Ever feel like parenting is an obstacle course of "shoulds" and expectations?

Today, I'm joined by Ashley, the founder of Birth Smarter and a Fair Play facilitator.

By sharing my own moments of mom burnout and marital tension, I expose the underbelly of trying to do it all and the freedom found in prioritizing presence over perfection.

This episode isn't just about the theory; it's packed with real takeaways that resonate with mothers fighting with their "to-do" lists and the relentless mental load.

Together, we highlight for moms:

• answering the tough questions about equitable division of labour
• looking beyond the oversimplified parenting choices, like breastfeeding + bottle feeding.
• self-awareness is the compass that guides us through the complex landscape of raising children.
• the profound impact of social media on parenting
