We are thrilled to welcome the queen of budgeting and finance, Gemma Bird, to the podcast! Known for her brilliant, no-nonsense money-saving tips, Gemma joins Louise and Hannah to discuss the financial squeeze on parents, teaching kids the value of money, and the honest anxiety that comes with motherhood.

Gemma shares the hilarious moment her son Brody asked for a Bugatti, proving that kids truly have no concept of money! She also discusses how hard she worked, starting in an estate agent, to achieve her success and why it's vital to value that £10 note.

We debate the "Mummy Tax" and why we should teach kids to work for money (Hannah used to get 20p for cleaning the bathroom!) 

She shares the completely different experiences of her first traumatic birth (where her husband kept falling asleep) versus her planned C-section.

We discuss the importance of finding those small, necessary treats, like Gemma's daily coffee, and why we shouldn't judge other mums for their choices, whether it's co-sleeping or C-sections.

It's an episode packed with brilliant tips, hilarious stories, and the honesty all parents need to hear!
