Sister Chat

Ever wanted to sit in the dining room of our Mother's old house, and talk about Once Upon A Time with our favourite Aunties over a (weak) cup of tea? Now is your chance! This conversation seemed to go for much longer than anticipated (so many stories, so little time!), so you'll find a Part 2 uploaded very soon - stay tuned!

This week we're talking about crafting, how it's brought us together, and how it's benefitted our Mum as she has gone through post-surgery rehab. We also talk about the importance of connection, particularly as women, and how we have a deep desire to connect with like-minded people, or people who are in a similar situation to us. Both Lee and Shirl have both experienced this, not only with craft, but also with raising kids, health issues, and in their jobs! Remember to send us feedback, let us know what you think, or send through questions to our email address hello@sisterchatpodcast.com

This week we're talking about the concept of 'Booth Rules', which depicts the way our family approaches boardgames. Some people (our husbands) aren't huge fans of it, but we think it's great! Have you ever thought that Monopoly just takes too long? Have you ever wanted a more fair way to play Trouble? Have you ever received a boardgame with NO instructions? We answer all these and more when we talk about 'Booth Rules'! Also, if you want to join the conversation, shoot us an email at Hello@sisterchatpodcast.com! We'd love to hear from you!

What else would we talk about this week than Mother's Day! We kick off this week's episode with a chat with our mum, Grace, and Lee's daughter, Gabbi, to get their insight on what Mother's Day means to them. Then we dive straight into our experiences as mothers. We talk about what it was like when we became a mum, the things we learnt in those early years, how we dealt with the Terrible Twos (and almost as bad, the Terrible Teens!), and what it's been like transitioning into having adult children and experiencing the dreaded (or not?) Empty Nest. Let us know what you think, how your experience might have been different to ours, or what we should have included! Shoot us an email at hello@sisterchatpodcast.com with questions, comments, or just to say hi :) We'd love to hear from you!

Hi! We're Lee and Shirl, and we're sisters. We started Sister Chat so that we could let the world in on some of the conversations, nuggets of wisdom, hilarious jokes, and general happenings of our lives! We'd love for you to come join us, so make yourself a cuppa and get settled for some hilarious get-to-know-you conversation between two of the best of friends.
