Episode 8 is here and wowee… we can’t quite believe it!

This week on Recovering Idiots, we’re joined by someone very special to us , the incredible Liz Grant.

Liz was instrumental when we first started our businesses. She backed us, challenged us, believed in us (sometimes more than we believed in ourselves), and brought that signature out-of-the-box thinking we absolutely love her for.

In this episode we dive into burnout, what it can look like, how sneaky it can be, and why so many of us push through it instead of listening to the warning signs. We also talk about gratitude (not the fluffy kind! The grounding, perspective-shifting kind)… and yes, somehow we end up talking about ponies too 🐴

We’re so grateful for Liz — and we think you’ll see why.

Go give Episode 8 a listen. And as always, thanks for being part of this wild, healing, slightly chaotic ride with us.

Recovering Idiots – Episode 7 Men's Group

This episode, we sit down with Paul Buchanan — a local legend who saw a gap and decided to do something about it.

Paul created a men’s group right here in our community, offering a space where men can talk openly about life’s challenges, mental health, pressure, identity, and everything in between. No fixing. No pretending. Just real conversations.

Paul’s men’s group is held at the Port Fairy Community House every 3rd Tuesday of the month at 7pm.

Because maybe “recovering idiots” is just another way of saying… we’re learning how to talk.

This week on Recovering Idiots, we’re joined by Sherri from Wool Grow Australia. Sherri shares the real story behind building a start-up — the pressure, the self-doubt, and the mental load that often goes unseen. We talk openly about the challenges she’s faced and the strategies she’s used to support her own mental health while growing a business. A raw, thoughtful conversation about resilience, balance, and keeping yourself intact while chasing big ideas.
