Episode 5

These are a few of my (least) favourite things

Happy New Year!

Whatever you're up to, I hope you're having a great time.

In this episode I'm taking a walk down memory lane and looking at a few of the things from the first couple of years of parenting that I am VERY happy to be leaving behind.

Things like the backwards facing car seat, trying to get my child to sleep in the pram, breastfeeding, breast pumps and my tiny human not being able to talk so I'm left playing Sherlock Holmes trying to work out what the heck she needs.

I know people tell you not to wish away the early years, but honestly, there are a lot of things in the early part of parenting that just SUCK.

So it's time to say farewell to some of those things and hello to a whole bunch of new challenges (no doubt) in 2025!

This podcast was recorded on the lands of the Wangal people, of the Eora Nation.

I pay my respects to Elders past and present.
