In this episode of Let’s Be Real, I’m joined again by my sisters Amy and Tammy Hembrow for a very honest conversation about love, relationships, dating, and how social media has completely changed the way we connect with each other. We chat about everything from meeting people online versus in real life, the pressure of sharing relationships online, and whether social media has made it harder to trust in modern relationships. Tammy opens up about lessons she’s learned from past relationships, rebuilding trust, recognising red flags, and understanding the difference between love, lust, and being love-bombed. Plus, we share our biggest relationship red flags and green flags, what we look for in a partner, and the lessons we’ve learned as we’ve grown older. This one is a real sister chat — honest, uncensored, and full of conversations about love, heartbreak, growth, and what makes a relationship truly work. This episode also wraps up Season One of Let's Be Real. We'll take a quick break but return with Season Two!

On this episode of Let's Be Real, I'm sitting down with one of Australia's OG fitness queens - the one and only Kayla Itsines. Kayla talks about her journey from training women in a small gym to building one of the world’s biggest fitness communities, creating the iconic BBG program and navigating the highs and lows of building a global business. She also shares the lessons she learned from selling her company, how success is more than just money, and realising that 'having it all' looks different for everyone. Kayla also opens up about her experience with endometriosis, pregnancy loss, anxiety during pregnancy, and the emotional journey of becoming a mum. She also speaks openly about the pressure women feel around pregnancy, their bodies and to 'bounce back' after giving birth. In a truly emotional moment, Kayla also reveals why she blocked me online - and I have to say, I can't blame her. This episode is a rollercoaster, but I hope you enjoy it.

In this episode, I'm chatting with model, TV presenter, mum and entrepreneur Rachael Finch. You might remember Rachael as Miss Universe Australia in 2009, or from her appearances on Dancing With The Stars, Celebrity MasterChef or Sunrise. Now she runs a wellness business and cafe with husband Michael. This is an an honest conversation about motherhood, wellness, body image, business, and what it really means to create a balanced life. Rachael opens up about her journey from the pressures of the modelling industry to finding a healthier relationship with food, fitness, and herself. She shares the lessons she’s learned around feeling healthy versus simply looking healthy, the importance of longevity, and why consistency will always matter more than quick fixes. We also delve into the realities of modern motherhood — from mum guilt and raising confident kids, to navigating social media judgement and staying grounded in your own values. Rachael also shares how meditation and mindfulness have transformed the way she manages the demands of parenting, running businesses, and showing up for herself. From her move from Sydney to the Gold Coast, to redefining success beyond external validation, Rachael shares the mindset shifts that have helped her create a life centred around health, connection, purpose, and presence.
