  • 😭😊 crying & smiling ❤️❤️‍🩹

    I have cried in every single episode so far! My favourites are Amanda and Ross (city girl found her country man), Georgie Tunny and Rob Mills (how did you get them to open up about babies?! Can’t wait to see Rob’s stay at home Dad Life) and I bawled my eyes out at the man talking about his dog 🐕 😭. Thanks Tiff. We needed this. Ps Mum and my aunties always loved Women’s Weekly, I feel like we are all together when I listen ❤️
