  • Having a Public Panic Attack
    Sep 23 2024

    What's happening? Why, when I was feeling fine, 'doing ok,' and 'coping', do I suddenly feel like I've been hit by a sledgehammer and fallen down a well of darkness?

    It's been almost five months since my mum passed.

    This is a behind-the-scenes podcast. One of those we never expected to record. But record we did.

    I've never had a public panic attack before. I didn't have a clue what was happening. But I do now, and we wanted to share this podcast episode with you in the hope that it might help you in some small, comforting way.

    Thank you for being with us; you are loved, you are needed, and our hearts always beat with yours.

    Your friends,

    Liz and Brian x

  • Tears in the Toilet. Returning to New Zealand
    Sep 16 2024

    Liz and Brian are back in New Zealand. They flew from Chiang Mai via Bangkok and China and, thirty hours later, were home in Taranaki, New Zealand. Tucked up in bed.

    But flying home to NZ didn't go smoothly. In fact, it was a sodding fiasco.

    What started as a dream-come-true-flight ended with wet knickers and tears.

    And not only that, the food on the plane was sh*t.

    Sit back and listen to the story of the return flight

    Enjoy!

  • Losing it (all) in Thailand
    Aug 19 2024

    Combining much-needed dental work with a holiday, Liz and Brian left New Zealand and are in Thailand for a month.

    Brought to you from their bedroom in Chiang Mai, Northern Thailand, they are ready to share the story of how they went from feeling utterly stressed and wound up like a screw to feeling chilled and relaxed and floppy like a pair of braless breasts.

    Find out what Liz and Brian are doing in Chiang Mai to relax, what happened at the airport, and why the smell of sandalwood might probably make Liz sick forever.

    Liz goes braless; Brian goes commando, and the taxi driver's wife goes without saying. Thank you for being with us in Thailand!

    Enjoy!

  • When you Work More than you Rest. The Fear of Stopping (& losing everything)
    Aug 12 2024

    This week has been horrible, it really has.

    I'm sorry, but we have more sad news to share. Thank you for being here and letting us talk about it.

    We also share the difficulties of being able to rest. I for one, struggle to differentiate between work and rest, and as I made this episode, I realised that I might be using the excuse of "but I LOVE to create" to distract myself from grief.

    Either that or I'm a workaholic.

    The truth is, I'm scared of dropping the balls that I've spent years learning to juggle. If this sounds like you, I think you'll enjoy this episode.

    This is such a fascinating topic, and I intend to write about it in-depth (obviously not when I'm supposed to be resting with Brian...) for my private newsletter readers.

    You can sign up for that newsletter here.

    For now, please enjoy this episode and thank you again for being you. I love and appreciate you.

  • Drama in Vegas. (Over) worrying about our 23-yr-old son
    Aug 5 2024

    Is it Just Me? Wouldn't every mother be the same?

    Our son is on holiday in Vegas. And of course, there've been a few dramas.

    What was interesting, though, was how Liz and Brian reacted differently to some worrying news.

    Go on, Bri. Put the coffee pot on...

    Enjoy!

  • Hor-Moans. Taking Testosterone & resisting the URGE to edit your life
    Jul 29 2024

    There's been a bit of a to-do in New Zealand this week.

    A shortage of HRT. Scary stuff...

    Talking about taking hormone replacement, Brian shares why he takes Testosterone, and the couple discuss their battle to stay true, keep it real and refrain from hitting the delete button whenever they make a mistake.

    Enjoy!

  • Staying. In New Zealand
    Jul 17 2024

    Stay.

    This week we were given a huge reminder. Something that changed the way Liz sees things. The stars aligned. Questions were answered.

    On one sunny morning in New Zealand, suddenly everything made sense.

    This podcast is sent to you with love. We appreciate you always and hope this simple kiwi reminder brings you the comfort that it brought us.

    Our hearts beat with yours,

    Liz and Brian x
