September 29, 2023 Episode 40 - Parenting is HARD!
On this episode I talk honestly and openly about my parenting struggles. I am finding that maybe I have been off track, or maybe I am just in a new stage of parenting now that I have two kids. Either way, I am questioning the shit out of myself in every way!

*this is not a parenting podcast... I have NFI what I am actually supposed to be doing! I am just doing what I think makes sense.

I promise my next episode will be a little more chipper! x

April 26, 2023 Episode 34 - Making friends and red flags
On this episode I list a bunch of red flags when it comes to friendships. Becoming a mum can be so isolating and in the earlier years, there is nothing more you need than a circle of supportive people around you. Unfortunately, that is not always what you find when trying to connect with others. Often mums face the opposite in others (and yes, including other mums). So here are some things to look out for.
