In this solo episode I riff about the ups and downs of motherhood, and my personal experience as a (mostly) work at home mum.

In this episode:

Being a mum is amazing, and it's also hardThe impact of parenthood on my friendships and relationshipsHow the Mother and the Warrior archetypes are one and the sameMy experiences with extended breastfeeding, tandem breastfeeding and co-sleepingThe insane expectations and judgements placed on mums, whether you’re a stay at home, a working mum or somewhere in betweenEarth mamas VS Creative Rainbow mamasHow it takes a village. And even then it's not easy.
