[10] A challenging transition to 2 under 2 - sleep deprivation, mum rage and a baby who wouldn’t stop crying

In today’s episode Shannon speaks in depth about her challenging transition from 1 to 2 babies. The severe sleep deprivation, mum rage/ depression & anxiety, being dismissed constantly by medical professionals. All in all it was a rough first year of Miss Winni’s life but there is light at the end of the tunnel and we have a happy, healthy and thriving girl at almost 2 years old! The audio on this podcast is a little rusty in parts, we apologise and are working towards fixing it for future episodes!

[9] making friends as mums; motherhood can be lonely, how we found connections and how friendships changed after babies

This week we discuss the more lonely side of motherhood, how we managed to find our people and ways which you can do. Motherhood is extremely life changing and we found our friendships change too. Finding new friends who understood our struggles was important, but not always easy. We chat about what worked for us as a extrovert (Kirsty) and an introvert (Shannon) and how we have managed our first couple of years of motherhood.

[5] How we are raising our children to have a positive relationship with food and their bodies - eating disorders, disordered eating, over exercising

In today’s episode we are taking a deep dive into our experiences with eating disorders, disordered eating, our triggers and how we managed/ continue to manage and overcome our problems. We talk about what strategies we put in to place to make sure it doesn’t spill on to our children and how we are encouraging them to have positive relationships with food and their bodies. Our main focus being raising strong and confident humans who know the least important thing about them is their appearance & bodies. Please note this episode does come with a trigger warning as we discuss sensitive topics in relation to eating disorders & body image. Listen with caution if you have been previously affected by any of these topics.
