Show Notes

PLEASE VOTE FOR US FOR LISTENER'S CHOICE AWARD AT THE NZ PODCAST AWARDS 2025!!! Click here! No intro from me today because there was no housekeeping! I'm still alive and well, don't panic! The podcast gods have blessed us because Sinead Corcoran is back for part 2 of her episode! This time she is answering episodes 2-5. If you haven't listened to part 1, head back and listen to it. Her story isn't all sunshine and rainbows and laughs, but this episode is definitely the laughs part of her story. She had me giggling (and I'd had two pals by this point in our conversation, so I was a bit giggly!!) Sinead is, simply put, crack up. I love how fine she is to say the inside thoughts out loud, especially when it's something we have all thought at one point. I think everyone needs a Sinead in their lives. To remind us how not serious life is, and how silly parenthood is, even when it is all a lot and deeply serious. If you would like more of Sinead, please go and grab her book It Nearly Killed Me but I Love You . Keep an eye on my instagram because there may be a cheeky giveaway coming soon.... As per usual, I ask that you share this episode around. Or share the reels/clips on your socials! The algorithm pushes out content that is being engaged with, otherwise we float away into the ether.

Hej hej! Welcome back, honey bees! We talk for quite a bit about bts of social media at the beginning of this episode, so scrub through to around 20 minutes if you aren't interested.

Oh hi folks, once again it was Abbey's turn to research but then she didn't and we ended up giving you a different kind of episode. BUT, she gives you some insight as to why she didn't research with her life updates. Y'all are the first to hear it, she's a bit nervous to tell the world, so be nice.

Join hosts Abbey & Charlotte this week as we sit down together and have a vulnerable chat about our frustrations with being working mothers, and the roadblocks we've encountered trying to "have it all" (the way we are repeatedly told we can).
