I love being a mum. What I don’t love is what modern motherhood has become: the overwhelm, the invisible labour, the financial squeeze, the loneliness. This is what I call The Motherhood Debt, and this podcast is where we get real about all of it: This is honest talk for women who love their families, but want a version of motherhood that feels more sustainable, more joyful and more supported. Hosted by writer and educator Natalie K. Martin, every episode mixes lived experience, social insight and practical permission to do things differently.

    89. Where can mums tell the truth?...the WHOLE truth!

    Where do mums go with the thoughts they can't say out loud? We all filter ourselves depending on who we're with. That's normal. But what happens when there is nowhere we can tell the whole truth? In this episode, Natalie explores why every mum needs at least one place where she can speak honestly without judgement, interruption or advice. From therapy and Mama Circles to It's A Lot, this conversation explores why safe containers matter—and why sometimes the greatest gift another mother can give us isn't advice, but recognition. 🫂 Join a loving community of mums in IT'S A LOT – free for 30 days.

    88. Why Does Motherhood Cost Women So Much?

    Most women prepare for pregnancy. Far fewer prepare for what motherhood does to their long-term finances. In this episode, Nat explores the motherhood penalty, why women's earnings often fall after having children while men's continue to rise, and why the biggest financial cost of motherhood isn't nappies or childcare, but the change to your entire financial trajectory. If you're already a mum, or you're thinking about becoming one, this is a conversation every family should have. 👭 The Five Villages Every Mum Needs⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ this FREE audio guide will walk you through the different levels of support mums need, and how to build them. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get it here.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🫂 Need a safe space to share how you REALLY feel?

    87. Sometimes I don't like my child

    Sometimes the hardest part of parenting isn't loving your child. It's feeling like you just don't click. In this episode, Nat explores a Reddit post that asks a question many parents are too afraid to admit out loud. Could it be that some parents and children are simply less naturally compatible? Together, we unpack why our children aren't "mini us", why personality matters more than we realise, and how curiosity can transform even the most challenging relationships. If you've ever wondered why one child feels easy while another leaves you feeling exhausted or disconnected, this episode is for you. 🫂 Need a safe space to share how you REALLY feel?

    86: I thought we’d be a team after having kids: why 50/50 parenting misses the point

    For many of us, that’s exactly what we expected. We’d share the load, support each other, and figure parenting out together. So why does it so often stop feeling like a team? In this episode, I explore why the idea of 50/50 parenting might actually be setting us up for frustration. We talk about the difference between sharing tasks and sharing responsibility, why life can never be split perfectly down the middle, and what equal parenting might really look like when family life is constantly changing. If you’ve ever felt like you’re carrying more than your fair share, or found yourself keeping score without wanting to, this episode offers a different way of thinking about fairness, partnership and modern parenthood. 👭 The Five Villages Every Mum Needs⁠⁠⁠ If this conversation resonated, download my free audio guide, The 5 Villages Every Mum Needs, where I explore the different kinds of support modern mothers need and why so many of us feel like we’re doing it alone. ⁠⁠⁠Get it here.⁠⁠⁠ 🫂 Join a loving community of mums in IT'S A LOT – free for 30 days.

    85. You've just yelled at your kid. Now what?

    Have you become the shouty mum you always said you'd never be? This week, I'm talking about something so many mums experience but so few feel able to admit: anger. I explore why mum rage is rarely just about the moment itself, what might be sitting underneath it, and how the realities of modern motherhood can leave us carrying more than any one person was ever meant to. I also talk about the guilt we feel and why children don't need perfect parents, they need repair.

    84: Some kids are harder to parent than others

    Some children sleep. Some don't. Some children happily walk beside you. Others seem determined to test every boundary they can find. In this episode, I'm talking about something we don't say out loud very often: some children are simply harder to parent than others. Not because they're bad. Not because we'd swap them. And not because we love them any less. I'm exploring temperament, comparison, strong-willed children, and why different children create different motherhood experiences. Because wishing things were easier doesn't mean you love your child any less. 👭 The Five Villages Every Mum Needs⁠ this FREE audio guide will walk you through the different levels of support mums need, and how to build them. ⁠Get it here.⁠ 🫂 Join a loving community of mums in IT'S A LOT – free for 30 days.

    83. Everyone wants a 90s soft-mum summer. But it's not 1995 anymore.

    Everyone seems to want a 90s mum summer right now. Less screens. More outside play. Slower days. Simpler memories. And honestly? I want that too. But it's not 1995 anymore. In this episode, I'm talking about nostalgia, technology, childhood memories, social media, summer pressure, and why modern mothers are trying to recreate the feeling of 90s childhoods inside a completely different world. Maybe what we're really longing for isn't the 90s. Maybe it's more breathing room, more support, and less pressure. 👭 The Five Villages Every Mum Needs this FREE audio guide will walk you through the different levels of support mums need, and how to build them.

    82. Why mums are still exhausted, no matter how much we sleep

    We're sleeping. We're resting. We're trying to slow down. And yet so many of us are still exhausted. In this episode, I'm talking about the difference between being tired and being depleted, and why modern motherhood often gives us fragments of rest without the kind of recovery we actually need. From brain fog and burnout to the pressure to keep functioning through everything, we're exploring why sleep isn't always enough, and why maybe the problem isn't that we're doing rest wrong. 🫂 Join a loving community of mums in IT'S A LOT – free for 30 days.
