Sam King and Jess Curtis don't profess to be experts on all things... but they do have some thoughts on the matter. Through years of friendship and hours of voice notes, they have covered just about every topic - from being neurospicy, being queer, social injustices, what could be the meaning of existence, to body image, why kids won't listen to us and nervous poos. They are people that share the small stuff and the big stuff. Through it all they carry a firm belief - through shared stories and shared connections we find healing. No rough drafts x Made on Kaurna Land.
In our second episode with Jimmy we talk about moral psychology... what is it, how Jimmy became interested in the subject and how it frames life for us now.

What started as an open, vulnerable chat about Sam's struggles she faces as an AuDHD person running her own business soon derailed into a chat about the ethics of AI, western politics, the climate crisis and a very desensitised version of existential dread (we're all gonna die anyway so.... whatever??)
Rambles, it's absolute rambles.
We chat with the incredible Lael Stone about a myriad of topics including:
- Leading a passion-led life: discovering what you love, finding people who have done it and learning from them - whilst not letting the "I can't"s get in the way
- Her incredible journey of opening a school that does it differently, Woodline Primary, and how she didn't let any "lack" of qualifications stop her
- Her thoughts on par...
Our guest this week is Jess's favourite person - her partner Jimmy!
We talk to Jimmy about his relationship with Jess, how they manage conflict and how they thrive together. Both sharing how self awareness, radical acceptance and unconditional positive regard help make this the best relationship both have ever been in.
Oh, and if you're not into mushy, gooey romantics - maybe skip this one... it's a lovefest!!
IHY Mentor & Bestie Tiff Cook from Roll With The Punches Podcast recently returned home after a soul changing experience in India .. we couldn't wait to get her back on for chit chats to hear all about it!
Sam + Jess
In the week leading up to Christmas, we need to debrief. Christmas and all the societal expectations have us tired. As two retired people-pleasers, we're trying a new tradition - to do less.
So what's important to us then, what's the minimum standard for Christmas? What actual brings joy around the holiday period?
Let's be honest guys, this is pretty much just a casual yap fest, but hey, y'all seem to enjoy it, so we'll keep giv...

We have one of our listeners (and dear friends) Katie join us on the pod for a vast and deep discussion about, life, trauma and healing. Katie talks about how she held everything in until a moment at work brought her crashing down into full blown PTSD.
We talk about how she went on to change her whole life, leave a marriage, come out, go to therapy, parent through the ch...

We adored our chat with Jacquie, and felt like we could have kept waffling on forever!
Jacquie is a Psychologist, Mum and now Published Author based in Sydney, Australia who works with children, adolescents and their families, with a special interest in supporting people who experience Sensory Processing Sensitivity, more commonly referred to as 'Highly Sensitive Kids/People'.
We learn about Jacqu...
We talk to Allira Potter - proud Yorta-Yorta woman, content creator, life coach, author, model, Instagram queen and all-around cool girl.
We chat influencer life, baby Allira dreams, her body kindness journey, dealing with trolls and joining the cult of running.
So many good topics, so little time!
Our young boys and men have inherited a sexist culture that harms girls and women. They didn't create it, they're not responsible for it, but they did inherit it, and they are responsible for and in control of what they do with it. They have a conscious choice to make. Will they continue to contribute to a culture that is unsafe for women, or will they commit to creating a culture that is safe for everyone?
In this episode we chat...
Vulnerable chats today with Sam and Jess - quite often we wait until after we feel resolved in an issue to talk about it so frankly in the public eye, but we're skipping over it today and processing while it's happening.
Uncertainty can be a big, scary feeling, especially when it's relating to one of life's foundations (jobs, money, health etc.). Jess talks about her job and money instability and insecurities and Sam helps lead t...
Hellllloooooo!
It's been a little while... We have had some BIG LIFE STUFF happening and it's been a lot. This is a little life update + some chats about how capitalism is bad. You know, the usual xx
We LOVED this chat with Mel Browne, ex Financial Planner turned Financial Educator who is committed to empowering females to start giving a serious fuck about our finances, helping us to create financial choice.
No one size fits all, 7 step, hussle hussle bro BS, Mel provides accessible, easily digestible and genuinely helpful educational content designed to meet you where you're at.
We talk money shame, vulnerability, fairy smut, ...
Fair warning - we've left in allllll of the utter nonsense of our normal conversations in. We lost count of how many times we lost our train of thought!
Yet somehow through it all, we end up having a rather robust conversation on self-awareness. How did we get there, how does it show up in our lives and tips on how to improve it...

Sam & Jess individually met Lena in Roxby Downs over 10yrs ago, and we were so excited to reunite for this epic pod floor chat. Lena now lives on a BOAT (from the desert to the ocean - talk about extremes!) and spends her time pushing herself through her limits emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually so that she can serve community through the embodiment of her work as an educator across a holistic range of human cent...
Sam shares her internal journey of cultivating self love through the development of self awareness. Calling out the problem in focusing on the external results (over 40kg of weight loss) as the focal point, cautious of contributing to body image issues caused by the 'before and after' process often perceived as 'good and bad', whilst acknowledging the power of using photos & imagery in bringing people into a con...
Ever see a human out in the wild and think "I reckon I'd be mates with that person if we got to know each other!"? Well, Sam did, and so she decided to reach out to Tiff and see whether she'd like to come chat on the pod in a live demonstration of 'making friends as adults', haha! Another experiment in giving ourselves permission to be our weird, awkward, authentic selves.
Tiff Cook is the host of Roll Wit...
Unconditional Positive Regard - well that’s a mouthful!
So what is it? And why does it matter?
It’s all about accepting and valuing someone, no matter what - totally up our alley.
Sam & Jess chat about what relationships feel like with and without it, unconditional positive regard vs unconditional love and how important it is to have a safe space to fall into.
Big loves and cuddles after this one x
Cheeky little mid-week ep, triggered by the media controversy surrounding Algerian boxer Imane Khelif.
READ: Imane is NOT the controversy, the behaviour of everyday humans vilifying her is.
WARNING: Lots of swearing, energy {rage} level eleventy-hundred.
Moral of this long winded, waffled on story: let's be kind.
When confronted with 'juicy news', can we learn to pause, get curious and seek more understanding before bl...
