Can you be 100% present at work when you’re a parent?
Ellen Pompeo (aka Meredith from Grey’s Anatomy) was on Call Her Daddy recently and said it’s impossible to be 100% present at work if you’re a mother because there will always be a part of you that’s thinking about your kid(s). Steph recommended the episode last week and Laura listened so we could unpack it together. Plus we speak about the news of Ellen’s $20 million dollar contract and why we hate women speaking about money. Also - it’s Easter this weekend and let this be your reminder that you don’t have to “earn” chocolate or “work it off” afterwards.

What Steph will do differently with baby no. 2
All of the lessons that Steph learned with Harvey that she’ll do again, or leave behind, for baby number two! Last year we posted a question box about Steph’s second pregnancy and sooo many of your questions were about what Steph will do differently this time around - so we’ve put all the things together in this episode. Think - nappies, monitors, communication, sleep routines, transitioning to solids, and more.

Let’s stop asking if people are pregnant
We’ve got a bit going on this week! First up - a group of content creators, founders & podcasters (mostly women) were invited to Canberra to attend the Budget lock-up and were dismissed as "self-obsessed Gen-Z and millennial influencers". We share our feelings about the term "influencer" and how we feel when it's applied to us. Plus we share some of the rogue DMs we’ve received recently. Someone told Laura she looked pregnant which inspired us to chat about the pressure women feel to suck their tummies in. And can men and women be friends? Not according to someone who saw Josh at a concert with his best (female) mate and messaged Steph about it.

Liv Morrison is an accredited clinical dietitian & nutritionist and is the in-house dietician for the Kic app. This episode is all about the link between eating disorders and ADHD. Why is there such a strong link between the two? Does one eating disorder show up more in ADHDers than others? What's dopamine got to do with it? Plus Steph & Liv speak about eating for ADHD - what foods and nutrients are best for focus and energy, the importance of protein, organising your fridge to better suit an ADHDers' brain, and how to deal with a suppressed appetite while taking ADHD meds.
