GEORGIA & KELSEY: Their Birthday Actually Made Me Quite Emotional

Georgia Jones and Kelsey Parker are back together for a brilliantly chaotic catch-up that covers everything from everyday annoyances to unexpectedly emotional mum moments. They vent about the absolute infuriation of speeding fines and parking tickets when you’re just trying to survive the school run, celebrate Cooper turning 8, and get a bit teary asking the big question: Are our kids growing up too fast? (Spoiler: yes, and we’re not okay about it.) The girls also unpack how Valentine’s Day works in schools in 2026 (cards, crushes, chaos… all of it), before diving into a brand-new We Listen & We Don’t Judge segment which varies from Pancake Promises to No Regret Naps, packed with hilarious listener confessions that will make every parent feel seen. This is mum life, exactly as it is. A Create Podcast Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Mum’s The Word, Kelsey Parker is joined by former Made In Chelsea star, author, and mum Millie Mackintosh for an honest conversation about motherhood, identity, and change.

GEORGIA & KELSEY: Dealing With Bullying & Why We're Sick Of Winter Already

Georgia Jones and Kelsey Parker are back in the studio together, catching up as everyone attempts to slide back into routine after the holidays. This week, they talk honestly about how they, and the kids, are coping with the return to school life, and whether Bodhi has fully settled into primary school yet. They also tackle a big and important topic: how parents should deal with school bullying, sharing thoughts, worries, and the realities of navigating it as a mum. The girls also debate winter vs summer parenting (spoiler: January and February are firmly in the bin), from dark mornings to endless layers and the general survival mode that comes with the colder months. And of course, We Listen & We Don’t Judge returns, with listener confessions that prove no one is alone in the chaos of parenting. A Create Podcast Hosted on Acast.

EMMA CONWAY: Going Mad Sparked Me Into Thinking About Perimenopause

This week on Mum’s The Word, Georgia Jones is joined by Emma Conway, better known online as Brummy Mummy Of 2, for a chat about midlife, motherhood, and everything in between. Emma opens up about navigating perimenopause, her experience with HRT, and why we need to be talking about this stage of life far more openly. She also flips the script on parenting older kids, sharing why having teenagers isn’t actually all bad (yes, really). And because no Mum’s The Word episode is complete without a bit of joy and chaos, Emma also talks about her self-proclaimed love for the second man in her life, the one and only Gary Barlow, as well as Georgia revealing who her secret celebrity crush is.

GEORGIA & KELSEY: Think Mum Life Is Hard? Try Ski Mum Life

Georgia Jones and Kelsey Parker are back in the studio together, bringing you another episode packed with chaos, laughs, and very real mum life moments. On this week’s agenda, Kelsey shares what it was really like taking Aurelia and Bodhi skiing for the first time including the emotional rollercoaster of sending your kids off to ski school and hoping for the best. Georgia, meanwhile, reveals the slightly questionable Christmas present Danny bought her: a half-marathon… and why, despite everything, she’s secretly looking forward to it. Things take a dramatic turn when Danny’s well-meaning gift somehow ends with Georgia covered in blood (yes, really), before the girls weigh in on the annual “new year, new me” gym obsession. And of course, We Listen & We Don’t Judge returns with a Christmas and New Year special, featuring festive parenting confessions that prove no one truly has it together over the holidays.

ROSSI D WOODS & LUCY THE FEMALE WIFE: Everyone Thought I Was Gay From Social Media

This week on Mum’s The Word, Kelsey Parker is joined in the studio by social media stars Rossi D Woods and Lucy (The Female Wife) for a hilarious chat about parenting, pre-fame life, and everything in between. The trio dive into why everyone once assumed Ross was gay thanks to his viral videos, and how social media fame has shaped their family life. Ross and Lucy also share what they were doing before the internet came calling, from hairdressing and cabin crew life to West End stages. They chat about raising kids who are perhaps a little too comfortable at film premieres, compare notes on bedtime routines (or the lack of them) in what they dub the “bedtime Olympics,” and bond over one universal parenting truth: we all hate homework. This episode is proof that parenting is messy, no matter how glossy it looks online. A Create Podcast Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

GEORGIA & KELSEY: 2026 New Years Special

Georgia Jones and Kelsey Parker are back in the studio to welcome in the New Year with the Mum’s The Word 2026 New Year’s Special and nothing is off-limits. As they close the door on a tough and testing 2025, the girls reflect honestly on the challenges they faced, what motherhood taught them over the past year, and the lessons they’re carrying forward. From the hard moments to the small wins, it’s a reminder that growth often comes from surviving, not thriving. They also look ahead to 2026, sharing their hopes, intentions, and realistic resolutions, the kind that fit around school runs, exhaustion, and real life. And of course, it wouldn’t be Mum’s The Word without it… the first We Listen and We Don’t Judge of 2026 with listener confessions that prove parenting chaos doesn’t clock off for the New Year. This episode is the perfect way to step into 2026 together. A Create Podcast Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
