You've got a new baby, Harvey, 51 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,639 Speaker 3: who's nine months old. But I think the first time 52 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:22,239 Speaker 3: I heard you being really vulnerable was on a iHeart 53 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 3: radio podcast, The Perfect. 54 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 2: Steph and I have both been on that podcast. 55 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 1: He's a legend. He's a legend. 56 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 3: I'm still waiting for the call to get on the podcast. 57 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 3: But Steph, you spoke about body image, which which personally 58 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 3: I can actually relate to a little bit because I 59 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 3: as a young teenager weirdly which is on this diet 60 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 3: and had a bit a few body image issues. So 61 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 3: do you hear you talk about it was really really powerful, 62 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 3: And I wonder for you when you were going through 63 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 3: pregnancy and your body was changing, and obviously you know 64 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 3: coming back after giving birth, how you've dealt with all that. 65 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it's I mean, it's such a great question. 66 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 4: It's definitely something that you know, most women go through 67 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,639 Speaker 4: a bit of emotion of their body changing and deal 68 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 4: with it very differently. But I think because I've had 69 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,640 Speaker 4: my struggles in the past and I've worked through that 70 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 4: and grown a lot through that experience, that helped me 71 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 4: a lot in dealing with these new changes. 72 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 1: And I think. 73 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 4: Whenever I started to feel a little insecure or question things. 74 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 4: I just kind of dove, especially in the early stages 75 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 4: of pregnancy. I dove into, you know, what was actually 76 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,239 Speaker 4: happening to my body, what was it actually going through, 77 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 4: and just being really fascinated with how it was working. 78 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:30,959 Speaker 4: And then I appreciated it on a whole other level 79 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 4: and it didn't really matter so. 80 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: Much what it looked like. 81 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 4: And now having Harvey, like, just can't even tell you 82 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 4: how much I love this thing. Honestly, it's an obsession 83 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 4: and I think I'm just super proud of what my 84 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 4: body did to create that and bring him into the world. 85 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 4: And yeah, I think once you start to learn about 86 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 4: what actually happens and the magic of childbirth and pregnancy 87 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 4: in general, I mean, at least for me, I was 88 00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 4: able to kind of squash any insecurities that came up 89 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 4: because it didn't matter so much. Yeah. 90 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 2: Nice, it's a it's a lovely message. It's been an 91 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 2: amazing journey that I know you you you've done beautifully 92 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 2: publicly as well, Steph.

Comms is always the key, isn't it, because you 157 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 3: can make assumptions about what the other person's thinking, which 158 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 3: can be so so wrong. 159 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 2: So I'm having a baby in a caple, Steph, and 160 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 2: I think one of the things that I'm one hundred 161 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 2: percent most keen on is just making sure that I 162 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 2: have some sort of connection with the child, and I 163 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 2: interested to know your thoughts because with your partner, I 164 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 2: don't know if he felt he's the same way, but 165 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 2: I currently feel like I have no connection to the baby, 166 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 2: like it's just there's all this stuff going on with sem. 167 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 2: Did you feel the same way where you were late 168 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 2: in the pregnancy where you are like, you know, it 169 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,119 Speaker 2: almost felt like a little bit more of your load 170 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 2: than it did his. And when did that shift? 171 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 3: It does? 172 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 4: It does for sure, I think mentally, emotionally, hormonally like 173 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 4: it does affect the woman differently.
