SPECIAL GUEST Gabriella Pomare Divorce Lawyer & Author of The Collaborative Co-ParentHost of the Podcast Before It Breaks 🌐 Website: https://gabriellapomare.com/🎙️ Podcast: https://gabriellapomare.com/podcast⚖️ Family Law Profile: https://www.thenortonlawgroup.com.au/sydney-family-lawyer-gabriella-arvanitis SUMMARY What really causes relationships to break down? And is staying together for the kids always the right choice? In this special Chris & Amy Podcast episode, Amy Gerard and Chris Page sit down with leading divorce lawyer, author and podcast host Gabriella Pomare for an honest conversation about modern relationships, separation and the realities of co-parenting after a breakup. Drawing on years of experience helping families navigate some of life's most challenging moments, Gabriella shares her insights into why marriages end, the growing phenomenon of "silent divorce" and the common warning signs couples often ignore. She explains how resentment, poor communication and changing expectations can slowly erode even the strongest relationships. The discussion explores whether staying together for the children is always the best option, the impact separation can have on families, and how parents can work towards healthier co-parenting arrangements when relationships do come to an end. Gabriella also tackles misconceptions around family law, custody and what really matters when decisions are made in the best interests of children. Along the way, Amy and Chris ask some of the questions they couldn't fit into the radio show, leading to candid stories, surprising insights and practical advice for anyone navigating relationships, marriage or separation. Whether you're in a long-term relationship, co-parenting, or simply curious about what keeps couples together, Gabriella offers a thoughtful and refreshing perspective on love, conflict and putting children first. ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 – Gabriella Pomare Joins The Podcast 00:50 – Are Divorce Rates Really Increasing? 01:15 – Why Women Are More Likely To Leave Relationships 03:00 – The Biggest Misconceptions About Divorce 04:30 – The Pettiest Reasons Couples Break Up 05:20 – The Rise Of The “Silent Divorce” 06:20 – Is Social Media Damaging Relationships? 06:45 – The Questions They Couldn't Ask On-Air 07:00 – Weird Relationship Secrets & Divorce Confessions 08:15 – The Most Ridiculous Courtroom Fights 09:20 – Gabriella's Own Divorce Journey 10:30 – Co-Parenting Without Conflict 12:15 – Should You Stay Together For The Kids? 14:25 – Children, Family Court & Custody Myths 16:55 – What Family Courts Really Care About 17:40 – Gabriella's Final Advice For Couples #️⃣ Hashtags #ChrisAndAmy #AmyGerard #GabriellaPomare #DivorcePodcast #Relationships #MarriageAdvice #CoParenting #FamilyLaw #ModernRelationships #ParentingPodcast #AustralianPodcast #SeparationSupport #RelationshipAdvice #BeforeItBreaks #ChrisAndAmyPodcast 🔗 Hosts Amy Gerard🌐 www.amygerard.com.au📸 @amy.gerard Chris Page📸 @chris_page83 Special Guest – Gabriella Pomare🎙️ Host of Before It Breaks📖 Author of The Collaborative Co-Parent Executive Producer – Mathew Eggleston📧 [email protected]📸 @eggoau on InstagramSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When should parents start talking to their kids about sex, puberty, consent and online safety? According to parenting expert Gen Muir, the answer is simple: yesterday. In this special Chris & Amy Podcast episode, Gen joins Amy Gerard and Chris Page for an honest, practical and judgment-free conversation about one of parenting’s most uncomfortable topics. Gen explains why the traditional “birds and bees talk” often fails, why ongoing conversations are far more effective, and how parents can create an environment where kids feel safe asking difficult questions. The discussion explores the realities of raising children in a digital world, including the shockingly young age many kids are first exposed to pornography, the impact it can have on developing relationships, and how parents can help children navigate consent, body education and healthy relationships. Gen also shares her own parenting experiences, discusses how families can approach conversations around IVF, donors and different family structures, and offers practical advice for becoming what she calls an “askable parent” someone children trust when they need guidance most. If you've ever wondered whether you're having the right conversations with your kids, this episode is essential listening. ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 – Why This Is A Conversation Every Parent Needs To Have 01:00 – Gen Muir’s Famous Advice: “You’re Already Too Late” 04:00 – Why The One Big Birds & Bees Talk Doesn't Work 05:00 – How Amy, Chris & Gen Learned About Sex Growing Up 07:00 – Talking To Kids About Different Ways Families Are Created 08:45 – Amy’s Son Discovers Where Babies Really Come From 10:20 – The Best Way To Start Difficult Conversations With Kids 11:15 – The Alarming Reality Of Children's Exposure To Pornography 13:20 – How Parents Can Become “Askable” 14:20 – Devices, Internet Access & Protecting Kids Online 15:15 – Teaching Consent From A Young Age 17:00 – How Porn Can Shape Unrealistic Expectations About Relationships 18:05 – Gen’s Final Advice For Nervous Parents #️⃣ Hashtags #ChrisAndAmy #AmyGerard #GenMuir #ParentingPodcast #BirdsAndBees #ParentingAdvice #ConsentEducation #OnlineSafety #DigitalParenting #RaisingKids #FamilyLife #AustralianPodcast #ModernParenting #HealthyRelationships #ChrisAndAmyPodcast 🔗 Hosts Amy Gerard🌐 www.amygerard.com.au📸 @amy.gerard Chris Page📸 @chris_page83 Special Guest – Gen Muir📸 @connectedparentingau Executive Producer – Mathew Eggleston📧 [email protected]📸 @eggoau See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Christmas chaos officially hits peak level. Amy opens up about total end-of-year burnout — juggling school holidays, work pressure, kids’ birthdays, presents, teachers, family logistics and the mental load that never switches off. The pair vent about everything they hate at Christmas (elves, pudding, forced church trips and bonbons), before spiralling into a rant about cheeky restaurants adding “suggested” tips in Australia. The Facebook Mums Group sparks outrage when one brutally honest mum admits she tells her kids the full truth at Christmas — no magic, no lies — and Chris & Amy are absolutely not having it. Plus, Amy shares shock landscaping quotes, the “wanker tax,” and why women get charged more, before the show wraps with a new favourite game: running to the savage Instagram comments on a viral haircut disaster.

Chris & Amy acknowledging the Bondi tragedy before shifting gears into comfort viewing, Christmas chaos and classic Chris & Amy energy. Amy leads the charge on festive vibes, Christmas movies, and the very real mental load mums are carrying as December ramps up. The show’s new “Around the World” segment delivers pure chaos — from the world’s fastest garden shed in the UK, to Turkey ruling that liking thirst traps can be grounds for divorce, to a Scottish darts player hospitalised after a spectacularly unhinged meltdown. Amy then opens up about end-of-year burnout, sibling warfare, and her boys choosing violence before breakfast, before sharing a chaotic but joyful girls’ Christmas lunch that involved R&B, questionable dancing and zero regrets. The episode wraps with parenting guilt, outsourcing “core” mum and dad jobs, and a brutally honest Nailed It / Failed It — including Amy admitting she swore at her kids and Chris losing an illegal vape somewhere in the house.

It’s a big Sunday with Chris & Amy diving straight into Christmas chaos - from the kids counting down “six–seven weekend” to the stress of Bad Santa gift swaps and tea-towel-heavy presents. Amy opens up about end-of-year burnout and why every mum in Australia is one school drop-off away from rocking in a dark corner. Chris argues remote work and the anti-alcohol movement have broken young people, leading the pair into a debate about social isolation, courage juice, and memories made in shopping trolleys. The show spirals into the new under-16 social media ban, how teens will cope without Snapchat, and why Amy is telling her kids the police will show up if they watch YouTube. Then it’s a wild detour into a 79-year-old UK aristocrat advertising for a wife (must not be a Scorpio, must run two castles, must provide two male heirs… casual). Finally, the Facebook Mums Group steps up with the week’s dilemma: Is posting your kid’s face online a problem? Amy weighs in, Chris threatens kidnappers, and we wrap with Lady Gaga ticket giveaways.
