Motherhood is like a whirlwind. Although beautifully life-changing, it's also challenging and all-consuming. The Reclaiming Mum podcast with Empowerment Coach, Dr. Jemma Andrew-Adiamah, sole purpose is to give mums the space to explore their needs, wants, and desires beyond being a mum, without the guilt. Being a mum and carving out space for your ambitions aren't mutually exclusive, you can have both. From self-care, mindset, finding calm, unfiltered motherhood, and much more - this is your weekly reminder that you can be an awesome mum and make your dreams a reality too!

    In this final episode of Season 7 of Reclaiming MUM, we're taking a moment to pause, reflect, and bring together the powerful themes we've explored throughout the season.

    Turning 40: Thoughts on Ageing, Expectations, and Life Not Being Figured Out Yet

    If you'd like a little extra support in this season of motherhood, you're warmly invited to book a free 30-minute Breakthrough Call with me. It's a gentle, no-pressure space where we can explore what support might look like for you and what could help you move forward in a way that feels sustainable and aligned with your life right now.  Turning 40 has a way of making you pause and reflect. In this episode, I'm sharing some honest thoughts about ageing, expectations, and the pressure many of us feel to have life completely figured out by now. When I was younger, I imagined that by 40 I would have everything mapped out, the perfect career, a balance between work and family, and a clear sense of who I was. But the truth is, life rarely unfolds exactly the way we imagine it. As a mum of four, I've realised that growing older isn't about having all the answers. It's about learning to embrace the messy, beautiful journey of becoming. In this episode, I talk about: • What I thought life would look like at 40 • The myth that everyone else has it all figured out • The unexpected lessons that come with getting older • Why not having a perfect plan can actually be freeing • How motherhood changes your relationship with time, identity, and growth If you've ever looked at your life and wondered, "Shouldn't I have this figured out by now?" this conversation is for you. Because the truth is, none of us has it all figured out. And maybe we're not meant to. This is a gentle, honest reflection on ageing, motherhood, identity, and learning to trust your own path.

    If you'd like extra support in this current season of motherhood, you can book a free 30-minute Breakthrough Call to explore what might work for you in a way that feels gentle and sustainable. Spring is finally here, and with it comes the gentle invitation for fresh energy, new beginnings, and growth. But if you're a busy mum juggling the school run, work, family life, and the invisible load of it all, it can sometimes feel like that fresh start is happening everywhere except inside your own life. In this episode, I'm talking about how we can welcome the energy of spring in a way that actually feels nourishing and realistic for mums. We'll explore: • Why spring is the perfect time to reset your energy • Letting go of habits and expectations that no longer serve you • Planting small "seeds" for the life you want to create • Simple ways to feel lighter, calmer, and more connected this season This isn't about reinventing your whole life or adding more to your to-do list. It's about small, gentle shifts that help you reconnect with yourself alongside motherhood. If you've been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like you've lost a little bit of yourself in the busyness of mum life, this episode will leave you feeling lighter and inspired for the season ahead. And if this conversation resonates with you and you'd love some support reconnecting with yourself and creating a life that feels energising and fulfilling again, you're always welcome to reach out about working with me.

    Mum Guilt and Letting Go When Life Gets Busy

    If you'd like extra support in this current season of motherhood, you can book a free 30-minute Breakthrough Call to explore what might work for you in a way that feels gentle and sustainable. Ever felt mum guilt when life gets busy and something has to give? In this honest and relatable episode, I'm sharing what happened when I didn't publish a podcast episode during half term, and how my past self would have spiralled with guilt, shame, and "I'm falling behind" thoughts. As a mum of four, I know how quickly school holidays, childcare, and family life can throw even the best plans off track. But instead of beating myself up, I chose something different: self-compassion. In this episode, we explore: Why mum guilt is often tied to productivity The pressure ambitious mums feel to "do it all" How to let go of guilt when business, career, or creative plans slip Why modelling self-compassion matters for our children What this experience taught me about balance, boundaries, and real success If you're an ambitious mum who feels torn between building your dreams and being present with your children, this episode will remind you that you are not failing, you are human. This is your permission slip to release perfectionism, embrace flexibility, and redefine what success looks like in motherhood and business. If this resonated, share it with another mum who needs to hear that she is enough, even when life gets messy.

  6. Motherhood, Mental Health & Self-Care: Why Society Needs to Do More with Kim Palmer

    Motherhood, Mental Health & Self-Care: Why Society Needs to Do More with Kim Palmer

    In this episode, I'm joined by Kim Palmer, CEO of the Clementine App, for an honest and thought-provoking conversation about motherhood, mental health, and why self-care alone isn't enough. We explore how maternal wellbeing has become overly individualised, placing the responsibility on mums to cope better, do more, and "look after themselves", while systemic support continues to fall short. From the lack of accessible maternal mental health resources in the UK, to soaring childcare costs and limited paternity leave, we unpack the wider societal pressures that shape a mother's daily reality. Kim shares her perspective on the role digital tools like Clementine can play in supporting mums, without replacing the need for properly funded services, cultural change, and collective care. Together, we ask bigger questions about who is really responsible for supporting mothers, and what it would look like if society treated maternal wellbeing as essential infrastructure, not a luxury. This episode is for mums who feel exhausted, stretched thin, and quietly asking, "Why does this feel so hard, even when I'm doing everything 'right'?"  Links mentioned in this episode: Clementine App Clementine App on Instagram Jemma's website Jemma's Instagram Join Jemma's email list for updates ✨ If you'd like extra support in this current season of motherhood, you can book a free 30-minute Breakthrough Call to explore what might work for you in a way that feels gentle and sustainable.

    Let's deinfluence your motherhood journey

    Are you feeling overwhelmed by the pressure to be the "perfect mum"? In this week's episode, we're breaking down the unrealistic expectations placed on mums and giving you permission to let them go. From the belief that you must enjoy every moment, keep a spotlessly clean home, or put yourself last to be a good mum, this episode challenges the narratives that quietly fuel guilt, burnout, and self-doubt in motherhood. I share honest reflections as a mum of four and empowerment coach, along with practical mindset shifts to help you stop comparing, trust your instincts, and create a motherhood journey that actually works for you and your family. You'll learn how to: Let go of societal pressure and "perfect mum" culture Stop feeling guilty for not enjoying every moment of motherhood Redefine success, balance, and self-care as a mum Parent with more confidence, calm, and self-trust If you're an overwhelmed mum craving more ease, clarity, and fulfilment, without losing yourself, this episode will remind you that you are already doing enough.

    No 5am starts: How to make time for yourself as an overwhelmed mum

    If you're a mum who feels like there is never any time left for you, this episode is for you. In this episode of Reclaiming Mum, I'm sharing how I make time for myself as a self-employed mum of four while solo parenting, without waking up at 5am, following rigid routines, or pushing myself harder. I talk honestly about why "just wake up earlier" doesn't work for overwhelmed mums, the hidden cost of always putting yourself last, and how reclaiming time is less about adding more to your day and more about letting go of what's draining you. This episode is for mums who feel exhausted, overstimulated, and stretched thin, and who want to stop surviving and start feeling like themselves again, even in a very full season of life. In this episode, you'll hear about: Why overwhelmed mums struggle to find time for themselves The myth of needing more hours in the day How to reclaim time without guilt, hustle, or burnout Why small pockets of time matter more than perfect routines How to stop the quiet self-abandonment so many mums live in If you've ever thought, "I don't have time for myself," this episode will help you reframe that belief with compassion and realism.
