Does Motherhood Define or Redefine You?

Becoming a parent is undoubtedly one of the most life-changing experiences in the world. It’s full of unexpected surprises—both positive and challenging. It can also shift your sense of self in ways you might not anticipate, not only during those early months of sleepless nights and new routines but even years down the line. In this week’s episode, Annaliese and Tegan talk about the times they felt they lost their identity and the moments that helped them rediscover it. Plus, we check in on how parents around Australia are wrangling dinnertime!

Little Love Stories: Only Saying Yes To The Joy

Before you become “Mum” or “Dad,” you're just you—with a first name, a spontaneous social life, and the freedom to pursue your career ambitions with no limits, even if that means sometimes working 20-hour days. That was the life of today's guest, Bec Bignell, before she became a parent. Bec pushed herself to give 100% to both her career and her role as a parent, but eventually, the strain took its toll. Forced to pause, she reflected on the moments that truly brought her happiness and began to seek fulfilment on her own terms. Read Bec's full Little Love Story here.

Fun and funny. I feel like I learn something in most episodes, or at least walk away with something to think about.
A lot of bad advice

I would never leave my kids while in a brand new city (on holiday) with someone they do not know, no matter if they are safe. I suggest not going on vacation if when you get there you feel like getting away from your children.
