Steph & Laura have had a lot to catch up about lately, so today's episode is all about hearing the hilarious/interesting/unusual things that have happened in their lives.   Nothing’s off limits today - the girls cover topics like location sharing with your partner, mice infestations at home, and dumb things you once thought (like thinking knife point and gun point were actual locations). Steph also reveals she has watched her babysitter over the home cameras when they weren't aware!   SPECIAL SHARES: Steph – 1 Pot Zucchini Alfredo – KIC recipe Laura – No Filter with Mia Freedman, podcast episode with Johann Hari   KIC UPDATES:Tickets are now available for our KIC tour happening in October in Adelaide, Perth and Auckland NZ.

Last week Steph & her husband Josh revealed all of the very intimate and personal details of their relationship, so it's only fair that this week Laura and her husband Dalton are put in the hot seat! Of course they will address the 30 day intimacy challenge and whether they'll be taking part or not, and we also learn about what they have to sacrifice in their relationship, how they handle disagreements and what it's like both being CEOs of their companies. It wasn't meant to be a couples therapy session, but it sure turned out to be!

Sophie Walker is no stranger to talking about everything motherhood - she's the founder of Australian Birth Stories, a hugely successful podcast with over 8.6 million downloads to date. It's also a hub for women to learn, feel part of a community and engage with one another.   Rather than being the interviewer, this time she's sitting in the other seat! Steph invites Sophie to share what she has learnt in her time as a podcast host and health expert, and we find out how women can better their chances of having a positive birth experience.   KIC UPDATES:We have released some great budget-friendly and family-friendly recipes in the KIC app. Sign up now for a 14-day free trial.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

*WARNING* This ep may not be suitable for little ears (if you didn't already gather that from the title). You asked, Steph & Josh answered! You might have heard Steph mention a few episodes back (or seen it on socials... or seen it on news sites... seriously even the New York Post were writing about it) that she and her husband Josh were partaking in a 30 day intimacy challenge.. aka 30 days of sex! Well, the challenge has come to an end so it was time for Laura to put them in the hot seat and ask all of your juicy questions, like how they made time for it given they have a toddler, if it felt like a chore, what their parents said when they found out, if their sex life would be any different moving forward and so much more.

We thought Laura loved running… until we heard what Samantha Gash has taken part in! The endurance athlete and Survivor star was the first woman in the world and youngest person at the time to complete the Four Desert Grandslam – a series of 4 x 250km ultramarathons across 1 year in the world’s toughest climate deserts. She has also run 379km across Australia’s Simpson Desert, amongst many other incredibly challenging ultramarathons  – so it’s no wonder Sam was once the subject of a documentary called Desert Runners.   She is about to take part in another enormous feat, running 1600km from the West to the East of Nepal.   In today’s KICPOD episode, Steph & Laura find out how any of this is even humanly possible, and what kind of mindset you need to have to achieve such an incredibly massive goal. If you’re looking for motivation and want to get better at goal setting, this is the ep to listen to!   SPECIAL SHARES: Steph – Hairspray Musical Laura – About Time, Netflix film   KIC UPDATES: Our KIC Tour is happening in October in Adelaide, Perth and Auckland NZ! Grab your tickets now from kictour.com and let’s workout together, talk together and meet each other for the first time in years! The KIC Tour is in partnership with AIA Vitality and will be joined by Sarah Davidson.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Although every woman's pregnancy and birth story is different, one thing most mums can agree on is that a man will never truly understand what it's like to go through childbirth - and so for a lot of mums, this includes their partner.   Former AFLW player & Survivor star Moana Hope is in the unique position where she knows exactly what it's like from both perspectives! Her wife Isabella Carlstrom gave birth to their daughter Svea in 2020, then in June this year Moana gave birth to their son Ahi.   In this episode of KICBUMP, Moana not only shares her fascinating story of forming her beautiful family, but also generously tells her birth story for the first time.   KIC UPDATES KICBUMP will soon be branching off to be its own separate podcast. Be sure to follow/subscribe once it exits the KICPOD feed in a few weeks' time!   Try our KIC 14 day trial here.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
