Mum Talk PodcastShow Notes
Hello, and welcome to the final episode of the preparing for birth and baby mini series! This week I am wrapping up the series talking through all the final things I can think of. This week I am focusing on late pregnancy and the hormones, irritability and nesting urges that seem to come to me at 38 weeks! I talk through the birth pool we have very kindly been loaned by https://www.gentlebirthsbirthingpoolhire.co.uk , how it works, what you receive and how it goes back. We are going to be preparing our 'birth room' on Thursday, I will be visually sharing that on mumtalkpodcast instagram so do follow if you would like to see but I talk this week through our intentions. I also touch on childcare for different scenarios, organisation, finishing our little boys nursery and the postpartum period. This week I share with you two brilliant products, one from Cybex https://cybex-online.com/en-gb/car-seats/cloudzisize who we have worked with before and really rate them. If you are after an infant car seat that swivels on a base PLUS can be used without a base and with a car seatbelt AND has a lie flat function have a listen! It really is a brilliant infant car seat. The second product, after mentioning it on episode two is the brilliant PacaPod changing bag https://www.pacapod.com/ , its beautiful, have a listen and watch mumtalkpodcast highlights at the same time so you can see what I am talking about. Here are the links to kindly gifted PR products which have just made our nursery - the Kidly Lion Rug https://www.kidly.co.uk/products/tapis-petit/lion-rug/10749?colour=ocher & Kidly Giraffe animal head https://www.kidly.co.uk/products/kids-depot/animal-head-wall-decor/10829?colour=giraffe We will be back with series 10 late June/early July!

This week on Mum Talk Podcast I am joined by Lydia, a career and life coach from Works for Me coaching. Lydia has been a long time listener of the podcast and reached out after listening to me talking on the podcast about my personal career confusion and how I was struggling to map out the path forward. Lydia touches on why, especially mothers are hitting career confusion at this point in our lives and what the next steps can look like. Lydia shares with us how to clue hunt, find our core values, our strengths and interests, which then drive the future decisions.
This week on the podcast I am joined by Emma Bord, a personal trainer and mum of three. Exercise plays a huge part in my personal motherhood journey, not only to keep strong physically but to keep strong mentally, it's my constant, my me time so I am so pleased I can bring this conversation to you.
A bit of a surprise podcast but after so many of you requested I come on and chat about Off Campus after my viral post on instagram, here I am! I wish this could be an open conversation rather than me talking at you, but I share with you today my thoughts and feelings on Off Campus and why it is giving us millennial mums all the feels. If you haven't watched Off Campus yet, dont worry I dont give anything away and also there's more to this podcast! I am also sharing the busy start to our summer holidays, a truly magical experience, a winner of a summer holiday idea and dropping the guilt around summer holiday planning.
On this episode of Mum Talk, I share some exciting news for the podcast and for you all which seems to have aligned at the perfect time, share a well requested career confused update and briefly chat about schooling/homeschooling.
Today I am diving into career confusion. After my DM's were inundated with messages off the back on a social post I put out there about my personal experience with career confusion and how I feel like I am rebuilding my life, I thought this week I would share some information on what contributes to women feeling career confused even more post birth; matrescence, hormones, niching, money, self worth and negativity and share some actionable advice I was given.
