He said “The sooner you normalise this the better”

In this episode, Louise and Ryan share the journey of Winnie and her lovingly named 'Trouser Coughs.'

Louise discusses how she unexpectedly found comfort in the idea of having her colon removed, while Ryan opens up about what happened when they received the news that there would be yet another round of major surgery.

Ryan also shares the advice he received from the men in his life during this time, along with some incredibly poignant words of wisdom for expecting fathers.

PLUS, it’s the first-ever audience submission! This week, you sent in a ‘she said,’ which covers when friendships start to feel like a one-way street.
