Someone in the Straight and Curly Facebook group wanted to know what paths Carly and Kelly travelled after finishing high school and how they both ended up becoming writers. 

As it turns out, their paths were very different and this episode takes listeners (and the girls!) on an interesting trip down memory lane.  

Kelly started out working in the sport and recreation industry. 

Carly’s first job was as a drama teacher. 

How did they both get from those places to where they are today? You’ll have to listen in to find out more

We tackle listener problems: 074

For most of Kelly’s life, she’s been a dedicated over-committer, completely addicted to watching people’s faces light up when she said ‘Yes’ to them. As with everything, she had to learn the hard way to say No and actually spent a whole year (2012 to be specific) practising it. 

Carly, as you’ll know from previous episodes, hates saying No to any work that is on offer, and she has huge FOMO (fear of missing out) too. She would rather than lie than ever tell someone No! 

In this episode Kelly shares all the techniques she learnt in her Year of Saying No, and tries to give Carly and few more tools to do the same.

How to say no: 073

This episode comes straight out of one of the many amazing discussions that occur in the Straight and Curly Facebook group.  

Laura wants to get up early but when her alarm goes off each morning, says she physically can’t get out of bed. She asked the group for advice and there were so many great ideas shared, we had to turn it into a podcast. 

Carly books non-refundable exercise classes. 

Kelly thinks Laura needs to change the story she is telling herself when the alarm goes off. 

And no less than 15 other group members had tips of their own to share.
