WE DIDNT HAVE A FIGHT! haha

We've had a sort of intentional break from the podcast and we're back..Chiara has some BIG news, Lorna had a BIG reaction to the news and all was ok again! Welcome back to some wonderful friend therapy. ❤️

The good, the bad and the beautiful of hormones...lots of pms chat. Lots of chat on how the fuck do we see this undulation of all the feels as a good thing. Chiara talks about trying to recover from HA and dishes out a lot of advice she isn't following. 🤣 Oh and menstrual blood is good for your plants!!!

The highs and lows of having multiple children, how they sit it, the mothering struggles and our goals and aims. As well as chat about seeing things from the perspective of our families of origin.

Soooo. The context for this one is that we asked YOU the listeners if there was something you wanted to chat about and lots of the questions were about when shit gets real. Tantrums etc. How to handle them. And Chiara wanted to come in and give ALL the practical help. And Lorna gently and wisely reminded Chiara that actually this probably should be a chat about motherhood intuition and trusting yourself. Which Chiara had a wobbly at. 😂 This is a wholesome and empowering chat. ❤️

What the heck is vulnerability in motherhood. Should we be vulnerable, how? The difference between vulnerability and volatility. The topics that make Chiara uncomfortable: sex, sadness and the fear of getting it all wrong. Lorna's uncomfortable topics: sharing joy and happiness....

Chiara came to this episode feeling a bit ouchy, called out by a book she has been reading that speaks into the current health situation Chiara has got into....which seems to be the result of self sabotage. What the actual fuck....

What the heck is reparenting for us? Why do we need it? How the fuck do we get there?? Some childhood trauma chat, some releasing our parents chat and so much more as always

Soul cpd.

The most delicious conversation about why we're trying to figure out our shit, what that means for us and friendships. We discuss the two sticking points each of us has (hint, Lorna wants all the answers and Chiara wants to know she's getting it right). And a lovely sprinkling of spirituality from two different perspectives.

❤️

Inspired by the fact that Chiara had a rough time that weekend with Anna at a classmates party we debrief and discuss kids parties. Love em? Hate em? Adult parties? Social anxieties. Makeup. Dressing up. Pressures on parents to have kids with big social groups. And finally doing what works for you....is that narcissism??? As always covering a LOT of stuff!!!

The most important subject of what are you drinking! Why? Because as we discovered it is the thing that gives mother's life, coping tools, a numbing moment and energy when you're broken. This was a lovely wholesome and deep chat..standard for us. An hour on tea!
