Everyone asks you what pram you’re buying, what hospital you’re going to, and if you’ve packed your bag.
But no one asks you the real questions before you become a mum, the ones that will shape your identity, your relationships, your career, and your mental health.
In this raw and reflective 150th episode, I’m sharing the real questions I wish I had asked before I became a mum. These are the conversations no one prepares you for, but every woman deserves to have.
If you're navigating the juggle, about to step into motherhood, or simply want to feel seen and heard, this episode is for you.
From career ambitions and the mental load to the myth of balance and the messy beauty of mum life, I reflect on what I have learned and unlearned in my evolution from a driven professional to a working mum with perspective.
Whether you're a mum-to-be, new mum, or seasoned in the juggle, this episode offers a comforting reminder that it’s okay to evolve — and that version 2.0 might just be stronger than you imagined.
