About this listen

Welcome to Surviving and Thriving: Girl Talk

Jess and Rox will be using their shared experience of trauma and their ability to survive to bring you relatable content, challenging stories, and hopefully some guidance, support and inspiration to uplift you and let you know that everything will be ok.

We know how isolating it can be to feel like the only one going through something, so join us and our guests for unfiltered, meaningful conversations where hopefully you can be signposted or be given some advice to help improve your situation.

  • Tinsel, Therapy and Total Overwhelm, Let's Talk Mental Health...
    Dec 1 2025

    Send us a text

    This week on Surviving and Thriving: Girl Talk, we’re getting real about mental health, the good days, the down days, and the “please don’t talk to me until I’ve had coffee” days.

    Join us as we chat about our own experiences with therapy, how we try to keep our minds in check while juggling life, and what we actually do when everything feels a bit much.

    It’s a light-hearted and completely judgment-free conversation about looking after your headspace without pretending we’ve got it all figured out.

  • Mum guilt, teen eye rolls & rediscovering… Whoever I was before "mum'
    Nov 24 2025

    Send us a text

    This week on Surviving and Thriving: Girl Talk, we delve into the emotional rollercoaster that is motherhood, complete with mum guilt, identity crises, and the Olympic sport of accidentally embarrassing your teenagers (or not).

    Join us as we candidly discuss what it’s like to lose yourself a little in the chaos of raising tiny humans who grow into eye-rolling, door-slamming, mysteriously hungry teenagers. We unpack why taking time for yourself feels illegal, and how motherhood changes your sense of identity.

    Real talk and zero judgment. Let’s survive it and thrive in it together.
