EP 133 | Pep Talk Series - They Aren’t Mind Readers
This episode is the third pep talk in a little series I’m sharing to celebrate A Mother’s Mind Membership now being a self-paced course you can join anytime.In this one, I talk about something I see all the time in my coaching… when we expect our people to just know what we need, how we’re feeling, or what’s going on in our head.I share how that usually plays out (hello, silent resentment) and a few things you can try instead to feel more seen, heard and supported.Short, practical and packed with love.

EP 130 | Why I believe it is possible to switch your brain off
In this episode, I’m sharing why I believe it is possible to learn the skill of switching your brain off (even if it’s just for a moment) and why that belief has been one of the most important mindset shifts in my own motherhood journey.There’s a deeply ingrained story in our culture, that a “good mum” always has a million tabs open in her mind.Always on. Always thinking. Always holding it all.But what if that didn’t have to be true?In this episode, you will learn:- The invisible rules we’ve absorbed about being a ‘switched on’ mum- Why “mental load” doesn’t have to mean mental exhaustion- How belief is the first (and most overlooked) step to change- The difference between action and undercurrent belief- How I started rewiring this belief in my own life (and how you can too)This one might feel a bit stretchy, but it’s one I want you to hear, because this shift has changed how I show up in my day to day life in huge ways. And I believe it’s possible for you, too.Resources for youJoin my email list of beautiful mums here to stay in the loop, feel less alone, and get the pep talks you didn’t know you needed.Download my free A Mother’s Mind Morning Musings guide — 10 simple prompts designed to help you create more space for yourself and feel more supported, in just 10 minutes a day.A Little Moment to Just Be Me Journal – This is THE journal that I use in my days when working through this exercise!
