Last week it happened. I finally met someone who knows more than Bri, is more patient than Bri, is quicker than Bri…and to make things even weirder, they both have an ‘i” in their name…
Sit back, and enjoy the show. This week, other than talking about Brian’s replacement, we discuss the dog peeing on the carpet (and what we are going to do about it), Liz lets go of a few facts about a country that Brian had NO idea about.
Liz reads another snippet from her soon-to-released book. PLUS! You (the listener) are offered an exclusive FREE never-seen-before bonus gift of Liz reading her first chapter to you in video. Listen to find out more, and then sign up HERE for your secret, exclusive video!
And FINALLY….
Liz reveals the TITLE of her soon-to-be-released BOOK! Woo HOO!!
Enjoy!

You’d think after practising for almost twenty-two years, me and Bri would have this parenting lark off to a tee by now.
But no. Once again, here we are asking if anyone else finds this tremendously-rewarding-but-hardy-pardy-pig-in-a-pokie-head-buttingly-difficult thing hard to navigate.
Blub, slurp, burp. Well? Do you?
We’ve had a right old weekend, me and Bri. What should have been a celebration ended up being a bit of a three-way counselling session. The only positive was there was lots of alcohol…
In this weeks show, we talk about the struggles and triumphs of being a parent to young adults, drinking far too much wine, and Liz reads the very first yet-to-be-heard introduction of her soon-to-released book. PLUS! you (the listener) are offered an exclusive FREE never-seen-before bonus gift of Liz reading her first chapter to you in video. Listen to find out more and then sign up HERE for your secret, exclusive video!
Enjoy!
PS: Don’t forget! If you would like to hear a podcast episode where Brian interviews Liz about the writing of this book, (struggles, ups, downs, inspiration etc.) Email Liz at [email protected] with “Talk about the book!” in the subject matter.
Thank you so much for your wonderful support.

Regular listeners to this show will already know all about my husband’s little problem. His closet obsession.
My husband, Brian, is what some might call a clean freak.
If you aren’t aware of what a clean freak is, fear not; you soon will.
In this week’s show, we talk about Brian’s inherited hindrance, rearing cattle and putting yourself out on social media when it terrifies the heebie-jeebies out of you…
Enjoy!

We need your help. Or at least one of us does.
As you may remember, Liz’s book is currently with the editor. The nice one with the blonde hair.
Last week the editor sent back the first two chapters. Full of edits. These edits were accompanied by an email that said, “these edits are suggestions. This is your book. You get to say what stays or goes”.
I told you she was nice.
The trouble is, there’s a problem. A big problem. Something that Liz never anticipated when she so cockily employed a professional editor…
Liz is a recovering people pleaser. Actually, that’s a lie. She hasn’t recovered yet. She’s still in the acceptance phase.
So our question to you, lovely listener, is this:
Does what I read out in this episode offend you? Is it too graphic? Or does this slightly sick-but-still-funny attempt at humour tickle you?
We would love to know. Email Liz at [email protected] or Brian at [email protected]
Thank you, and enjoy!!

Tessa is our daughter. She is 18. In two days’ time, she will leave me, Brian and her older brother (and the home where she grew up) to start a new life in Wellington, the capital city of New Zealand. Alone. Brian and I will officially be empty nesters.
Regular listeners to our podcast will know the effect this huge transition has had on us. Especially me. These past few months have been tough.
I always imagined that when the time came for my kids to leave home, I would be this super cool, open, liberal, go-with-the-flow parent. One who relished the opportunity of having the house to herself so she could indulge in some grown-up, mature stuff with her husband.
But no. The opposite is true (Sorry, Bri). I’m clinging to those apron strings so tightly that the poor girl can’t go to the bathroom without me trailing behind her…
In this week’s behind-the-scenes episode, you will be treated to something very rare. A one-to-one in-depth talk between me and my daughter. In it, she shares every thought going through her lovely head as she makes this big transition into adulthood. Enjoy.
PS: Enjoyed the show? Email me at [email protected] and let me know! I will pass any messages on to Tessa
