Missta Mums Demi Duncan and Melinda Baxter

Todays episode is proudly Brought to you by Womb Nutrition and The Beauty Company.

This is Tom’s first time chatting publicly about parenting as he is mostly is interviewed about mental health and his infamous decision to walk away from AFL and “give up” $2million to end his contract at The Bulldogs. Tom has a (nearly) 2 year old daughter named Armani, and a wife named Anna. Although Demi couldn’t help but quiz Tom on his incredibly interesting and unique AFL career, we get to learn about Tom’s life before football, a bit about his own parents “parenting styles” and how that shaped him, as well as his insightful goals and thoughts about his own parenting style and the importance of a solid relationship. Tom mentioned he is generally misunderstood as arrogant and felt that being an overachiever as a child can at times be detrimental and shameful. Tom is an incredibly intelligent, logical and down to earth guy who is able to articulate and explain things so clearly! We learnt so much from him! Post football, Tom has released a book 'Nowhere to Hide', works in the mental health space with Work Safe and has a full-time job in football analytics! We hope you love this chat as much as we did!!

Today's chat is for all of our business girlies!!

Phoebe Simmonds, owner of The Memo, the famous online and boutique store front for parents; Your feel good parenting destination to help make big decisions, easy. Here, you can find a quality curation of the best baby brands on the planet and everything a new parent needs to feel good, prepared and supported when raising a child.

An inspiring business chat that we recorded in Phoebe's flagship boutique store in Armadale. We chatted in depth about where the idea of The Memo came from and how they found such a gap in the market when it came to giving parents-to-be / parents more than just product information, instead they provide an experience and education when shopping and handpick key essential items instead of stocking everything making it a little less overwhelming for parents to making decisions on things.

You will be able to feel Lorinska's upbeat energy through your speakers! She is so fun and we loved having her in the studio!

Lorinska is a mum of 3, Penelope, Florence and Edward.

Lorinska famously leads a glamorous life but chats to us about how her perfect world flipped upside down after giving birth to her 3rd child, Edward! All her parenting tricks and techniques that worked for her older two "perfectly behaved" girls, doesn't work on her darling son! She chats about how she could never relate to sleep deprived parents and has since drastically changed the way she speaks about parenting.

We chat about her "overnight" fame with the hit series, Yummy Mummies and how life changed from it's debut to Netflix!

Life is chaotic for Lorinska but she bares all to her loyal followers and loves every second of her the challenges!



You will leave this chat feeling so uplifted after a good giggle, like we did!

We sit down with (another) one of Demi's friends, Candice Smith. Wife to Isaac Smith, mother of 2, (Isla and Emmett) and co-owner of Home At Heart.

Candice, for the first time speaks openly about the traumatic period in their life when their son, Emmett, was diagnosed with CMV (Cytomegalovirus). What started with a failed hearing test at birth which was assumed to be fluid in the ears lead to a much more serious diagnosis.

Candice then speaks honestly about her miscarriage after Emmett, in which she felt "relieved" as she was beginning to recover from the trauma of her sons diagnosis. She acknowledges this may be hard to hear for many women. After time passed, the pair tried for another baby in an attempt to grow their family which unfortunately resulted in another miscarriage.

They still hope to grow their family and Candice shares her mental strength as she endures the pain of miscarriage.
