Megan Luscombe has coached individuals and couples in relationships and business for over 12 years and she is our go-to for any relationship question! If 2025 is the year you want to prioritise your relationship…we made this episode for you. This week we ask Megan all the questions that we know come up at this time of year when we’re thinking about our relationships: how should I feel, how do I start a big conversation, how often should I do a relationship check-in & what should I ask, should we have the same values, should I give my partner an ultimatum if I’m not getting what I want, and why setting a goal for a weekly date night might not be the answer.

This week we share the things that we want to do more of in 2025 and the things we’re better off leaving in 2024.  Plus we speak with body confidence coach and Kic trainer Sami Rose about body image in the new year. Every day Sami works with clients to improve the relationship they have with their bodies and so we wanted to know what she's hearing from women in the new year and how she works with clients who want to change their bodies.  WE MENTIONED Sami has been on the KICPOD before. Her episode is called ‘Breaking the cycle of binge eating & bettering your mindset, with Sami Rose’ from May 2023 and you can listen here https://pod.fo/e/238cb2  Sami's 28-day 'Befriending Your Body' project starts on Monday February 3rd.

This week we catch up on what we got up to over the holidays, including two weeks in a house filled with 14 people (Steph) and exploring the Victorian coastline (Laura).

In this insightful discussion, Liv Morrison, an accredited clinical dietitian and Kic’s in-house nutrition expert, debunks the myths surrounding fad diets. She emphasizes the importance of adopting an 'add to' mindset for sustainable eating and maintaining digestive health through dietary variety. Liv also explores how macronutrient balance fuels energy and supports a healthier relationship with food. The conversation encourages flavorful, diverse eating while challenging restrictive norms, making healthy choices feel enjoyable rather than depriving.
