Not Another Mummy Podcast

Katie Kirby: The reality of motherhood and social media comparison


Listen Later

After an extended break, we're back for a new season!


Katie Kirby is my guest on this episode. Katie started off blogging at Hurrah For Gin, shining a light on the realities of motherhood at a time when the online world was filled with rose-tinted picture perfect versions of mum life. Since then, she's moved to writing books and her latest series is the Lottie Brooks books, aimed at the tween audience.


We recorded this episode last summer and we talk about Katie being one of the first people online to start talking honestly about being a mum and how we still get sucked into comparing ourselves with other mums online.


Katie tells me about life parenting her tween boys and we chat about the Lottie Brooks books.


Find Katie online here and buy her books here.
