I absolutely loved this conversation! SO many times I was like yessss! Like my heart just saw Mandy and her experience like it could have been my own! 

Mandy, like so many mums, felt like she was the keeper of all things in her family. She didn't want anyone else to be inconvenienced or tired or sad and so set about making sure all the things were done! It can be hard to realise that you can't actually maintain that kind of pressure on yourself. 

Mandy is now a postnatal Doula and like me is using her own early mothering experience to help other mothers walk an easier path than she did. 

We were kindred spirits and i hope you can hear how much fun we had chatting together!

If you are looking for support postnatally and you are in Western Australia then find Mandy at Nest Postpartum on Facebook and @nest_postpartum on Instagram.

Thanks Mandy!!! It was a blast.
