ANNOUNCEMENT!!! Why Do You Expert Like That?

Dumb Smart Mums

Show Notes

Don't ever say I don't treat you right, my babies!!! It's a whole new segment coming to your feeds!

Why Do You Expert Like That is going to be a bonus episode that features alongside the main episode every 6 weeks or so. I'll be asking a parenting-adjacent expert 3-5 listener submitted questions and give them space to answer in a long-form way. IT'S SO COOL, Y'ALL!

Our first expert is Jo Robertson (@jorobertson.therapy), a NZAC registered counsellor who takes private clients but also does heaps of awesome courses and workshops and seminars about sex/love/relationships/parenting/having tricky conversations with your kids etc. she basically takes every conversation that you naturally want to shy away from and makes it accessible! But she also just has awesome, awesome advice for those hard-to-work-through conflicts/dilemmas/sticking points that come up in parenting.

So, obviously, I need some questions to ask her! Here is the google form https://forms.gle/2ykbdvdCtxXE95jk7 please use it! Go and ask questions! I'd love to have a bunch to choose from.

As with any new thing, it's a bit of extra work, and if it's not something that people are into then I won't keep doing it. So if you're into it, let me know!

LOVE YOU! (say it back) See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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).
