If they talk like a gaslighter and walk like a gaslighter, they’re probably a gaslighter!
We’ve been watching MAFS and we want to talk about it. First - gaslighting. One of the grooms (Eliot) has been accused of gaslighting his partner, Lauren. We knew we had to bring in the big guns for this episode so we called friend of the podcast & relationship coach, Megan Luscombe, to find out more about what gaslighting is, how it might present in a relationship, and what to do about it. Then we discuss men’s desire for female partners who are siiiiiignificantly younger than them, regardless of their own age.

Is sleep training the answer? How Steph is planning for baby no.2 - KICBUMP with Dr Billy Garvey
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.
