Speaker 1: We acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land we're recording
Speaker 1: on today.
Speaker 2: I hope this is going to be bad.
Speaker 1: I can just tell by the way you're doing your
Speaker 1: evil smile.
Speaker 2: I'm not even putting it on my list. It is
Speaker 2: just no, I'm just gonna be setting myself up for foil.
Speaker 2: You're fuck cut that.
Speaker 3: On the list again.
Speaker 2: Hello, Hello, welcome back, shit It Oh Happy twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2: It is a brand spanking new year and a brand
Speaker 2: spanking new season of your all time favorite podcast, Eat, Sleep, Shit, Repeat,
Speaker 2: the unhinged podcast about the madness that is motherhood and
Speaker 2: everything in between. I'm Kelly McCarran.
Speaker 1: Way to break the vibes, I'm Ki Resells, and to
Speaker 1: kick things off for the year, We're talking goals.
Speaker 2: Baby, indeed we are, and we want to know what
Speaker 2: your goals are for the year, So let us know
Speaker 2: in the Facebook group because I'm very no and I
Speaker 2: want to know everyone's I want to know everything about
Speaker 2: everyone all the time. But like, I love goals, and
Speaker 2: I just love our enthusiasm every January. It's kind of
Speaker 2: nice that we start off every with such gung honess,
Speaker 2: like you never lost our spark or yeah, even before
Speaker 2: we were doing it, I was always doing my goals,
Speaker 2: and I just I have such gumption in January. Well,
Speaker 2: we want to believe that the year is going to
Speaker 2: be better than the last. But as it progresses, we
Speaker 2: get more and more unhinged. And before we.
Speaker 1: Start on our twenty twenty five goals, Curl wants us
Speaker 1: to check.
Speaker 2: In on our twenty twenty four goals to see how
Speaker 2: we went. I will say, technically you wanted to do
Speaker 2: a check in in November last year. I thought it
Speaker 2: might be fun, and I realized now that was a
Speaker 2: big mistake because I think you achieved more.
Speaker 3: I actually did one more than you out of your goals.
Speaker 2: One more counts. Yeah, but it's when you get to them. Wait,
Speaker 2: so you have looked at the script? No, I haven't.
Speaker 1: Uh, but you told me you're like, suck it.
Speaker 2: I actually achieved three and you're on in a chief
Speaker 2: two So the worst person.
Speaker 1: Oh dear me.
Speaker 2: All right, So to start off with key, so I
Speaker 2: haven't let her look at my little script where I
Speaker 2: put in what our.
Speaker 1: Goals were last year, A very secret.
Speaker 2: I was like, you just prepare what your goals are
Speaker 2: for the upcoming year because we need to have a
Speaker 2: bit of a giggle. I was just having such a laugh.
Speaker 2: But to summarize what you did achieve, oh larting under higher, like, well,
Speaker 2: you finished that, you're pregnant with your second baby, You're
Speaker 2: in a great place in your relationship, you launched a
Speaker 2: second podcast, and you traveled Europe with a toddler for
Speaker 2: over a month. Go me. I think that that is
Speaker 2: so impressive. Yeah, that is, thank you.
Speaker 3: And two of those things were on your list.
Speaker 2: Oh great. So you wanted to be in a really
Speaker 2: great place in your relationship supporting Charlie because you felt
Speaker 2: like maybe last year he supported you, like it wasn't
Speaker 2: as as equal. And I think that you've done a
Speaker 2: really great job with that. And you also wanted to
Speaker 2: nail told the parenting. And I know that you don't
Speaker 2: feel like you are, but I think you're doing a
Speaker 2: pretty damn good job. Thank you, doing the best that
Speaker 2: you can.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a little bit niche to nail toddler parenting
Speaker 1: while also pregnant.
Speaker 3: I think it's like, so just nailing told the parenting.
Speaker 1: Is hard to throw in.
Speaker 2: Very very lack of resilience and tolerance.
Speaker 3: You've just had a bit of a fuse.
Speaker 2: You had a bit of a year last year as well,
Speaker 2: wasn't It wasn't an easy ride.
Speaker 3: Okay, So I know this.
Speaker 2: Is going to be bad.
Speaker 1: I can just tell by the way you're doing your
Speaker 1: evil smile. But it's not an evil I can't wait
Speaker 1: to tell her how shit she's also been.
Speaker 2: Well, that's a funny choice of words, because one of
Speaker 2: your big goals for the you don't was to get
Speaker 2: your digestive track sorted shut up.
Speaker 1: That was not one of my goals.
Speaker 2: And to poop every day that was not a goal,
Speaker 2: surely not. So I would just like to know how
Speaker 2: that went.
Speaker 1: Well, a big fat fail.
Speaker 2: It did not go to the rescue because I'm full of.
Speaker 1: Ship, I really am, and was full of.
Speaker 2: Shit, id isn't it. When I was listening to this audio,
Speaker 2: I had tears. Oh Hans, I'd like to poop every day?
Speaker 3: Well how did that?
Speaker 2: Oh gosh? I just couldn't have gone any worse.
Speaker 3: It actually could not have gone worse.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, being admitted to hospital and people trying to actively
Speaker 1: get you to ship.
Speaker 2: It's not a good no time. No.
Speaker 1: Yeah, failed.
Speaker 2: Now this one I'm unsure of because I think you
Speaker 2: like half did it. I'm not sure how you feel
Speaker 2: about it, though, So you wanted to get a handle
Speaker 2: on the whole freelance thing. You did start a second podcast.
Speaker 2: I did.
Speaker 1: Look, I actually made the equivalent of what I would
Speaker 1: have made had I stayed on four days of work
Speaker 1: in like a nine to five job.
Speaker 2: So that was a that is a goal huge.
Speaker 1: It's funny because my account was like, you had a
Speaker 1: very good year, and I was.
Speaker 2: Like, I did.
Speaker 3: I did not know.
Speaker 2: I did not think that.
Speaker 1: Because I feel like we're a little bit harsh on ourselves.
Speaker 3: So congratulations, that's great.
Speaker 1: I think I broke even of what I would have made,
Speaker 1: which is great. I do wish I had have gone
Speaker 1: above and beyond, but I think I did what I
Speaker 1: was capable of.
Speaker 2: Given the year that you can have had. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: for sure that next year, even with a newborn.
Speaker 1: Even with a newborn, maybe you can soar even a higher.
Speaker 3: I think that you will.
Speaker 2: Did you find a hobby? Hell? Is your pottery going lottery? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Did you have any tales to tell or some work
Speaker 2: to maybe show us?
Speaker 1: There was no throwing of the of the pots, the
Speaker 1: claim the clay. There was no throwing of the cla.
Speaker 1: There was no carving, there was no killing as well.
Speaker 2: It was like, well it's called I don't know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there wasn't much time for a hobby. I tell
Speaker 1: you what what I did pick.
Speaker 2: Up though, Do you think that's a bit of an excuse.
Speaker 2: I think my.
Speaker 1: Hobby was complaining about being pregnant. I think you laid
Speaker 1: by the way.
Speaker 2: You absolutely nailed that one, and also maybe in a
Speaker 2: series of many, many unfortunate events like being full of shit. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: there wasn't enough room for a hobby because the ship
Speaker 2: was taken up all my energy. And how are the
Speaker 2: stand up classes going? Because mine aren't going well.
Speaker 1: I don't even think I googled them. I did continue
Speaker 1: to think about it throughout the year, like I've got
Speaker 1: to do that stand up with girl but.
Speaker 2: No, Yeah, epic fail on that one too. Yeah, it
Speaker 2: seems like the hobby hobby.
Speaker 1: Kind of ones aren't great for us.
Speaker 2: Speak for yourself. Oh, apologies, I'm waiting to hear your
Speaker 2: list of war of nailed Why I didn't say any hobbies.
Speaker 2: To be fair, I've got enough if I don't need it anymore. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you're like the Queen of hobbies. It's quite annoying.
Speaker 3: It's just also so dorky.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it fits the bill, you know. All right,
Speaker 2: this is another one. I was unsure of how you
Speaker 2: felt about it. Have you been a good friend?
Speaker 3: You did have a bit on.
Speaker 1: I haven't been the greatest friend, No, but I have
Speaker 1: been honest.
Speaker 3: Could even just checking your messages to be fair?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well it's cool being depressed.
Speaker 2: Cow.
Speaker 1: No, I don't think I had the capacity to be
Speaker 1: like a stellar, above and beyond friend. But I did
Speaker 1: what I could, and I showed up when I could.
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't think you're a bad friend at all.
Speaker 1: I don't think I was a bad friend, but I
Speaker 1: felt like I wanted to probably be there more. But
Speaker 1: I was very conscious of the fact that I just
Speaker 1: wasn't actually coping.
Speaker 2: And I'm sure if someone needed you, you would have been,
Speaker 2: but maybe you couldn't reach out to figure out if
Speaker 2: someone was okay in the same capacity that maybe you
Speaker 2: usually would. But if someone came to and said, hey,
Speaker 2: it's not like you just don't respond or for sure,
Speaker 2: I think that it was just more like I couldn't
Speaker 2: go above and beyond in a friendship. I think I
Speaker 2: was just very insular. Yeah, I'm going to be completely honest,
Speaker 2: and I need this advice to myself. I actually don't
Speaker 2: think it's possible to be an above and beyond friend
Speaker 2: when you've got really little kids. And I'm not just
Speaker 2: saying that that sounds like a bit of a pop out,
Speaker 2: but it's just they take up so much of your energy. No.
Speaker 1: Well, that's a really good point because I remember when
Speaker 1: I saw Dolly Alderton live last year. She obviously doesn't
Speaker 1: have any kids, but she said a lot a lot
Speaker 1: of her friends have gone on to have kids, and
Speaker 1: she said it was like such a weird transition in
Speaker 1: your thirties that no one really talks about. It's like
Speaker 1: either you have kids or you don't have kids, and
Speaker 1: she said it was a really tough time to navigate.
Speaker 2: But what the beautiful thing was about it is that
Speaker 2: as the kids.
Speaker 1: Get older and you don't have to worry about them
Speaker 1: as much or be there as they get older, essentially
Speaker 1: those friendships become even deeper because there is time there
Speaker 1: for them to be invested in.
Speaker 2: Again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and she's like, it's just holding space for those
Speaker 1: friendships during that time, and I was like, that's actually
Speaker 1: really true.
Speaker 2: It's good advice. And I think anyone that does get frustrated,
Speaker 2: and I know how frustrating it would be when your
Speaker 2: friends aren't there in the capacity that you need them
Speaker 2: to be. Yeah, But as long as you just hold
Speaker 2: space through different periods, I think so.
Speaker 3: And you know, we have to.
Speaker 2: Sometimes people cannot show up the way that we want
Speaker 2: them to all the time, and I think it's that
Speaker 2: we put our expectations onto other people. Yeah. I have
Speaker 2: a girlfriend who was recently talking to me about this,
Speaker 2: and she's like, I just feel like people don't put
Speaker 2: the same effort with me as I do with them.
Speaker 2: And then she goes, I feel like such a silk
Speaker 2: saying that, and I said, oh my gosh, you are
Speaker 2: so like entitled and valid with your feelings, and it's
Speaker 2: so good that you can express them. But the problem is,
Speaker 2: and I've even said this to my sister before when
Speaker 2: she's been winging about like something her husband ditch. He
Speaker 2: doesn't put thought into his presence. Just because you do
Speaker 2: something a certain way, you can't have an expectation that
Speaker 2: other people do it like that. Everyone has like a
Speaker 2: different love language and the exactly way of showing up
Speaker 2: for sure, And I.
Speaker 1: Think that's a really good reminder. In fact, like it
Speaker 1: doesn't always come as naturally to different people, different ways
Speaker 1: of you know, connecting or making an effort. Like everyone's
Speaker 1: got their own way of doing things. Doesn't mean that
Speaker 1: they don't love your care any less. But the same
Speaker 1: way in which you give love is not necessarily how
Speaker 1: you are going to be able to receive that love
Speaker 1: from someone else exactly.
Speaker 2: And depending on what point we are in our lives,
Speaker 2: we have different ways of being a good friend. Like
Speaker 2: I don't have that much time, yeah for weekends away
Speaker 2: and you know, weekly dinners out and that sort of thing,
Speaker 2: but I know that when I am with someone they
Speaker 2: will get my undivided attention totally. Yeah, And I'm a
Speaker 2: very good listener, which is probably a little bit surprising
Speaker 2: because I talk over people. But you also do get
Speaker 2: this thing when your eyes got glazed, tell me if
Speaker 2: I'm a bit bored, but like I usually wouldn't be
Speaker 2: bored hopefully when talking to someone that happens alone on
Speaker 2: this okaytics, Okay, so those were yours.
Speaker 1: Okay, that wasn't too bad.
Speaker 2: It's just funny the ones that you deal. It's not
Speaker 2: like you failed your relationship or yourddler. Yeah, in that
Speaker 2: case you would have been welles Now going back, I
Speaker 2: guess no, that was quite nice.
Speaker 1: Thanks for kind of presenting it in that way too,
Speaker 1: of relativity, bit of encouragement, enthusiasm and the lulls of course.
Speaker 2: All right, what can we do you now? Yeah, so
Speaker 2: let's start off with the fails. Oh we're going backwards.
Speaker 1: Okay, love it.
Speaker 3: How do you think my year of health? Take two went?
Speaker 1: Third times a charm?
Speaker 2: It went terribly.
Speaker 1: Take two was not look at me, to be fair,
Speaker 1: you did have like kind of a misdiagnosis that kind of.
Speaker 2: Listed brain aneurysm that wasn't a brain aneurysm.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think that fucked you up, like mentally.
Speaker 1: I think that was a lot of stress to be
Speaker 1: carrying around for what was it, six months? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I really feel for you on that.
Speaker 2: And then like a proper diagnosis of pots. But that
Speaker 2: isn't really a real thing at the salt thing, Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's like, but that actually is because like I still
Speaker 2: do get really giddy and sometimes we almost a giddy
Speaker 2: Oh shit, gotta have some salt, Gotta have some salt.
Speaker 2: It also explains why I've always. I always just thought
Speaker 2: I was lazy. But why I hated being upside down? Yeah,
Speaker 2: like I hate being doing bear crawls and that.
Speaker 3: Sort of thing at the gym.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I like just avoid it. But it's actually
Speaker 2: because of the pots.
Speaker 3: It makes me so dizzy.
Speaker 1: The pots are so funny. It's funny that it's even
Speaker 1: cooled that.
Speaker 3: I know my sister will be like pots. But anyway, Yeah,
Speaker 3: so the year of hell far did not go well.
Speaker 2: Well, can I actually flip that?
Speaker 1: And the fact that you don't have a brain aneurysm,
Speaker 1: that's oh.
Speaker 2: My god, Yes, okay, it's great.
Speaker 1: Well, it was.
Speaker 2: Pretty scary for a moment. Then remember when you announced
Speaker 2: that you have a brain aneurysm and how upset you were.
Speaker 3: I was like, will I die?
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, and then you got the no, you're not
Speaker 1: going to die.
Speaker 3: And then I had a panic attack. I was going
Speaker 3: to get very fit.
Speaker 1: Well, but you haven't going to the gym a little bit?
Speaker 3: No, I have not.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, I'm.
Speaker 1: Trying to make you feel better.
Speaker 2: It's not helping. My goal was to start swimming once
Speaker 2: a week. No, I have not swum once. Barley cout
Speaker 2: no like laps It's funny because, like the other day,
Speaker 2: I actually found my spade o's and my goggles and
Speaker 2: my yeah that I purchased yeah last year, well sorry
Speaker 2: two years ago now in an attempt to get my
Speaker 2: swimming back on track. That might have been an easy
Speaker 2: one too. I know.
Speaker 1: I think we needed to like a quarterly check out
Speaker 1: goals and remind us.
Speaker 2: I was just asked, Okay, how did our eat, sleepshit, repeat,
Speaker 2: launch with like meat and greet go the event that
Speaker 2: we've talked about for years.
Speaker 1: Well, it's happening this year, so I guess that's pretty good.
Speaker 3: That's our goal for the year.
Speaker 2: Well we just moved it shuffle five. Yeah, well that
Speaker 2: wasn't our fault was a little bit. Did my news
Speaker 2: let her make her comeback? Absolutely not.
Speaker 1: You've got to do that, although I know that it
Speaker 1: is a lot of work. I think you should do
Speaker 1: like a monthly one.
Speaker 3: Did I get my leg veins removed?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: But can we do that together once this baby's out. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I didn't like to do that.
Speaker 2: You won't be able to wear your breastfeeding, although I
Speaker 2: think winter is probably a great time to do it. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 2: my sister in law got it done though, and she
Speaker 2: did have the most amazing things to say.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel like the technology is way different to
Speaker 1: what it used to be, Like when my nana got.
Speaker 2: It done, I didn't even want to think about that. Nailed,
Speaker 2: so nailed, moving onto nailed so as I smugly said,
Speaker 2: I did reach three okay, but like one of them
Speaker 2: is a bit like, oh, okay, cal we went on
Speaker 2: a holiday. That was one of my big goals. I
Speaker 2: love that. Financially, I was like, I think I had
Speaker 2: a goal financially, there you did, and then you made
Speaker 2: me not say what the figure was, So then I
Speaker 2: was like, fox sake, key, what was the bloody figure?
Speaker 3: But I know that, like.
Speaker 2: Our mortgage has been reduced so significantly that we are
Speaker 2: looking at houses.
Speaker 1: So that's exciting.
Speaker 3: So that's very exciting.
Speaker 2: And guess how much this place has increasing value in
Speaker 2: three esma three.
Speaker 1: Hundred thousand dollars one hundred thousand a year filipp An Egg.
Speaker 2: Right, that's really good, I know.
Speaker 1: So you're going to sell this and buy something else potentially.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I did do my four seasons of nipple.
Speaker 2: I missed like two games all year.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you were really consistent with that, and that's fuckingpic.
Speaker 2: I miss so many other things because I'm like, no,
Speaker 2: I am committed to.
Speaker 1: My Yeah, you really were committed.
Speaker 2: Okay, I love it. So I can't wait for it
Speaker 2: to start again this year. That's so exciting. Okay, moving
Speaker 2: on to our twenty twenty five goals. All right, ky Reese,
Speaker 2: kick things off. Did you categorize yours again? I did? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I did. My categories for twenty twenty five goals are
Speaker 1: career as follows, are as, follows, Korea, businesses, relationship, parent, friend,
Speaker 1: and personal. Oh so there's a few there, but I
Speaker 1: feel like it's they're not unreachable goals, which is what
Speaker 1: I feel like. I've become a bit.
Speaker 2: More realistic and my approach to these goals. The feedback
Speaker 2: that I gave you last year that you didn't ask for,
Speaker 2: was it. They need to be somewhat realistic. Yeah, and tangible,
Speaker 2: not just totally. You know, they need to be I'm
Speaker 2: going to get fit. It needs to be like I'm
Speaker 2: going to do pilateis three times a week type thing?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly. Okay, So let's start with Korea, my
Speaker 1: personal career, nothing to do with the podcast. I've kept
Speaker 1: them separate by the end of twenty twenty five, I
Speaker 1: want to have had a gig by myself, not as
Speaker 1: like a duo, even though we're posting.
Speaker 2: No, it's a different it's a different thing. I want
Speaker 2: to do a brand shoot, like a proper brand shoot.
Speaker 2: I want to do one panel, and I want to
Speaker 2: try to increase my income by twenty percent.
Speaker 1: That is a big, sloppy goal.
Speaker 2: They are amazing, really excited for them because I think
Speaker 2: that like the year, I think they're very doable. Oh
Speaker 2: my god, I love those I want to steal those ones.
Speaker 2: They're really good. I don't want to be on a panel.
Speaker 2: Yeh do it. Fantastic goals. It look quite good.
Speaker 1: Like three things that I haven't done before.
Speaker 3: We've done a brand show.
Speaker 1: Well when you and oh that's true. Yeah, but more
Speaker 1: so like a brand that I work with, Well, I
Speaker 1: do work.
Speaker 2: You're a sad company every week I do.
Speaker 1: That's really true, but something like me because.
Speaker 2: Oh not with Yeah. We decided that that wasn't.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I didn't like a general yeah us.
Speaker 2: Because the money you could probably increase your income by
Speaker 2: two hundred percent.
Speaker 3: If you want to do that.
Speaker 1: We'll link that episode in the show notes. If you
Speaker 1: want to revisit the money, then you can make businesses.
Speaker 2: So my businesses are the two podcasts that I have,
Speaker 2: my One with You my Mom with Lucy, so sponsored
Speaker 2: fifty percent of the time, so two out of four
Speaker 2: weeks a month.
Speaker 1: I think that's a healthy goal. I think that's great relationship.
Speaker 2: So are you on the one business goal? Well, yeah,
Speaker 2: I just thought i'd start with sponsorship. No meat or great.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, the meet and greets on there, but that's
Speaker 2: a definitely happening thing. Okay, it's not even a goal. Okay,
Speaker 2: I'll put.
Speaker 1: It on there. Relationship so scheduled time with Charlie and
Speaker 1: I to connect and hang so, okay, I want to
Speaker 1: hang out with him.
Speaker 2: Scheduled sex huh No, not scheduled sex. But I actually
Speaker 2: got this.
Speaker 1: I cannot claim it. I got this idea off one
Speaker 1: of my girlfriends. Her and her husband told us that
Speaker 1: they were doing it, and I was like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: this is genius. So three Friday mornings a month, We're
Speaker 1: actually gonna hire a nanny for the morning. So next
Speaker 1: year my work week will be Monday to Thursday working.
Speaker 1: I'll still have the baby for some of it, and
Speaker 1: then on the Friday, I'll have both kids, so we're
Speaker 1: gonna get a nanny from the morning from like nine
Speaker 1: till twelve that morning. Charlie and I are gonna do
Speaker 1: things that we did before we had kids, that we
Speaker 1: loved and we just can't do now. So go for
Speaker 1: a run together, get brecky. I love that, like really
Speaker 1: simple things that you just don't get to do.
Speaker 2: And it will just become your routine. And it's not
Speaker 2: like it can get interrupted because well, I mean unless
Speaker 2: the nanny sick.
Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, which was just fine. She can come the
Speaker 1: week after. Yeah, it'll be quite flexible, but it'll mean
Speaker 1: that like he'll get into work a little bit later
Speaker 1: that day, but I might still have like.
Speaker 2: An hour and a half get a message that plate
Speaker 2: class or something just.
Speaker 1: For exactly, and we don't have to go for a
Speaker 1: run together, like one of us could do a class
Speaker 1: and then we'd come meet up for breakfast. But just
Speaker 1: like having some one on one time that isn't on
Speaker 1: a weekend or in the evening, like in the day time.
Speaker 2: I think we've really been missing.
Speaker 1: Making sure that we do one like Friday Saturday night
Speaker 1: a month, like going out to dinner together.
Speaker 3: A lot of time together.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but we spend so much time together, but Rhu's
Speaker 1: always there.
Speaker 2: Ah, yes, so we're trying to remove her from these
Speaker 2: the equation and then he actually suggested this one. So
Speaker 2: that was like a date. Yeah, but just a day
Speaker 2: something that we're really scheduling. Yeah, that's actually a non
Speaker 2: negotiable once. Okay.
Speaker 1: I love that instead of just kind of add hoc
Speaker 1: here and there, like actually having something and alternating who organizes?
Speaker 2: Oh, I used to do that, So you plan something.
Speaker 1: It doesn't have to be like, it could just be
Speaker 1: whatever those summer movies are. You know, I've got outdoor
Speaker 1: cinema like something like that, or go bowling, like you know,
Speaker 1: it can be a bit knaf, but just something fun
Speaker 1: that we don't.
Speaker 2: Get to do. The outdoor cinema.
Speaker 1: No, the outdoor cinema isn't naf bowling it hate. I
Speaker 1: like bowling, I'm good at it.
Speaker 2: Do you like karaoke? Oh? How many lines are I hat?
Speaker 1: If I've had a whole bottle of shamp Yeah.
Speaker 2: Oh god, you could give me ten bottles of champagne
Speaker 2: and still find it painful as anything.
Speaker 1: I do think that I should have been discovered as
Speaker 1: a singer and performer. So that's what happens.
Speaker 2: Is that they own alcohol, goes in and comes up. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 2: there you go.
Speaker 1: He actually suggested this one. He was like, should we
Speaker 1: train for like the NUSA try or like a half
Speaker 1: marathon because we've always wanted to. I've actually done a
Speaker 1: half marathon, but he hasn't.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 1: Actually, in DC it was a Nike Woman's half marathon.
Speaker 2: It was really cute.
Speaker 1: So I was like, yeah, babe, that would be so
Speaker 1: much fun.
Speaker 3: How many kilometers is a half twenty.
Speaker 1: One point one kilometers? Yeah, half, that's half. Yeah, A
Speaker 1: four marathon's forty two point two. It would be obviously.
Speaker 2: I just don't I love that, Like, it is just
Speaker 2: such a mid to late thirties thing to do. I know.
Speaker 2: I feel like so many of my friends that are
Speaker 2: like former party people. I still like to party, but
Speaker 2: now they're trained for their marathons. Yeah, you know good.
Speaker 2: I love it. I love it too, And look he
Speaker 2: suggested it, so I was like, babe, yeah, I love
Speaker 2: doing something.
Speaker 1: I can do that together, and I think it will
Speaker 1: help us get back into a good rhythm with running.
Speaker 1: So then it becomes like an everyday thing in our
Speaker 1: lives again that we make time for or you know,
Speaker 1: every second day whatever, and then buy a house, which
Speaker 1: we are quite close to doing so I know I
Speaker 1: haven't told you yet because well we're not quite close,
Speaker 1: but like it's going to happen, and I honestly thought
Speaker 1: it would never happen. I just never thought I would
Speaker 1: own a house. And when I say house, I mean
Speaker 1: extremely expensive unit in Sydney. Anyone who doesn't live in Sydney, yeah,
Speaker 1: please pity me because it's pretty bleak out there. But
Speaker 1: it'll be ours and I can put a whole week.
Speaker 2: Board house if you wanted to move a little bit further.
Speaker 1: That is true. Yeah, that's what my sister in law says.
Speaker 1: She always sends me links to houses near her.
Speaker 2: Yay, this looks through. It's just like as someone who
Speaker 2: used to be I don't want to live through we
Speaker 2: now I have to join the committee of people that go, well,
Speaker 2: you could, you could, You could if you will willing
Speaker 2: to live a little bit further away from the beach,
Speaker 2: which I also understand though is a non negotiable for
Speaker 2: you guys, I know.
Speaker 3: Non negotiable, but something you really want, so well, I.
Speaker 1: Think living in Sydney. It's just like, if we're not
Speaker 1: going to live at the beach, we would live in Brisbane.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I get it because that's the whole thing,
Speaker 1: and it's like having that beach but also major city
Speaker 1: lifestyle that you can have like a good job with
Speaker 1: a good salary, but also Sydney's expensive. Af parent Now,
Speaker 1: I kept this one really short and sweet. I would
Speaker 1: like to just enjoy them. I feel like in twenty
Speaker 1: twenty four, and I don't think it was rude, but
Speaker 1: I think I've really struggled with grief and pregnancy and
Speaker 1: I found it hard to find joy in toddler life.
Speaker 1: I feel like that's pretty normal. So yeah, I just
Speaker 1: want to enjoy them. I want to be present and
Speaker 1: I want to play more. I feel like life is
Speaker 1: so busy that sometimes I forget to play and more
Speaker 1: tea parties, more, I don't know, mum and baby, more hospital.
Speaker 1: You know, when they're like you're sick, lay here, I'll
Speaker 1: be like, alright, can you bring mummy or drink?
Speaker 2: So yeah, I just wanted to keep that really easy
Speaker 2: because parenting enough is by itself is already quite stressful
Speaker 2: and a lot of pressure. So just to enjoy it
Speaker 2: more friends see my friends more.
Speaker 1: So, like in the same way as I'm booking something
Speaker 1: with Charlie once a month, having something once a month
Speaker 1: where I'm seeing a certain group of friends just so
Speaker 1: I feel like I am a person away from everything else.
Speaker 1: Have one to two catch ups in the calendar each month,
Speaker 1: and do weekday dinners because.
Speaker 2: They are the day dinners at the best. They're great
Speaker 2: and like I feel like get out of bath in
Speaker 2: bed totally. Charlie's so into that.
Speaker 1: He's like, yeah, I can come home do that and
Speaker 1: then get back online because it means I can work
Speaker 1: until you get home. Like yeah, he loves that. So yeah,
Speaker 1: once you catch ups in the calendar a month with
Speaker 1: my gfs personal.
Speaker 2: You're gonna kill me.
Speaker 1: Get into exercise now. I don't know what it's going
Speaker 1: to look like after I have this baby, so I
Speaker 1: don't know what type of exercise I'm going to be
Speaker 1: motivated to do, but I just want to try and
Speaker 1: do something each day. So I'm going to start like
Speaker 1: with the walk each day, half an hour walk, which
Speaker 1: is how I kind of got back into exercise on
Speaker 1: the tail end of this pregnant see you for this one.
Speaker 1: Because you were like, you've got to be specific about
Speaker 1: your exercise, but.
Speaker 2: I think that you don't know what you're like, Yeah,
Speaker 2: it might be like a walk, though, I think as
Speaker 2: a starting goal every day, yeah is firstly achievable. I
Speaker 2: would recommend a daily walk to absolutely every new mum
Speaker 2: or person with a newborn.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: It's a good way to get out of the house,
Speaker 2: get some fresh air the body. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So I'm going to do that and then read more.
Speaker 1: And I have just said to myself, I'm going to
Speaker 1: make this really easy for you. Key four books this year.
Speaker 1: That's one a quarter, one every three months. Okay, you
Speaker 1: can do that. You can find the time.
Speaker 2: To do that. I can give you your book and a
Speaker 2: recorder and be like, this is your book to read.
Speaker 1: Well, you know what happens with me, right is that
Speaker 1: I hate not finishing a book so often if it's shit,
Speaker 1: I'll just struggle, struggle, struggle, and then it'll just sit
Speaker 1: collecting dust until I go, I'm not going to read
Speaker 1: that book because it's shit.
Speaker 2: Okay, So what I want you to do. I think
Speaker 2: that a really easy way to combat that. If you
Speaker 2: are one of those painful people that have to finish
Speaker 2: something that you start or I do. Don't see your point.
Speaker 2: Look it up on Spotify and listen to the rest
Speaker 2: of it on one point two speed. Just breathe through it.
Speaker 2: I feel like you have the same problem that a
Speaker 2: lot of people that want to be readers have.
Speaker 1: What is it the terrible taste in books?
Speaker 2: You know, you try too hide Like that was just.
Speaker 1: At my local books or they have all of the
Speaker 1: reviews from the people that work there.
Speaker 2: They're like, this is hilarious, and I'm like, I don't
Speaker 2: ever trust them. They'll say that they love it even
Speaker 2: if they hated it. You need to read for best sellers, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I just need the basic bluff. You know what you need?
Speaker 2: You need Colleen Hoover. Colleen Hoover, I know I do.
Speaker 3: That's what you need.
Speaker 2: You need Harry Potter, Colleen Hoover like really easy books.
Speaker 1: Actually, Lucy just read one that she's gonna give me
Speaker 1: funny Story.
Speaker 2: Have you read that? She said it was just like
Speaker 2: light and fluffy, because I think it was after that
Speaker 2: Bunny book. Her book club was like, we need something
Speaker 2: to up, like lift our spirits up.
Speaker 3: Bunny Story.
Speaker 1: It's about a husband that cheats on a wife, and
Speaker 1: then a wife moves into a house with the husband
Speaker 1: of the chick that had the affair with her husband.
Speaker 2: That is the perfect like easy, holiday, fun, cute read.
Speaker 2: That's what I want. There's nothing okay, to be fair,
Speaker 2: I am not a big Colleen Hoofer fan, but I
Speaker 2: do think there's a place for her. And I also
Speaker 2: think people are just so wanky these days with book time.
Speaker 1: I know, I want, no I know, And that's the thing.
Speaker 2: I do.
Speaker 1: Really try to choose books that I think I'm gonna like.
Speaker 1: I don't have any like qualms around like what I read.
Speaker 2: I honestly listen to your friends though that read a lot,
Speaker 2: not your friends that read a couple of times a year,
Speaker 2: because they probably don't have good, good recommendations because they're
Speaker 2: not reading enough to give you the good stuff. Like
Speaker 2: if you think every book that I would post on
Speaker 2: Instagram and say this was great, loved it, easy read, whatnot,
Speaker 2: there's a couple of books that are absolute duds that
Speaker 2: haven't been like I finished them because they were fine. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but do you know what I mean? Like, you've got
Speaker 2: to trust people that read a lot, except people that
Speaker 2: work at bookstores. Because it's like people that work at
Speaker 2: like an indie cinema or something.
Speaker 1: Buster back in the day.
Speaker 2: Like they'll be like, oh, human Centipede is a great
Speaker 2: horror movie because of the you know, it's about gluttony
Speaker 2: and society, and they'll start talking about and it's like, know.
Speaker 1: Just like seigny.
Speaker 2: Teachers assholes are quite funny, but gross. Gross. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So I've tried to keep it, you know, manageable, achievable.
Speaker 2: I love those. Yeah, I'm pretty proud of them, to
Speaker 2: be honest. So under the category of health, you might think,
Speaker 2: are you going for three's the charm of health? No? Oh,
Speaker 2: I'm not even putting it on my list. Okay, but
Speaker 2: it is just No, I'm clearly not a healthy person
Speaker 2: and I'm just going to be setting myself up for
Speaker 2: foil put that on the list again. What I do
Speaker 2: have on my list is to reduce my sugar addiction
Speaker 2: and sugar intake.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you do eat a lot of lollies,
Speaker 1: you say, so.
Speaker 2: We witnessed it when we used to have that lowly
Speaker 2: jar And you'd be like, is that from the last
Speaker 2: week or did Luke and Lenny also, I'm like, no,
Speaker 2: they're not allowed. It's just like which and then we
Speaker 2: realized that equated to one packet per day.
Speaker 1: That's a good healthy health goal.
Speaker 2: But it's like, let's reduce it a little bit. Yeah,
Speaker 2: And I think in that regard. Also, I was listening
Speaker 2: to this really interesting podcast at the end of last
Speaker 2: year when I was sort of thinking about all of this,
Speaker 2: and it's just about the obesity epidemic. Yeah, he was
Speaker 2: talking about the long term health implications, and they were
Speaker 2: talking about statistics that come out of Japan in terms
Speaker 2: of their lifespan and the.
Speaker 3: Lack of disease.
Speaker 2: And it's because they just eat so well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, eat fresh like non processed, non pesticide foods.
Speaker 3: And I'm so unhealthy in every way.
Speaker 1: It's also quite a luxury to be healthy bioorganic, and
Speaker 1: it's too far.
Speaker 2: Too far. I'm talking about like just like less packaged
Speaker 2: processed foods. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get that, less salt,
Speaker 2: less sugar. Not for me, sorry, sorry, sorry, not for me,
Speaker 2: for Len he has so much salt because I need it, Yeah,
Speaker 2: and then he just ends up having a lot too. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So I think like whenever I don't put salt on
Speaker 1: something and give it to Roote, she doesn't want to
Speaker 1: eat it like she likes things that tastes good too.
Speaker 2: I don't put a lot on hers, but like, yeah,
Speaker 2: I think it's more the hidden salts. I don't have
Speaker 2: a problem with actually putting a little bit of salt.
Speaker 1: On it controlling it as well.
Speaker 2: When you look at the label and it's like sodium
Speaker 2: sodium crazy and you just think, oh, my very.
Speaker 3: Word, like that is just not good.
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course, like not all the time, but yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: not a health goal, but just like a better eating
Speaker 2: sort of goal.
Speaker 3: I used to be so good.
Speaker 2: Do you remember when we worked at shopo together and
Speaker 2: I had a green smoothie every single day.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was very off brand for you, but it
Speaker 1: was a great time.
Speaker 2: It was a great time to be my insides. It's
Speaker 2: not like I was overly healthy though, Like I used
Speaker 2: to still get sick all the time. I think it
Speaker 2: was just probably because I was drunk half the time
Speaker 2: the other half of the time.
Speaker 1: Well, also going out more. And yeah, like now if
Speaker 1: you're sick, you kind of stay away from people, but
Speaker 1: back then you'd be like taking like pseudo and stuff to.
Speaker 2: At your desktop. Coming through it exactly under like Finance
Speaker 2: Buy House.
Speaker 1: We're both are the same, Well, you already own a house,
Speaker 1: but to buy a new house.
Speaker 2: To buy a big, big, big house, so we've I
Speaker 2: don't know. It's very bittersweet though, because I don't want
Speaker 2: to sell this.
Speaker 1: I was going to ask you before when you said, yeah,
Speaker 1: you were going to sell because obviously it was your nanny.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well it's still in my mind like the Rose Garden, Yeah,
Speaker 2: all of those parts.
Speaker 3: But it's just too small.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if I want to work at home and also
Speaker 2: have a crazy toddler running around like he's just got
Speaker 2: no space to run, and I'm constantly overwhelmed because there's
Speaker 2: nowhere for me to escape in my own home.
Speaker 3: I just have a breathing in an apartment. Totally get it, Like.
Speaker 1: You have to really have not a lot of stuff
Speaker 1: to feel sane in a small space, and it simply
Speaker 1: isn't actually possible when you have a kid and work
Speaker 1: from home, and.
Speaker 2: With my job, wellah, like an influx of stuff coming
Speaker 2: into the South even just see everything.
Speaker 1: It's too much.
Speaker 3: It's impossible.
Speaker 2: But yeah, so I don't even want to really think
Speaker 2: about the actual act of selling it, but we have
Speaker 2: to because we need to sell this for a deposit
Speaker 2: for the next house so that it wouldn't be too stressful.
Speaker 1: I think it's a smart thing to do. You don't
Speaker 1: want to like go into so much debt.
Speaker 2: Anyway, exactly, And like, honestly, these houses that we're looking.
Speaker 1: At, I did see.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: What's so funny is like when I did a arrive,
Speaker 1: I saw like a real estate pamphlet on the thing,
Speaker 1: and I was like, huh, because there was a time
Speaker 1: when we were talking about.
Speaker 2: You potentially yeah, yeah, and you were like, no, we're
Speaker 2: not doing that anymore, like because you wanted to, but
Speaker 2: Luke didn't, but it sounds like you want to, yeah,
Speaker 2: And then I saw it on the thing and I
Speaker 2: was like, oh, yes. And we've had two different estate
Speaker 2: agents come over to like value the house. Yeah, talk
Speaker 2: to us about everything, and that is really exciting, Cairl.
Speaker 1: And also just the new things that you've done to
Speaker 1: the house and how much that would add the value too,
Speaker 1: Like great, So I mean it's adding value to my
Speaker 1: life every Wednesday. That's duck to there.
Speaker 2: I'm giving so much shit to Luke for everything that
Speaker 2: he's done. They're actually like, oh, wow, this is so
Speaker 2: good blah blah blah. The laundry Wow, and I'm like, oh, look,
Speaker 2: it's just sitting there like sound a little louder to her.
Speaker 2: He was never around when he was a new book
Speaker 2: because he was doing renews. It's like, yeah, now we're
Speaker 2: in a pretty good financial spot thanks to relationships. This
Speaker 2: is just all my relationships. I want to be more
Speaker 2: organized and better with birthdays. I suck.
Speaker 1: I've got a tip for you. Yeah, my godmother, Sue.
Speaker 1: That's actually a very Dutch thing to do. Is that
Speaker 1: you have a birthday calendar on the back door of
Speaker 1: your toilet, and it only has birthdays in it, so
Speaker 1: that you know you're frequently using the toilet, so you're
Speaker 1: constantly reminded this person's birthday's coming, this person's birthday is coming,
Speaker 1: so you actually act on it.
Speaker 2: I don't want to have a calendar in the toilet
Speaker 2: though it's just on the back door. No one sees it.
Speaker 1: It's just like a little flip one. It's totally fine.
Speaker 2: Okay, that is a great idea. It's a great idea
Speaker 2: because because it's still well and good for me to
Speaker 2: have it written down somewhere or in a calendar. But
Speaker 2: if I don't check it that day, I don't.
Speaker 1: Know exactly, So I think it's actually really good that idea.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like I messaged a really close friend a couple
Speaker 2: of weeks ago and said, hey, is your birthday on
Speaker 2: Monday or Tuesday?
Speaker 3: She goes, it was yesterday.
Speaker 2: Fuck, I'm really shit with my friend's kids as well.
Speaker 2: I just have no idea. I know.
Speaker 1: Actually one of my girlfriends did us spreadsheet with all of.
Speaker 2: The kids' birthday, isn't it. The thing is is that
Speaker 2: I've always been like, oh, I can't keep it until
Speaker 2: the moon can't bite on Lenny's birthday.
Speaker 3: If people forgot, I'd be so annoyed.
Speaker 2: And also, can I do a tip for you for
Speaker 2: the kid's presence? Not necessarily a present. I'm not saying
Speaker 2: a present is necessary, oh but just remembering, just remembering
Speaker 2: to say, hey, give someone to a cuddle for me.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, Well if you do want to send a present,
Speaker 1: I've got a tip for that.
Speaker 3: Amazon.
Speaker 1: Amazon sending a gift like because you can say is
Speaker 1: this a gift and you can send it to them.
Speaker 1: It comes in a gift box and with a little card.
Speaker 1: I mean, they're not expensive gifts. I think I got
Speaker 1: my godson like a lego Matt and a duke plo
Speaker 1: set like I don't know, twenty five thirty bucks or whatever.
Speaker 2: It's a gift wrapping free.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's like a little Amazon gift like it's a
Speaker 2: stair box, but it's got like balloons or like confetti
Speaker 2: or something on it. You know.
Speaker 1: But it makes it a lot easier and then you
Speaker 1: can just have it sent to their house and you
Speaker 1: don't have to worry about anything else.
Speaker 2: That is such a good tip.
Speaker 1: It's a really good tip, really really good tip.
Speaker 2: For like, so you did all out what you want
Speaker 2: it to say on the card as well, Yeah.
Speaker 1: Exactly, and it comes into the little thing like that.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's so good, bloody bezos. He's a clever man. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean, make Fridays more fun for Lynn and stop
Speaker 2: being so anxious about his nap.
Speaker 3: Oh, his nap still controls my life.
Speaker 1: I've just dropped.
Speaker 2: I'm so annoying further my friends because I'll be like, oh, no,
Speaker 2: you'll have to leave by lunchtime, or we have to
Speaker 2: do this time or that time, or you can come over,
Speaker 2: but don't come to laughter three like so irritating, and
Speaker 2: it just controls so much of our Friday. Fine, what
Speaker 2: time is he going to bed at night? Though?
Speaker 3: Like eight thirty two nine, way too late.
Speaker 2: She drop his nap. I think you need to drop
Speaker 2: the nap because I think you'd have an earlier He
Speaker 2: needs that day nap still, But the thing is he doesn't.
Speaker 1: He just needs to be trained to stay up a
Speaker 1: little bit later and then he.
Speaker 2: Can go to bed earlier. I'm like seven seven, I know,
Speaker 2: I just don't seven poll.
Speaker 1: Because he's fucking tired, and he's like literally he'll be
Speaker 1: like bed, mummy, bed, and You're like bed.
Speaker 3: Do you keep them up?
Speaker 2: You have to do activities with them, right, You have
Speaker 2: to do stuff that you have to get out of
Speaker 2: the house.
Speaker 1: That's why you always like you're so good with Rue
Speaker 1: doing stuff. And I'm like, yeah, the walls are fucking
Speaker 1: going to crolose in on me if we sit at
Speaker 1: home all day, Like I'm getting her out, I'm getting
Speaker 1: her tired.
Speaker 2: We do stuff. But in the morning and then in
Speaker 2: the afternoon, Oh.
Speaker 1: Go out for the whole day.
Speaker 2: But he'll just fall asleep.
Speaker 1: Yeah, wake him up, but then he'll yell at me.
Speaker 1: If it is in the car, I'll be like, well
Speaker 1: do you fall into sleep? And She'll be like no,
Speaker 1: and I'm.
Speaker 2: Like, don't you do it. We're really close to home,
Speaker 2: you stay away. Oh yeah, sometimes I do that to Lem,
Speaker 2: but then he ends up just passing out and I'll
Speaker 2: be shaking seat and screaming and up but the music blasting,
Speaker 2: the windows down, and he's just like, well, yeah, my
Speaker 2: kid got his father's sleep habits.
Speaker 3: He can sleep.
Speaker 1: Rue will occasionally still have a day app or whatever, and.
Speaker 3: She's never not had one.
Speaker 2: Well, I think just keep trying.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because like it took three weeks of nine pm
Speaker 1: bedtimes with Rue and we were like, we're cutting the
Speaker 1: daye oup.
Speaker 3: Yeah, kind of works for us.
Speaker 2: Though to be fair, no way would he be ready
Speaker 2: to go to bed at seven like he would. Though
Speaker 2: I'm saying, we don't like even have dinner till seven
Speaker 2: a lot.
Speaker 1: The whole the whole time needs. So now I wash
Speaker 1: Rou as soon as we get home. So it's like
Speaker 1: she comes to the door, I'm like toilet, hands hop
Speaker 1: in the shower, and she's washed, and then I feed
Speaker 1: her and then because I just think that order for
Speaker 1: some reason helps speed up everything, because dinner can drag out.
Speaker 2: Dinner can really drag and then my child likes to
Speaker 2: really drag out the bath time as well, exactly. But
Speaker 2: if you get the bath time straight from school, I
Speaker 2: don't know, there's something a bit quicker about it, because
Speaker 2: then that are like I don't want to be in here.
Speaker 2: I wanted to end with they're hungry as well. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and then quiet time, okay, eat, they're full.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's read books, go to sleep.
Speaker 2: I was even thinking more so along the lines of
Speaker 2: just not worrying, so trying to just be like, hey,
Speaker 2: we're going out for the date. If you fall asleep
Speaker 2: in the car, that's fine.
Speaker 1: Car sleeps are great at this age.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's more so.
Speaker 1: I need to like, yeah, but just go park someone
Speaker 1: with the air cone on.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, just not worry.
Speaker 2: Oh we have to be home at this time, so no,
Speaker 2: it stuff's up the whole day, and then we can't
Speaker 2: really do like super fun stuff. And then I need
Speaker 2: to make more of an effort to have date nights
Speaker 2: with Luke. Yes, and like to actually work them in.
Speaker 2: And we've connect We've got one coming up. Who organized
Speaker 2: it me? We're going to Disolay. Oh that's fun. I
Speaker 2: got us really good seats for his birthday. Oh that's
Speaker 2: cute Onenes's birthday.
Speaker 3: It was in December.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah yeah, just doing a little belated. December's
Speaker 1: very busy, yeah yeah.
Speaker 2: I didn't want to book something for December. Yeah, so
Speaker 2: it's like at the afternoon one and then we'll go
Speaker 2: out for dinner afterwards. So that'll be nice. I know,
Speaker 2: personal love it, reduce screen time, curb addiction to games.
Speaker 1: It's just so funny how you're a gamer.
Speaker 2: I think just like reducing it a little bit.
Speaker 1: You know, what you should do is combine the two,
Speaker 1: So start making content about gaming like you shit games,
Speaker 1: because honestly, that is game is money too.
Speaker 2: They make money.
Speaker 1: But it's just like another facet of your personality that
Speaker 1: actually is aligned and people will follow.
Speaker 2: It's not like I'm playing Minecraft or one of those
Speaker 2: games that people like to watch.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but if you think about the niche things that
Speaker 1: some people get really excited, like, there are more of
Speaker 1: you out there.
Speaker 2: There are more losers out there like you.
Speaker 1: But seriously, I think you should combine the two because
Speaker 1: it would maybe reduce the screen time if you're I
Speaker 1: don't know, or.
Speaker 2: Make me feel less bad about wasting so much time
Speaker 2: per day exactly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, turning it into like a content massive form of income,
Speaker 1: if you will.
Speaker 2: If I get paid to play games, now, that would
Speaker 2: be great. This is sort of like to do with
Speaker 2: health and finance, I guess as well. But it's personal.
Speaker 2: I want to a couple of days per week make
Speaker 2: my own coffee. So I just need to figure out
Speaker 2: a really good recipe. So if anyone has an easy,
Speaker 2: delicious iced coffee recipe, I need it to be strong.
Speaker 2: I need it to be yummy, So something to give
Speaker 2: it yummy sugary flavor, some sort of yummy syrup. If
Speaker 2: it had something additional that was good for me in it,
Speaker 2: that would be ding ding ding, like a collagen or
Speaker 2: protein or one of those things. Yeah, but that you
Speaker 2: can't then taste on key residence. Oh my god. People
Speaker 2: that go, oh, this is the best protein. You can't
Speaker 2: tell that it's protein, Yes you can, Yeah, I protoul
Speaker 2: I hate it and I've got no protein my diet,
Speaker 2: So that would be great to increase it. So just
Speaker 2: like a few still get it for myself a bit.
Speaker 2: That's a treat, but it's just it's a lot of
Speaker 2: money per day it is, and it's not good.
Speaker 3: For my own Well, let's have a look up.
Speaker 2: Let's have a look at it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, superficial.
Speaker 1: Oh oh my gosh, I wish I had this. That's
Speaker 1: a category.
Speaker 2: I want to deal with the sun damage on my chest.
Speaker 1: Okay, laser, it's like laser.
Speaker 2: I don't even know, Like I probably need to try
Speaker 2: harder at home with it, like a pill. Yeah, stuff
Speaker 2: like that. I need to use my LED a little
Speaker 2: bit more on the area. You know, it's really not
Speaker 2: a big deal, but I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't never notice that, no one would.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I put veins back on my list because I
Speaker 2: need to do it. Yeah, I want to do it too.
Speaker 1: Mine is so bad after this pregnancy.
Speaker 2: And also I want to go to a doctor and
Speaker 2: get my hump looked at, because it's like, do I
Speaker 2: keep winging about it and like laughing about it?
Speaker 3: Why don't I just go see if there's anything that
Speaker 3: can be done.
Speaker 2: From a different doctor. Well, I love my adult daughter.
Speaker 2: He's the nicest man. But he kept saying that it
Speaker 2: was fine, and I'm like, okay, fair enough, do you
Speaker 2: know what I mean? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Professional?
Speaker 2: Soessr. It needs to be profitable. Well at the moment,
Speaker 2: it's like not it's not current profitable.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's breaking even basically, but.
Speaker 2: The numbers are there. We just need someone to sell us,
Speaker 2: which we have, so hopefully we just suck at that.
Speaker 2: We don't suck at that way. Yes, people, we're not
Speaker 2: good at sales, so we.
Speaker 3: Never will never signed out to me. Yeah, yeah exactly.
Speaker 2: But like people that are their own business owner type
Speaker 2: thing generally have a little bit of sales savviness, we don't.
Speaker 2: We don't. We don't have the appetite, we don't have
Speaker 2: the We're just here for the content. Yeah, we're just
Speaker 2: content queens. Yeah. And I'm going to be launching substack,
Speaker 2: Sunroom with services, launched bespoke podcast, personalized advice writing that
Speaker 2: is so cool, etc. Because one thing is that I
Speaker 2: want to work more in the service space and providing
Speaker 2: people with services and content rather than stuff. It's funny
Speaker 2: because I've always struggled a lot with subscription methods, I know. Yeah,
Speaker 2: And I'll be like, oh, do they really think that
Speaker 2: they're like bloody Netflix, that they can charge people for
Speaker 2: their content? And it's like, well, yeah, and would you
Speaker 2: rather ete ads of me trying to sell you something
Speaker 2: you probably don't need? Yeah? Yeah, yeah totally. And I
Speaker 2: think my excuse is always oh yeah, but you can
Speaker 2: just skip ahead of ads. But at the end of
Speaker 2: last year, I watched it was a documentary on Netflix.
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's still trending.
Speaker 3: It might be. Did you watch it?
Speaker 2: It's called by Now No Listen. It was nothing new
Speaker 2: or revolutionary or that we didn't know. But I think
Speaker 2: when you're witnessing something in front of your face and
Speaker 2: you're like, holy, it's not just words in your ears.
Speaker 2: You're seeing the devastation that the consumption crisis is causing,
Speaker 2: Hearing about like from people that have worked for these
Speaker 2: big companies, it really does just make you go, fucking hell,
Speaker 2: what am I encouraging? Yeah, And like I've always sort
Speaker 2: of said and been, you know, if I'm talking about
Speaker 2: a mascara, I'm not saying that you need to buy
Speaker 2: this mesca if you've already got six. I'm saying, if
Speaker 2: you need a new mascara in your routine, and no
Speaker 2: one needs a miscas, this is a great one. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you don't need seven mascaras, or you shouldn't have seven mascaras.
Speaker 2: I never want to like encourage over consumption. And so
Speaker 2: I was sort of thinking about that and then also,
Speaker 2: I was having a conversation with a girlfriend of mine
Speaker 2: and we were talking about how I think I mentioned
Speaker 2: this to you, about how her son really loves that
Speaker 2: app that he's learnt so much from. Oh, but the
Speaker 2: subscription notification came up for her on the ipadtern it
Speaker 2: said renew for forty nine to ninety ninety year, and
Speaker 2: she went, oh, oh, my goodness, like fifty bucks for
Speaker 2: a stupid app to use, Like so stupid. And then
Speaker 2: she's like, wait, I'd easily going to came out spend
Speaker 2: fifty bucks without thinking shit, that we don't even need,
Speaker 2: but because it's like a tangible item, we just feel
Speaker 2: better about it for some reason in our head, rather
Speaker 2: than this service that isn't impacting on the environment in
Speaker 2: the same capacity. Yes, something that's.
Speaker 1: Actually beneficial, beneficial.
Speaker 3: In so many different regards.
Speaker 2: So just trying to concentrate more on and I don't
Speaker 2: exactly know what it's going to look like yet to
Speaker 2: a full capacity, but not so much selling stuff as
Speaker 2: just like offering.
Speaker 3: Up different services.
Speaker 2: I love that content and just being like, well, you
Speaker 2: know what, guys, if you don't want to pay for it,
Speaker 2: don't pay for it. Yeah, but I think follow someone
Speaker 2: that wants to sell you more teeth whitening. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean I'm not saying I'm never going to be
Speaker 2: doing spawn or talking about products, but just.
Speaker 1: Just getting like a little bit savvy and having longevity.
Speaker 2: And yeah, it sounds like you're.
Speaker 1: Creating like a product, like your own product to sell now.
Speaker 3: Thing that people will be holding in their hands.
Speaker 2: No no knowledge inside, and no one needs more stuff
Speaker 2: and no one needs another small business owner buying stuff
Speaker 2: off Alley Express and then trying to market up and
Speaker 2: sell it everyone. It's just not what the world needs
Speaker 2: and making more of an effort with TikTok and affiliate
Speaker 2: linking when I do promote product because I'm so bad
Speaker 2: with it and you can make so much money off
Speaker 2: you can't work it out.
Speaker 1: I honestly can't work.
Speaker 3: It's really time consuming.
Speaker 2: And I see people you're doing it so much, and
Speaker 2: I'm like, how do you have the time to find
Speaker 2: that many affiliate links? Yeah? I don't get it, Like
Speaker 2: it adds five minutes every time you're looking for an affiliate. Also,
Speaker 2: all the stuff I like doesn't have a link, I'm
Speaker 2: likely annoying and I only want to put things up
Speaker 2: that I've used all stuff you like, not just like
Speaker 2: a random top yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3: Anyway, those are my goals. So we just ended up
Speaker 3: going on so many different tangents.
Speaker 2: But that's such a good conversation starter, and I think
Speaker 2: people listening it might spark a goal for them something
Speaker 2: that we've talked about or touched on.
Speaker 1: I think it's great. Welcome to twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2: We're xactly and like we said at the top of
Speaker 2: the show, we really want to know what your are. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: but thank you so much for joining us today. And

Speaker 1: bit of my Matt Lee.

Speaker 1: And we're trying here we will have some sort of
Speaker 1: a break or be less frequent, but we're trying.
Speaker 2: To reduce the number of shows that will lose, So
