This week it’s all about sleep! With baby number two on the way, Steph has been thinking about how she’ll approach sleep this time around and if she & Josh will use the same techniques as they used with Harvey.

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.
