Author: Lucy & Nikki October 3, 2021 Duration: 58:08

Hey Punters, in today's episode we chat to the very inspiring Maddy- the sister of Alexa Leary, who had a horrific bike accident almost 3 months ago whilst training. In awe of how incredibly strong and resilient her little sister is and defying all the odds to stay alive, Maddy created the 'Move For Lex' Instagram to share her story and spread the message. What started out as a little project to keep her focused on something positive, has since gone viral and has raised over $80k for the Royal Brisbane Hospital to help families going through a similar experience. This family shows such incredible strength supporting each other on this crazy rollercoaster and Maddy does an amazing job at sharing their story! Get behind it bby's! #moveforlex

Ever wondered what happens when two friends building a fashion label decide to hit record? That’s the spirit of Happy Hour with Lucy & Nikki. Lucy and Nikki, the forces behind the popular @lucy_and_nikki_ persona and their brand Jagger & Stone, pull up a virtual barstool for conversations that feel like a late-night catch-up with your most honest friends. This podcast is a direct line into their world, where the glitter of launching a business meets the gritty reality of daily life. You’ll hear the unvarnished truth about entrepreneurship-the exciting wins and the stressful hurdles-alongside personal tales about navigating relationships and recounting those unforgettable, wild party stories that become legend. More than anything, they dive into all the messy, confusing, and hilarious topics that dominate your thoughts in your twenties. It’s a blend of society, culture, fashion, and art, filtered through a lens of genuine friendship and brutal honesty. Tuning in feels less like listening to a produced show and more like being part of the conversation, where nothing is off-limits and everything is served with a side of relatable humor. For anyone building a creative life, figuring themselves out, or just needing a dose of real talk, this podcast offers a refreshingly authentic escape.
