On The Sofa with British Mums - Episode 16 with newly published author Helen Farmer
In this week’s podcast, we are joined by Helen Farmer, British mum, journalist, presenter, radio host and now, author – a woman of many talents. Helen joins Emma and Hannah from the British Mums team to talk about her new book ‘My Mummy’s Secret Adventures’ which is out now!
We chat about Helen’s inspiration behind the book, her gorgeous girls and their endless and slightly obscure questions. We talk about parenting in a modern world and navigating the different ages, mum guilt and tips and tricks we all do to ensure we’re present and available for them.
Helen shares her thoughts, feelings and vulnerability about putting her words on paper for the world and how her audience - children, are the most honest and open critics. And we even get a little sneak peek on what’s coming next!

On The Sofa with British Mums - Episode 17 with Dr Teizeem Dhanji from Sage Clinics
This week, Emma and I are joined by the lovely Dr Teizeem Dhanji, a Consultant Child & Adolescent Psychiatrist & Eating Disorders Specialist, to discuss picky eating, when to start worrying, and when to seek help.
All of us recognise ‘fussy eating’ in ourselves, family members or friends. While this can be a normal part of development for some children, it can also signal a deeper issue.
The key takeaways from this week’s episode are that you are definitely not alone, there is plenty of support available, and it's crucial to seek help early.
