We’re absolutely thrilled to welcome Jens and Lachie — better known on stage as Skank Sinatra and Iva Rosebud — to this week’s episode of The Heart Of It. Not only are they partners in life, but also creative collaborators who perform together as drag artists, dazzling audiences across Australia and around the world. By day, Lachie works as a landscaper, and by night, the pair transform into their fabulous alter-egos, combining love, art, and sequins into one unforgettable act. Their story began during the COVID lockdowns — a time of isolation for many, but for Jens and Lachie, it was the spark that ignited both a deep romantic connection and a bold creative partnership. This episode dives into identity, artistry, queer love, and the power of finding your person — on and off the stage.

This episode of 'The Heart Of It' is a barrel of laughs. Ali is joined by BFF Cath Mahoney and lets just say these two bring out a cheeky side of each other (emphasis on cheeky). Being 50 and single wasn’t exactly where Cathy Mahoney thought she’d be at this stage of life — but she’s embraced it with open arms and an open mind. From dating apps and kink platforms to some truly wild (and hilarious) encounters, Cath is diving headfirst into the dating world and discovering a bold new side of herself. Even attending a BDSM workshop — because why not? This episode is a raw, funny, and empowering look at exploring sexuality, identity, and self-worth later in life… and doing it all unapologetically.

We were so happy to speak with Sarah Grynberg who delved deep into the mysterious world of adult friendships, navigating them, losing them, being ghosted and how to know when the match up just isn't right.

This week on The Heart Of It, we’re joined by the ultimate Easy Dinner Queen, Steph De Sousa, and her husband Neville, for a warm, honest, and at times emotional conversation about love, family, and finding your way. Steph opens up about life after MasterChef (and her return) as well as the tragic past relationship she struggled to escape. She shares how those experiences shaped the woman and partner she is today. Neville brings his own thoughtful perspective, reflecting on his upbringing, the culture shock of becoming a stepdad in Australia, and what it’s really like blending families and lives, and we hear the story behind their “very underwhelming” engagement?  Steph’s new book Easy Dinner Queen is out now—don’t miss it!
