    Relationships, The Bachelor & Falling in Love... with Thomas Malucelli (my now boyfriend!)

    Relationships, The Bachelor & Falling in Love... with Thomas Malucelli (my now boyfriend!)

    YEP - you read that right.
    This episode was recorded in May 2023 - the first time Thomas and I met in person. I was put in touch with Thomas through a mutual contact. "He's just come off the Bachelor - this will be a great interview!" she said.
    As soon as he stepped into the studio, I felt that there could be a vibe but I kept things #professional. It wasn't until the cameras were switched off that we truly got chatting - laughing, flirting and talking about what we were both looking for in our dating lives.
    In the months that followed, Thomas tried to organise a catch-up but my life was a whirlwind as I got ready to move to America!
    Finally, I came home briefly in October to renew my passport and we went on our first official date. "I'm only home for 3 weeks!" I thought... "What's really going to happen here..."
    6 months later and we're going strong navigating long distance and very much in love.
    The universe always has a plan! I'm SO grateful we have our first-ever encounter recorded on camera to remember in the years to come.

    3 Pregnancies in 1 Year: Navigating Pregnancy Loss with Mother & Creative - Bec Bond

    3 Pregnancies in 1 Year: Navigating Pregnancy Loss with Mother & Creative - Bec Bond

    DISCLAIMER: Today’s episode discusses themes of pregnancy loss and miscarriage - please reach out to the resources below for further support.
    Bec Bond is a mother and talented calligrapher and photographer based on the Central Coast of Australia. She’s a compassionate advocate for fertility awareness and has become a beacon of hope in the community.
    After a healthy first pregnancy and a beautiful baby girl born in 2020, on the 22nd March 2023 Bec gave birth to her son Otis Corbon Bond at 20 weeks pregnant - who had a rare heart condition.
    A few months later, she fell pregnant, in her words - the “hope she needed’ - only to miscarry shortly after. I didn’t know it, but at the time of recording this episode in late 2023, Bec was in the early stages of her third pregnancy - only to recently navigate another miscarriage at 8 weeks.
    The day we're releasing this is International Women's Day. 1 in 10 women worldwide will navigate pregnancy loss or infertility in their life. We’re indebted to women like Bec who are courageous enough to share their stories.
    This is a story of solidarity, hope and resilience. Bec - thank you for your strength and thank you for trusting me with your story.
