  1. She lost her dad... and we didn't know how to help

    2 DAYS AGO

    She lost her dad... and we didn't know how to help

    The Catch-Up ☀️ 🍹 Larissa has been away in all-inclusive heaven - sun, relaxation and unlimited buffet access. Although… she’s slightly ashamed to admit she actually missed cooking. Domestic goddess behaviour. 🛒 Charlotte caught someone shoplifting, and honestly the retelling is giving full-on citizen’s arrest in the middle aisle. Equal parts heroic and chaotic. 💌 Fern has been making the most of some unexpected child-free time and has bravely stepped back into the dating world. After being ghosted on Hinge, she’s finally been on a date! And apparently, the biggest green flag these days is simply… him turning up. This Week’s Topic: Mental Health Awareness Week 💛 This week we’re talking about mental health, grief, support systems and the importance of knowing you’re not alone. 🫶 We ask the question: Are we talking about mental health more now… or is there genuinely more of it? 💬 Fern believes supporting someone is often just about listening - letting them feel heard and knowing you’re there for them without trying to “fix” everything. 💔 Charlotte opens up about losing her dad, and honestly… it’s one of the deepest conversations we’ve had. Charlotte reflects on how she coped at the time - or didn’t. Eating too much. Drinking too much. Escaping back into university life and avoiding the grief. She admits she never really spoke about it, and this episode is probably the most we’ve ever discussed it together. 😢 People often assume you don’t want to talk about loss… when actually, sometimes you desperately do. Charlotte shares that while it doesn’t necessarily get easier, you do slowly learn how to carry it differently. 🤍 Larissa admits she didn’t really know how to support Charlotte at the time, worrying that bringing things up might trigger more pain. And that’s something a lot of us relate to - mental health and grief can feel incredibly complex to navigate. The Takeaway If you’re struggling, feeling low, overwhelmed or grieving something 💛 please try and talk to someone. You are not weak. You are not dramatic. And you are definitely not alone. A very honest episode about grief, friendship, support and learning how to show up for the people we love - even when we don’t always know how.

  2. The things we wish we didn't share online

    5 MAY

    The things we wish we didn't share online

    The Catch-Up ☕️ 🏚️ Larissa is back battling the builders - shouting into the void and getting absolutely nowhere. At this point, we’re seriously asking… should we just retrain as tradies? 🧘‍♀️ Fern has been deep in her yoga era, sore biceps and all. But, the real headline… 📱 SHE’S BACK ON HINGE. Yes, it’s happening. Updates pending. 😴 Charlotte has gone a bit quiet this week - less chaos, more cocooning. She’s focusing on herself, catching up on sleep and fully leaning into what her aura ring is telling her. Rest is productive… apparently. This Week’s Topic: Have We Overshared? A bold question for three women with microphones… 🎙️ Charlotte says yes, but in a good way. It’s opened up conversations she probably wouldn’t have had otherwise… but it also means everyone has an opinion, including unexpected contributors (hi Fern’s mum 👀). She reminds us - this is a one way diary. 🤍 Fern feels comfortable sharing, mainly because her story now feels like a closed chapter. But it does raise the question… how would she feel if her girls listened back one day? She’s thought about what she shares and it shows. 🧠 Charlotte points out that Fern processes things before speaking - something that clearly mirrors how she shows up in her work too. Can we learn how to do that too?! 💬 Larissa doesn’t think she’s overshared, but does wonder how Mike feels about it all. Her parents? Not fans of the poop chat… but she stands firm: proud to poop. The Bigger Conversation ✨ Despite everything, good things come from sharing - messages, connection, people feeling seen. 🗣️ Larissa finds it genuinely cathartic - like she’s got her voice back. More confidence, more ownership: 👉 “I own my narrative.” 📱 We reflect on pre-podcast days… Facebook statuses, “DM me hun” energy - chaotic and cringe.. 🤔 So now we ask: Are we posting for connection… or validation? We all agree, it’s shifted. It’s about connection now. ⏳ But will we look back in 10 years and cringe? (Short answer: we doubt it.) 🔒 Are private people happier? Would we all benefit from just… locking our phones in the car and switching off? The Reality Check We might come across as open books… But actually? 📖 We’re open on our terms, but love to share our lives with you all. Honest, unfiltered, slightly unhinged - and a reminder that sharing your story is powerful… even if it makes your mum cringe.

  3. Zodiac Signs & Compatibility - are our relationships written in the stars?

    28 APR

    Zodiac Signs & Compatibility - are our relationships written in the stars?

    It’s another week of Married. Single. Divorced., and we’re bringing sunshine, travel chaos and a slightly mystical twist. The Catch-Up ☀️ 👕 Washing on the line is back and honestly, nothing says “life is good” like sun-dried clothes. 🇳🇱 Fern took the girls to the Netherlands and delivered a full itinerary like the organised queen she is - think lots of walking, getting lost around canals, and the constant paranoia of are these cakes… space cakes? Highlight: falling off a bus seat. Graceful as ever. 😳 Charlotte was hit with the ultimate auntie question: “How are babies made?” Auntie Char Char did have answers… but is still questioning how she ended up in that situation in the first place. 🐣 Larissa has been deep in Easter mode - egg hunts, life admin and trudging through the more mundane bits of life while trying to prep for upcoming holidays. It’s giving organised chaos. This Week’s Topic: Zodiac Signs & Compatibility - are our relationships written in the stars? Do we believe in them… or is it all a bit of fun? ✨ Charlotte introduces a magic 8-ball style pen (because of course she does), and somehow this all spirals from the very important question: 👉 “Does he have ginger pubes?” 🤷‍♀️ Larissa thinks it’s a crock of shite… but also low-key enjoys it. Contradictory queen. 🔮 Charlotte fully leans in when she’s lacking direction - horoscopes, guidance… and WAIT… She casually drops that she has tarot cards. Of course she does. ♍♎♊ We break down the star signs - Virgo, Libra, Gemini - who’s who? And ask the big question: ✨ Were the stars always destined for us to be friends? 💘 We also get into relationship vs friendship compatibility - because apparently they are not the same thing. 👀 Was Mr Charismatic written in the stars… or was that just a life lesson? And what about the ones that got away? What the Stars Say We Want 💫 💭 Larissa: fun, intellectual, good connection, conversation and variety 💖 Fern: partnership, romance, emotional harmony and a shared social life 🧠 Charlotte: stable, loyal, emotionally supportive and mentally stimulating. 🔢 We also discover life path numbers (because why stop at star signs?) 😂 Fern remembers having her tarot cards read at 18 - spoiler: they were wrong on every single count. ✨ Final thoughts: Larissa: “If it brings happiness and positivity, I’m into it.” 🌈 Fern’s mum: living proof that putting good energy out into the world and hoping it comes back might actually be the real magic. A little bit mystical, a little bit chaotic, and a reminder that sometimes it’s just fun to believe in something.

  4. Embarrassing moments, childhood lies and pure chaos.

    21 APR

    Embarrassing moments, childhood lies and pure chaos.

    It’s another week of Married. Single. Divorced., and this one is giving chaos, confusion and absolutely zero structure… just how we like it. The Catch-Up ☕️ 🥐 We kicked things off with a gorgeous Sunday brunch at a friend’s house - wholesome, civilised… a false sense of calm before the chaos. ✈️ Fern has been deep in holiday prep mode, packing, booking and getting everything sorted for her trip (organised queen behaviour). 💃 Charlotte pulled a disco shift at her old workplace, essentially getting paid to be social -the dream, really. One of the chefs has also asked Charlotte to pass on a message to Fern that he’s “free on Tuesdays”… we’ll leave that there 😉 She also took herself off to Blackpool Ballroom for a dance, because of course she did. 👟 Larissa bought Phoebe some new shoes and has otherwise been… plodding. Nothing major to report aside from suffering after a very spicy Korean meal. We’ve all been there. This Week’s Episode: Pure Chaos Energy No deep dives. No emotional breakthroughs. Just a random, silly billy, unhinged episode. 🚨 Larissa shares the story of running out of an alterations shop and calling the police - as you do. 🧥 “Green jumper!” - yes, the jumper that simply will not die makes another appearance. 😂 We ask the important questions: Does everyone have weird nicknames for their friends?And… ham bag, anyone?🌳 We explore childhood logic, including: 💰 Money trees in the garden and leprechauns casually delivering cash 🚫 Being told not to press pedestrian crossing buttons or eat mushroom skin (??) 🌉 Charlotte casually shut Barton Bridge - no further questions. 🚽 And because we can’t help ourselves: 🚆 Pooing on a train in Vietnam 🚻 Weeing on trains ⛷️ Outdoor wees while skiing (a skill, apparently) 🐐 And finally… How many goats is too many goats? We still don’t have an answer. Absolutely chaotic, slightly feral, and guaranteed to make you question everything.

  5. Do women actually support other women?

    14 APR

    Do women actually support other women?

    It’s another week of Married. Single. Divorced., and we’re coming to you slightly exhausted, mildly emotional… but fed (thanks to Charlotte). The Catch-Up ☕️ 🍛 Charlotte hosted and cooked us dinner - a fish curry that absolutely slapped. The week itself? Very much survival mode. Tired, running on fumes, but still showing up (as always). 🏚️ Larissa has been deep in house chaos, chasing builders, getting the car cleaned (small wins), and navigating a week where the world felt like it was slightly imploding… with a fair amount of crying thrown in. 💪 Fern has been the strong one this week, holding it all together while the rest of us unravel. She also went out for a big family meal celebrating grandparents’ birthdays and left feeling inspired to stay fit, healthy and live well. Wholesome energy restored. This Week’s Topic: Supporting Other Women 🤍 This one was inspired by a message from one of our lovely listeners and it got us thinking… Do we actually reach out to support and encourage others? Or do we hold back? 🤔 Fern admits she hesitates sometimes, worried people might think she’s weird for reaching out. 💬 Charlotte loves reaching out, especially to women on socials - but reflects that when she was in her small business era, that support wasn’t always reciprocated. 👀 We get into the uncomfortable question: how do you handle it when someone has something you really want? 💔 Larissa shares how difficult she found it when friends were getting pregnant, and how those feelings can be hard to navigate, even when you want to be supportive. 🗣️ Charlotte says she likes to think she’s supportive, but sometimes struggles with knowing the right thing to say. 🏫 We also reflect on how women are often pitched against each other, especially growing up - all-girls schools, competition, comparison… it’s been ingrained in us more than we realise. ✨ But — there’s been a shift. We’re seeing more women supporting women, especially online, and it’s something we’re here for. Work Life & Bosses 👩‍💼 👑 Larissa had a “woman goals” boss who she absolutely adored. 💫 Charlotte also had an incredible female boss, who she recently reached out to - because some people really do leave a lasting impact. 😬 Fern’s experience? Not so great. She had a female boss who was pretty awful and completely de-incentivised her at work. 🤝 We all agree though — when it comes to talking things through, we naturally turn to women. The Takeaway 🌱 Fern is focused on raising kind, positive girls - teaching them to reframe, support others, and be good humans. And ultimately… 💛 we realise we are supportive women and we’re lucky to have each other. Honest conversations, a few hard truths, and a reminder that lifting each other up really does matter.

  6. Emotional Cheating Vs Physical Cheating

    7 APR

    Emotional Cheating Vs Physical Cheating

    It’s another week of Married. Single. Divorced., and we’re back with dating disasters, lingering feelings and a topic that gets very real, very quickly. The Catch-Up ☕️ 📱 Fern is back on Hinge and wow, it’s a jungle out there. She matched with someone who was missing his top four teeth… safe to say, that one didn’t make it past the chat. Standards remain intact. 💬 Charlotte brings us “The Favourite” update…She’d made peace with never seeing him again - very zen, very evolved, but he was still living rent-free in her head. So… she texted him. And yes, he replied. And yes, Fern absolutely lost her shit at the response. The question now is: does Charlotte actually want to keep that door open…? 🤧 Larissa is full of a cold, but the weather is gorgeous so it’s been park days galore. She’s also had a massage and is now floating through life, albeit slightly congested. This Week’s Topic: Emotional Cheating vs Physical Cheating A big one… and surprisingly, we’re all aligned. 💔 Fern, Charlotte and Larissa all agree - emotional cheating hits harder. It’s not just the act… it’s the connection, the secrecy, the intention. 📸 Fern shares a moment from her past relationship, finding a photo of a naked woman on Mr Charismatics phone. Was it “just a picture”… or something more? 🤯 Charlotte questions how people even manage to maintain emotional relationships in secret, and shares a story of a friend uncovering cheating through a phone backup to a laptop… technology really will expose you. 😤 Larissa admits she’d be the grudge-holder - we’re talking rage, cutting up clothes, full emotional fallout. No pretending everything’s fine here. The Real Talk 💬 Fern reflects on life after her relationship, and how (despite everything) it’s actually easier being on her own than living with resentment and no love. “My kids are better in the house they’re in than the house they could have been in.” 🤝 Larissa agrees, saying loyalty matters across all relationships, not just romantic ones. And then we rewind a bit… 🍿 Larissa shares the very chaotic early days with Mike - think messy timelines, revenge Facebook photos, drunken nights, strippers… a full “no one knows what’s going on but we’re all in it” era. Ah, to be 18 again (or… maybe not). Messy, emotional, and a reminder that not all betrayal looks the same - but it all leaves a mark.

  7. My situationship just told me he's dating other people...

    31 MAR

    My situationship just told me he's dating other people...

    The Catch-Up ☕️ 🏡 Larissa’s house is finally starting to look like… a house! Windows and doors are in (we repeat: progress!), but now comes the chaos of when do you order a kitchen? Polly Positive is still present… but only just. 💔 Charlotte has been spiralling — and we mean spiralling. She’s picked up on a shift in energy from “the favourite” / “the dancer”… and yep, her gut was right. They meet for a drink. The conversation happens. And the truth? He’s been on a date. Charlotte already knew… but there’s a big difference between knowing and living it. 😶 “I don’t ask questions because I don’t want to know the answers.” 💬 “Don’t use my words against me.” 🤡 “At least this is content for your podcast.” Cue the call to Fern, all the tears, blowing her nose on her vest and being angry at the world. Charlotte’s mum sums it up best: “fucking idiot.” 🦉 Fern steps in as the wise old owl, reminding Charlotte she’s allowed to feel it all. No rushing. No fixing. Just feeling. By the end of it, Charlotte is a “bleedin raisin” - no tears, no mucus membranes, nothing left to give. ✨ “Cry until there’s nothing left to cry.” ✨ “It will open up space for something else.” - Fern’s mums wisdom we’re holding onto. Charlotte, composed as ever, even hits him with: “You’re so lucky I’m not on my period.” Iconic, really. The Big Question: Can Boys and Girls Just Be Friends? 👀 A debate as old as time… 🚫 Fern says no. 😬 Charlotte wants to say yes… but isn’t fully convinced. We get into blurred lines, “best friends,” and the uncomfortable truth that sometimes… 👉 “You’re best friends… until your penis falls in her.” And how often do we pretend we’re fine with it just so we don’t come across as “psycho”? So we’re asking you - Can men and women really just be friends? Or are we all lying to ourselves? Fern’s Weekly Update ✨ 🍽️ Finally made it to Six by Nico - although her mum couldn’t quite keep up with the wine flight. And she’s been smashing gym sessions with her daughter - routine, structure, sanity. Big feelings, brutal honesty, and one of those episodes that really hits.

  8. The Great Debate - Do men have it easier than women?

    24 MAR

    The Great Debate - Do men have it easier than women?

    It’s another week of Married. Single. Divorced., and we’re back with life updates that include slow renovations, surprise DMs and stepping in for fine dining. The Catch-Up ☕️ 🏚️ Larissa’s house updates continue… slowly. Everything is dragging, patience is thin, but she did step up to cook for her mum’s dinner party and then felt personally attacked by how old she felt watching the Brits. 💃 Charlotte is back dancing on a Wednesday (as she should be) and has received a very random DM from ‘short shorts’ - because the universe never lets things rest. 🍽️ Fern’s dad has been suffering with a gallstone, meaning he couldn’t use his Christmas present, a Six by Nico tasting menu. Naturally, Fern was a hero and offered to step in. Meanwhile, her parents are taking the girls to London and are ready to tick off all the sights. Core memories incoming. This Week’s Topic: Do Men Have It Easier Than Women? We’re diving straight into it… and yes, opinions are strong. 😤 Larissa says hands down men have it easier. Physiologically? Absolutely. But are men just wired differently? That’s the bigger question. Larissa is firmly in her man-bashing era, feeling like women just have it tougher, full stop. 🤍 Fern shares a moment at work where a male colleague simply said, “you don’t deserve this” and the outreach of support meant so much. Fern reflects on being the default parent, questioning whether men are missing things or just wired differently when it comes to responsibility. Fern admits she just wants a day off - no responsibilities, no pressure. 💸 Charlotte questions the male/female pay gap - and naturally talk turns to first date expectations (Larissa says yes, he should pay), and whether this all ties into masculine and feminine energy. We talk Blue jobs vs pink jobs and how Charlotte finds herself naturally falling into gendered roles at work. Ultimately, Charlotte just wants to “dick around with my big dick energy.” By the end of it, we land on this: 💜 Fern and Charlotte are living in the “purple jobs” era - aka doing everything. And don’t worry… Girls have gossip. And apparently, that’s what will save us all. Real talk, big opinions, and a reminder that we’re all just trying to navigate a world that doesn’t always feel balanced.
