HIGHS & LOWS OF THE WEEK Ep. 2

Ever found it tough to manage the daily chaos that ADHD throws at you while juggling the trials and tribulations of motherhood? Picture this: You've got an early morning job, and you're trying to navigate getting home in freezing rain, just to arrive home and find your prepayment electricity meter going on strike.
Our conversation takes a turn into the tough realities of building connections with other parents as our kids grow up. Moving from the playgroups to the school gates, we're navigating a new social dynamic. Gen opens up about the struggle to stay tuned in to the heart-wrenching reality of a war-torn Palestine. The empathy is real, the guilt is palpable, and finding the right balance feels like walking a tightrope.
As we nudge away from the guilt, we unpack the emotional baggage that COVID has dumped on us. Unable to physically help, feeling helpless, and guilt-tripping for avoiding the news, we are still spinning on the emotional roller coaster that the pandemic had us strapped into.
The light at the end of the tunnel is the joys of a new job as a massage therapist, after training before an unexpected second pregnancy. So come along, join in, and let's navigate this wild ride together through laughter, frustration, and some thought-provoking conversations!
