Advertise on podcast: Curious Conversations with Tully and Sarah

Are you in perimenopause? Because… how are we actually supposed to know? This week we sit down with menopause expert, pharmacist, nutritionist and author Sarah Gray and ask pretty much everything we wanted to know about perimenopause. When does it start? What are the signs? What’s actually happening to our hormones? What can we do about it? And which supplements are actually worth considering? Then we get into the stuff people still seem a little scared to talk about, HRT, peptides and the changing conversation around menopause. This episode is for general information only and isn’t personalised medical advice. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

[Watch episode here]  We’re back. And apparently… a lot can happen in two months. Sarah disappeared to Europe, the internet decided she was now dating Tessa Bona, and Tul was back home going through something she never expected. This week, we catch up on everything that’s happened while Curious has been away. Sarah gives us the Europe debrief (and finally addresses those rumours), before Tul opens up about something much more personal, experiencing a miscarriage. It’s something so many women experience, yet so few openly talk about. Tul shares what happened, how it affected her and what she wishes we spoke about more when it comes to pregnancy loss. Two months. Two very different experiences. A LOT to unpack. Curious is back. 🤍 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A little life update from the couch. Tully accidentally became Sarah's girlfriend for the evening, we're both heading overseas (separately, before the rumours start), Sarah shares her best travel tips, and somehow... we've become one of those podcasts that talks about politics. Plus, Sarah has acquired an old-person accessory she never saw coming, and we bring back our favourite segment: Things We Never Used To Care About But Now Absolutely Do. Come for the life update, stay for the chaos. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Parenthood comes with plenty of advice, but what about the parts nobody prepares you for? This week we're talking friendships after babies, the transition into motherhood, the invisible load carried by parents, screen time, food battles, the hardest ages, going from one child to two, and the question every parent asks: how do you split your love? Sarah joins the conversation as the observer, asking the questions many people are thinking, while the mums share the realities of raising children in today's world. A real conversation about parenting, identity, friendship and figuring out what's next. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Curious, we accidentally start with Off Campus and end up questioning the entire wellness industry. From sleep scores, supplements and optimisation culture… to politics, cost of living, mental health and the weird feeling that everyone is going through something right now. Also: why we suddenly care about things we never used to care about (hello adulthood).  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Where did you think you'd be by now? Married? Kids? Dream career? Financial freedom? Corporate success? In this episode of Curious Conversations, we sit down with one of our closest friends, Hayley, a marketing and events powerhouse who has worked across the AFL, Olympics, Formula One and some of the world’s biggest sporting events to talk about careers, timelines, burnout, marriage, kids, happiness and the pressure to “have it all figured out.” From chasing salary goals and corporate success, to choosing freelance life, experiences over titles, and questioning the timelines society tells women they should follow. We chat: – Career pivots, freelancing & burnout – Success vs happiness – The pressure around marriage & children – Choosing a life that actually aligns with your values – Society’s “tick box” timeline – Changing your mind as you grow – Why not everyone wants the same life Hosted on Acast.

[Watch the episode here] This week on the Curious Conversations Business Series, we sit down with Pana, the founder of Pana Chocolate, one of the world’s first vegan, raw, and gluten-free chocolate brands. Before plant-based products became mainstream, Pana was already building a business that would go on to shape a new category in grocery stores. In this episode, he shares how watching Chocolat inspired the idea, his drive to always work for himself, and what it really takes to build something from nothing. A conversation about creativity, risk, and creating your own path. @tullylou @stitchup_studios @curious_conversations_podcast Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Curious Conversations is back… and this one goes a little off the rails. What started as a casual girls’ night Curious Questions conversation cards quickly turned into conspiracy theories, rogue opinions, tin foil hat moments, and the kind of chats that should probably stay off the internet… but here we are. @tullylou @stitchup_studios @curious_conversations_podcast Hosted on Acast.

[Watch the episode here] This week on the Curious Conversations Business Series, we’re joined by the family behind one of Australia’s most established fashion brands, Motto.

[Watch episode here] This week on Curious Conversations, Elisha is back on the couch and this time, we’re talking about our other baby… Stitch Up Studios. But honestly… What is it? What do we actually do? And where are we at with it all? In this episode, we break down the business behind the shows, what we’re building, the reality of running a media company, and where we see it going. @tullylou @stitchup_studios @curious_conversations_podcast Hosted on Acast.

[Watch the episode here] This week on Curious Conversations, we asked a simple question on the couch: How do you actually build connection with people? What followed was a real and surprisingly different set of answers. We dive into what it takes to build genuine relationships, from vulnerability and authenticity to boundaries, time, and understanding your own personal values. @tullylou @stitchup_studios @curious_conversations_podcast Hosted on Acast.

[Watch on YouTube here] This week on Curious Conversations, we’re diving into the conversations people have behind closed doors, the ones where we don’t necessarily agree. Should mums always be the ones organising catch-ups? What matters more in relationships, physical intimacy or emotional intimacy? And when it comes to friendships… should you take them back after they’ve hurt you? It’s honest. It’s uncomfortable. It’s real. We unpack expectations in motherhood, the pressure to maintain friendships, emotional vs physical connection in relationships, and the hard truth about forgiveness and second chances. Because sometimes growth doesn’t come from agreement, it comes from debate. Let us know in the comments: Do you expect mums to initiate catch-ups?Physical or emotional intimacy?Have you ever taken a friend back? #CuriousConversations #WomenTalking #FemaleFriendships #MotherhoodDebate #EmotionalIntimacy #ModernRelationships #FriendshipBreakups #WomenInTheir30s #RealTalk #podcast #bestfriends  Hosted on Acast.

This week on Curious Conversations, we’re back with a real-life update. It’s not the perkiest episode, but it is an honest one. We wanted to check in and share what’s actually been happening in our lives, no gloss, no pretending, just where we’re really at right now. Sometimes life feels heavy, uncertain, or messy, and this is one of those hard conversations. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We're back and it's like nothings changed Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Curious Conversations is back! Sarah is back from Europe, and Tully is back in the studio. This week, we debrief on everything that’s been happening since we left - how was the travel? What’s it like running two businesses? And naturally, we ended up talking about the anti-inflammation diet (because that’s half of my personality right now), and Tully dives into all things creatine. Sit down, catch up with us, and get ready because we’re back, baby. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
