Redrawing the Lines: Boundaries, Worth, and the True Value of Motherhood


Welcome to this powerful new episode of The Happy Mama Movement Podcast.

Today, I’m joined by Gifty Enright — wellbeing and diversity expert, author, and internationally respected leadership coach. With her signature wit and wisdom, Gifty challenges the status quo and reminds us that the job of raising the next generation isn’t just important — it’s foundational to our entire society.


We talk about:

  • The Lines We Draw Define the Lives We Lead Why setting boundaries starts with self-worth and how mothers can reclaim both.
  • Counting the Invisible: The Unpaid Ledger of Motherhood The hidden labour of motherhood and the data-backed case for equitable living.
  • Let the Children In: Raising Capable, Not Coddled How children benefit from being part of the household ‘enterprise’ and why it's time they pull their weight.
  • From Homefront to Boardroom: The untapped management, negotiation, and crisis skills motherhood builds and how they should translate to the workplace.
  • The Rebrand We Deserve: Why Gifty believes motherhood needs a full PR rebrand


This conversation is a call to action and a celebration. I hope it leaves you feeling grounded in your worth and inspired to start drawing clearer, bolder red lines because you're not just doing important work, you're doing essential work. .
