Description

I'm Aisha O'Reilly and my mission is to have safe spaces for moms to share their truths. 

We haven't been shown the full picture of motherhood, so this podcast is a collection of conversations with mothers sharing some of the untold stories of being a mom. Whether you're a first-time mom trying to figure out your new baby, a mommy to a toddler full of tantrums, trying to conceive, or a seasoned mom who parents her own way, know that you're not alone. 

You're not the only mama who doesn't fit the image of a perfect mom. LET'S CHAT: @aishaandlife on all platforms. BLOG: aishaandlife.com **All music generously provided by ShabZi Madallion: @ShabZiMadallion www.shabzi.co.za
