Today we're covering the first six weeks. The sleep deprivation. The stitches. The loneliness. The "ChatGPT is my friend" phase. The not-being-able-to-poo. The day you realise your life isn't really over, you've just been subjected to one of the worst forms of torture, and now you're all good.

She lived 60 peaceful years without touching a drug… then she discovered the most addictive drug of all... Cardio. Now Linda’s entire personality is getting gold at BFT.

Also she insisted I share her fave 60+ fitness accounts:

• cheryl.c.coulombe
• Suzi_j
• theresa_moloney
• Drstacysims

Panty liner-gate continues... Then it's time for another birth story! This time it's the day I was birthed from Linda.

So, I have some news. Since the last time we recorded, I had a baby!!! And trigger warning: I have an extremely low pain threshold; therefore, this is probs not an accurate representation of many birth stories. I was, quote, "literally dying" at 1cm dilated.

Next week... Linda's (unmedicated) birth story!

Linda tells me about a strange encounter at a dinner party, and I tell her about my even stranger dream.

We will do ANYTHING except sit with ourselves in silence. But surely there are alternatives to meditation that can give us some peace?!

We are SORRY for the long break between episodes!! Who knows how many of you have persevered... but thank you if you're still here listening. We're back to chat about G-Banger's birthday in Daylesford, my screenwriting course, a recent LinkedIn post about 30 Under 30 lists and my ex-boyfriend's new TV series Sugar.

It's storytime today on the podcast. A few years ago, I decided I wanted to learn how to write. But somehow, this "hobby" turned into a side hustle and all the joy was sucked out of it. Linda also realises her only true hobby has been collecting James Dean posters and postcards... Hmm, that's certainly a hobby I've never heard of, but whatever floats your boat, Linda!
