This episode is not just about hair but it’s really about identity.The comments we grew up hearing. The beliefs we inherited.And the messages we’re now passing down to our children, especially our daughters. This is a reminder that the way we talk about hair shapes how our children see themselves.We’re reflecting on the messages we received growing up and asking how we can raise daughters who feel confident in who they are.💬 What’s one thing you’re unlearning about hair?
Friendship before kids is one thing.
Friendship after kids? Completely different conversation.
Suddenly it’s missed calls, delayed replies, cancelled plans — but deeper love.
Less time, more grace.
Fewer hangouts, stronger understanding.
In this episode, we’re talking about how motherhood shifts friendship, who stays, who drifts, and how love can still exist even when life looks nothing like it used to.
If you’ve ever felt guilty, distant, or deeply grateful for a friend who gets it , this one’s for you. 💛
Listen, being a working mum in this economy should come with hazard pay. I mean, negotiating for 3 hours to bathe your baby? bosses asking, “Are you sure you’re in the right industry? women resigning with zero plan because the stress is actually so brutal and society undervaluing motherhood unless it comes with a payslip.
Motherhood is work. Real work. Invisible work. Unpaid work. Valuable work. And every mum deserves dignity, boundaries, and choice.
Sleep is supposed to be “simple,” right?
But for new mums, it becomes a whole emotional, physical, and mental journey. This week, we sit down to talk about the sleepless nights and days nobody warns you about, how it affects mothers, partners, identity, and everything in between.
It’s vulnerable. It’s funny. It’s necessary.
"Imagine your brain quietly reshaping itself, forming new pathways, sharpening instincts… All to prepare you to love, nurture, and protect a tiny human. 🧠💕This week, we talked about something so mind-blowing — neuroplasticity.
The idea that your brain can grow, change, and heal even as an adult.If you needed a reminder that you are not stuck. You’re evolving, rewiring, becoming. Then this is it🌱
What changes have you experienced as a mum and how did you learn to live with the change?
I remember seating there thinking, "Wait—Another CS? That's What I Signed Up For!"Everything was going perfectly… until that 36-week appointment.One sentence changed everything I had planned for my birth.What do you do when the person you trusted the most suddenly changes their mind?Join the conversation as we open up about the shock, the anger, and the strength it took to stand my ground.
I kept saying, ‘My baby is dead,” not because I wanted to believe it, but because I needed the world to understand what my heart already knew.
In that moment, everything changed. I had come in carrying a child, and I was leaving without her. But even when my arms were empty, my heart didn’t know how to stop loving or how to stop hurting.
This is for every mother who’s carried love and loss in the same breath, you are not alone,Your story matters. Your baby counts, and your love still lives on.
