"Maternity system is fundamentally broken." It's a headline that understandably caught the attention of parents across the country last week. Following the publication of the landmark maternity report, Louise reflects on her campaigning for safer maternity care, unpacks what the findings really mean, and explains why the appointment of a Maternity Commissioner marks a significant step forward. Despite the alarming headlines, her message is clear: women should come away feeling hopeful, not fearful.

Ryan also opens up about a parenting moment that left him questioning whether he'd handled things the right way. Reflecting on the experience, he shares what he learned about helping children navigate disappointment, the pressure parents put on themselves, and why listening instead of rushing to fix things is often the most powerful approach.

Plus, Louise and Ryan share how putting the 7-7-7 relationship rule into practice is helping them protect quality time together and strengthen their relationship.
