Trish Johns is a mum, a straight shooter, and a woman with quiet strength and a wicked sense of humour.

She grew up pumping petrol at the local servo in Newcastle, was the spirited one in her massive Italian family, and somehow ended up marrying Matty Johns despite turning him down the first time.

Trish opens up about raising Cooper and Jack (and what it’s like having them move back home as adults), the chaos of parenting two very different boys, and her breast cancer diagnosis. She shares why she didn’t tell the boys straight away, how she got through two surgeries, and why she wants women to stop waiting and get checked early.

Two Doting Dads is a podcast series that follows the parenting escapades of two good mates, Matty J and Ash Wicks. Like all good modern relationships, they met on Instagram and instantly bonded over the fact that they were both sleep-deprived Dads doing their best to dote over their two children. They share a very laid-back style to parenting, they don't pretend to be experts and they celebrate every single parenting mishap (which there are plenty). If you're listening for parenting advice, you've come to the wrong podcast.
