Shaylee & Rob for the Drive Home

Mother’s Day is coming up soon and we’re celebrating in style. You could be part of Ladies of TheLight High Tea by nominating someone.

This week, Shaylee shared something deeply personal: a piece she wrote herself, raw and honest, about what her first year of motherhood truly looked like.

This week on 89.9 TheLight, Rob and Ash unpacked what really brings lasting joy — and it may be simpler than we think. Reflecting on a recent Herald Sun article, they explored why chasing happiness can backfire and why a full life includes both joy and struggle. From shared experiences and volunteering to prioritising sleep and noticing life’s small delights, the conversation reminded us that gratitude and connection are often the true keys to happiness. Tune in to Rob & Ash weekdays 3–6pm on 89.9 TheLight 💛

Only 30% of Australians know their neighbours’ names — and that’s just names, not real connection. A viral story from Sydney shows why: a man frustrated by his neighbour’s overgrown lawn asked online, but the real question became, why not knock on the door and find out what’s going on?

Rob and Ash discovered something simple about love — couples who game together are nearly twice as happy.

From team energy to switching off and bringing the fun back, the real takeaway? Make space for joy at home.

Mornings can feel like a race against the clock — lost shoes, unfinished breakfast, and last-minute surprises. Getting kids to school on time sounds simple, but for many families, it’s anything but.
