Abby Bridgeman (@theearlydaysnewzealand), y'all. She has quickly become one of my favourite people, and I am really grateful to this podcast for introducing me to her.
She wears so many hats: nurse, mum, neurodivergent, parenting educator, total badass, and we get into most of them on the pod!
I could yap on for a long time about how much I appreciate and value her education and her friendship, but I think it's pretty evident in the episode. I am so grateful to her for her vulnerability and trusting me to share her story on this platform. She really goes there and that is what makes this podcast good. I can only share as much as the guest shares. And Abby shared.
If you're a parent looking for some evidence-based, practical, actually helpful, easy to understand, calm down your anxieties, parenting education, Abby is ya gal.
I talk about it in the episode, but a heads up that in a month's time there will a month break from posting podcast episodes as the first season is 20 episodes. When I return for season 2, I will be posting episodes fortnightly. Just looking ahead to going back to full time work, I'm having to shift things to make it alllll a little bit workable. Hopefully eventually I will be able to go down to part time employment and part time with the podcast and return to weekly posting, but that's still a while away! I hope you all understand that I'm doing this to avoid burnout and make sure that I can keep posting on a consistent schedule.
While you're here, why not do all the things?! Follow, like, subscribe, rate, review, share. Or maybe do just ONE of the things? The stats show me that lots of people who listen to the pod aren't actually subscribed, which, wild! So go ahead and save yourself having to search for the pod, and just click subscribe.
