Move it Mama - The Sparkle Pod
Validating feelings, landing strips, keep cup updates and HELLO CHRISTCHURCH
Welcome to the Move it Mama podcast, aka Our Therapy Pod. We very much look forward to our Monday debrief covering all things that spring to mind, and after the weeks that pass, we always feel in need of the solid vent. In today's episode, true to form, we're here there and everywhere. We talk about the weekend that was, therapy and having feelings validated (love this for us), two kids being a walk in the park (according to Lisa only) laser hair removal and thoughts on hair, a LONG AWAITED KEEP CUP UPDATE (lol), an impending trip to Christchurch AND MORE. Leece rattles off some decent book and recipe chat at the end there; you might want to make notes. We love you guys. Thanks for being here.

We're back; life's hard.
From chicken breast vs chicken thighs, the challenges of kids and life just all 'round being hard - we're back. It's a tough ass world out there at the minute - for a lot of people - and we're feeling it today. Despite the semi-negativity we might have projected in this episode, we're very excited to be back to our very therapeutic waffle of a podcast. Despite our moaning, please know we're so grateful to you, our community, for your DMs, silent (or loud) support, camaraderie and engagement (in case this isn't obvious). We're a little all over the shop today - what's new - but we're talking our recent challenges with the kids, the way they can change, the sometimes monotonous nature of life, comparison is the thief of joy and so on. A reminder that we never know what's going on and that's why we always bang on about kindness. Thank you for being here - it's great to be back after our unintentional pod hiatus.

*BONUS* booze episode (inspired by Leece's DMs)
Whenever or if ever Leece mentions being sober/giving up alcohol, she is sent a message of some sort. It's typically something like "gosh you're inspiring - the way you have done this - I'd love to", or "I'm what you call 'sober curious', but I don't know how to do it", and these messages often come with a variety of questions. Last week, Leece was sent one message in particular that held quite a few questions, and we decided it might be useful to approach it in its own podcast episode. So while Leece attempts to talk to these questions, you can choose whether to listen, and that is to say that this chat has the potential to be triggering to some, so please listen only if you're interested or intrigued. To begin the podcast, Leece gives a bit of context as to how this conversation has come about, some background into how she drank before, and then we roll into answering the questions. We talk about whether not drinking has influenced her relationships (and how), grieving the 'party girl', stopping 'forever' or rather with the approach of 'seeing how it goes', whether social occasions and events are less fun, and generally how she feels she is accepted socially, as a non-drinker. It's a huuuuuuge topic, and please know we're talking to this in a bid to answer many questions for those we know are interested - and without judgement. Thank you to this beautiful woman for her message that opened up this chat, and for her vulnerability in doing so. Love x

Kelly Coe commits herself to the waffle pod
Hello! Kelly (Founder of Augustine by Kelly Coe) has been listening to the podcast and we decided she should join us for our weekly waffle pod Monday. We think she does what you guys do which is yell and curse and agree and disagree with us from your own abodes, so here she is to make us shook. FUN!! We offer basically zero business chat today - as perhaps you'd expect with our special guest - but instead we're covering off super important topics such as (but not limited to) - other podcast and book recommendations, LIVE music, sport, holidays and events, AI and so on. Leece talks a bit about Dan after an all round positive weekend in the Fong household, and off the back of that we ensue normal programming - AKA waffle. What fun to have Kelly join us on the mic - we hope you enjoy the chat xx (hat selfies coming in hot soon lol)

Managing consumption of smutty literature & more
Everyone has a story - we hear this everywhere. We're reminded with emotional Instagram posts and the constant stream of such themes, really across all social media platforms. We're reminded not to judge, because everyone has a story. Although we're reminded every day it can sometimes be easy to fall into the trap of thinking other people lead perfect lives. Social media being one end of the spectrum of this and on the other hand, the made up stories and plots we read about in novels. Do we need to be more mindful about what we consume across the board? It feels that way. That being said, this is a reminder that all of us have our sh*t - however we present on the surface, there's always more to the story (all of this to preface another moaning rendition of the sparkle pod lol). From accepting ourselves as we age, insecurities, erotic fiction and some subsequent book recommendations, feeling like 'the only girl in the world' in the club (are we the only ones?), the Gold Coast weekend round up, kids, gifts, birthdays and so on. And if any of you have any life changing g string suggestions, you know where to find us.

Lisafong.com, burn out, kids sport, mom rage & other potentially relatable weekend tales
Leece is short on sleep but we're both quite happy to be house bound to the microphones today, to debrief the weekends antics. Excuse the fact Jess's mic isn't on for the first little bit but we rectify that. From the prospect of burnout and how to avoid it (tips welcome) to kids sending us mad, the relentless of kids sport, full weekends and other such chat. Jess is tired of clumsy kids who bite their fingers and Leece is busy taking toasted sandwich orders and breaking up headlocks. We moan a lot while on this tangent but we're sure you're used to that. Jess went to Hayley Sproull who we can thank for a funny story share, and we finish with a sparkle spreader of course, for the most part dedicated to you, our amazing, beautiful community that we're so happy and grateful to have. Dan made Leece a coffee once we got off the pod FYI. Hero.

HBD to the King, accents, names, marching ants, overanalysing & ballet flats
Here there and everywhere on this Kings Birthday Monday - welcome back to your sparkly (ish) poddy. Literally a second before we hit record we said, "have you got anything to talk about" - and while the collective answer was no, here we are hehe. Accents and names, ants in the house, the weekends events, Leece and her official love status on Marley (Nana's dog), ballet flats, overanalysing all conversations and naturally, a segment on kids. We also spend the back half reflecting on Dan a bit and talking about the current little wins. Also, on the topic of kids and struggling to fall asleep, we're open to strategies, so send them in. See you next week, xx

The usual: coffee, kids, alcohol, discipline. The struggle is real.
Hello, Leece has her keep cup with her this morning, set up and rearing to go for coffee with her 'gal pal'. Are we divisive? Do any of you actually have any thoughts on coffee etiquette to the extent we do, or are we full of absolute shite and just ridiculous (like mum says after each pod episode)? Genuine question lol. So we start with coffee and alcohol, and quickly get into parenting where we pretty much stay for the duration of the pod. What can we say, it's the *era* we're in. From peer pressure when it comes to other kids - to "letting go", and discipline versus consistency. We're sent in a hefty question around how to handle a situation where the Fortnite rules at your house differ to the Fortnite rules at a friends house, and a bit about parenting and phones when maybe the views/thoughts on phones - between the parents - might differ. It. Is. So. Hard. Are we all finding it this hard? Do we need a mindset shift, do we need to chill out, or are we all in the same boat? Would really love to hear your thoughts on all of this! Love, xo

All sorts (possib a yawn in spots) - overwhelm, kids, being busy, Liver King, Dan and life conundrums
Every so often, we hit a few walls and can't find a funny bone in our body - not that we're here to be funny but we do always love to have a lol. This episode isn't at all full of them all, so consider yourself warned. We're here there and everywhere, which isn't unusual either, is it? From the never-ending state of overwhelm to the general state of the Fong garage, to the teen, his phone and lunch boxes, cooking chat, The Liver King, and the confusion and difficulty that we feel can come from the very *overwhelming* (there's that word again) amount of information out there today. When it comes to health and fitness we've always believed in keeping things simple. While sometimes it can take some trial, error and time to find what might work for you (adding on the fact we're constantly growing, ageing and evolving), we love to hear people talk of variety and doing these things not just for the physical benefits but the mental benefits, too. Next week we promise some lols or more banter, without even a sniff of dry humping xx

Our 200th episode! 200+ seconds from all of us + the usual Monday waff
Hey pals! A bit of a long one today but it isn't ENTIRELY our fault. Happy belated Mother's Day to those in our audience who celebrate and our thoughts are with those who find the whole day just one big triggering ordeal - to you we send our love. Last week we put it out to you, our community, for ideas on how we might be able to celebrate our 200th episode - a big thank you for your ideas! (Mum isn't here yet but, never say never). After some debrief waffle from the week that was - Samsungs and insecurities, poo, glasses and social media rigmaroles (again, AGAIN) - we then tend to the question, "What does being the face of Move it Mama do or mean to us in our own lives?", based on the fact that often our audience hear how amazing Move it Mama is for our members - but what's it like from our end? This question came in from a listener and we thought OK, we can manage this one and we like it. So, 200 seconds (a little more from some lol) from all of us, starting with Leece, the founder and creator of such an incredible community. After we hear from the team, we close off with our sparkle spreaders - or an attempt at one. Thank you to the beautiful team for contributing to this, and to you, our listeners and our community, who make it all what it is. We bloody love you.

Reflecting on the last year (heavy chat) & some lighter bits (naturally)
We've hopped into the 'robe a little late in the day today - weirdly it doesn't disrupt our flow too much. In today's episode we unintentionally find ourselves in a reflective mood. We're reflecting over the events of the past year as, with Mother's Day approaching, we're nearly one year since the unravelling of Dan's illness and the events that followed. To say this is triggering is an understatement. A lot of feelings that never really left still boil; festering away at the surface. The year to the day coming around seems to be amplifying this - obviously hugely so for Leece but also those around her. Other than that, we dissect a bit about the weekend, one pot pasta, adventurous family outings, keep cups and other average (at best) waffle. Don't forget to join us (if you're a member) for our next Zoom workout this Sunday night at 8pm (DM us for details if you're interested!). Thanks for being the best community out there.

Dogs, night routines, the itch (neck oil apology), compliments, kids, endless parental worry & keep cup chronicles
And we're back. An un expected, unplanned week off, but here we are back to it this week for a full hour of debriefing (cue waffle). Leece is currently a 'whether-she-likes-it-or-not' owner of a dog (/sole trader), and as a result we surprise even ourselves by how long we discuss the animal lol. From dog and kid toileting and bedtime routines, to kids saying the darnedest things, Leece's itch and the neck oil saga (an acknowledgement/nod here to our recent discussions - a good reminder to us), giving out compliments, the worry in being a mother (/parent) and more. It's good to be here. Thank you - as always - for your support to Move it Mama and the podcast.

Neck oil PSA, coffee conundrums, the dry hump and more
Just before we recorded this morning, a friend of Move it Mama sent us an article about Facebook scam ads. It was pretty alarming in general, but especially alarming in relation to Leece's recent neck oil purchase and consumers being sucked in left right and centre. We know a few of you might also have gone on to purchase said oil - maybe it won't be problematic to everyone but it's absolutely a PSA worth taking note of. The world is becoming such a confusing place to live; trying to decipher what's real and what's not (/a bot) - just wild. We waffle on a few tangents today, as per - Leece's keep cup woes, slandering our mother (her fault for not coming on the pod yet), facial hair, tattoos, tweens and scrunch bums, a Dan update, the Christchurch marathon and more. After some further research, (post recording) we've learnt a little more about those of you out there dry denim humping... potentially worth revisiting, lol. See you next week, and school holiday solidarity to those in the thick.

Dry humping denim on denim and more
OK please allow us at least 24 minutes of your time before we start to chat about anything interesting and with any enthusiasm! Not sure why but as we had to record on a Sunday this week, we definitely felt a bit off and take a bit to get started. Straight into phone chat again. I know, can we stop? Jess tells a shocking account of an article sent in on that topic and naturally we talk more about it - from phones and screens to misogyny (without knowing the definition) and parenting this phone *era*. We touch on Dan and how he's going at the moment with his stem cell transplant, and FINALLY at that point we find a bit of spunk and personality lol. From picking up on the streets of London to vaping at the Move it Mama party and dry humping denim on denim - not to leave out Leece's impending getaway with her four boys from four different dads (NO JUDGEMENT). Lots of waffle, once again. Love that for you.

A bit of a yawn today but it all ends with a sex camp dream.
Not quite sure where it was we went wrong this morning but the general consensus post recording was that we might have been somewhat lacklustre today. So - apologies for that from the outset if that's the vibe at your end! In this episode we kick things off with more parenting chat - it feels super relevant at the moment off the back of the Netflix series Adolescence - thoughts on parenting in this era where we're more stretched for time than ever before. We talk about connection, in terms of trying to take the time to connect with our kids but also our gratitude for everyone we connect with, too. Leece talks to Dan with an update on his current stem cell transplant process; a quick debrief on how he his after taking the kids to visit him in Brisbane on Sunday. I talk to a story about a content creator (Remi Bader) who's been getting stick left right and centre in the online world because of a recent stomach surgery, waffling to no conclusive point really, other than that the world of social media is just such a massive trip - one that even us as small little-baby-whitebait-fish feel the consequences of at times. Back to Breeze Balm again before manifesting two camping events in our future lives - one where everyone we've connected with in the past pitches their tent, and the other where we invite all of the exes and "party" (not actually, but listen in to find out haha). See you next week. We love you all - please know we realise most of our community is here for the right reasons and goodness knows we appreciate you so much for that.

The Feijoa, influenced by neck oil, social media & Adolescence
Now here's a question - IS the Feijoa a polarising fruit? We'd love to hear your thoughts lol. Hitting the mic with some big questions for our waffle pod Monday. We actually start the episode on a bit of a social media high horse right from the get go [to be "honest"]. But really if we - as grown adults - can have our own little wobbles and battles with social media, how can we expect the brains of our under developed kids to navigate such a world?!?! Where do we stand? It is both eye-opening and petrifying. Naturally our conversation is guided by the discovery of the new Netflix mini-series, "Adolescence". A disturbing but real-life drama that in my view is a must watch. It leaves you disturbed, but I do think that's kind of the point. Leece having not yet watched, posed the question - could I/should I watch this with my young teens? I've been debating this on my own, and wondering the same - could it be powerful to watch with your older kids, in order to illustrate the dangers of social media, or is it simply too confronting for their impressionable eyes? Once again, we'd love to know your thoughts. Scattered in and around this serious and wildly topical conversation is some kid party chat, some beauty/skincare issues and the influences we're under, being jealous of bouncing running boobs, other parenting questions, and a very quick Dan synopsis as we close out the episode. Once again, and *as ALWAYS*, thank you for being here.

Brain rot, nailing mum life, botox & other 'gram Q's
As you'd be aware, we were waiting on some big news last week and given we're back to the mic this week, you know it was good :) we can hear it in Leece's mood today which is so nice to see/hear, am I right. Once again our gas bagging ways get the better of us today. For the record, we've tried to lure our mother to the mic a billion times over and we are no closer to breaking her. One day. One day? Let's say 'one day', in an attempt to manifest the dream. Well, we start our chat talking kids these days and keeping up with their terminology, a bit of poo chat, and some story telling from Leece on how she has finally mastered motherhood (fleeting, we know). We then take the time to answer a couple of questions that came in through the gram, from Dan and God to lashes and botox. Appreciate you.

A big week, but first siblings, matcha, lunchboxes, parasite cleanses & so on
Hello, it's a big week here at MIM HQ (for the Fongs), and so today's episode felt a bit tough for Leece, but as always, we made it. We'll hope to be back next Monday with more waffle pod - things all going to plan. This week, as per, we're all over the show - from childhood mems and siblings, to lunchbox and baking woes, matcha and black coffee, book club, the idea of a parasite cleanse and in turn the problem with health podcasts and other random tangents. We were interrupted once or twice today so our apologies for that. Another week another podcast, and another couple of conversations in our week (both on the street and in the DMs) about how much you guys love to tune in. Always grateful.

Rooting, trauma, Snapchat and buckling up (not all at once)
Unsurprisingly, we're a little all over the show today - it felt good (lol). We go from rooting and dogs as kids, or kids being like dogs, to how to try to enjoy facials with trauma; the stress and angst of the next wee patch with Dan and life, marriage and pondering whether there is such thing as perfect (can't be) - to being over stimulated, kids again and a big story about Snapchat. And for the record of COURSE NZ legalised gay marriage first - shame on us for forgetting this!! Thanks for listening. We love your DMs.

In a mood: back to phones, teens, poking, drugs & drink
WARNING - there are a LOT of F bombs in here and also a lot of drug and alcohol chat. Needless to say this episode is absolutely not suitable for smaller ears. With that, let us preface that we firmly understand we're all different - we have different views, morals, and so on. We all have different ways of living, different tastes and different interests and that's OK - or even wonderful - so to be clear, we discuss these topics without judgement. On this podcast we find ourselves opening up about our lives and current experiences, and that's all this is. FYI: Leece is having her every-other-period where the one ovary takes its sweet ass time and hence her mood is somewhat agitated (lol) - she wanted to make mention of that. Without further caveating (lol), we discuss all sorts on todays episode: PMS, dogs (love you Marley), phones and teens and the UTTER rigmarole of a world we now live in, alcohol and drugs (inspired by the Electric Avenue festival), new age dating, and exercise and 'loving the place you live'. We love our Monday catch ups and are so happy to have you along for the ride! X
