SEND Mojo is your dose of motivation, resilience, and real talk from the messy middle of SEND life. Each episode features honest conversations with parent carers, advocates, and change makers about how they keep going - even when they feel like hiding under a blanket with a biscuit. We talk burnout, bouncing back, finding joy in chaos, and all the ways we drag our mojo out from under the sofa (again). No toxic positivity. No “just be grateful.” Just real people sharing how they keep moving through the hard stuff - one wobble, one win, and one deep breath at a time. Hosted by Debs Aspland, parent carer of three, speaker, chaos juggler, and big believer in laughter, swearing, and second chances. Part of the SEND Believers Network.

    WITB: What’s In The Bin – The Room 101 for SEND Life

    The first in a new series on the podcast, What's in the Bin? We talk a lot about getting motivated, but this series explores the reasons why we are unmotivated. The issues within the system knocking us down again and again. The things we would throw into the bin if we could. We asked three parent carers what one thing would they throw into the bin if they were in charge of the system for a day. Donna Giles, Sandra Ramsey and Sharon Oliphant share one thing each and just for fun, you can head to the website and vote on which one of those things you would choose to throw into the bin too.

    Productivity Tip: Mel Robbins 5 Second Rule

    Many of the productivity books and ideas start with you ready to take action and sat at your desk, or in front of the cleaning cupboard, or with tools in hand for the garden. I wanted something different. Something that started with me sat on the sofa, thinking about doing something but then procrastinating. The 5 second rule was the answer for me. Thanks Mel Robbins. A great book, an easy concept and one which really works. Have a listen and give it a go. I would love to hear if it works for you. Head over to my site for more tips on productivity.
