One of Steph’s fave conversations from this year was on the Stellar podcast ‘Something To Talk About’ with Sarrah Le Marquand.

Today is International Day of Consent. To recognise the day, we sat down with Angelique Wan, Executive Director, Co-Founder & CEO of Consent Labs: an youth-led not-for-profit committed to ending sexual violence through preventative educational workshops delivered to young people, schools, educators, tertiary institutions, parents and carers about consent. We talk about initiating consent conversations with new & long term partners, what to do when consent is withdrawn, how consent applies to other areas of life outside of the bedroom, and great representations of consent in pop culture.  Check out Consent Labs https://www.consentlabs.org.au/  FOLLOW US Consent Labs @consentlabs on InstagramKICPOD @kicpod on InstagramJoin our closed KICPOD Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/630561419185145/Steph Claire Smith @stephclairesmith on Instagram & @steph_claire_smith on TikTokLaura Henshaw @laura.henshaw on Instagram & @laura.henshaw on TiktokKic @kic.app on Instagram & @kic on TikTok and kicapp.com or download the app from the App Store and Google Play StoreSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hannah Dower is a PhD student working with the Western Bulldogs AFLW club to investigate the impact of the menstrual cycle and contraceptive use on elite athlete performance. Hannah has a Bachelor in Sports Science, a Masters in Exercise Physiology and a 10-year career in strength and conditioning so she is EXTREMELY qualified to answer all our menstrual cycle and PMS questions! You might remember an episode from a few months ago where we shared about our experiences of PMS. We received so many messages from you guys saying you felt exactly the same so we decided to bring in an expert to explain everything about the menstrual cycle and PMS. We speak about what the menstrual cycle actually is, what is happening with our hormones at various stages of our cycle, the importance of tracking your cycle, the difference between PMS and PMDD, and if we should train differently at different stages of our cycles.  WE MENTIONED Hannah recommended the book ‘Blood: The science, medicine and mythology of menstruation by Dr Jennifer Gunter https://www.hachette.com.au/dr-jennifer-gunter/blood-the-science-medicine-and-mythology-of-menstruation  The episode in which we talked about our own PMS symptoms is called ‘Steph's one and only one night stand’ from July 2024.

We’ve seen some TikTok trends we’re not sure about and we want to talk about them. The first is the “morning trend” - where people sleep in a range of convoluted and questionable products on their face and in their hair only to “shed” it all in the morning. The second is “okra water” and its dubious health claims. Then we discuss a question we saw in Women’s Health Australia: “should I be offended if my partner doesn’t orgasm”?  Plus we put a poll on our Instagram story asking about the orgasm gap in your relationships and 5% of you said you orgasmed more, 38% of you said your partner orgasms more, 30% orgasm equally with your partner, and 27% just wanted to suss the results 👀 WE MENTIONED The okra water trend https://www.bodyandsoul.com.au/nutrition/healthy-food/okra-water/news-story/efb6382a91571792f5d295b31b6dabcc  The Women’s Health article https://womenshealth.com.au/my-partner-isnt-orgasming-should-i-be-offended/?

His third children’s book ‘Our Baby, Our Baby What Did You Say?’ reveals what toddlers can pick up in babies better than parents....which is a very convenient topic at the moment as Steph & Josh navigate how they tell their three-year-old Harvey that he’s getting a sibling! In this episode Steph, Josh & Dr Golly discuss the best way for parents to tell toddlers that they are having another baby, what kind of behaviour parents can expect of their toddlers during this time, dividing responsibilities between a newborn and a toddler, and the importance of toddlers retaining their sense of autonomy.

If you’re a long-term listener of KICPOD you’ll remember Producer Mandy! You might also remember that Mandy was producing the podcast when Laura opened up about her fear of not coping with kids, and Mandy said she felt exactly the same. Fast forward just over one year later and Mandy is now the proud mum of her first daughter, Lyla. In this episode we asked Mandy back in the studio to sit on the other side of the desk and share about how she went from being terrified of having kids to being so stoked to be a mum. We also touch on Mandy’s decision to have a planned cesarean and the judgment she anticipated and copped from the decision, her journey to becoming a mum, and her advice to anyone who is feeling overwhelmed by the decision. WE MENTIONED Mandy speaks in this episode about going to therapy to unpack her fears.

Tarang Chawla became an activist against men’s violence after his sister Nikita Chawla was murdered by her partner in 2015. We’ve been talking about violence against women a lot on the podcast this year (and every year) because unfortunately it’s an issue that’s not going away. In this episode we invite Tarang onto the podcast for the third time to talk about men’s violence, the impact of alcohol and gambling on violence, and what you can do as a bystander to safely stand up to street harassment.  Plus Laura shares about her experience witnessing and standing up to a group of drunk and aggressive young men at the AFL Grand Final and what Tarang would’ve done in the same situation.  WE MENTIONED The ‘Stand Up Against Street Harassment’ training https://www.standup-international.com/au/en/training/landing  The first time Tarang was on the podcast in ‘The Raw Reality of Domestic Abuse and Family Violence’ https://pod.fo/e/238cc6  The second time Tarang was on the podcast ‘A topic too many people avoid’ from December 2022 https://pod.fo/e/224092 FOLLOW US Tarang @tarangchawla on InstagramKICPOD @kicpod on InstagramJoin our closed KICPOD Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/630561419185145/Steph Claire Smith @stephclairesmith on Instagram & @steph_claire_smith on TikTokLaura Henshaw @laura.henshaw on Instagram & @laura.henshaw on TiktokKic @kic.app on Instagram & @kic on TikTok and kicapp.com or download the app from the App Store and Google Play StoreSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After a six year hiatus, the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show returned this year. The show was choreographed by an all-female team and featured greater cultural, age and body diversity than ever before, but the show still fell short in many ways. We have our say.

Dr Kavita Krishnan is a Lactation Specialist, member of the Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine, and a mum of three, so she’s had experience both first-hand and in practice teaching thousands of women how to breastfeed. 96% of women initiate breastfeeding but by 4 months fewer than 16% exclusively breastfeed and 83% of women stop breastfeeding earlier than they’d like. In this episode, Steph sits down with Kavita to discuss some of the reasons why women stop breastfeeding. Steph shares about her own experience breastfeeding Harvey, including nipple pain, low supply, and the early stages of mastitis and Kavita demonstrates the best position for a baby to latch with the help of a glass of water and a straw.
