    WWYD: my in-laws don’t like me

    Hi!!! It’s been a little bit but we’re back with another WWYD episode! This week your questions are about in-laws and a dependent friend. QUESTION #1: My partner is the best but his parents don’t seem to like me. They live overseas and they have no interest in visiting us. I try really hard to involve them in our lives, but they never reciprocate. I can’t help but think I am not who they wanted for their son or their family. QUESTION #2: I feel like I’m in a completely different life stage to my best friend and I don’t know what to do. I’d be very happy to let the friendship naturally shift, however she is incredibly dependent on me. How would you suggest approaching the friendship going forward without cutting it off fully, but empowering the both of us to be able to live more independently? SEND US YOUR QUESTIONS If you have a question you want our opinion on, please slide into our DMs on Instagram! We’re @kicpod. If you’re not on Instagram, you can email us at kicpod@kicwellness.com.

    The insecurity Steph hasn’t been able to get over

    Steph watched the new Netflix documentary about Kylie Minogue. In the documentary, Kylie reflects on the insecurities that have stuck with her throughout her career, like that she didn’t deserve her success or that she doesn’t have a good voice. This got us thinking about the small comments that were made about us when we were younger that unfortunately have stuck with us for decades. Plus! Laura and Dalton have been playing pranks on each other and we’re sorry if that’s not what you signed up for on your Monday morning.
