Get to know your hosts!

We’ve had lots of beautiful new listeners join us recently so a warm hello to you 👋 we’re Chelsea + Emma! We host this podcast - our incredible passion project - alongside our paid work and motherhood.

Chels has 2 daughters, is a teacher and has recently moved to a sweet little town in central Vic. Em is mother to 1 boy and works in research and data analysis. We’re in our 30s and launched this pod to share stories of birth, mothering and parenthood so we can learn and grow from the collective wisdom we all hold, and shift the narrative of what it means to mother in 2024.

Listen to this ep to hear a bit more about us - what we’re loving about this season of motherhood, what we’re growing into and out of, and what smutty books we’re into 😏

This ep was powered by caffeine and some end of year delirium.

This podcast was recorded on the unceded lands of the Wurundjeri Wilam and Boon Wurrung/Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation. We acknowledge that sovereignty of the lands on which this podcast was recorded was never ceded and pay our respects to the original storytellers of this land.
