From Teacher to Sexologist: Introducing Producer Kiki What exactly is a sexologist - and why would someone leave a stable career to become one? In this episode, Flick formally welcomes In Deep’s newest team member, Producer Kiki, to share her story of walking away from a steady job as an English teacher to pursue sexology- a field that’s about MUCH more than just sex. We dive into what sexology really is, why education around consent, pleasure and respect matters more than ever, and what it’s like to start over in your thirties when the world expects you to play it safe. Plus: running in the rain, falling down the stairs, Robert Irwin’s Bonds campaign, and the open letter Kiara wrote to her mum about rebuilding a life on her own terms.
In this inspiring follow-up episode, Flick and Laura sit down with two powerhouse athletes - Johanne Defay, currently on maternity leave from the WSL tour, and Ironwoman Jordan Mercer, who's navigated pregnancy, birth, and an elite return to sport — twice.
Laura & Flick sit down with Producer Kiki to unpack the question that follows so many women through life: Do you want kids?

The question on everyone’s lips is finally answered: Is Flick still married? After tying the knot just two years ago, Flick opens up about her separation—and it’s not the story you’re expecting.
