What Really Happens in an Estate Planning Appointment (And Why It Matters) Aug 27, 2025

I once had a mini panic attack on a plane. Not because of turbulence or a screaming toddler—but because I suddenly realised that everyone I’d listed as executor in my Will… was on the same plane. With me.

👑 Yep, full Royal Family vibes.
And if that plane went down? So would all of my carefully plan...

Why a Will Alone Isn’t Enough: Estate Planning Made Simple Aug 27, 2025

Let me tell you a quick story.

I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve heard: “Oh, I don’t need a will. Everything will just go to my partner anyway.” Or my personal favourite: “My dad made a will when he was healthy and died days later. They’re cursed, Stacy!”

You Don’t Have to Give Up Alcohol Aug 27, 2025

…but let’s have a real chat about it.

A while back, I recorded an episode about why I gave up alcohol. And then—true to life—I kind of went back to it. Then I gave it up again. It wasn’t some perfect wellness journey wrapped up in a bow. It was messy, real, and entirely mine.

Why I Stopped Tracking (And Why You Might Want To, Too) Jul 30, 2025

Let me set the scene.

I’m sitting at my desk, hair straightened for once (small miracles), ready to tackle the day… and my wrist buzzes. Again.
“You haven’t closed your rings.”
“You only got 5 hours of sleep.”
“Log your breakfast to stay on track!”

Honestly? I’d barely had my first coffee and I al...

The Pelvic Floor, Postpartum & The Truth Nobody Told You Jul 23, 2025

Let me take you back to when I had my first baby.

I had no clue about pelvic floors. None.
Did anyone tell me about it? Nope.
Did the doctor, midwife, or obstetrician mention it? Not once.
Was I handed a baby, a few nappies, and basically told, "Good luck out there!" Yep.

The Surprise Nobody Wants After Buying Property: Land Tax in NSW Jul 16, 2025

Let me tell you a quick story.

I’ve had so many conversations with clients that start out the same way:
