Show Notes
Everywhere you look, it feels like there's pressure to be the perfect mum... the perfectly packed lunches, spotless house, endless patience, thriving career, and happy kids. This week, we're calling BS. We chat about the unrealistic expectations placed on mums, the comparison trap that social media creates, and why trying to live up to an impossible standard can leave parents feeling like they're never enough. We also share our own experiences and remind ourselves (and you) that being a good mum doesn't mean being a perfect one. If you've ever felt like you weren't doing enough, this conversation is your reminder that perfection isn't the goal... and maybe it never should've been. 💛

Another week, another mum chat! 💬 This week we're letting you guys lead the conversation as we dive into some of the parenting topics you've requested. We're talking schools, sibling dynamics, parenting decisions and whether mum or dad should have the final say. From the things we've experienced ourselves to the questions that don't always have a straightforward answer, we're chatting about it all. Real opinions, relatable parenting moments and absolutely no pretending we've got it all figured out. 😂
We’re taking the podcast to Sydney! ✈️ This week we’re chatting all things social media and influencer events. We spill the tea on how these events work, how influencers get invited, what brands are looking for and what you actually see versus what gets posted online. Plus, we talk about our own experience being in Sydney for a very cool event and all the chaos that comes with it! Basically… we’re giving you the behind-the-scenes of the behind-the-scenes. 😂
This week’s episode gets pretty raw & real... Tomikah gives us an update on her son’s speech therapy, while Meg shares something very personal, her experience with a miscarriage 18 months ago. We talk about the pregnancy, the miscarriage, the aftermath and all the feelings that come with losing a baby. We also chat about why miscarriage can be so hard to talk about and why sharing these experiences can be so important. A vulnerable one, but a conversation we think is worth having. ❤️
We honestly don't know how Tash survived her first birth... 😳 This week we're joined by Tash Delrosario, who takes us through her birth stories, including a first birth that had us completely speechless. But there's so much more to Tash's motherhood journey. She also opens up about her daughter's autism diagnosis's, the emotions that came with it, and what the journey has looked like since. From a birth story you won't believe to navigating life after an autism diagnosis, this is a raw, honest and incredibly relatable conversation about the realities of motherhood.
Two weeks off and somehow we have SO much to tell you... 👀 This week we're catching up on everything that's been happening behind the scenes. Tomikah shares a pregnancy update, gives us an insight into how things are going with baby number two and chats about taking Chance to speech therapy. Meg gets real about the struggles of navigating the kids' tantrums (because motherhood is just negotiating with tiny humans all day 😂) and also gives us the latest tea on her single life. A very overdue catch-up filled with parenting chaos, pregnancy updates and a little bit of dating talk. ☕️
