Our guest today is Sophia Cook. Sophia & her husband Simon (Cookie) live in South London with their 2 children 2 year old Alfred and 1 year old Edith. Their house renovation featured on Channel 4’s George Clarke’s Old House, New Home.
Sophia & Simon have been together just over 4 years. In that time they’ve renovated a house with a new baby and a TV crew in tow and in the middle of it all Sophia found out she was pregnant with their daughter – they are exactly a year apart to the day! For a brief moment Sophia had 2 children under 1!
That’s a lot of change & transitioning in 4 years, so Sophia’s perfect to talk to about the challenges of finding space and a new identity as a mum.

Our guest today is Nicola Washington who’s going to talk us through why everything is political, particularly parenting. Parenting is political, no matter how you do it.
If you’re someone who claims to not be political or you feel like you ‘don’t like to talk politics’ and certainly not with your kids then lean in as we chat with Nicola about the fact that we’re all political beings.

Today's guests are Rene Bozier who’s a practicing Private Midwife and homeopath and Nancy Nunn, a Specialist Paediatric Osteopath.
Both Rene and Nancy’s approach wellness holistically, treating individuals as a whole and leaning into intuitive clinical expertise developed through their vast experience of women and babies.
They’re going to help us understand why we should be ‘listening to our bodies’ – a phrase that’s bandied around quite a lot in relation to ‘wellness’… but what exactly does that mean? How do we do that? Why should we?

Anna Mathur’s latest Sunday Times Bestseller, Know Your Worth encourages readers to strip back and challenge the beliefs that the world has taught them so far that make them question whether or not they’re good enough.
It’s estimated that roughly 85% of people worldwide (adults and adolescents) have low self-esteem. Low self-esteem is linked to violence, school drop-out rates, teenage pregnancy, suicide and low academic achievement. In this episode Hollie and Illy discuss with Anna exactly what self-esteem is, what influences it, why it matters to us as mothers and how that might affect our children and also what we can do about it.
