This Father’s Day, we’re flipping the script. In this special episode of In Mother Words, we pause to honour the fathers—through the eyes of moms. So often, we speak from a place of overwhelm or frustration (I know I’ve been there too). But today, we ask 6 heartfelt questions to reflect on how our partners show up, love, and lead in their own way. This is our way of seeing them, acknowledging them, and giving back. I hope this conversation blesses your heart. Questions:

1:57 - How does your partner lighten your load as a mum, even in small ways—and why does that matter to you? 2:57 - How do the little things your husband does remind you that you're in this together—and why is it worth celebrating? 4:09 - How has seeing him as a father changed how you see him as a person? 5:07 : How has your husband made you feel understood and supported in motherhood? 6:16 - How do you handle moments when you don’t see eye to eye as parents—and why has that been important for your growth together? 7:20 - What advice would you give a mum who feels overwhelmed and unsure how to ask for help - especially from their husbands?

Social media often glorifies motherhood and they filter out the realities that we really face. This kind of puts us in a mode where we compare ourselves, we strive for perfection, and it doesn't do us any favors. This conversation today is between three mothers who are passionate about sharing the realities that affect all of us, and I hope you enjoy our conversation. Leave a comment and share your thoughts with us! Looking forward to hearing from you!

There’s a version of motherhood we’re shown: The perfect photos, the smiling baby, the mom who somehow does it all.

And then there’s the version no one talks about.

The silence in the house when your partner goes back to work.

The guilt of answering work emails while your newborn cries.

The tears you cry alone because your baby won’t latch… and you’re convinced it’s your fault.

In today’s episode, I sit with Wanda - A founder, a speech therapist, and a new mother - as she shares what happened when her two identities collided.

This is an unfiltered conversation about identity, guilt, and the illusion of balance. We talk about what it takes to keep a business running while your body is still healing. And how the hardest part of motherhood is asking for help.

Mama, if you’re in the thick of it, this episode is for you.
