Realising I'm not saving the world, half term, restarting school, mother-son bonding & recent home educating thoughts

This week on Mum Talk Podcast I am joined by Lydia, a career and life coach from Works for Me coaching. Lydia has been a long time listener of the podcast and reached out after listening to me talking on the podcast about my personal career confusion and how I was struggling to map out the path forward. Lydia touches on why, especially mothers are hitting career confusion at this point in our lives and what the next steps can look like. Lydia shares with us how to clue hunt, find our core values, our strengths and interests, which then drive the future decisions.Enjoy.EmmaResources mentioned:Career Roadmap method: www.skool.com/work - the course is hosted inside this community that you can join for free, then find the course in the classroomLydia: www.worksformecoaching.com- https://www.linkedin.com/in/lydianewell/- www.instagram.com/worksformecoaching - https://www.facebook.com/WorksForMeCoaching/ Hosted on Acast.

This week on the podcast I am joined by Emma Bord, a personal trainer and mum of three. Exercise plays a huge part in my personal motherhood journey, not only to keep strong physically but to keep strong mentally, it's my constant, my me time so I am so pleased I can bring this conversation to you.Emma joins me this week as we discuss the realities of balancing motherhood and exercise, support system, the importance of exercise for mothers mental health, top tips to keep physically and mentally strong pre and post birth and an absolute bonus, get your pens and notepads handy, with the Sumer holidays approaching Emma shares with us a 10/20minute scalable workout we can squeeze in with the children running around or when the children are in bed. If you're anything like me, its required for sanity. Emma very much speaks from experience, after having children she completed all six World Marathon Majors, and winning the women’s category at the Dead Sea 50km Ultra, achieving a personal best of 3:16! Motivated to share her experience with mothers, Emma wrote her newly released book Mum Power, which is a brilliant read about the reality of balancing motherhood with training and how Emma rebuilt her fitness and confidence through small, sustainable habits rather than anything extreme.Enjoy.Mum Power: AmazonEmma Bord: Instagram Hosted on Acast.

Today I am diving into career confusion. After my DM's were inundated with messages off the back on a social post I put out there about my personal experience with career confusion and how I feel like I am rebuilding my life, I thought this week I would share some information on what contributes to women feeling career confused even more post birth; matrescence, hormones, niching, money, self worth and negativity and share some actionable advice I was given.EnjoyEmmaThe Visible Load: thevisibleload.comThe Visible Load: @thevisibleloadMum Talk: @mumtalkpodcast Hosted on Acast.

I cannot tell you how wonderful it is to have the mental headspace for a moment to be back here with you recording a podcast for your ears. As much as it is hopefully helpful for you, this is absolute therapy for me and I miss it so much! This month is the busiest month of the year possible for us as a family and for me with my new business. We have on average 1 birthday a week in May within the wider family and it is all go. Cake baking, celebrations, gift buying along with sports day, half term, bank holidays! How one is meant to actually fit work into all of that, the only way I can make it work is bed time after 2.30am. This week has also been the busiest business wise, after a year of building, The Visible Load is live. In this episode I'm sharing everything:What The Visible Load is and why I built itWhy I think it might be the thing that finally helps with the mental load that never switches off.Dot, the AI at the heart of the app who checks in with you Why I built this as a web app so it improves constantly without you having to wait for updatesThe honest truth about where the app is right now and where it's goingThis is early days and you are part of building it.Plus I share a founding member offer which I want you all to get your hands on first.

Screen time is one of those topics that can make any parent feel instantly guilty.This week Emma breaks down the brand new government guidelines on screen time for under-5s, what they actually say, what the evidence shows, and how screen time really works in her family.No judgement here, just honest chat and the bits that are actually useful.Spoiler: not all screen time is equal.Mum Talk Follow on instagram HERESourdough Guide HEREThe Visible Load Sign up the waitlist HERE Follow on instagram HEREAs always please follow, like, subscribe where ever you are listening!

Mum Talk is back and this week Emma is getting straight into it. After a few years away, she's back in your ears talking about the thing that's been dominating her world lately, overwhelm. Not the polished version. The real one. The shutting down, the vacant stare, the not being able to be present with your kids even though being present is the whole reason you made the choices you made.Emma shares her honest toolkit for managing overwhelm right now, from morning movement and grounding practices to magnesium butter, her sleep routine, and the app she's been quietly building to get the invisible load out of her head and onto something she can actually manage.She also talks about launching a small tech startup while relaunching a podcast, juggling a poorly child, Easter holidays approaching, and the very specific loneliness of struggling in silence while putting your face on for everyone else.Real, honest, zero fluff. Exactly what Mum Talk has always been.Next week: screen time, the new guidance, what it actually looks like in Emma's house, and whether any of us are getting it right.Mum Talk Follow on instagram HERESourdough Guide HEREThe Visible Load Sign up the waitlist HERE Follow on instagram HEREAs always please follow, like, subscribe where ever you are listening!
