Steph reads an excerpt from her teenage diary

KIC-COURT is in session! In a brand new segment, Steph & Laura take on your controversial questions. We kick things off with a story from Producer Lindsey who came with a story of a late appointment and she asked…is it rude to be late?  And Laura shares the small changes she’s making this year to make her life a little better including better diary planning, decluttering, meditating, reading and cutting down alcohol. Tell us in the Facebook group what changes you’ve made this year to make your life a little better.

The more control you have in your life, the more free you are. It may sound counter-intuitive, but it’s true, and in this episode Alexis tells us why. Alexis Fernandez is the host of the podcast Do You F*ing Mind, she has a Masters of Neuroscience, she's obsessed with the brain, and thankfully for us, she is REALLY good at explaining how it works. We wanted to speak with her about discipline and oh boy...did she blow our minds 🤯 In this episode, Alexis explains why discipline isn't something to be scared of and how it gives you more control and freedom to choose the life you want. Plus Alexis shares how she used discipline in her own life to get over a breakup, level up her career and transform her life.

Tell us you’re married without telling us you’re married. In a recent wardrobe clean out, Laura discovered an old drawer of sexy underwear (aka: barely there lace underwear that would give you thrush by looking at it) and realised she’s happy to never wear it again.

Then we open the KICMAIL Box and hear what you think of our book reccos, pelvic pain and break up stories, and how you’re smashing the Kic run program. And we introduce a new NICHE segment.

Kim was 27 weeks pregnant with her first daughter when she noticed a tiny amount of bleeding. After almost a week in hospital, and a traumatic birth experience, Kim gave birth to Elsie. Elsie then spent 11 weeks in the NICU and in that time, Kim and her husband Greg learned that Elsie had suffered a brain injury through pregnancy or birth and she was given a diagnosis of spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy. In this episode, Kim shares her story with Steph: her mostly straightforward pregnancy with Elsie, Elsie’s traumatic birth, their NICU stay and how it felt to finally hold Elsie for the first time, learning of Elsie’s brain injury, finding support online from parents of children with disabilities, and the decision to have a second baby. Thanks to Kic community member Kim for reaching out with her story. We hope her story helps other parents going through similar things feel less alone.
