The Lunchbox Struggle Is Real

Summer’s here and so is the annual bikini hunt. We’re answering everything you’re googling: what suits my body, what works for bigger boobs and the mum tum, how to buy online without trying on, and which togs actually stay on when you dive in. Plus our favourite brands, a strong opinion on tankinis, and why the bikini should fit your body, not the other way round.

Before you get shitty at us for talking about Christmas already, let us explain. Black Friday sales kick off in November, so we’re getting organised now and buying gifts while brands have their cheapest prices of the year. In this episode we share our full gift lists so you’re ready when the sales hit. We cover the best sheets and duvets to grab on sale, gifts for kids (helmets, togs and the lunchbox we give to everyone), Secret Santa ideas under $50, bigger-ticket picks over $100, gifts for teachers, and why we’re pro-voucher (as long as it’s a good one). Plus our favourite thing to give: something homemade. Think granola bark, spiced nuts and chilli oil in a nice jar, tied with a bow and a flower from the garden. And our own Black Friday app sale starts 11 November. It’s our lowest price of the year.

Rosa is five weeks out from baby number two, so we sat down to talk through the plan. Hetti's birth was a fast, intense induction. This time Rosa’s hoping her body kicks things off on its own, and she’s taking the pressure off breastfeeding. She’s also deciding between the hospital and a birthing unit. She’s excited about the birth but getting pretty nervous about the juggle. She’s definitely not winding down, which Margo feels terrible about, because she’s booked Rosa in for three shoots and endless meetings in the week she was meant to be nesting. Plus, the postpartum snacks Rosa is ordering Margo to make.

It’s that time of year again. The sun’s out, the shorts are coming out of hibernation, and so is the voice in your head telling you that roll definitely wasn’t there last year. We’re giving you your yearly reminder to wear the goddamn shorts (and get the arms out). We’re talking some sense into ourselves and unpacking why the person judging you hardest is almost always you. We get into full-length mirrors, cellulite down the backs of our legs (we all have it), and why those shorts you’ve been saving “for when they fit again” need to go. Make the shorts fit your body, not your body fit the shorts.

From the six-week "all clear" to Instagram mums back at CrossFit by 12 weeks, the pressure to bounce back after baby is everywhere. But what is it actually doing to women? Women's health physio Grace Coombs is back on the podcast to unpack it. Grace sees the fallout in her clinic every week: women rushing back to exercise before their bodies are ready, then dealing with leakage, prolapse, pain and exhaustion that could have been avoided. And on top of it all, feeling like they're failing at a recovery that was never meant to be a race. We cover:– Where the pressure to bounce back really comes from– What rushing back actually does to your body– Why the six-week check is a starting point, not a finish line– The outdated pregnancy exercise myths, and what the research says now– The signs you're genuinely ready to return to exercise– Why we'd rest a broken bone for 12 weeks, but not a birth Grace's advice for every woman: pregnancy isn't an injury, and the goal was never to get your old body back. You have a new body, and you can absolutely build strength in it. No shame, no race, no comparison.

Are GLP-1s disordered eating in a new uniform? Everyone's suddenly on them and no one's actually explaining what's going on inside the body. So we got Dr Libby back on the podcast to break it all down properly. This isn't about telling you what to do with your body or judging anyone who's chosen this path. It's about understanding what this medication is doing to your gut, your muscle and your nutrient levels, and what happens when you come off them. We chat about: What GLP-1s actually are Are GLP-1s disordered eating in a new uniform? Why they work so much more intensely than the body's own version The study showing iron stores dropping by around 30% in just 10 weeks Muscle loss (yes, even if you're hitting the gym) and why it's not just the muscles you can see Why up to 60% of people get gut symptoms like nausea, reflux and bloating Rebound weight gain and why the deeper work matters How to make your small meals work as hard as possible Where supplements fit in when nutrient targets are near impossible to hit Remember, you are so worth taking care of. SHOWNOTES: Iron Episode with Dr Libby 2 weeks free on the Two Raw Sisters App - code ‘2WEEKS’ - and keep an eye out for our biggest sale of the year in November, which is 5 months free.

We're wrapping up the AU leg of our How We Cook tour, and it's time for Peaks, Pits and Bananas! We get real about hitting total salad burnout on tour (yep, even we get sick of vegetables sometimes), why the media landscape has changed so much since our last book tour, what it's like navigating a "viral or nothing" news cycle, and - because priorities - the Melbourne sandwich that changed our lives.

We're recording this from the road - quite literally. Margo's turning 28 today and has banned us from mentioning it (sorry Marg, too late), Rosa's 30 weeks pregnant and running workshops till 8:30pm, and How We Cook — our sixth cookbook — just launched. One down, twelve tour stops to go. We're talking what an actual day on tour looks like, why we'd rather eat leftovers in an Airbnb than go out for dinner, and what's actually filling our cups when the days are this full. Plus: our go-to salmon grain bowl is finally hitting the app. Follow us on Instagram: @tworawsisters Download the Two Raw Sisters app:Spotify: https://tworawsisters.app.link/podcast-bau-spotify Apple: https://tworawsisters.app.link/podcast-bau-appleSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We sat down with Dr Libby, one of the most respected voices in women's health and nutrition, to unpack why so many women are walking around iron deficient without knowing it. She breaks down the real numbers your ferritin should be sitting at (not just what's "in range"), why fatigue, anxiety, and hair loss can actually be an iron problem in disguise, and how to finally make sense of your blood test results. If you've ever been told your iron is "fine" but still feel wrecked, this one's for you.
