What if living consciously isn’t about fixing yourself—but finally listening to the you that never needed fixing?

In this two-part episode, QuantiMama’s Faark The Shoulds welcomes the wildly wonderful Jillian Rumble-Young from Rainbow OMG. Jillian is a biodynamic farmer, homeschooling mama, musician, plant whisperer, and balm maker extraordinaire—and if she had a business card, it would probably be compostable and smell like calendula.

Together, Jillian and QuantiMama Jodi dive into the fertile terrain of conscious living—not the kind you hashtag, but the kind that’s felt in your bones. Think: talking to your plants, bleeding into the soil, raising kids who can read lunar cycles better than textbooks, and dismantling the factory settings of modern life one seedling, salve, and soul truth at a time.

What if the land knows you by name?
What if parenting is less “expert advice” and more “deep listening, occasional snacks, and a good birth chart”?
What if pruning your trees is also about pruning your life?

This convo is equal parts reverent and disruptive, with new perspectives, deep remembering, and a few epic mic drops. It’s for anyone who suspects their houseplants are judging them—and might be right. BUT, probs not since plants are simply love with leaves.

It's Their Life; Are We Raising Kids to Trust Themselves?

Alright, Quantifolks—balls and all time. When did we start believing that our kids needed to be managed/guided/fixed instead of just trusted?

Somewhere along the way, we stopped seeing our children as whole beings and started treating them like projects—something to manage, shape, or perfect. We, parents, have the best intentions, of course. We want them to be happy, successful, thriving. But here’s the kicker: what if the very act of “guiding” them is steering them away from who they truly are?

A no-holds-barred look at the ways we—often unknowingly—condition our kids out of their truth. We explore the invisible weight of diagnosis culture, the unspoken pressure to fit in, and the ways we accidentally curate compliant adults instead of raising self-trusting, free-thinking humans. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

What if our kids don’t need to be managed, but witnessed?
 What if, instead of control, we embraced collaboration, trust, and fostered deep connection?
 What if the most powerful thing we can do as parents is get out of the way?

We’re unpacking all of it—why trust is the foundation of a thriving child, how to repair it when it’s been shaken, and the simple ways we can create a home where kids feel seen, heard, and empowered. And yes, there’s opportunity for some Bon Jovi karaoke in there too.

Tune in and reimagine what’s possible. Your child’s future isn’t about ticking boxes. It’s about helping them own their life, just as you do yours.

What if the roles we play in our relationships — the hero, the villain, the victim — were keeping us stuck in cycles of disempowerment? 

In this episode of Faark The Shoulds, QuantiPapa McGill and QuantiMama Jodi get right into the heart of the drama triangle and how these roles shape our connections and self-perception. 

Why do we feel the need to fix, blame, or rescue? 

And what happens when we choose not to play those parts?

We explore the power of radical self-responsibility — that fierce and freeing moment when you stop waiting for someone else to save you and step into your own agency. 

How can we hold space for others without rushing in to fix their discomfort? 

What does it take to trust that people are whole enough to find their own way?

Our kids are often some of our greatest teachers in this. Through their frustrations and their triumphs, they shown us the magic of patience, presence, and letting people cycle through their own experiences. And TBH? It’s not always easy. Sometimes the hardest thing is standing back and offering support without stepping in — but that’s where growth happens.

This episode is a reflection on the stories we tell ourselves, the roles we assign to others, and the deep work of staying curious and compassionate. So, which role do you slip into most often? And what would it take to step out of the triangle entirely? Join us for this rich and real conversation — we promise, you’ll leave with plenty to ponder.

Alright, Quantifolks—it's time to look past the oxymoronic request to prove to a computer that you're not a computer (thanks G00gle Capture!!) and dive head first into the wonderous/frighteningly-fast/potentially-quite-concerning world of AI.

 In this episode, QuantiMama Jodi and QuantiMama Kerri dive into the fast-moving, sometimes overwhelming, but ultimately mind-blowing world of AI. 

How do we keep our frequency high while navigating this digital revolution? 

Can AI be a partner in creativity, or are we just outsourcing our magic? 

And what does it mean for our kids’ education when tech like this is at their fingertips?

We’re not here for fear—this is about empowerment. 

Can we use AI with intention, stay in the driver’s seat, and teach our kids to do the same? 

What opportunities could open up when we approach AI with curiosity and discernment? 

How do we make sure they stay anchored in their own truth while playing in this evolving space?

Join us as we unpack these questions, and offer a big ol' reframe on technology and education. Whether you’re a tech enthusiast, a total skeptic, or somewhere in between, this convo will leave you inspired, empowered, and possibly ready to co-create with intention.

Oh, the postpartum period—the time when everything feels impossibly full (your heart, your hands, and let’s be frank, your boobs). In this episode, we’re cracking open what it really takes to nurture yourself after birth—not the Insta-perfect, "bounce-back" myth, but the slow, sacred, and unapologetic process of receiving.

Why do so many of us resist rest, help, and even our own innate wisdom? What would it look like to give ourselves the same grace we’d offer to someone we love? And how do we shift from simply surviving postpartum to thriving in connection and recovery?

Joined by the delightful Jennifer Cruise from Nurturing Connections with Jen, we unpack:

• Why you can’t pour from an empty cup (or give from your cup at all—hello, saucer life)
• How to build your village and set boundaries with love
• What it means to honour your identity as a mum while still holding onto the parts of yourself that make you you

How can you embrace rest without feeling like you’re losing yourself in the process?
What’s stopping you from asking for or accepting the help you deserve?
Could prioritising your own well-being now be the greatest gift you give your child in the long term?

This is your permission slip to fark the checklists, fark the societal noise, and embrace real recovery, presence, and ease. Because when you care for yourself, you’re not just filling your cup—you’re reshaping how we parent, live, and connect as a whole.

Whether you’re a mum, a soon-to-be parent, or someone holding space for loved ones navigating this wild season of life, this episode is for you. So grab a cuppa (or better yet, let someone make you one!) and join us as we explore the radical, revolutionary act of receiving.

Oh, the joys of parenting when you're running on three hours of sleep and yesterday’s coffee. In this episode, we’re peeling back the layers of what it really means to lead by example—not the Instagram-worthy, perfectly curated version, but the raw, messy, beautifully human one.

How do we reconcile our own, often slightly unkept, growth with the desire to guide our children toward resilience, authenticity, and joy?

We dive into the imperfect art of "showing up". Parenting isn’t about flawless execution (thank fark)—it’s about presence. It’s about letting your kids witness your mistakes and the ways you learn from them. 

When we embrace our own humanness, what are we teaching them about theirs?

Parenting isn’t just about raising kids; it’s a mirror reflecting back the parts of ourselves we often overlook. If you’ve ever felt like the wheels are falling off the parenting wagon or questioned how to inspire your kids when you feel far from inspirational, this one’s for you. It’s a love letter to imperfect parents everywhere—reminding you that being real, vulnerable, and willing to grow is the ultimate example.

So grab a cuppa (or whatever keeps you grounded) and join us as we explore how being the example isn’t about being perfect—it’s about being real, agile, and deeply committed to the experience.

Labels – they’re everywhere. 

But have you ever stopped to wonder what they’re really doing? 

Are they offering clarity, or boxing us in? 

This episode, QuantiMama Jodi is joined by the brilliant Katy, Neural Integration Systems practitioner and Homeopathist to unpack the complex terrain of long-term labels. 

How do they shape our perceptions of our children? 

How do they influence the stories we tell ourselves about who they are and who they might become? 

And, perhaps most importantly, how do we navigate the grief and growth that come with them?

In this episode, we ask the big questions: Are labels helpful tools or hidden traps? Can we reframe them to serve us rather than limit us? And how do we balance acceptance with hope for the future? With raw honesty and a touch of humour, this conversation explores moments of heartbreak, unexpected joys, and the nuanced process of redefining what labels mean for children, parents, and the broader narrative of identity.

If you’ve ever found yourself grappling with a diagnosis, a label, or even just the stories that swirl around parenting, this one’s for you. Let’s get curious together and see what’s waiting beyond the labels.

What does it mean to truly rock the holiday season? Maybe it’s embracing the mess, or maybe it’s about finally finding a little stillness amidst the chaos. Whatever it looks like for you, we’re here to explore what happens when we let go of the need to “do it all” and instead connect with what really matters.

In this episode, QuantiMama Jodi and QuantiMama Kerri meander through the subtle (and not-so-subtle) pressures of the season, from the cultural addiction to busyness to the quiet rebellion of saying “no” to the noise. Why do we equate doing with being? And what might shift if we paused to notice the moments in between?

What invisible work goes unnoticed in your life? 

What kind of connection feels most nourishing right now? 

And how might this season look if we chose meaning over momentum?

There are no neat answers here—just space to explore, reflect, and maybe even laugh at the glorious imperfection of it all. So grab a cuppa, take a breath, and join us for this conversation about the season, the self, and everything in between.

You know that moment when you realise parenting isn’t a “season” but a lifetime membership with no exit clause and really, really small fine print you unhelpfully only lightly skimmed? Yep, same.

This podcast ep, witnesses QuantiPapa McGill and QuantiMama Jodi diving headfirst into Compound Living—where type-A personalities, crunchy parenting, and four kids under one roof get messy together. A place where the tension of wanting to “do all the things” bumps up against also just wanting to lie down for 5 minutes or more improbably, toilet, in peace. A place where we wrestle with the guilt, the grind, and the pervasive societal expectations that tell success is demonstrated by productivity and big screen TVs.

• How do we value the invisible work of parenting when it feels so universally thankless and repetitive?
• What shifts in us and our kids when we stop trying to control our kids’ emotions and instead hold space for them?
• And how do we untangle ourselves from the need for permission to rest, reset, or simply say, “This is hard.”

This episode touches on the quiet wisdom of surrender—the kind that doesn’t mean giving up but instead choosing to be present with what truly matters; embracing our kids’ natural curiosity (even when it means pulling apart sewing machines) and why the best moments of parenting often happen when we let go of gifted societal perceptions of perfection.

For anyone feeling stretched thin, stuck in the grind, or questioning if they’re “doing enough,” Jodi & McGill offer ‘permission’ (not that you need it, but that’s a whooollllleee other conversation) to rethink it all. This parenting gig—this unwitnessed, messy, relentless, thoroughly common ‘work’ of raising conscious, thoughtful, harmonious humans—shapes the world more than we realise. And to be honest, the world desperately needs them. 

Tune in, get curious, lighten your mind, and maybe shift gifted perspectives because in the chaos of Living in the Compound, there’s plenty of room for life-changing memories, conscious connection, and at least a few ‘fark it’ moments along the way.
