You might remember when your parents tried to speak to you about The Birds and The Bees. Or they left a book about puberty for you on your bed one day. Maybe they left a box of pads in the bathroom? Today we speak to Em from Pippin Girl about how to have the awkward chats with our kids about puberty, sex, consent, relationships and more - and do it a little better than how our parents might have done it! We discuss…

Matrescence. You might have never heard of it or maybe you’ve seen it doing the rounds on social media lately. It’s actually the biggest transition any human will go through in life and it’s reserved specifically for mothers. So, if it’s so massive… why is it so unknown? We speak to Claire Tonti, matrescence activist, filmmaker, singer and songwriter, to learn more. We say it often, but this really is a must-listen for everyone, mother or not! 

We discuss…
