Speaker 2: Though, there's how much we park all of that just 157 00:07:58,721 --> 00:08:02,881 Speaker 2: to carry on with the day to day happenings of 158 00:08:02,921 --> 00:08:06,041 Speaker 2: being a mum, you know, being a one, being a parent, 159 00:08:06,161 --> 00:08:10,361 Speaker 2: being a driver everywhere you stress driving because you're going 160 00:08:10,401 --> 00:08:13,401 Speaker 2: to get them to and from safely your work. On 161 00:08:13,441 --> 00:08:17,161 Speaker 2: top of that, imagine a day where you don't have 162 00:08:17,241 --> 00:08:19,481 Speaker 2: to think about like right now, you know what time 163 00:08:19,521 --> 00:08:20,401 Speaker 2: you need to pick your girls? 164 00:08:20,481 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 1: Up right, You know where they need to be after school. 165 00:08:23,161 --> 00:08:25,241 Speaker 1: You probably have an idea of what you're going to 166 00:08:25,321 --> 00:08:27,921 Speaker 1: do for dinner tonight. You know that they're going to 167 00:08:27,961 --> 00:08:30,041 Speaker 1: have homework and you're probably going to have to help. 168 00:08:30,361 --> 00:08:33,321 Speaker 1: You know what time bedtime is, and what a wrangle 169 00:08:33,641 --> 00:08:36,641 Speaker 1: that is of trying to get you know, all of 170 00:08:36,681 --> 00:08:40,441 Speaker 1: those things. Imagine not having to do any of those 171 00:08:40,521 --> 00:08:43,361 Speaker 1: for a day, and all you've got to think about 172 00:08:43,761 --> 00:08:48,121 Speaker 1: is whether you as you where you want to go 173 00:08:48,321 --> 00:08:49,761 Speaker 1: or how do you want to go for a walk? 174 00:08:49,841 --> 00:08:52,481 Speaker 1: Do you want to go for a message like That's 175 00:08:52,481 --> 00:08:55,001 Speaker 1: all you got to think about.

We do have to 211 00:10:43,121 --> 00:10:45,561 Speaker 1: be going to make it. And even like meditation right, 212 00:10:45,601 --> 00:10:48,961 Speaker 1: which I thought, you know, meditation has to be in 213 00:10:49,001 --> 00:10:51,841 Speaker 1: a place where you can lay down and all the 214 00:10:51,921 --> 00:10:55,001 Speaker 1: rest of it where we know, bums, like, when are 215 00:10:55,001 --> 00:10:56,761 Speaker 1: we ever in a place where we can just sit 216 00:10:56,801 --> 00:10:59,441 Speaker 1: and lay down? Do it in your car? Yeah, do 217 00:10:59,481 --> 00:11:01,281 Speaker 1: it in your car. In the school pickup line, I 218 00:11:01,321 --> 00:11:02,361 Speaker 1: was like, not whilst driving. 219 00:11:02,401 --> 00:11:05,521 Speaker 2: No, we're not actually saying that, but yeah, exactly what 220 00:11:05,601 --> 00:11:07,041 Speaker 2: I was going to say. Sit in your car, when 221 00:11:07,081 --> 00:11:09,281 Speaker 2: you're sitting in your car waiting for the kids, put 222 00:11:09,321 --> 00:11:12,361 Speaker 2: it on. Yeah two minutes. Yeah, start with two minutes 223 00:11:12,441 --> 00:11:14,481 Speaker 2: and then get to ten. You'll feel a hell of 224 00:11:14,521 --> 00:11:15,161 Speaker 2: a lot different. 225 00:11:15,241 --> 00:11:18,281 Speaker 1: Talk about what you're grateful for, write it down, write 226 00:11:18,281 --> 00:11:20,401 Speaker 1: it down, journ all the shit out of it. You 227 00:11:20,441 --> 00:11:23,081 Speaker 1: can be grateful for your kids and also think that 228 00:11:23,121 --> 00:11:26,121 Speaker 1: they're being absolute assholes at the same time. Yeah, that's fine. 229 00:11:26,161 --> 00:11:28,041 Speaker 2: That's fine with us. That's what we do. 230 00:11:31,161 --> 00:11:35,521 Speaker 1: So my biggest takeaway is, mums, we need to do 231 00:11:35,561 --> 00:11:38,041 Speaker 1: stuff for ourselves, and we also need to feel not 232 00:11:38,081 --> 00:11:42,041 Speaker 1: guilty about it and go offline, go off grid. Yeah, 233 00:11:42,081 --> 00:11:44,041 Speaker 1: how many times have you had a day out maybe 234 00:11:44,081 --> 00:11:46,521 Speaker 1: you know races for example, right where you're not with 235 00:11:46,561 --> 00:11:49,241 Speaker 1: your kids, but they're fucking texting you all day and 236 00:11:49,321 --> 00:11:50,761 Speaker 1: you have to get back to them. And then you 237 00:11:50,801 --> 00:11:52,761 Speaker 1: get a phone call because they can't find their shoes 238 00:11:52,921 --> 00:11:55,361 Speaker 1: and you know, yeah, yeah, I do know, and then 239 00:11:55,401 --> 00:11:57,201 Speaker 1: they want uber eats for lunch because they don't like 240 00:11:57,201 --> 00:11:58,081 Speaker 1: what you've left them. 241 00:11:58,401 --> 00:12:03,641 Speaker 2: Too bad or staff one or the other. So anyway, 242 00:12:04,081 --> 00:12:07,721 Speaker 2: investment in self is what we're trying to say. Invest 243 00:12:07,761 --> 00:12:12,361 Speaker 2: in yourself so that others also get the best version 244 00:12:12,481 --> 00:12:15,641 Speaker 2: of you, because if you do not invest in yourself, yep, 245 00:12:15,881 --> 00:12:16,921 Speaker 2: no one does it for you. 246 00:12:16,961 --> 00:12:19,361 Speaker 1: And spend the money on yourself.
