Ready or Not

Zoë Foster Blake: "When you say no to them, you're saying yes to you" | Witching Hour


Listen Later

Our friends, there's plenty of laughs and just a few tears today, so buckle in.

Today on Witching Hour:

  • 'What Zoë Foster Blake taught me about how to say no, and why it matters.' This is a brilliant piece by upcoming Ready or Not guest Clare Stephens and we think it’s fair to say that every single mother could be better at saying no in some capacity.
  • And, are we REALLY being honest about how we’re feeling? What’s too negative? What feels out of touch and ungrateful? What is relatable? Recently, Loz shared a story with Lu about how she felt when Xave wasn’t sleeping, so we wanted to open up about our struggles when we've been in the trenches.
  • And we unpack one of our hottest polls to date – all about breastfeeding!
  • Extended show notes: 22 anonymous mothers share their breastfeeding challenges.
