Hey Lifers! It's your enthusiastically unqualified but passionate about helping a sister out therapy Thursday where we dive into your deepest questions!

Hey lifers! Today we are talking about a very important relationship in your life, one that you probably think about at least 3 times per day and maybe without even realising it.

Soaking, parking, floating, marinating, dock and park, jump and hump… never heard these terms in relation to sex before? Well fear not, neither had we! Until a teenage Mormon armed with Tik tok made our day and shed some light on this hush hush act. Kinks. My newish boyfriend just told me he has a few different kinks and mentioned things like urinating during sex as one of them. I’m not sure I’m ready. Do I try or dump and run!? My boyfriend of one year wants to move in together, I think he is m...

In today's episode, we jump into something a lot of y'all have been asking about; manifestation! The law of attraction is it the way to get what you want in life or is it a bit too woo woo to work? Well, today we are joined by the lovely, pragmatic, manifestation guru and journalist Jordanna Levin to talk all things manifestation and how it can affect your dating and love life. We speak about how manifestation has been a little misrepresented in the pop culture space and how rom coms from Hollyw...

Happy therapy Thursday Lifers! Today we're jumping into your questions with a toughy! -I don't agree with my parent's morals. They're racist and I don't want my children growing up around those kinds of perspectives. Do I cut them off from seeing my children? -I'm feeling really left out at work. My colleagues are all friendly with each other and do things outside of work...without me. How do I infiltrate 'the click' and become friends with them? -I've made a new friend. We chat ALL the time.

Happy Tuesday Lifers! Or maybe we should be wishing you a content Tuesday? Because in today's episode we are diving into the happiness trap and how our goal should possibly be one more of content-ness than happiness. We sat down and chatted mental health and mindfulness with Hugh Van Cuylenburg from The Resilience Project. Hugh's story is interesting. It's thought provoking, and it's empowering. In times like how we are living right now, we couldn't think of a better time to talk to someone like...

Its the big kahuna, the big cheese, the chat of the century... the Bach Uncut episode we have all been waiting with baited breath for. On today's episode we are sitting down with Holly and Jimmy and having a good old yarn with Australia's newest bachie royals. Holly shares the truth behind the mean girl drama, where things are at with Brooke and we also get our hands on a very saucy voice memo that Jimmy left for his new love, and well we don't call him the Kinky Captain for nothing. A big thank...

Goodness gracious me it’s the final week of Bach Uncut! Jimmy’s already clocked off for the season so he’s making the last three remaining girls organise their own dates. Holly clearly snagged the entire remaining budget and she picks Jimmy up in a pimping two-story boat. They talk about what life would be like after the show and even though Jimmy admits he’ll work so much that he’ll only be around 2 weeks of the year, Holly doesn’t care because she admits she’s fallen in love with him. Whaaaat,...

Happy Thursday Lifers, It's time to get into your deep, dark and burning questions but FIRST we simply must know how the heck Britt manifested this friendship with Rebel Wilson that we're seeing all over the gram! Our deep dives for today are: -Friendship/sibling work relationships. Do they work with work? How do you get them to work? -I've been in a happy relationship for a long time and we have great sex.

Hooly dooley can you believe it’s hometowns already !? Well we can… because it felt like we watched 82 eps of the Bach last week. We kick off ep 13 with Brooke getting the last single date up for grabs - Jimmy’s taken her to the world’s highest sex swing at the top of Centrepoint Tower. Look.. there’s no swing and it’s actually just a pilates class but they give the instructor the flick and make out like it’s going out of fashion. Next, Jimmy thought it’d be fun if they drank their body weight i...

Happy Thursday Lifers and today we have a couple of doozy questions for you! We're kicking off your therapy Thursday by asking how the heck to get a friend to not only admit that they damaged the house you rent, but also to pay to fix it! We then open a somewhat lengthy, and possibly 'please skip ahead if you're a little high brow' dilemma about whether you sit or stand...and whether potentially gender plays into it. Our third question is a little bit harder to stay neutral on. "I'm really into ...

Happy Tuesday Lifers, and that is exactly what we plan on bringing you! The world has been a dark place lately and today's episode should help you feel a little bit better. Today we chat with Em Carey. In 2013, Em was on a trip abroad that should have been a fun, European trip of a lifetime when she had a skydiving accident in Switzerland that changed the course of her life. Em's parachute failed, causing her to become paralysed from the waist down. Em defied the odds and learnt to walk again, a...

So how many episodes of the Bachelor do you think we’re re-capping this week? 2..14...28? Well if you guessed 3, you’d be correct! Wednesday was a big thick juicy double ep that kicked off with Holly getting a second single date. They waded through freezing knee-deep water in a national park, which is as good as single dates have been going lately. The group date saw all the girls having lunch with Jimmy’s mum, Susan. The only issue.. She likes her bachelorettes served well done. Poor old Steph ...

Your free Therapy Thursday session, where we answer your deep dark and burning questions except today, producer Keeshia is stepping up to the mic and doing her best to give you her equally unqualified advice! - I got out of a serious relationship 12 months ago. We had great chemistry and even better sex. I've found that since we broke up, sex just doesn't compare with anyone else or I am comparing it to my last partner. So I am finding sex isn't as enjoyable and I don't feel a spark. Help! -I’ve...

Another week of the Kinky Captain gracing our screens and we’ve been delivered a smörgåsbord board of (albeit less horny) goodness. Ep 7 kicks off with Jimmy gushing over his motorbike and the girls pretending like they’re interested in it. Lily is invited to take a ride to a secluded beach where Jimmy’s grandma had three heart attacks (we’re not kidding). It’s also the perfect spot to learn how to surf and make out. Meanwhile back at the mansion, Jimmy’s sister and cousin are joining the girls ...

It's Therapy Thursday and in today’s session we are answering your deep, dark and burning questions: My boyfriend broke up with me because I told (please keep up) his ex’s partner that she was trying to cheat on him. Who’s in the wrong here? How much should be shared with your partner? When we say “please keep this to yourself,” is their partner an exception? Is it normal to fantasise and close my eyes while I’m having sex with my partner? If you have a question for Ask Uncut follow us @LIFEUNCU...

Some of us are more willing to admit it than others, but isn’t it just so therapeutic to chuck on some trash reality TV at the end of a busy, hectic day? Whether you like keeping up with the Kardashians, or following the drama filled shit show that is married at first sight, I think we can all admit that there’s something about escaping into a different world to our own that we find intriguing. But what exactly is it that makes us want to be a fly on the wall in other people’s lives? Why are we ...

Hold onto your undies Lifers, it's ep 5 and 6 and by goodnesses gracious me, they were doozies. Matt and Laura are back squabbling like a married couple behind the microphone, bringing you the breakdown on this weeks episodes. On ep 5 Steph was given the worlds most boring single date. She (once again) suffered amnesia and all of a sudden has a new found love of pilots. The date ended with an intense game of tonsil hokey...surprise surprise (to absolutely no one). The group date saw Holly (Nikki...
