This week we're joined by the lovely Lisa Quinney, a counsellor and expat. Lisa joins us to chat about the challenges of parenting away from your support network, and her tips to develop strong connections within a new community when you have children. 

This is an amazing chat that would be very relevant to anyone living away from their family, or parents who feel like they could use a bit more support. We also chat about our "inner critic" and tools you can use to lower the volume on intrusive thoughts. 

Having gone through postnatal depression after the birth of her second child, Lisa discovered how important it is to demand the support we need as parents. Lisa empowers parents to compassionately show up for themselves so they can wholeheartedly enjoy parenthood.
