    Men in the Modern World: Joanna & Craig Discuss Fatherhood, Identity & Mental Health

    In this episode Craig is back to discuss what it means to be a man in today’s world. He shares his journey as a father raising a daughter, the role community and sport (jujitsu and five-a-side football) play in his mental health, and the challenges men face as gender roles continue to shift. We ask the difficult questions:- Where do men stand now that traditional roles have changed?- Are men truly supported in their mental health?- How do fatherhood, friendships, and community shape modern masculinity? This is an open, honest discussion about identity, balance, and belonging - and why men might feel “lost” in 2025. 👉 Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe to the channel for more episodes.

    Loving Work, Missing Kids & Finding My Pink: Joanna & Catie discuss Mom Guilt

    In this episode, Catie is back to share her experience with a side of mom guilt that doesn’t get talked about enough - the guilt of loving your career. After having two children and preparing to return to work, she’s realized that part of her is excited. She misses her job, enjoys working, and thrives in her professional life. But with that joy comes guilt - guilt for looking forward to adult conversations, coffee in peace, and feeling like herself again. We explore the complex emotions that come with being a mother who also loves her career, why that’s okay, and how she's reconnecting with herself in the process - finding her pink in the middle of motherhood and ambition. This one’s for anyone who’s ever felt torn between love for their children and love for their work - and needed to hear that both can exist side by side. Put the kettle on and join us for an honest, permission-giving chat about real life, real identity, and letting go of the pressure to be everything, all at once.  #MomGuilt #WorkingMum #CareerAndMotherhood #FindingMyPink #SoItsNotJustMe #PodcastForMothers #MentalHealthForMums #ReturningToWork #WorkingMomTruths #HonestMotherhood #RealTalkPodcast #SelfCompassion #WomenWhoWork #GuiltFreeMotherhood #IdentityAfterKids

    Life's a DRAG, become a QUEEN! Joanna and Ken discuss it all!

    In this week’s episode, we're chatting with the fabulous Ken Lambert, who takes us behind the scenes of his journey into the world of drag—from discovering his love for performing, to creating a fierce persona that lets him shine in every sense of the word. He spills the tea on what it's like to run a local gay bar, the highs and lows of owning your identity, and how stepping into heels helped him step into his power. We talk relationships, chosen family, and the not-so-glam side of dealing with hate and stigma—and how he handles it all with grace and a good sense of humor. Oh, and we’re not forgetting our history queens either! We’re shouting out William Dorsey Swann, the first known drag queen (yes, way back in the 1800s!), and UK legend Lily Savage, who brought sparkle and sass to the stage long before RuPaul hit our screens. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like behind the wig and lashes—or just need a reminder that being your true self is more than enough—this one’s for you. 💖 🎧 Tune in now and remember: you’re not alone, and it’s okay to take up space like the glittery badass you are. 👑 #DragQueen #DragLife #ServingRealness #LGBTQStories #MentalHealthChat #ChosenFamilyFeels #DragIsHealing #WilliamDorseySwann #DannyLaRue #SoItsNotJustMe #DragCommunity #BeExtra #QueerVoices #SupportLocalDrag #SafeSpaces #DragIsArt #GlitterAndGrit #AuthenticAF #DragPodcast #SlayAllDay
