Kolide Goss with Ella & Steph

In this episode, I’m unpacking the absolute chaos with husband Eddy Simpson trying to get a simple, clear answer about my galactocele. I went through multiple appointments, different diagnoses, clashing opinions, and weeks of stress before finally landing with a breast surgeon who gave me the clarity and direction I needed. No mum should have to navigate this in early postpartum — especially while dealing with the noise and judgement around formula feeding. I hope this helps even one person 🤍Kolide Advice Ella The Beast in Me - Netflix Loco Love Chocolate EddyBig Brother - Channel 10 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Kolide Goss, we sit down with our beautiful friend Elo, whose story is nothing short of extraordinary. Diagnosed with late stage 2 / early stage 3 breast cancer at just 33 — while 13 weeks pregnant — Elo began chemotherapy at 15 weeks and faced two types of breast cancer, including triple negative.What followed was a journey of strength and surrender: 16 rounds of chemo, the premature birth of her baby boy Max at 26 weeks, months in the NICU, another melanoma diagnosis, and finally, major surgery and radiotherapy — all within one year.Through it all, Elo’s resilience, humour and grace shine. She shares what it’s really like to navigate treatment while pregnant, life in NICU, recovery, motherhood, and finding perspective when everything changes.A story of bravery, love, and the power of a mother’s instinct — this is one you won’t forget. 💗Kolide Advice:Elo: This whole podcast Steph: Deiji studios online sale Murdaugh: Death in the family Ella: The Nader Sisters - Disney  Hosted on Acast.

We never thought we’d see the day that a doctor joined us on the pod, and to be honest, we couldn’t be more grateful to have Dr. Kieran McCaffrey with us. Having trained at Royal North Shore Hospital, Dr. McCaffrey is an obstetrician and gynaecologist. Fun fact: he is one of 11 children (10 boys, 1 girl). Yes, you heard that correctly. His dad is an OB, and two of his brothers are also doctors. Genius genes!We asked Dr. McCaffrey every question under the sun about pregnancy and birth, including (but not limited to): when to take your undies off (vitally important), how to limit interventions, managing mental health and migraines during pregnancy, forceps delivery, low-lying placenta, an en caul baby (yep, that’s French for "under the veil" for you non-bilingual folks), what a teratoma is, and everything in between.We hope you enjoy!Kolide Advice || Dr McCaffrey || Baby Bible + Hydra MamaElla || Watch VigilSteph || Drink / Eat || Lox in Box Matcha + Cookies  Hosted on Acast.
