38: Hannah's Personal Dance With Anxious Thoughts
Anxiety, what does it mean to you? Have you personally suffered from its crippling grip at times? Do you know someone who experiences it? Perhaps a friend, a parent, a sibling, a loved one. Does it show up when you least expect it, and how do you manage it? In this episode we do a deep dive into Hannah's lived experience with anxious thoughts, including: when it began and how it looks and feels for her how she finally recognised what the feelings were Hannah reading a diary entry, sharing the real, raw and honest truths that she feels when anxious thoughts are heightened what she needs from others when feeling this way phrases that are super helpful the style of exercise that aids in minimising the feelings (and what exacerbates it!) how it affects our friendship Rach's experience with anxiety why teaching as a profession fit well in managing anxious thoughts for Hannah. We mention Ready or Not Podcast in this episode, specifically: And, Claire Bowditch, and her incredible book about managing her demonising thoughts. Thanks for being here Hotties.

24: It’s The 20 Year School Reunion: Reflecting On Han’s Rebellious School Years
So, we won't lie, once upon a time we thought people who were 20 years on from school, were somewhat of a dinosaur. Yet here we are living proof that we're still spring chickens...right? With Hannah's upcoming 20 year school reunion, it has us turning back the clock to reflect on Han's school journey. Those formative years. What she was like, what her friendships looked like, how she behaved in the classroom...or didn't behave and why she was led to become a teacher herself. In this episode, we cover it all, and we invite you to step back in time and reminise on your schooling days. In Hannah's final voicenote, we get a fairly detailed report of how she went at her school reunion, so listen out for that one! With Christmas upon us, this is our final episode together (just the two of us) before a little something special comes your way over the summer period.

Who said manifesting has to be fancy? Pop down to your local bunnings, grab a snag or a veggie burger, and on your way out, jot down some notes on your future dreams, aspirations and love life in the carpark, and call it a day. Or like us, at your local pub, while the birds have a poop in your wine. In today's episode we go back in time and revisit that time we were both single, and looking for love. We wrote down all of our hopes, dreams and wishes that we'd find in a future partner, and jotted them down on a bunnings reciept. We have a chat about the "person" we were looking for, and does it look like the person we have today. Funnily enough, it's fairly spot on! So hotties, this is your reminder, manifestation doesn't have to be well thought out, planned or even fancy, it can be casual, relaxed and fun.

Sick of changing nappies & a full bin? Want to have more money in your pocket? Want to empower your children? No more nappies means the beginning of potty independence and more money in your pocket. Giving your baby the opportunity to use the potty is a bonding experience, empowering your child and a closer step to never needing to change a nappy ever again! Hannah chats all about her families journey to potty independence through EC, regressions, helpful language, commitment and learning. Andrea Olsen from Go Diaper Free was the catalyst to Hannah's passion and desire while pregnant to get her babies straight onto the potty during the newborn phase. Would you want to go to the toilet in your pants? Neither does a baby, so let's chat. Let's chat EC, tiny undies, toilet training, night time potty, societies beliefs, nappy companies benefits, sign language, helpful resources and even Hannah's potty song.

19: What We REALLY Think About Parenting
Hotties, is it just us, or do you also wonder if there will ever be a day when we can leave the house and not have to watch the clock and hurry home to our children? Who knew parenting would be so TRIGGERING! These gorgeous, squishy, innocent, kind, funny little people...could push so many buttons. Parenting really pushes you to your limits, and in this episode we openly discuss our thoughts on what we REALLY think about it all. Have you ever felt guilt for sending your children to daycare, or felt guilty after raising your voice? Do you wish you were more like what you *picture* the perfect parent to be? Us too! This parenting job is hard, no if's and buts about it. It's monotonous, it's day in day out and this chat felt like a breath of fresh air to be reminded, that we are not in this alone. These thoughts are normal and one day, there will be time and space within our lives where we won't be watching the clock, nor needed at home. Please, if you haven't already, follow, rate and review.

18: Overwhelm & Anxiety; Can Our Podcast Survive?
In this day and age it's fair to say everyone experiences anxiety to varying degrees, what we delve into today is how anxiety makes us feel, the feelings that have been coming up for us with creating our podcast, and the lack of time. We chat about how open communication really may be a key factor in welcoming some calm, along with needing to feel like we have a semblance of control within our life, and that life isn't just happening to us. We touch on when big decisions and the thought of the unknown can feel huge, and sometimes when everything feels too much we can almost be left in this state of paralysis. We discuss how Rach & Han both have very different coping skills and touch on what it can look like for us when we are trying to dig ourselves out of an overhwleming spot within our lives. This was a chat relavent to where we are right now, and in time we would love to explore further what living with anxiety can look like for some over the longterm, day in day out, and not just a fleeting thing that comes up from time to time. Thank you for being here, and as always, find those hot minutes where you can Hotties. Please, if you haven't already, follow, rate and review.

17: Living With An Eating Disorder
Hello dear Hotties! This week Rach generously and openly shares her experience with something she kept hidden from those closest to her for many many years. This raw and vulnerable chat, exudes honesty and a real insight into how it felt to live with Bulimia. Rachael dives into the lowest points in her life, how her brain responded to certain situations, where it began, her feelings in amongst her colleagues and friends and how it felt when it was no longer a secret amongst those closest with her. She speaks about how she climbed out the other side with the help she received, both professionally and through those that were closest to her. This is the very first time that Han and Rach have spoken about Rach's journey with Bulimia. Hannah asks all the questions that she has wondered about for years. This week's chat ended with the biggest of hugs. Rachael is brave sharing her experience in the hope that it will reach someone who needs it most. We have no doubt you will share this with anyone that needs to hear it. TRIGGER WARNING/HELP: If you or someone you know need support, or want support to help someone you know, you can contact The Butterfly Foundation on 1800 ED HOPE (1800 33 4673).

16: Homebirths, Birth Pools, Private Midwives & Hospitals… We’ve Done Them All!
Hotties, come for the ride of pregnancy and birth with us! Hannah and Rachael not only share Birkenstocks, clothes, food and some quirks, but we shared the same midwife and both had a homebirth! Today we dive right into the journey we had in both of our pregnancies and the lessons we learnt from our first births in order to shape our second births. We went through Mamatoto Midwives and both shared Juliana as our private midwife (not at the same time!). Today we talk about what that journey is like; the decision to have either a hospital or homebirth, the continuity of care, the ongoing support both mentally and physically, the after care in our homes and the birthing debrief that was so needed. We rave about Mamatoto Midwives and their mother-like care in this special period of our lives. One of us share how they birthed their child themselves at home and we both reflect openly about our first birth experiences becoming quite traumatic. We both made decisions moving forward to empower ourselves and not let that happen second time around. It is a personal one, but we are confident you will enjoy the chat. Please, if you haven't already, follow, rate and review. We are excited to get into more ears and hearts and this really helps.

15: Hello Postpartum Body...Let's Get To Know One Another!
Strap yourself in for this one Hotties; whether you have been pregnant, birthed a child, been a sporty person, hit the gym or looked closely at your body in the mirror you will be able to relate to this one. It is a lot to navigate... you fall pregnant, you honour your changes within your body, you birth and then you are back to you again, right? Absolutely not (for most)! In today's chat, we dive into all of the feels around our post pregnancy bodies. We share the joy we have felt through the process of pregnancy, and the massive miscommunication between our brain and body that we have felt postpartum. Not spoken to enough is our pelvic floor after pregnancy and birth; we go there! The mind and body connection is explored today as well as how we now feel sexually. What we will say is that we know the human body is incredible. This episode is not about disrespecting our bodies. We fully respect our bodies, more so since having children. We have found a new appreciation for what our bodies can do, where our bodies are at and we are a lot more loving towards our vessel. The change is however, a lot to navigate. Come with us for this chat and get in touch if this episode spoke to you. Please follow, rate and review. We are excited to get into more ears and hearts and this really helps.

Today we answer a fun question where we share our quirks; the perculiar traits that make us who we are today that form us, our behaviour. We learnt things about each other today. One of us doesn't like dry feet or hands, one of us needs things to be tight to feel secure and both of us have no filter on stopping with our pizza ingredients. Tune in to find out more of our quirks. Please share with us some of your quirks and let us know that we are not alone with some that we mention today.

13: Is It Time For A TV Detox?
Welcome back to A Hot Minute With Us. We are so glad you are here. Today we dive into Rach's experiment with turning that black box on the wall off; the TV. She chats about how it has impacted her parenting, her family dynamic and what opportunities it has now opened. The outcome has been incredibly positive for many reasons. We chat about what has been lost since TV's have come into our lives; more so paid TV where we can choose whatever we want to watch whenever we want. This is at a cost of human connection. Hannah shares what it is like to live without a TV by choice. It has been over 5 years now. Yes, she does not have a TV in her home! This isn't a chat about trying to convince anyone to delete their TV. This is an open chat about our experience with Rach's reset of no TV and Hannah living without one. Please follow, rate and review. We are excited to get into more ears and hearts and this really helps.

11: Day In The Life Of An International Flightie
Come fly with us! After many requests, today we go in the air with Rach. Han can stay on the tarmac where she prefers. Rach is an International Flight Attendant, and one day soon enough, she'll be back in the skies. She takes us on the plane with her and into a day in the life of a flightie. Hannah guesses what she thinks Rach does as a flight attendant and Rach explains exactly what her job in the air entails. She dives into the goss around the mile high club, the vomit, the brown stuff on the mirrors, the celebs on board, her sleeping arrangements and how she feels as the trolley of food gets towards the end of the plane. Hannah's biggest take away was around the importance of safety in her job. Come with us in this light and informative chat. Maybe one day in the near future, you might see Rach in the air. Make sure you listen to her safety briefing and do not talk to her during take off and landing. Oh, and make sure that tray table is stowed away. Please follow, rate and review. We are excited to get into more ears and hearts and this really helps.
