    Building Secure Foundations

    Building Secure Foundations

    Parenting is the hardest job in the world, and often we are unable to stand back and see what needs to change to break the circuit in moments of trickiness- moments like meal time, sleep time.

    Today I'm joined by Sarah, founder of Secure Foundations to chat all things parenting, mum rage, sibling dynamics, bedtime battles and offer some practical tips to help, as well as some mindset shifts around parenting.

    This episode comes with all love, and no shame or judgment. We all do the very best with what we know and have available to us. I hope this helps.

    Sarah offers e-courses and mentorship to support parents. Find Sarah on IG @securefoundations and @bedtimebattles and check out her website www.securefoundations.com.au.

    Caring for Luella - Erin's story

    Caring for Luella - Erin's story

    There is so much that goes unspoken when caring for a child with an illness or disability.

    So many “yeah good, thanks” responses when the truth is to exhausting to even mutter.

    Erin’s daughter Luella is a beautiful 2.5yr old little girl with the most mesmerising eyes. She suffers with uncontrollable epilepsy that consumes her life, and her families life.

    Erin bravely shares her and Lulus story over on Instagram and today she shared with me a little look into their situation and the heartbreaking decision around allowing doctors to go ahead with a huge surgery that involves removing half of Luella’s brain next month.

    Erin is the epitome of strength, courage, vulnerability and love in motherhood.

    Follow Erin and Luella’s story on Instagram @little.Lulu.love

    Pour A Cuppa

    Pour A Cuppa

    Hi! I’m so glad you’re here! I felt it was a little weird to jump straight into season 3 after my lengthy absence.

    So jump in the car, pour a hot cuppa or grab that pile of washing that’s been begging to be folded and come say hi as I sit in my walk-in robe podcast studio and pretend you are all here with me!

    Welcome to season 3.

Love it but lose the phone voice please

Love Sarah on social media and love the subjects of this podcast and the guest speakers, but I really struggle to listen to the ‘professional’ phone-voice she sometimes uses. I’m sure it’s just a nervous thing but would be great if Sarah could just let go and be her usual down-to-earth, unfiltered self that we see on her Instagram stories.
