PUMPED Podcast
87 episodes - English - Latest episode: over 1 year ago - ★★★★★ - 27 ratingsWhen it comes to the conversation around Motherhood, pregnancy and birth often take centre stage, but ask any mum and they’ll tell you - it’s after your baby is born that the fun really begins! Hosted by dynamic Sydney-based duo Hayley Flowers and Sophie Lavender, PUMPED is a podcast that explores the challenges of the Fourth Trimester and life thereafter. They unpack the messy love that is Motherhood in a safe, humorous and fun space. From bleeding bum holes, to leaking bladders. This podcast shares it all! PUMPED has given a voice to the often forgotten issues that particularly affect mums including domestic violence, feeding challenges, the battle for legal guardianship, birth trauma and the struggle to conceive. They have created a nurturing and authentic space for mums to laugh, cry, share and be heard by likeminded women in the wild ride that is Motherhood.
