This week on House of Coffee & Chaos, we’re chatting with Tomas — a feminist dad of two wonderful girls, who’s deep in the parenting trenches and running mainly on caffeine and good intentions. From wild school-morning chaos to navigating pregnancy as a partner ( the none-pregnant one) and realising empathy is about as close as you’ll ever get, Tomas shares the funny, messy, and poignant heartfelt lessons fatherhood has thrown his way. Expect laughs, real talk, and plenty of “yep, same” moments.

☕️ Grab a coffee, hide in the pantry, and press play.

This week we’re joined by Kate — mum, business brain, and the genius behind the Playtime Planner App (aka the thing that might finally stop us doom scrolling for activities then giving up)

We chat about how the app was born straight out of the trenches of motherhood — think: snack negotiations, Google calendars on life support, and the eternal question: “Wait… whats the plan with the kids today?

Kate spills on how she went from juggling work + family life, to creating a tool that helps parents find playareas / activities, and kids events without parents losing time & their minds. We get into the chaos, the community, and how tech can actually make mum-life smoother instead of adding another ping to the mental load.

Expect laughs, chaos, some surprisingly useful tips, and a whole lot of solidarity for anyone who’s just trying to make it out of the house in one piece!

Listen wherever you get your podcasts — preferably with coffee or wine in hand. ☕

Welcome to 2026: fuelled by cold coffee, surviving Elf on the Shelf, and absolutely not doing a New Year detox (unless caffeine counts as juice). From last-minute battery hunts to building trampolines in the dark, this episode is pure festive survival. BUT plot twist — we’re kicking off the year with a TOTAL rebrand, big energy, exciting new guests, and even more chaos ahead. Same mums, same mess… brand new era. If your life feels loud, messy, and wildly caffeinated — welcome home. ☕🔥

If December feels like a full-time job you didn’t apply for, this one’s for you. In this episode, we unpack the absolute madness of the Christmas lead-up — juggling school events, last-minute shopping, secret Santa admin, and somehow remembering to move the Elf on the Shelf at midnight. It’s a funny, honest take on how mums somehow fit it all in, even when we’re running on caffeine, leftovers, and pure Christmas adrenaline. Expect laughs, relatable chaos, and the comforting reminder that none of us are doing this perfectly just making messy and beautiful memories.

Is screen time a modern parenting saviour, a silent saboteur, or just another tool we’re all trying to use wisely? In this episode, we dive into the myths, guilt, benefits, and real-life chaos around kids and screens. From educational apps to “please-just-give-me-five-minutes” moments, we unpack what screen time actually means for families today — without judgement, just honesty.

Welcome to the podcast where we peel back the curtain on life with two little humans—because no one warned us how wild the upgrade really is. From sibling rivalry and mum-guilt whiplash to those heart-melting moments that hit you out of nowhere, this is a space for honest chats, hilarious stories, and the kind of solidarity only parents in the trenches truly understand.

Whether you’re pregnant with your second, deep in the chaos, or just here for the comedy, pull up a pram, pour the cold coffee, and join us as we unpack the beautifully chaotic leap from one child to two.

“ - why mums are going from Employee to Employer and all in between!

Motherhood can spark a whole new kind of ambition — but turning that spark into a business? That’s no walk in the park. This episode dives into why mums start their own ventures, the realities they face, and how they’re redefining what success looks like.

Trick-or-treat, but make it caffeine / wine -fuelled. This week, we open the doors to our very own 'haunted' house — complete with endless chocolate, overtired kids, and coffee strong enough to wake the dead. It’s a mum-life Halloween special full of chaos, sugar highs, and epic halloween decoration fails!

This week we’re diving into DIY Aesthetics & Anaesthetics — because nothing says “self-care” like questionable home DIY and a side of gossip that’ll numb you faster than lidocaine - pour yourself that glass of vino and ENJOY from the comfort of your own DIY home :)
