It’s time to say goodbye. For now. In the final episode of Eat Sleep Repeat, Kee and Kel are joined by their editor, Madeline, for a little behind-the-scenes goss, the episode that almost didn’t make it to air, and the tiny habits she’s been editing around for years. Then Kee and Kel ask each other the big questions - about friendship, motherhood, confidence, growth, and what they want to leave listeners with after four years in your ears. Thank you for listening, laughing, crying, messaging, and being part of it all. You’re doing it. You’ve got this!

After four years, hundreds of conversations and more than a few opinions that aged terribly, Kee and Kel are looking back at the episodes, guests and listener messages that changed them the most. In this second-last episode of Eat Sleep Repeat, they revisit the conversations that stayed with them, the advice they still use, the topics they never expected to hit so hard, and the moments that made the whole wild ride feel worth it. It’s a love letter to the shitters, the mother’s group so many of us didn’t have, and a reminder that none of us are doing this perfectly - but we’re definitely not doing it alone.

For the final Peak & Pit of the series, Kee and Kel are in a reflective mood - but still very much themselves. There’s a birthday decision that brings up more than expected, a post-holiday realisation that hits later than planned, and one of those rare weeks where life is messy but somehow… fine? Plus, comfort food, a new show, and a Sydney outing worth adding to the list.

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.

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.

This week, Kelly is personally victimised by a stuffed daycare kookaburra, a scrapbook full of suspiciously wholesome family activities, and the creeping fear that maybe everyone else is doing parenting better. Meanwhile, Kee is finding the magic in small domestic wins, from Facebook Marketplace chairs to the kind of cos home moment that makes you feel like you might actually be getting it right.

This week, Kee and Kelly are joined by Lem Zakharia - founder of Bedou, former executive producer of It’s A Lot with Abbie Chatfield, and the creator of the podcast Twice Displaced. Lem’s family story doesn’t fit the neat little boxes we’re used to. She fell in love with her wife Christina, and slowly became a parent to Christina’s two kids -— first from the sidelines, then right in the thick of tantrums, boundaries, bedtime battles and teenage emotional landmines. In this conversation, Lem opens up about step-parenting, queer family life, earning a child’s trust, and the moment she realised being “the other parent” wasn’t something she could claim - it was something she had to build.
