Gone Living, Will be Back With Notes!

At the school gates it can sometimes feel as though everyone else has life perfectly balanced, the career, the children, the household dynamic. In this episode, I explore how we define success, why we label one another by our jobs and whether it's possible to 'have it all'.

They say no two births are the same, and they were right. My second birth was more complicated and far more long-winded than my first. If you’re pregnant with your second (or just love a good birth story), come along for the ride.

Trigger Warning: This episode discusses miscarriage, pregnancy loss, and adverse screening results.At our 12 week scan, we were expecting reassurance. Instead, we were told there were concerns. What followed was a blur of tests, waiting, hope, fear and ultimately loss.In this very personal episode, I share the story of my miscarriage, from receiving adverse screening results, to navigating the heartbreak that followed. I talk about the uncertainty, the emotional toll and how this experience has shaped me.If you have experienced pregnancy loss or difficult scan results, I hope this helps you feel less alone. Please listen gently and take care of yourself.

A chat about pregnancy from the start and beyond - who to tell, what to book, gender reveals and the symptoms that come and go along the way.

We’re starting a short series on pregnancy and birth with my first birth story. It’s shared openly and honestly, so expect real talk and birth details...you’ve been warned!

We’re talking mum bods, dad bods and the invisible labour no one puts on the to-do list. This episode breaks down how gender disparity still thrives in everyday family life, even when we’re told things are “equal now.”

Signed up for NCT expecting birth tips… got a WhatsApp group full of friends instead. Also learned the odd nugget of useful info along the way!

I said I would go living and come back with notes, so here I am! The last series touched on a few topics, but this time I would like to make it all about women sharing knowledge and stories. I'd love to create a space where we swap what we know, connect and leave each other a little wiser...and maybe have a few laughs along the way!

I’ll be back in a few weeks with fresh ideas, better stories, and probably a few lessons I didn’t ask for but life gave me anyway.Until then, take care of yourself — and thank you for being here.

No passport. No five-star price tag. Just real laughs, dodgy weather, and memories that last longer than the sunburn. Because happiness isn’t all-inclusive.
