This week, Kee and Kelly are having one of those weeks where everything is technically fine… but also absolutely not fine.

Kee has a moment in Pilates that feels bigger than Pilates, Kelly survives a truly cursed medical appointment, and a very bold preschool sickie attempt hits a little too close to home.

Eat Sleep Repeat

Hosted by new mums and besties, Kelly McCarren and Kee Reece, eat sleep repeat is a virtual weekly mother’s group for your ears. It's a judgement and shame-free zone where Kel and Kee give advice and talk to other everyday mums. But mostly it’s a raw, honest, funny and relatable look at being a first time mum, desperately trying to survive.

As Eat Sleep Repeat enters its final few episodes, Kee and Kelly are looking back at where it all began - lockdown lives, new babies, no village, and the hope of becoming the kind of mother’s group they wished they’d had. But this isn’t just a farewell lap. It’s a bigger conversation about identity, friendship, failure, ageing, motherhood, and the strange realisation that you can become a completely different person… and not really miss the old one.

Kelly is back from Bali, barely recovered and armed with the kind of stories that only come from a very big weekend away. Meanwhile, Kee has been feeling the quiet side of freelance life and finds herself unexpectedly emotional about long weekends, little routines and the strange things that make parenting feel magic.

Is This The Secret To Feeling Young Again?

New research says almost 60% of Australian parents are experiencing psychological distress. But for Kee and Kel, the most confronting part isn’t the statistic - it’s how familiar it feels.

This week, they unpack the kind of burnout that doesn’t always look like falling apart. It looks like getting everyone to school, answering emails, remembering the lunchboxes, swallowing the guilt, and wondering why you’re so snappy when you’re trying so hard.  Maybe the problem isn’t that parents aren’t coping, but that they’re being asked to carry too much.
