Lucy & Kel for Breakfast

About Lucy

I’ve spent most of my life behind a microphone - whether on stage, on screen, on TV, on air, or somewhere in between. Because at the heart of it all, I’m someone who loves connecting with people. I was born with a loud laugh, a soft heart, and an unashamed love of all things glittery.

For the past 17 years, I’ve had the joy of waking up Melbourne on 89.9 TheLight each and every morning. It still blows my mind that it’s been that long, and it’s an honour that I  will never take for granted. The best part is I get to do this alongside my husband and co-host Kel (yes, we’re married, that’s another story), and together we’re raising a big, blended family of seven... plus two very spoiled Pomeranians.

Life hasn’t always been smooth. I’ve walked through heartbreak, disappointment, and the kind of deep grief that rewires who you are. But through it all, God has shown up again and again, and that’s why I do this. Because I believe in the power of stories, of human connection and a God who never lets go.

And I can’t wait to keep sharing this wild, wonderful journey with you every single morning. I want you to listen in the mornings and walk away feeling seen, loved, uplifted and encouraged.  (And if I can get a snort laugh out of you… even better.)

About Kel

Radio has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I started in the industry as a teenager and it's taken me all around Australia on commercial radio, but I’ve been at TheLight for 17 years now - and for the past 13 of those years, it’s been my privilege to co-host the Breakfast show at TheLight alongside my wife Lucy (yes, we really do work together and still like each other).

I’ve worn a lot of hats over the years - from Music Director to Drive host to Afternoons - but what’s always mattered most to me is creating radio that makes people feel seen, heard, and valued. That’s the heartbeat of what we do every morning on Lucy and Kel: real stories, laughter, and showing up for each other in the chaos of life.

Off-air, I’m a dad to our blended family, a lover of good coffee, an audio editing nerd, and I like to unwind with a little XBOX time (when Lucy doesn't have me doing renos around the house, that is. Which is always. Will it ever end…).

Radio has run through my blood for over 30 years, and I’ve seen firsthand how God can use even the simplest moment—a song, a story, a shared laugh—to speak to someone right when they need it. That’s what keeps me showing up. At the end of the day, I just want people to feel like they belong.
