Bringing a little one into the world and raising them is a big thing, right! I think it's fair to say that we generally anticipate that our moms will help support and guide us during the start of our new parenting journey and help share the load a bit. But what about those of us who are isolated and don't have that luxury due to living far away from family, no longer having a mum or being estranged from our family?

Going through this challenging time of your life is tough on your own and this week's guest, clinical psychologist, Melissa Reilly knows all about how this feels! Melissa's mom had passed away years before she had her first child and having her son stirred up a grief process. Melissa's mission is in helping momless moms dealing with motherlessness and in this episode you'll hear her explain:-

• Why it is extremely important that you create your own mom community of people who can help and support you.
• The four crucial people that you need to include in your mom community to ensure you get all the support you need.

AND much more.

So go ahead, my dear mum. Click to listen and get started.
