Flora and Cath talked about Flora's path to motherhood, her fertility journey, what she learnt about creativity growing up, how she lost and regained connection to her creativity. We talked about creativity, the inner critic and motherhood and Flora shared how baking nourished her on her motherhood journey and much more!
