It’s time for an honest catch-up as Bree and G unpack what’s really been going on — from surgery and recovery to grief, gym therapy, and family life in full swing.

Bree shares her hysterectomy recovery journey — the physical healing, emotional ups and downs, and the relief of no more heavy periods (hallelujah!). She opens up about learning to rest, tune into her body, and embrace this new season of womanhood.

Meanwhile, G gets real about navigating grief and overwhelm, and how moving her body has become her medicine. The gym has become her therapy — helping her feel stronger, calmer, and more grounded through life’s tougher moments.

And in some much-needed lighter news… both Bree and G actually enjoyed their family holidays this time! The secret? Going away with other families. Built-in entertainment for the kids, adult conversation for the parents, and a reminder that sometimes the right company is what makes all the difference.

Expect laughs, honesty, and plenty of “same here” moments that remind you that whatever season you’re in — you’re not doing it alone.

• G’s mental health journey — facing grief and overwhelm, and how fitness has become her therapy
