This week, Trish pumps up a fellow powerhouse – her friend Trudy DeSilva. She's a speechie, clinic owner, single mum, and proud daughter of migrant parents. Trudy spills on co-parenting, raising kids who aren’t entitled, and what she does for fun when she’s not running the world. She’s all about showing her kids that cultural ceilings are made to be smashed - and that they can have a go at anything (and dominate while doing it). Real talk, big laughs, and plenty of heart.

This week on Real Zeal, Trish is dragging her husband Tim into the hot seat for a wildly honest convo about brain fog, hormone chaos, and why her uterus is getting evicted. From late-diagnosis ADHD to the “joys” of perimenopause, nothing’s off-limits (not even the awkward stuff). It's messy, funny, a little sweary - and totally on brand.

James Burke is back, and he and Trish are diving headfirst into the chaos of being a grown-up. Who decided what “adulting” even means? Why does it feel like everyone else got the rulebook? And why is it extra spicy (and messy) when your brain works differently? Includes a few rants, side quests and a healthy dose of "stuff it, we're doing our best."

This week on Real Zeal, Trish sits down with Daniel Matteo—a church pastor who doesn’t smell like mothballs or quote Leviticus at dinner parties. That’s right, he's not your typical robe-wearing, incense-swinging, white-haired preacher. He’s a real-deal, down-to-earth, normal guy who just happens to love Jesus and has a killer sense of humour.

They dive into faith, mental health, and why being relatable matters way more than being religious. If you’ve ever thought pastors were all fire and brimstone and zero fun - this episode might just blow your holy socks off.

Tune in for laughs, lightbulb moments, and a refreshingly real take on spirituality.

In this episode, Trish is joined by Angelique Loverso for an unfiltered chat about all things real life and real love. From being backed by good men who fuel their fire, to the unspoken “deathbed race to the end” pact (yep, they plan to outlive everyone), this one’s full of wisdom and wit. They dive into raising brave kids, riding the wild waves of developmental leaps, and the magic of being surrounded by people who believe in your dreams—whether that be in your Sunday finest or your comfy trackies.

It's deep. It's funny. It’s a big hug for your ears. Tune in and feel seen.

He’s back—mic in hand and heart wide open. In part two of Mick Marshall’s story, we go deep. Like late-night-over-chips kind of deep.

We’re talking:
🖤 The dark days (yep, the real gritty stuff)
🛌 The mornings he couldn’t get out of bed
🔥 And the fire that finally gave him his “why”

Mick shares what kept him going when everything said “quit,” and spoiler: it’s not caffeine or clichés. It’s real, raw, and ridiculously inspiring.

So if you’ve ever hit a wall, wanted to give up, or just need proof that rock bottom can still bounce—you need this ep.

Have you ever met someone and immediately thought: I want in on what they’re about? That’s exactly what happened when I met Mick Marshall —a powerhouse advocate for invisible disability, lived experience, and showing up as your whole damn self. In Part One of this raw and incredulous ride, Mick opens up about living with an invisible disability, learning to navigate systems that weren’t built for brains like his, and what happens when you start believing your own story (instead of the one society hands you).

Trish is back—this time with her longtime mate and fellow neurospicy legend, James “Burkie” Burke. They’re diving headfirst into the wild world of ADHD, unpacking what it means to be a man who actually shows feelings (yep, we went there), and raising kids in a house where neurodivergence isn’t hidden—it's embraced, celebrated, and sometimes hilariously chaotic. Plenty of laughs and real talk in this one as they make sense of life, parenting, and the beauty of being wired a little differently.
