Ever had a day that was great… but completely wiped you out?

In this episode of Couple Goals, we talk about that quiet moment after a big social event where one of you is ready to disappear into silence, and the other is still buzzing. No fight. No drama. Just two very different energy levels trying to coexist.

From baby showers and packed calendars to introvert recovery and extrovert reflection, this is a real conversation about how couples decompress differently and why that doesn’t mean anything is wrong.

If you’ve ever said “I loved it, but I’m exhausted,” this one will feel very familiar.

This week on Couple Goals is absolute chaos in the best way.
Lachie turns up hungover, Amy hits the third trimester at 29 weeks, we debate whether birth classes are worth it, unpack a spicy Reddit relationship story, AND react to Miley Cyrus’ surprise engagement.
Plus… there's a new saliva pregnancy test that blew our minds.

A massive week for us: performing at the Steve Irwin Gala, flying between cities, rehearsals, and building the baby nursery, while also unpacking Australia’s wildest pop-culture moments.

We talk Ariana Grande’s recent red-carpet fan incident, Robert Irwin’s rise on Dancing With The Stars, and a Reddit dilemma: is chronic lateness a legitimate breakup reason?

Expect:
• Relationship insights
• Aussie chaos
• Pop culture breakdowns
• Pregnancy updates
• Plenty of laughs

Thanks for listening and send in your thoughts on today’s Reddit story!

Amy Sheppard & Lachlan Stuart

In this episode, we cover one of Australia’s most shocking recent stories, the tragic case of Arnie the German Shepherd and unpack a wild Reddit dilemma involving secrecy, proposals and a surprising twist.

We also chat about maternity leave as self-employed parents, a Movember fitness challenge, date night at Sam Fender, and why dogs still intimidate Amy.

Planning a baby shower, a baby moon and leaking colostrum on camera… what could possibly go wrong?

In this episode of Couple Goals, Amy and Lachie dive into the chaos of planning a non-traditional joint baby shower, trying to agree on the perfect baby moon, and dealing with the reality of pregnancy including the moment Amy discovers her boobs are already leaking.

They also unpack a spicy Reddit relationship story about a people-pleasing wife who finally sets boundaries, and whether her marriage can survive once she stops being a doormat.

From there, the convo spirals into posting kids online, internet safety, and whether it’s ever really “safe” to share your baby on social media.

Plus: a pop culture detour into Bradley Cooper’s new face, celeb cosmetic surgery, aging gracefully vs “fixing” yourself, and what it really means to grow up (and grow older) online.

If you’re pregnant, planning a baby, in a relationship, or just love honest, funny chats – this one’s for you.

This week’s episode has a bit of everything... pregnancy brain, pop culture, and pure chaos.

We also break down the wild 6/7 trend that’s taking over TikTok and reminisce about the slang we grew up with, fair warning, it’s a generational gap you’ll feel.

And of course, Amy’s Reddit Rabbit Hole segment delivers again… this time with a story about a mum who disappeared for three days without telling her family. Chaos, empathy, and plenty of laughs, just another week in the Couple Goals universe.
