Amy gets brutally honest about modern marriage, parenting karma and why “single women & married men are the happiest” might not be wrong. From her dreamy teenage Valentine’s Day to her absolute worst (hello pregnancy + gastro nightmare), Amy unpacks the highs and lows of love and why she’d happily stay single forever if anything happened to Ryan.

The episode dives into viral relationship psychology, the mental load in marriage, why married women feel overwhelmed, and the controversial truth about happiness studies. Plus: Amy’s parenting karma hits hard with her risk-taking son, a fiery Married At First Sight Australia recap (Pink vs Farmer Luke), and this week’s Nailed It / Failed It - including surprise 40th birthday wins and raising “feral” kids who live like chip-packet raccoons.
