So this is the BEST Island in Fiji?
Today's episode is brought to you ON LOCATION. We are IN Fijji. Actually there. With the plan trees and everything.
I've always wanted to say that. "On location".
It reminds me of Judith Chalmers when she'd stand by a fishing boat somewhere in the Bahamas wearing a turquoise sarong. Flashing her polished dentures at the camera while we all watched through the telly in England. Drooling. Depressed. Wishing it was sunny and not dark at four o'clock.
If you'd like to watch this podcast on video, you can do that on Spotify.
Enjoy!

Liz and Brian and getting ready to go to a wedding in Fiji.
Of course, there are concerns. Just a few. What with those dancing men and crab-racing women? It's all too much to think about...So Liz, thinks about her old pal, Mo. You know, Mo? The salt-of-the-earth mother-in-law. Mo, with no knickers...THAT Mo.
Join us as we plan a VERY special (and extra sociable) occasion!

I am a huge fan of this week's guest. Rachael Herron is a best-selling author who not only moved from the United States to New Zealand with her wife, but she then went on to write a book about it!
I have followed Rachael for a long time. She has a fabulous podcast (link below) about writing, which has helped and inspired me, both in life and on my writing journey, and today, I got to chat with her about her big move down under!
I know you are going to love Rachael as much as I do.
It's impossible not to. She is frank and open and freely shares the obstacles she overcame when moving to New Zeal ..read more

In this week's episode, husband and wife Liz and Brian set out to discover if it is healthy for a couple to spill the beans about personal stuff online. Reveal all.
Is it really necessary to wash those filthy sheets in public, or should 'things like that' be folded neatly into a square and rammed into the top drawer with the flowery hankies? Let's find out...
While we're at it, you'll also hear about rabbits, breasts, and Michael's best friend, Viagra.
Enjoy!
Don't forget to leave us a review (PLEASE!!) and share this podcast with a friend! Sharing is caring, and your support means the world t ..read more

Feeling is healing. I've read those words a lot while grieving my mum. And it's true; to a certain extent, it's true. But what people fail to mention is that feeling also hurts like hell. And no one likes to feel pain. Not if they can possibly avoid it.
In this week's behind-the-scenes episode, we share a personal healing practice that Liz has undertaken to help navigate the grief around losing her mum. Writing.
Liz is writing her second book, but what started as a happy, healing book about New Zealand has morphed into something quite different. An unexpected beast. Something that scares Liz t ..read more

What's happening? Why, when I was feeling fine, 'doing ok,' and 'coping', do I suddenly feel like I've been hit by a sledgehammer and fallen down a well of darkness?
It's been almost five months since my mum passed.
This is a behind-the-scenes podcast. One of those we never expected to record. But record we did.
I've never had a public panic attack before. I didn't have a clue what was happening. But I do now, and we wanted to share this podcast episode with you in the hope that it might help you in some small, comforting way.
Thank you for being with us; you are loved, you are nee ..read more

Liz and Brian are back in New Zealand. They flew from Chiang Mai via Bangkok and China and, thirty hours later, were home in Taranaki, New Zealand. Tucked up in bed.
But flying home to NZ didn't go smoothly. In fact, it was a sodding fiasco.
What started as a dream-come-true-flight ended with wet knickers and tears.
And not only that, the food on the plane was sh*t.
Sit back and listen to the story of the return flight
Enjoy!

Ohh...you're in for a real chuckle today peeps!
Victor Hugo famously said that "laughter is the sun that drives winter from the human face."
Hmm. I'm not sure if I'd go that far.
I just spent forty-five minutes laughing on this week's podcast and I still look like an insipid dripping candle.
But.
After listening to this episode, I can guarantee that YOU won't!
Stand by to learn about the world's funniest woman, a human donkey, how much MONEY Liz has made as a Number 1 Bestselling AUTHOR and...

This week has been horrible, it really has.
I'm sorry, but we have more sad news to share. Thank you for being here and letting us talk about it.
We also share the difficulties of being able to rest. I for one, struggle to differentiate between work and rest, and as I made this episode, I realised that I might be using the excuse of "but I LOVE to create" to distract myself from grief.
Either that or I'm a workaholic.
The truth is, I'm scared of dropping the balls that I've spent years learning to juggle. If this sounds like you, I think you'll enjoy this episode.
This is such a fascinat ..read more
