🎧 Episode 3: Why being a ‘good mother’ is good enough
In this episode of Smart, Successful + Stressed Mums, we dig even deeper into the expectations modern mothers place on themselves—especially when comparing the idea of the perfect mum versus the good mum.
We explore:
Why the "perfect mum" is a myth (yes, even for celebrity mums!)
The emotional and physical resources that shape our daily parenting decisions
What being a good mum actually looks like (hint: it's not about perfect lunchboxes or perfect outfits)
A vulnerable story from my own recent recovery from oral surgery that made parenting feel impossibly hard—but still, I showed up
You’ll also hear why “good enough” really is enough, and how this shift in perspective can support not only your mental health, but your confidence and connection with your kids.
This episode is your reminder to release perfection, honour your current capacity, and show yourself some real grace.
🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to share this with another working or professional mum who could use this reminder.
