Mothergroup The Podcast

We are all Burnt Out, can anyone truly be a Perfect Mother, and is it ever OK to comment on a mother's ambition after she has had a child??? (Article Two is from The Guardian* - apologies for forgetting to announce that, a sign of our burn out perhaps!!)

We discuss all of this, and more in today's episode. Joy has had a better week, and Caitlin hasn't thrown any watermelons so everyone is winning. It is also Leo Season so time to put your best foot forward.

We hope you have had a good week, what has gone well?? What hasn't??? Come and find us on instagram and join the conversation xx
