  2. Surrendering to imperfection

    13 DEC

    Surrendering to imperfection

    In this episode of Untidy, Matty and Hannah go off-script and ditch the plan for the episode to talk about what’s really on their minds — the beautiful chaos of life served with a side of emotional vulnerability and an unavoidable sprinkle of self-care. Hannah shares she’s losing her battle with COVID, operating with mashed potato for a brain and finding no choice but to surrender to the slow lane. Matty opens up about a parenting fail that morning that left her feeling particularly low. They talk about the art of repair after rupture and why it’s not always on your time schedule. There’s chat about the pressures of productivity, how to give yourself grace, and how to give yourself permission to lie in the sun with a good book (even if your bathroom remains borderline condemned while you do it). Untidy is celebrating some big wins: a Gold for Best Family Podcast and Silver for Best Branded Podcast at the NZ Podcast Awards! A massive thank you to all of you for your love and support—it means the world to us. Grab your ice cream (you’ll understand why!) and listen in for a good, slightly unhinged kōrero about life’s less-than-perfect moments.

    The evolution of partnership with Jay-Jay & Dom

    In this episode of Untidy, Hannah and Matty chat with two legends of New Zealand broadcasting, Jay-Jay Feeney and Dom Harvey. Well-known for their work together on The Edge Breakfast Show, Jay-Jay and Dom have shared an extraordinary journey that has seen them transition from romantic partners to business partners, redefining what it means to evolve a partnership. From their new podcast studio, PodLab, Matty and Hannah turn the questions on these two seasoned interviewers to talk about how they managed mixing their personal and professional lives, deal with public scrutiny and entitlement, the evolution of their relationship through separation, navigating friendship dynamics with new partners, and embarking on a new business venture together.  Jay-Jay and Dom share openly and candidly about their relationship over the years and how it has transformed to support their personal and mutual evolution, calling into question what a successful relationship really looks like.  Check out their joint venture, @podlabnz and follow @jjfeeneynz and @domharveynz.

    Bralessness, caravan cravings, and toilet cubicle psychology

    In this episode of Untidy, Matty and Hannah discuss Matilda’s chaotic trip to the public pool. As if swimming in the lukewarm piss of child minestrone soup wasn’t enough, Matty discovers she’s inadvertently decided to become bold and braless.  Hannah’s absolutely not resisting her cravings to own a vintage caravan and grimly realises she’s been asking prospective dates for the bare minimum, which they’re still unable to deliver.  The girls discuss toilet cubicle psychology, irrational fears, and why, under the right circumstances, you’re all for strangers’ hands tickling your ankles. The mystery of The Bermuda Triangle is conclusively solved! (Sort of.) And, Matilda stays wild and free by preparing her body for the Coldplay concert six weeks advance.  Episode we mention:Perimenopause Handbook with Emily Rose Yates If you enjoy this episode of Untidy, please support the show by subscribing in your podcast app and tapping the ‘+ follow’ button.

    Creating critical thinkers with Kate Whitaker

    In this episode of Untidy, Matty and Hannah are joined by Kate Whitaker, Senior Advisor at Te Mana Whakaatu Classification Office for New Zealand and an expert in education and outreach. She has over a decade of classroom teaching and facilitation experience under her belt and is driven to enhance the lives of New Zealanders through practical resources for whānau and teachers, helping them to have open kōrero about challenging topics like harmful media and pornography. Kate’s work focuses on empowering youth, caregivers, and educators to build critical media literacy skills and break down the stigma surrounding these conversations. She shares actionable strategies to help parents feel equipped to guide their children through today’s media landscape, encouraging resilience and critical thinking rather than fear of what can feel like a daunting prospect in this modern era of parenting.  This episode delves into the importance of moving away from ‘moral panic’ and toward proactive, meaningful discussions and teaching self-management skills to tamariki and rangatahi youth. Kate highlights the tools available to New Zealanders for addressing these issues with confidence, offering insights into the role we all play in creating a safer, more understanding environment for young people.

    The Bermuda Triangle used to be an issue

    In this episode of Untidy, Matty, Hannah and Producer Flick catch up for a chaotic chat that journeys from the poetry corner to bake sale avoidance, school notice overwhelm, grapefruit utilisation, the weirdest gifts, office party fails, and elaborate plans for their own novelty deaths.  As the vortex towards the end of the year intensifies, the girls consider the topical issues ... like why no one talks about The Bermuda Triangle anymore ... Will their sanity extend into 2025? No one is sure, but, stick around and see what unravels next.  Links to the poems read in this episode: ‘Phenomenal Woman’ by Maya Angelou ‘The Orange’ by Wendy Cope We need you!

    The perimenopause handbook with Emily Rose Yates

    In this episode of Untidy, hosts, Matilda Green and Hannah Davison respond to the call of swathes of hot, brain-fogged, enraged, peri-menopausal women who are feeling frustrated, ignored, dismissed and sometimes a bit depressed about the difficulty they’re having getting clear information and proper support with their symptoms of peri-menopause. They unpack the complexities of perimenopause and holistic health with naturopath Emily Rose Yates.  Emily Rose Yates is a highly respected naturopath with a Bachelor of Health Sciences in Naturopathy, alongside advanced diplomas in herbal medicine, nutrition, and homeopathy. Practising since 2007, Emily has dedicated her career to women’s health, specialising in women’s hormones and perimenopause. She is passionate about empowering women with tools to navigate health challenges holistically and aims to bridge the gap between natural health practices and traditional medical care with her evidence-based approach. Emily is also a mother of three and an advocate for supporting mothers and families to thrive. Emily shares her insights into how perimenopause affects both physical and mental well-being. She discusses the many symptoms and complaints women can experience, and explains how hormone fluctuations contribute to these challenges. Emphasising a holistic approach, Emily advises on the importance of balanced nutrition, specific supplements, and supportive lifestyle changes that can aid in navigating this life stage.
