The Shift In Identity After Having A Baby. Uncut with Holly Nicholson

The Shift In Identity After Having A Baby. Uncut with Holly Nicholson

Quite a while ago now we put a call out for who you’d like to hear on the podcast and the name that came through the MOST was the woman sitting in front of us Holly Kingston/Nicholson!
We initially got to know Holly when she found love with Jimmy on the bachelor and they’ve gone on to get married and break the bachelor girl baby spell with their son Lenny!

“Once you have a baby, your relationship will never be the same” seems to be a tale told to a lot of expecting mums. And it’s true, but there are a few parts left out of that narrative. Holly and Laura ran into each other not long before Holly had Lenny and she told her ‘no one tells you how much fun it’s going to be’.

We speak about:

  • Life before bach
  • How her and Jimmy decided to pivot careers
  • What the first year of their relationship was like
  • Maintaining friendships after the bachelor
  • Their challenging pregnancy journey
  • Being both very grateful that you’re pregnant but really not liking pregnancy
  • What the baby blues can feel like
  • The counter narrative of motherhood being all doom and gloom
  • The shift in identity that becoming a mum gives you
  • How their relationship has changed since becoming parents

ASK UNCUT -  You can't resuscitate a dead starfish

ASK UNCUT - You can't resuscitate a dead starfish

Hello Lifer, it's therapy Thursday where we answer all your deep dark and burning questions.BUT FIRST! Is the Bachelor doneski for good? It has been announced that the recent series that was shot with three Bachelors is being rested until next year, and well.... we have some feelings.Then we get into your questions and this week we have some goodies! I've just gotten back into the dating game, went on a date and he was truly great! When we got back to my house, the sex was super disappointing. We did it again in the morning (sober) and it was just as bad... My question is can you teach someone to be good at sex and is the effort worth it? Last night while having sex, the guy I've been dating whispered in my ear "my chubby, little whore." I'm not kink shaming him, but I was offended by what he said and I don't know how to talk about it with him I caught a glimpse of a snapchat conversation that my brother in law of 20 years was having with someone that is not my sister. I THINK I saw it come through from the other person and it said "I love you." I'm not sure what to do, as I'm not entirely sure what I saw... If you're a cheeky peach and want to get yourself a copy of our book WE LOVE LOVE - Jump on our website here www.lifeuncutpodcast.com.au it is hitting the shelves on Wednesday 5th and we don't want you to miss it!If you loved the episode, you know the drill - Tell your mum, tell your dad, tell your dog, tell your friends and share the love... because....

Boss better have my money! Pay rise and pay gaps with Meggie Palmer

Hey Lifers!We kick off today's ep by telling you about all of the penis straw profanities of Britt's sister's hens party! The girls well and truly let their hair down. We then (somehow) chat about who is and isn't good in a break in an emergency, and spoiler but it's not Laura!Next up we take a bit of a deep dive on how we view cheating and do a bit of a litmus test of where our internal bias is. Do we think cheating while the woman is pregnant is more deplorable than when they're not pregnant? Then we jump into the wonderful Meggie Palmer to chat about all things gender pay gap and how to get a raise. We talk about:-what the pay gap is-why there is a pay gap between men and women in Aus-pay secrecy clauses and whether you can discuss salaries with colleagues-how to actually get a raise at workYou can check out the challenge that Peptalkher has here: PepTalkHer.com/challengeAnd download the app whereever you usually get your apps from!If you loved the ep, flick us a review on apple pods or a star rating on spotify and you know the drill!Tell your mum, tell your dad, tell your dog, tell your friend and share the love because we love love!!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

ASK UNCUT - Prudes, fertility and no you can't have a plus one

ASK UNCUT - Prudes, fertility and no you can't have a plus one

Hey lifers,Welcome to your therapy Thursday where you hear about everyone else's dilemmas that will surely make you feel as though your own life isn't as much of a shit show.The questions that we're diving into today are:I've just gotten back into the dating game and have been on a few first dates. I'm having a lot of fun. However, I'm starting to feel a bit stressed about seeing multiple people at the same time and being judged by people around me. Is there such a thing as dating too many people at the same time?My new girlfriend has conservative, 'no sex before marriage' parents, but she herself doesn't have the same beliefs. We are going on a trip in a few weeks and her parents want us to stay in different rooms while we are there. I haven't met her parents yet but my girlfriend wants me to lie to her parents when I meet them and say that we always sleep separately. To what degree should I uphold her lie? At what point should she have a conversation about differing values with her parents?I have just found out that I have fertility issues. I have endo and tried to freeze my eggs but it didn't work. I'm single and I'm wondering when to tell guys that I date? I don't want to freak them out but also don't want to leave it too long. It's been really hard for me to think about so I just haven't been dating at all.My step sister has been given a plus 1 to our wedding as she's dating someone that we've both met. My parent's now want my step brother to have a plus 1 even though he's not seeing anyone. We are having a very small wedding with 53 people and have already cut friends from the list that we would have liked to be there. Do you think my parents have the right to demand this? They are contributing some money to the wedding, but had them choosing the guest list been a term/condition, we wouldn't have accepted the money.If you've got a spicy question you'd love answered, send it on in to lifeuncutpodcast on instagram!If you are looking for more information - where to buy merch, tickets to our live show or to pre order the book 'We Love Love,' visit our website here If you loved the episode, you know the drill - Tell your mum, tell your dad, tell your dog, tell your friends and share the love... because....
