Join me, Jenna Folarin, in this first episode of The Inspiring Mums Podcast where I share my story with you.

I'm honest about how tough I found motherhood the first and second time around, what I did to help myself cope better and how I'm doing now as a mum of three.  


I talk about:


🌟Who I am - as a Coach and a mum of three


🌟Why I wanted to start the Inspiring Mums podcast - one of the reasons being that I love chatting!


🌟How my experience of motherhood led me to retrain as a Coach - I talk about my recovery from post-natal anxiety


🌟What life looks like for me now - mainly just trying to keep up with the constant juggle!
