BONUS with Kirsty G: sexy undies, the move to Sydney, running recap, ex girlfriend tales & more
Hello! We have had many requests for team appearances on the podcast and tonight we deliver. Many of you will know Kirst and possibly workout with her every week. You may subsequently have watched from a distance as she and her family uplifted their lives in Auckland and relocated to Sydney earlier this year. You had questions (and so do we)! So in today's bonus episode, we sit down to talk to Kirst about all sorts - mostly about life in Australia and the details of the move, but also the usual waffle you've come to expect - initiating and lingerie, her running skills (that are super f**king annoying), with a recap of the half marathon she completed on Sunday, stories of Pippa the cat, struggles that come with kids and more. We've known Kirst for many years since she first moved from South Africa to NZ as a young girl and we are so blessed to have her in our lives. If you haven't worked out with Kirst yet, you'll find her on our LIVE timetable every week on a Wednesday (HIIT) and Saturday (Hybrid35). Love you KK Gordy.

Singapore sling swing, school smarts, sex club, The Biggest Loser, Ozempic and red flags
Sorry, mum. Admittedly the first part of this is quite shambolic. We've figured it out though. Leece asks the questions that Jess doesn't reeeeally have the answers to, and so what then happens is you listen to inaccurate information (LOL). We do our best don't we and as we say, we play to our strengths. Chatting WAFFLE is one of them - perhaps less so is chatting actual FACTS. On conclusion of the episode we establish that our thoughts are not in fact, facts, and I mean, that certainly sums it up. From Sinagpore to Bali and some disgraceful geographical knowledge, to schooling woes, erotic literature, The Biggest Loser, Serena Williams and Ricky Gervais - we've hit the waffle train hard today and eventually conclude that collectively, we're one Big Giant Red Flag. Sorry about that - we hope you'll stick around.

Phone addicts, life is hard, the Disney rort, Taylor Swift & deep heat in the vag
Hello pals! A little here, there and everywhere today. To begin todays episode Leece reads out a DM about the podcast - honestly feedback just means so much to us (not just positive feedback either we promise lol). It's SO cool to hear from our listeners and know how much you enjoy tuning in each week, so thank you. As we discuss, the podcast has evolved somewhat in the last 18 months and although it's changed, you're still here and in fact more and more of you are here with every passing week. We're so grateful. Today we flit and float between phone addiction and phone habits, life being hard and how we cope, boyfriends past, a long-winded Disney on Ice tale, Taylor Swift mania and deep heat in the vaginal area. We hope you enjoy the catch up. Therepeutic for us - hoping not too dissimilar for you? All our love xo

Coffee (lol), epiphanies, and *just getting started* with exercise
Hello friends, your top 5, chart topping health and fitness podcast is back for another week (lol). The Sparkle Pod, a hugely informative resource across the essential and key current affairs, such as, the only (right) way to have your coffee. delayed onset of muscle soreness (DOMs) and how to get your a into g when it comes to exercise (spoiler - there is no easy answer). Jokes aside, we received a lovely email from a long-standing member who isn't regularly exercising. The enquiry prompted us to open up the chat about getting started with regular exercise. We hope our answer - though direct and potentially hard to hear - could inspire you. We say it gently; you are worth looking after and regular exercise is pretty essential to your health. On this, you're welcome to DM us anytime if you think we can help you at all. What else do we talk about today? Sore muscles, breakfast and coffee etiquette, laser eye surgery, Tom Dick & Harry, and a few book/show recommendations. Time flies when you're having fun (and your lives are perfect).

Life is PERFECT! (this is sarcastic... or is it?)
Hello! We're trying something a little different today and in doing so, manifest a perfect life lol. We feel we've done nothing other than moan on here of late so made an off the cuff effort to flip the script - we think we did a pretty good job! In today's episode we mull over a bit of everything - for a start about our lives being *perfect*, then onto coffee and all its conundrums, until Jess poses a question on teacher etiquette. This leads into some more chat around our kids and current tribulations, perspective when it comes to finding life hard, Dans health and alcohol when it comes to our teens. We finish with some praise to the MIM team because #greatmems, and a little bit of book chat. Thanks so much for your DMs and messages, whether off the back of the podcast, workouts or whatever - we love it and value it so much. Thanks for being here.
