Funny Mummy Alyssa Kyria on finding success through motherhood, ADHD and perimenopause
The Hot Mess Mums ClubShow Notes
Comedian and content creator Alyssa Kyria, better known as The Funny Mummy, joins Kelly to share the unexpected journey that took her from struggling actress to one of the UK's most relatable parenting comedians.
Alyssa opens up about the difficult early years of performing to tiny crowds, creating her own opportunities when the industry wouldn't open doors, and why becoming a mum – something she feared would end her career – ultimately became the making of it.
The conversation also explores ADHD, rejection sensitivity, perimenopause, HRT, social media, mental health, and why making women feel seen has become the driving force behind everything she creates.
A funny, honest and reassuring conversation about resilience, reinvention and discovering that success doesn't always look the way you imagined. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
