6: Can You Even Afford It

DISCLAIMER: This week we faced some audio technical difficulties but we couldn’t not bring you another slice of the realness, after all this is a real & honest podcast (& we are just two mum learning, IT ALL, as we go!) So if you’re here for the tea, thanks for listening, if it’s not for you this week, we hope you’ll still join us next week! Right, let’s get into it;  ‘She’s just a mum!’, ‘She just goes for coffee and walks in the park!’, ‘I didn’t even know she wanted another one!’, ‘How can she be tired?’, ‘Can she even afford it?’ Are all questions we’ve heard or had directed at us on our motherhood journeys, but did you ask for that person’s opinion? & how did it make you feel? This week we dive into taboos around children and motherhood, we talk openly and honestly about shifting from office boss to head of the home, the impact choosing to have another baby can have on those around you and how we feel about the popular statement ‘oh I’m just a mum’. Can we reinvent this narrative? Can we enable others with, the room to make choices for their family, without judgement? Can we cheerlead each other better? This conversation will really give you something to think about, no matter your current parental status & we can’t wait to hear your thoughts & reflections! — If you would like to share your motherhood wins or wings with us please slide into our DMs @voicenotevaultpodcast  Or show your support by sharing, liking, rating and reviewing this show wherever it is you get your podcasts.  —  TikTok @voicenotevaultpodcast  Email [e-mail] Original music by Rob Sell & Paddy Gervers
