Jules & Lisa Couch Catch-Up: Morning Chaos, Keeping It Real At Home, Dog Poop Fails, & More!

Some mornings glide, others go completely sideways. In this chatty couch-catch-up, Jules and Lisa talk honest mum-life logistics, why everyone needs a “post drop-off debrief” friend, and the eternal debate: morning people vs night owls. From school-photo emergencies and Apple Watch rings to the great top-sheet divide and a very unfortunate dog-walk incident, this is a real-life episode about giving yourself grace, starting again tomorrow, and finding your rhythm in a world full of health advice and hustle.

What We Cover:

• The “teamate” phone call: why a safe vent after school drop-off keeps you sane
• Morning routine roulette: when one forgotten blazer (or tie) topples the dominoes
• Night owl pride: getting it done at 10pm vs 5:30am and why neither is “better”
• Health overload: weights, Pilates, walking, protein, bloating, perimenopause, and doing what actually works for you
• The permission slip: “This too shall pass” for the good days and the shockers
• Domestic real talk: kids’ spritzes, the top-sheet debate, and the never-ending
  bed/lunch/washing cycle
• Tech & tools: chasing rings, water-bottle loyalty, and why DIY podcast setups are a humbler
  
  

A Few Memorable Moments:

• The $425 lesson in dropping off a tie that was already being worn
• Ronnie the dog, torrential rain, and… a sleeve catastrophe on poo patrol
• Photo-day panic: back-to-daycare with a fresh outfit and emergency braids
• The truth about “perfect days”: you’re one sleep away from either your best or your worst—and that’s normal
  
  

What We’re Watching:

• The Hunting Wives (spicy drama; solo-watch recommended)
• The Summer I Turned Pretty (weekly drop frustrations included)
• Mini-docu binges on Netflix: The Biggest Loser: Fit for TV, Amy Bradley Is
  Missing, Unknown Caller
