Today we have Jo Robertson on the podcast. Jo is a qualified sex therapist with a master's in medicine and nearly 20 years in sexual health, child development, and trauma. She came on to talk about one of the most urgent questions we hear from parents in our community: how do we protect our kids online?

This was one of our most eye-opening conversations. A 65% surge in under-age gaming since 2021, the insane increase in children creating sexual content of themselves (seven to ten year olds), how online grooming actually works and why the "not my kid" belief is a myth, and the four immediate things any parent can do right now.

Jo also shares her own experience raising three boys with strict screen rules, how she handles the "but all my friends have phones" conversation without backing down, and the exact age-by-age roadmap for talking to your kids about bodies, consent, porn, and the internet - including why eight is the right age to explain sex, and ten is the right age to talk about porn.

New episodes out every second Thursday.

When life gets full, food motivation slides fast and it's a slippery slope. One skipped breakfast becomes a 3pm crash becomes whatever's closest at dinner. We get it, because we're time poor too.

This week we're sharing exactly how we plan our weeks in just 15 minutes. Our Intelligently Lazy System keeps us fuelled, saves us money, and means we never have to stand in front of the fridge at 6pm with absolutely no idea what to make.

No aspirational 47-step meal plan here. Just a few achievable, smart decisions you only have to make once, so you stop making them every single day.

We're never going to get any less busy… so this might just be the push you needed.

This one is such a good conversation. Amanda co-founded Wilson & Dorsett, Lisa came on as CEO, and these two are full of life and the spitting image of what we are like but in best friend form. We cover so much good stuff in this episode:

• The frameworks they set up early to protect the friendship
• What actually happens when they disagree
• How two completely different working styles can complement each other
• What flexibility really looks like inside a growing business
• Burnout, sprinting, falling in a heap, and learning to be okay with that in business
• Why comparison is a thief of joy, in business and in life
