このコンテンツについて

Hello,

I am Amanda and as a busy stay at home mum to 4 kids, 2 of them autistic I know how easy it is to put yourself last when children come along and they become the focus.

From a young age as women we are socially conditioned as to what a good mum looks like. All giving, all caring and the superwoman of the home and family life. We try to live up to these ideals and its impossible.

This expectation is completely unrealistic and leads mums to feeling overwhelmed and burned out and ultimately like we are massive failures. The weight of mum guilt is heavy and needs to be removed.

I sadly lost my own mum to bowel cancer in 2019 which really hit home for me how precious our time is. We so often put the things we want to do off until the kids are older, are in school, or leave home. Losing my mum made me realise that time isn't promised and that its precious, we have to create and live the life we dream of now.

This podcast is my way of letting mums know they need to put themselves first, how they can find the time and more energy for the day to day and more love and compassion for themselves and this will ripple out to their family and their life.

    The episode delves into the struggles of motherhood, exploring the often-overlooked aspects that lead to frustration and overwhelm. I share insights on navigating the challenges of balancing work, relationships, postpartum changes, and the emotional rollercoaster of mum guilt.

  • Quick and Easy Self-Care - Boost your mood and energy in Under 10 Minutes
    2023/10/27

    In this week's episode we dive into the world of self-care for busy mums in need of a quick mood boost. Life can get hectic, and finding time for self-care can feel like an impossible task. But Im going to tell you how in just a few minutes a day you can make a real difference.

    I share some eye-opening statistics about the limited time mothers have for themselves each day, which might resonate with many of you. Juggling parenting, work, and daily chores can leave us feeling drained, and self-care often takes a backseat. But here's the good news: even dedicating just 10 minutes to self-care daily can have a transformative impact.

    I introduce my concept of "mini mum moments," providing you with a variety of fast, easy, and effective self-care practices you can incorporate into your day. These small moments of self-care can plant the seeds of accomplishment and motivation that lead to positive changes in your life.

    I invite you to reflect on what self-care means to you. Self-care is a unique and personal journey, and it's essential to discover what truly recharges and empowers you.

    Thank you for listening to Season 1. Be sure to catch our special Christmas and New Year episodes in November and December, and I'll be back with Season 2 in January. I appreciate your support, and we can't wait to continue this journey with you.
