15. Acupuncture for pregnancy, fertility & womens health with guest Anne Gledhill-Myhill

Want to know more about how acupuncture can help support you in pregnancy, when trying to conceive and in womens health in general - then this podcast with expert Anne Gledhill-Myhill is for you!

14. What to do with all the unsolicited advice you get as a mother

Unsolicited advice. It comes thick and fast once you’ve had a baby (and even in pregnancy too). Everyone has an opinion, and they REALLY want to tell you about it!

So I've recorded this podcast with some ways to deal with all that advice you never asked for - that can leave you feeling overwhelmed, full of doubt, or somehow ‘not good enough’.

13. The importance of GOOD postnatal care

My guest is Debs Neiger an independent midwife and author (amongst many pother talents). We chat about lots of things, with a lot of focus on postnatal care and how it could and should be so much better than women and birthing people currently get within the system and why that is so important and also about:

~ what is an independent midwife?

~ how you support team is really important

~ authoring a book "AIMS Guide to Giving Birth to Your Baby"

~ Matrescence

~ Postnatal depletion, postnatal expectations vs reality

~ Postnatal care within the NHS and how this differs considerably in it's scope and support with a private midwife

12. Motherhood, creativity, identity and twins

Poet and Psychotherapist Flora Croft joins to to chat all things creativity, identity and twin motherhood too.

Her groundbreaking book of poetry I Am A Spider Mother is a unique creative exploration of twin motherhood, identity as a mother, transformation, vulnerability, pregnancy, infertility and IVF and also the relationship between grandmother, mother and children too. Basically the poems and themes are so relevant to all mothers.

We chat about writing as a vessel for creativity, poetry and how the act of getting words down on paper is so cathartic as well as creative. How identity change and transition as a mother, and how it is not always easy, fun or enjoyable.

11. Why Being a 'Perfectly Imperfect' Mother is actually perfect for your baby

The idea of striving to be a 'perfect' mother is something that so many women struggle with. This podcast is going to dispel that myth, that BS - that we need to be 'perfect' mothers, when actually being a 'good enough' mother is better for both us and our babies! I also share some ideas and techniques that can help support you if you find letting go of perfectionism hard and want to try to be more at ease with your imperfections (note: they are golden). And there's a lovely guided meditation to end this podcast too.

10. Naturally supporting womens & wellness and setting up a women focussed business

A really brilliant chat with Bethan of HotTea Mama, we covered SO much! From natural ways to support your body as a woman through the power of plants - from fertility, through pregnancy, to menopause.

We also talk about LOADS more stuff. Like making big life and career changes, & setting up a brand new business with small children and on maternity leave. Flexible working for mothers , the the work / family juggle. Setting up a female focussed and female founded business, and a bit of feminism too.
