Do Your Thing with Tamsin Williamson (The Parenthood Coach‪)‬ Tamsin Williamson

This episode of Do Your Thing is another gorgeous conversation from my Instagram live archives where I spoke to Tricia Murray all about about navigating anxiety as a parent. 
Tricia is a Mum of 4 boys, and she is also a Mind Coach and Business Mentor, helping anxious, stressed and frazzled women find calm and ease in their lives and businesses. 
As well as supporting women with anxiety Tricia has also been on her own anxiety journey, only realising in her 30’s that what she had experienced throughout her life WAS actually anxiety. It was only when Tricia was well into Motherhood that she really began to understand and take back control of her anxiety - and in turn also support hundreds of other women to do the same. 
Anxiety is a topic that I know will be relevant to so many of us (myself included) and parenthood can be a real trigger as well as a powerful motivation to support ourselves. And during this conversation Tricia talks so insightfully about the topic armed with a huge amount of both personal and professional wisdom, experience and empathy. 
I really this episode provides you with some support, solidarity and suggestions to help you realise you CAN take back control over your difficult thoughts and feelings, and that your anxiety doesnt need to define you or your experience of Motherhood. 
(NB: please excuse a few recording and sound imperfections on this episode, part of which was originally recorded as an Instagram live rather than using a professional podcast setup. I've managed to let it go - so I hope you can too! ;-) )

Summer Hols…incoming! 😬I've navigated a fair few school holidays by now - and I've experienced alllll the fizzy ups and the frazzling downs that come with that.But the one thing I've learnt (and desperately try to remember!) is that getting ahead of the game and making some sort of intentional plan for the Summer (versus diving in blindly and hoping for the best) really DOES make a massive difference to the experience for EVERYONE! This current pre-holiday window can be CRITICAL when it comes to harnessing a positive mindset (and being acle to ACTUALLY enjoy myself!) over the school holidays...We COULD spend the next few weeks stressing about the holidays before they've even started…But I can pretty much guarantee that strategy will a) fill you with dread for the summer and b) start the holidays stuck in a negative and stressed out headspace. And who is that really going to serve?So I hope this podcast episode offers you a few juicy tips to help you get ahead on the Summer hols curve, regain a sense of positivity and control over your upcoming summer holidays and find a way for the summer holidays to work for EVERYONE in your family, you INCLUDED!
PLUS find out about my AWESOME new Summer coaching offer: SERIOUS ABOUT SEPTEMBER which will help you navigate the Summer stretch feeling fully supported so you can both enjoy the holidays with your kids, AND start September STRONG in your own right!

** TRIGGER WARNING ** This conversation contains discussion around Trauma during and after giving birth, as well as my guest's experience of PTSD. Please prioritise looking after your mental and emotional wellbeing as a priority before listening to this episode.
It was a pleasure to welcome Caroline Marshall to the pod, who is a Mum of 2 boys, the founder of a multi award winning Virtual Assistant Agency Upsource and podcast host of the show ‘Bump to Business owner’. 
In this episode Caroline shares how she coped and adapted following a series of unexpected curveballs in her life and career, culminating with the most shocking and unexpected eventuality of all when her second child suddenly became seriously unwell immediately after he was born, requiring a prolonged stay in NICU (the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) in the middle of the pandemic. 
Thankfully Caroline’s son made a full recovery. But, this Traumatic event and experience as a NICU Mum has understandably had a profound effect on Caroline’s outlook on the world, mental health and how she has subsequently gone on to 'do her thing' in life, business, relationships and motherhood.
During our conversation Caroline bravely shares the details of this life-changing experience, including the steps she took to grieve, process, adapt and heal following her Trauma. 
And the space we created also gave me permission to share the details of my own difficult birth experience with my first child, which also involved a stay in NICU, and which I only began processing in the last couple years.  
This is a vulnerable and powerful conversation which I’m so grateful to Caroline for having with me. And I hope her words offer hope and strength to anyone navigating the aftermath of their own traumatic experience right now, and help listeners feel better resourced to support loved ones who may be struggling.

"Anger is the guardian of sadness and other emotions"
These words played a pivotal role in how I understand and deal with my own big feelings that show up as rage in my life.
And in this episode I wanted to share some more background to this transformational concept, in the hope that it supports you to work through your own big emotions that may rear their heads (and make a whole big mess!) while on your Motherhood journey.
Rage in motherhood is so very real for so many of us - so many of my clients and friends tell me how they really struggle to keep a handle on their angry reactions and outbursts, especially since becoming a Mum.
‘Doing Your Thing’ can also feel so much harder when we are blinded by such overpowering emotions. 
So I hope this short podcast episode helps to both normalise the big feelings you may be experiencing in Motherhood, and helps you show yourself some more compassion and feel more supported and resourced in yourself when the red mist swoops on in.

During this episode I talk to Jo Permaul all about the role that natural medicine has played in how she's raised her kids and lived her life. 
Jo has 2 grown up kids (aged 18 and 21), she is the Director of coaching school 'Wellness Professionals At Work' PLUS she is also a trained Homeopath, Life Coach and a qualified teacher. 
During this conversation Jo shares how her own childhood health struggles (which came with an inability to find an adequate remedy via conventional medicine) introduced her to the world of homeopathy, which later down the line also motivated her to raise her family using natural health and wellness remedies and techniques. 
What I found especially refreshing was that Jo is not ANTI conventional medicine at all –  but rather she is PRO choice, and has learnt how to intuitively integrate conventional medicine into her own natural approach. 
This episode is a beautiful lesson in trusting your gut instincts, championing open communication with your kids about how they are feeling and cultivating a sense of  empowerment when it comes to taking responsibity for our own health and wellbeing. 
It inspired me to seek out support from a homeopath - and I hope it offers you you some valuable food for thought too.

Here's another wonderful episode from my Insta live archives, where I spoke to Lindsay Dalton about how she does her thing by being deeply tuned into her menstrual cycle.  
Lindsay is a holistic menstrual cycle & feminine embodiment coach and a doula, who has supported women for over 10 years to reclaim their power over their feminine energy. And in this episode we discuss how Lindsay uses her menstrual cycle understanding to guide her energetically and intuitively through life, business and parenthood. 
As women, our menstrual cycle can often feel like anything but magic. Having periods can feel disruptive, inconvenient and often down right unpleasant to live with. 
But in this conversation, Lindsay shares how connecting to the wisdom of her cycle has supported her to feel empowered by this part of being a woman, and how her knowledge has not only helped her to regain control over her experience of life but also support other women who are struggling to do the same. 
And I hope this conversation will offer a fresh perspective to you too!
