On the Sofa with British Mums Episode 7 December 2023

12/04/23 • 50 min

It’s the start of December, and whilst we’re feeling truly festive, it’s important to remember that this is the time of year that comes with a lot of pressure, expense and mum guilt! This week, Emma and Charlotte are joined by the lovely Harriet Mandak, a Transformational Life Coach who the British Mums team have the pleasure of knowing personally as she worked with us for a few years! An absolutely gorgeous human being, Harriet talks about navigating the high expectations placed on mums in a time when emotions are high, and we have to say, this episode resonated with us completely! Have a listen and let us know what you think – we love hearing your feedback!
Listen here:
And don’t forget, we’re talking to Santa and Mrs Claus on our next episode, so if you want to give your kids a shout-out, ask a question or remind them to stay on the nice list – please email [email protected] or comment below!

Wow, we’re on episode 6 already, and we’ve had some amazing women join us, and this episode is no exception. Emma and I chatted to the lovely Irene Steele, who’s bringing the fun into fashion.
We talked about capsule wardrobes, co-ords, and sequins, and Irene also let us know about her favourite home-grown brands. We even realised David Beckham might have got his wardrobe organisation tips from Irene! As well as fashion, we chatted about all the upcoming festive events we’re hosting and also revealed our extra special guest who’s joining us for our Christmas podcast!

On The Sofa with British Mums... AND SANTA AND MRS CLAUS
This week’s episode is filled with sparkle and magic as Emma sits down to chat with the man of the moment – Santa Claus! And not forgetting the very lovely Mrs Claus, who Santa fondly introduced as his right-hand woman!
In this very child-friendly episode, we ask Santa and Mrs Claus all the tricky questions, sent in by his biggest fans! Hear more about Santa’s elves, how Mrs Claus makes the best hot chocolate and what happened that one time Santa really did get stuck in the chimney!
It’s truly the perfect episode to end the year, and thankfully we all made the nice list! Ho Ho Ho, and Merry Christmas everyone!
