In this week's episode we have the honour of chatting with the beautiful Kellie Moses, better known as Soul Healing with Kellie. We have an incredible chat about reconnecting to our sense of purpose, our feminine and ourselves after having babies. We discuss some common blockages or limiting beliefs that we may carry around with us preventing us from reaching our goals and desires. Kellie talks us through the process of womb spiral, womb clearing and reiki. We also do an amazing guided breath-work session towards the end of the episode - don't mind us breathing into the microphones!!

We're wondering when it's appropriate to intervene with kids?? How much spitting, kicking and hitting do you need to put up with before you tell them to piss off?? (Whoops, did I just say that out loud? Lol.) Hannah's had her first day with Eli in daycare and to say it was an emotional time would be an understatement. All the feelings and all the mum guilt, who is this transition harder on, the kids or the mums? Tune into this week's ep for all the details!

They also have gifting options for mothers who experience grief and loss, to help them process their grief and heal. Additionally, they have a collection of beautiful, neutral gowns available to hire for as little as $30 for maternity and newborn photoshoots, and special events.  What better way to spoil yourself or a special mama in your life, than with a beautifully thoughtful gift from mother.nurture hampers and events.

Join us this week for our last episode of 2022!! Omg!! Where did the year go? We're sharing some of our funniest babybrain memories from the year and doing a recap on the year that was. Hannah has some very hilarious and very embarrassing stories from the Podcast Awards. Not sure if everyone is aware that we won a podcast award this year? Our million instagram stories and posts may have given it away 🤣 We explore the hot topic of swingers and realise just how vanilla we are. But can anyone tell us where we can sell photos of our feet? Or dirty undies? Looking for a quick buck without having to do any work for it, please and thank you. We also chat about whether ghosts and the afterlife is real, and what about Santa? Are we telling the kids he's real or is that going to damage them psychologically for life? Enter new #mumguilt for things you hadn't even thought about. We get a little fun surprise from Hannah's resident ghost at the end of the episode telling us that it was time wrap it up.

Do you remember seeing a Child and Family Health Nurse after your bub was born? You might have known them as a Community Nurse, who set you up in your Mother's groups and did checks on bubs development. This is a service we are so incredibly lucky to have access to in Australia, and this week we are joined by Jess Rasho, a Child and Family Health Nurse and Mother of two! Jess tells us all about the role of a CFHN and how they are able to support families in a huge range of ways, ones that we didn't even know about! This is a must listen for anyone currently pregnant or with young children, it's packed full of information about local support services that could save you money and time if you ever need them. Here are some additional support services you might not have known a CFHN can provide: - Setting you up with discreet support in domestic violence situations - Organising migrant resources for families who speak little or no English - Linking up with services to provide goods for baby if you are under financial hardship - Some child and family health centres have qualified IBCLC's who can give you breastfeeding support and advice for free Jess also shared with us her birth stories, including her vaginal delivery of her 4.8kg son!! Who doesn't love a good birth story?? And wow! This one deserves a gold medal. Jess has a beautiful business @prettylittleblock.co offering hand cut and hand painted custom wooden block names.
