    'My partner died. Then I discovered his texts'

    Hello! Today’s guest, Erin Baker, is a journalist and writer. After losing her dad, dog, and partner in the last year, Erin has learnt to face death head-on. In this Life Lessons episode, Erin opens up about her partner James’ terminal brain cancer diagnosis and the messiness that followed as they struggled with their volatile relationship and the politics of their blended family. Erin also shares the horror of discovering James’ messages to another woman after he passed, and what that would have meant for their relationship were he still alive. Erin has learnt that you can still love and grieve imperfect people, that life isn't about happiness, and that death isn't something to fear.

    'I asked my Instagram followers to be my surrogate' with Lisa Messenger

    Hello! Today’s guest, Lisa Messenger, has a daughter on the way - but another woman is giving birth to her. In this conversation, Lisa opens up about her tumultuous fertility journey and how everything changed when her friend Sarah offered to carry her first baby for her. Now Lisa is expecting her second child via surrogacy – this time, her surrogate is a stranger. In Australia, surrogacy must be altruistic, which is why when Lisa posted on her Instagram story asking if anyone would carry her baby for her, she was surprised when a stranger said yes. Lisa also talks about being a new parent in her 50s, and the complex process of surrogacy in Australia. If you’d like to support Lisa, you can follow her on Instagram @lisamessenger.

    Ellidy Pullin: 'I want another baby'

    Hello! This Thursday we’re bringing you a very special bonus episode, where Ruby sits down with Australian podcaster and influencer, Ellidy Pullin. Ellidy is no stranger to grief; in 2020, she tragically lost her partner, Alex ‘Chumpy’ Pullin, in a free-diving accident. After his death, Ellidy accepted that she’d probably ‘be alone forever’, but 6 years later, she’s just announced her engagement to her long-term boyfriend, Brock Wadsworth. In this conversation, Ellidy shares her initial fears about opening up her heart to love again after the pain of losing someone you love and the unimaginable grief that comes with it. She speaks about how the two can co-exist, and that she’s giving herself permission to move forward while honouring Chumpy’s memory, in her words: ‘Your heart can grow, and grow, and grow’. Ellidy also tells Ruby about the moment Brock proposed to her mid-flight, how she feels about having a second baby, and the beautiful relics and memories of Chumpy’s she’s already passing down to her daughter Minnie. If you’d like to support Ellidy, you can follow her on Instagram @ellidy_. Your host today was Ruby Hall (⁠⁠@rubytuesday2.0⁠⁠), and the guest was Ellidy Pullin (@ellidy_⁠).

    Chloe Pink on starting IVF at 26

    Hello! Today’s guest, Chloe Pink, is so much more than the wife of a professional athlete.

She also talks about starting IVF at the age of 26, and her determination to be a mother. This conversation touches on themes of body image.

    "Robert, chill out!" Robert Irwin on THAT undies campaign

    Hello! Today we’re joined by Australian icon, Robert Irwin! Robert likely needs little introduction… he’s the son of Steve and Terri Irwin, and one of the world’s most beloved conservationists and television personalities.

Robert and Ruby also chat about love, relationships and the lessons he’s learned from the incredible women in his life. Robert also opens up about what it was like growing up watching his dad, Steve Irwin, inspire millions of people around the world.
