Going out with a bang this season, i decided to invite Mikki Fisher back to further discuss life as a mum, mental health and a little bit of spirituality; we know it's there, we know it's important but it's also good to acknowledge that it looks different for everybody.
You can find more over on instagram @mummyrepublic or via our host @danniirodgers and if you want to hear more from our special guest, you can find Mikki at @themikkifisher2.0 or her business @the.redtent xx

A few years ago the world became seemingly obsessed with organisation overnight. We all started culling our wardrobes, thanking our old clothes as we turfed them and clearing out all the storage options kmart. Fast forward to now and outside of the hype, all we really want is a practical way to stay on top of the chaos. Because it goes a lot deeper than clutter and a clean house. But with the madness of raising a family, working and living life, is it really that simple?

They say that it’s a mans world and although in a lot of cases that’s still true, women everywhere are starting to forge their own path when it comes to their goals and desires, throwing away any concern about what is deemed conventional. We’re creating new paths, we’re making waves and we’re doing it whilst making babies. But the question still remains, can you really grow a business whilst growing a family? Let’s have a chat about it.

If we’re being honest, I think we’ve all thought about it. Come on, I bet you have at least once. Even Katy Perry said she kissed a girl and she liked it. It’s now a more open topic of conversation and slowly but surely the stigma is reducing, which is fantastic and incredibly needed. But when you’ve been conditioned from a young age that the normal way of life is to be in inverted commas straight, how do you know if you’re actually not? Especially if you’re already married, perhaps have kids…is it really too late to explore? Let’s find out.

We've all heard the term thirty, flirting and thriving but is there really a big difference from 2-9 to 3-0? For a lot of us it seems the answer is yes! Whether it's caring less about what others think, reducing our inner circle or having a lot less tolerance for bullshit, it seems that the introduction to our 30's is a great opportunity to do a cleanse of all habits, old ideals or even old insecurities...

We all know that there is no such thing as a normal family. With different dynamics in each household and one in 3 marriages ending in divorce, there are quite often other people outside of just your typical mum and dad involved.
As someone who has been through a separation with a child, navigated the single parent life and then the integration of a step parent, i can attest to the fact that it's not always easy and there is certainly no handbook to guide you.
But it's equally as difficult from the other side of the fence. Taking on the role of a step parent also has it's challenges and perhaps we need to make sure that we're giving both parties a voice...

So who has it harder? The stay at home mums or the working mums?
It's a debate that always sparks a great deal of passion from either side of the fence. But in a world where so many women work from home, work part time or are self employed, the categorization is no longer that clear cut. Can we not just agree that both situations have their positives and negatives and irrespective of where you land...parenting in general is hard! xx

Birth...it can be beautiful for some and traumatic for others but in either case and in any case, it's always a hot topic of conversation. Regardless of whether you choose to do it "naturally" in the woods or elect to have a C-Section, the truth is there is no right or wrong. I'm joined today by Dayna, midwife and mother of 4 children (soon to be five) to talk all about just how unique each experience is; not only for different mothers but also for the same mother with different children.
So in 2021 can we please normalise that no birth is "normal"? xx

When it comes to motherhood they say it takes a village; some are lucky enough to have one, some are able to turn friends into family and others are left wondering...where the hell is my village?
in 2021 we're expected to do and to be it all but it can be made a lot more difficult when you're expected to do it on your own. So let's have a chat about how to find and create your own village, whilst trying not to lose yourself in the process xx

If you watch Netflix or use social media, it's highly likely that you've heard of the new show Sex/Life. It's sparked a great deal of attention thanks to it's raunchy sex scenes, large *cough* assets and hot cast. But it's also become quite the topic between mums, not only due to all of the above but more so because of the underlying themes and the ups and downs experienced by the main character Billie.
Why? Because on some level, a lot of us can relate to that journey of matrescence and trying to find the balance between who you are now as a mum vs who you used to be...even if it's not quite as dramatic as hers.
In either case there is a LOT to unpack here and a lot of questions unanswered after the final episode of season one. So instead of chatting at the park whilst our toddlers play, i dragged in my girlfriend Layne (mama to twin boys) to have a debrief on all of it!!

I think we're all a little guilty of being the perfect parents...before we have kids of course!
That expectation vs reality can certainly be a shock to the system. Motherhood has a tendancy to have an impact on your world in all the ways; physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually. It can be a complete overhaul of the world as you know it...and sometimes, one you didn't even know you needed.
Davina Rankin and i chat about that motherhood evolution and just how much things have changed since she last made an appearance on the show in Season One.

Ah motherhood, it's a beautiful and magical time but it doesn't come without a lot of opinions, feedback and advice - love that for us.
Today i'm joined by the wonderful Krystle Brant to chat all about the feedback you get along the journey of motherhood; whether you're trying to conceive, during pregnancy or after the baby is born, there is always someone waiting to chime in....but on behalf of mum's - just don't.

Money is a topic that even in 2020 is still considered somewhat taboo and sadly for a lot of female's it's not something they have a great deal of education on. For some time there has been a mentality that we shouldn't worry our pretty little heads about it but long gone are the days where the male is the sole decision maker of the household.
I sit down with financial planner Kim Hope to discuss all things money; from savings strategies to reducing your mortgage and her techniques to avoid excessive spending in a world where our money is constantly at the touch of our fingertips.

Motherhood comes with a whole lot of ups and downs and sometimes our own transition inspires us to help others with theirs; that's certainly the case for Nikki MCCachon.
She talks us through her experience with post partum depression, which she believes was further driven by a lack of community and how it inspired her to create Mama Tribe which has now evolved into the Dear Mama Project - a space to educate and support mothers.
We delve into the notion of matrescence and talk openly about how important it is to not only nurture our children during this period, but also ourselves.

When we think about a child with a disability, we automatically assume that it's physical. Something we can visually see and identify; but many times it's not. It's the unseen and unheard disabilities that we tend not to discuss and as a mother trying to navigate this space, it can be very difficult.
Kate Nolen has spent four years trying to understand and support her beautiful daughter who has been experienced epilepsy, ADHD and other learning difficulties. She speaks openly about her experience, the challenges, the beautiful moments and how important it is for all mothers to understand that there is sometimes more than meets the eye when it comes to a child's behaviour.

Our generation is blessed with the support of medical advancements and when it comes to making a baby, IVF is no exception. But unless you've gone through the process yourself, it can be easy to misunderstand the gravity and intensity of such an experience.
Bron Delaivuna opens up about her IVF journey, talking in detail not only about the medical process but the emotional, physical and mental toll it all takes, proving that it's not the "easy way out" and sometimes the risk doesn't always result in a reward.
