Hello I’m Sophie Ellis-Bextor and this is my new series Spinning Plates where I speak to busy working women, who also happen to be mothers, about how they make it work. I am a singer and have released 7 albums in-between having my 5 sons who are aged between 1 and 16 so I spin a few plates myself. Being a mother can be the most amazing thing.. but it can also be hard to find time for yourself and your own ambitions. I want to be a bit nosy and see how other people balance everything. Join me while I speak to a host of interesting and inspirational women who’ve really made me think - and laugh, and sometimes cry.
Welcome to Spinning Plates.

Fun, Inspiring, Raw, Honest, Vulnerable, Real
Motherhood isn’t always picture-perfect, and The Motherhood Unplugged Podcast & Show dives straight into the raw realities, joys, and challenges of parenting. This is a space where mums can embrace the messiness of motherhood, explore taboo topics, and connect through honest, unfiltered conversations.
Motherhood Unplugged was born out of a desire to provide a community for mothers to share their stories, find support, and feel less alone in their parenting journey. It is a platform for raw, candid conversations about motherhood and parenting. Through honest and relatable discussions, I hope to inspire and empower other mums to embrace their journeys with confidence and authenticity. Each episode will delve into the unfiltered realities of motherhood, exploring topics that are often considered taboo or overlooked.
This podcast is for mums who crave open dialogue, real connection, and a space where their voices are heard. Listeners are encouraged to engage with the episodes by asking questions and sharing their thoughts as we tackle the complexities, joys, and challenges of parenting together.
What to Expect
• Authentic conversations with a variety of guests, from mums sharing personal stories to experts offering practical advice. • Topics ranging from self-care and mental health to parenting struggles, triumphs, and everything in between. • A judgment-free zone where vulnerability is celebrated, and no topic is off-limits.
Join me on this incredible journey as we redefine what it means to be a modern mum. Let’s connect, inspire, and grow together—one honest conversation at a time.
