In the Happy Mum, Happy Baby Podcast, Giovanna Fletcher continues the conversation about motherhood she began in her bestselling book of the same title. In a series of frank and warm conversations with other high-profile mums and dads, Gi discusses all aspects of parenthood - the highs, the lows, the challenges and rewards. There is no such thing as the perfect parent, and we’re all simply doing our best, something Giovanna fully encourages. It’s time to stop comparing ourselves and champion each other instead. Each episode is truly unique yet unifying. No topic is out of bounds, therefore this podcast is essential listening for any parent seeking solidarity and support. A Pixiu production.

Customer Reviews
Beautiful, raw, honest
I’ve been introduced to this podcast through the interview with Ashley and Safiyya. Absolutely beautiful. Painful but so full of love. Thank you for sharing.
Love
Really wonderful to listen to other people’s stories, and Gi is a fantastic host! I discovered it in the early days of motherhood and it was so great to listen to during long feeds.
Great episode
Great episode with the Duchess of Cambridge! Thank you for touching on maternal mental health - as a maternal and child health educator I see this topic often overlooked.
