  • Our Sleep Training Journey So Far
    Our sleep training journey hasn't been easy and to be honest, I use the word 'training' very lightly as we didn't really train him as such. I personally didn't want to pressure him or myself into it and instead Ben and I let Koa progress naturally at his own pace. There were many times that we almost went against the book and we very much did things our own way and what works for us. But that also meant there were many times we felt we were doing something wrong and it created a lot of stress and tension that really didn't need to be there. So I'm hoping that by me sharing our journey with you, it might help you to take the pressure off yourself a little bit and help you to not feel alone if your sleep journey is similar to ours.

  • Life Update & Feeling Invincible As A Mum

    As I haven't recorded a podcast in a while I just wanted to share where I've been and what's been going on - a little life update.


    Things aren't always what they seem and we never know what someone is truly going through but I wanted to give it a good go and share my honest & raw feelings with you so that you don't feel alone if you're in the same situation as me. To me, that's almost one of the worst feelings, to feel like you're going through something alone, so I wanted to make sure that I share my story to help those of you who are feeling the emotional and mental health effects of this pandemic too.


    I also talk about how my mind-set changed once I had Koa and how it changed for the better and how that's helping me navigate through this time.

  • Physical & Mental Wellbeing As A Mum

    Looking after yourself as a mum is so important so that you're able to give your full self to your little bubba or bubbas! Looking after your wellbeing is actually probably the most selfless thing you can do and it includes your physical as well as your mental wellbeing.


    In this episode I go through how I used to look after myself pre Koa and how I've adapted my routine now I'm a mum - Plus...I share some tips on how you can start looking after yourself more as well.

  • My Story - Getting Pregnant

    Hi guys,


    So I thought since I talk about 'mum life', it only seems fitting that I share my story of my journey to becoming a mother. It wasn't an easy journey for me - more so mentally and emotionally than anything else. I hope that by sharing this it helps you in some way if this is something you've gone through, are going through or simply want to know more to support someone you know who is experiencing a similar situation.

  • Getting Real - Anxiety Talk
    This is a raw and real episode, talking you through how I'm feeling today and sharing my anxieties, worries and insecurities with you as I go on my daily walk. This felt like a bit of a therapy session in a way but I wanted to share how I was feeling in case it helps just one other person to not feel so alone. We all go through tough times and with all the uncertainty in the world at the moment, it's no wonder that we all feel a bit topsy turvy. Here's how I've been feeling and I hope that these rambles help in some way.

  • Lockdown & Separation Anxiety

    Separation anxiety isn't just for our bubbas!


    I've also started experiencing it too - trust me, it came as a surprise to realise that although I was desperate to have a bit of an 'escape' from the responsibility for a couple of hours, I was also terrified to leave him and it filled me with anxiety that seeped into every other area of my life!


    I also talk about life in lockdown and what I'm afraid of.


    Hope these thoughts & feelings help you not to feel too alone in this scary world right now!

  • Comparisons & Expectations Of Motherhood

    Welcome to episode 2 of the podcast!


    I had a lovely chat with a good friend of mine this afternoon and wanted to share some of the musings that came up during our conversation. We spoke about how easy it is to compare journeys of motherhood, pregnancy and even postpartum as well as the expectations that we may have going into motherhood - right from pregnancy through to after birth.


    I hope that you find this relatable and that it may help you in some way!
