Grow Little Wildflower ~ the podcast

Choosing a name should be a joyful experience, but for many parents, it turns into a source of stress. The outside opinions can weigh heavily, making you second-guess that beautiful name you love.Today, I want to introduce you to the "Let Them Theory" by Mel Robbins, which might just change your perspective on naming your baby. Remember, before your little one even arrives, their name has already been critiqued by everyone around you. Stop worrying about whether your choice is too different, too boring, or too trendy. Your baby’s name should reflect joy, love, and your unique vision for them. So lean into what resonates with YOU!Join in the conversation over on IG - @growlittlewildflower and let's learn to LET THEM together! Michelle x

The Names That Hadn’t Arrived YetHave you ever discovered a name after you’d already named your child and thought…“Oh wow - where was that name when I was naming?”In this episode, Michelle explores the idea that naming happens in seasons - and that loving new names later doesn’t mean you missed something or chose wrong!!This isn’t an episode about changing names or regret in the traditional sense...it’s about discovery, expansion and the names that simply hadn’t arrived into your orbit yet!!Michelle shares the names she’s grown to love over time, reflects on how naming styles evolve, and reminds you to trust that the right name will always find you when it’s meant to.A gentle, reassuring listen for anyone in the thick of choosing a name, or looking back with a full heart!

Reflections of 2025 & What’s to Come in 2026In this episode, I’m sitting with the power of names - the ones that stayed with me throughout 2025, the feelings they carried, and the stories they quietly held.I share a little more of my author journey, what it meant to see Tiggy True come to life, and why names are never “just” names. They shape identity, hold memory, and travel with us through every season of life - even when the naming process itself feels messy, emotional or uncertain.As we step into 2026, I’m embracing a softer, more honest way of showing up. No perfection. Just reflection, storytelling, and the deep significance behind the names we love.I’d love to know - what names are on your heart right now?✨ Every episode might feel a little different… and that’s part of the magic!!🎧 Listen in, reflect with me, and let’s keep the conversation going in 2026 xxFollow along on IG - @growlittlewildflower and YouTube too!

This episode is one I’ve been dreaming of for months, and it couldn’t have landed at a more perfect time, with Mother’s Day just around the corner.I’m joined by two radiant mamas and soul sister besties - Teresa Palmer and Sarah Wright Olsen - for a soulful, joy-filled chat all about the magic and meaning behind baby names. Both are currently expecting (cue the name wonderings!) and in true name obsessed fashion, we go deep into the stories, the signs and the sweet chaos that comes with naming our little loves!We talk:
🌿 The names they’ve chosen and loved (and the ones that got away)
🌿 Nature and gender-neutral names that spark something beautiful
🌿 The emotional rollercoaster of naming—from pressure to pure intuition
🌿 Why sharing name ideas openly (no gatekeeping here!) is so powerful
🌿 The sweet and hilarious moments when their kids share their fave namesThere’s laughter, there’s reflection and there’s so much heart. Whether you’re deep in the naming journey or just obsessed with baby names like me, this one will leave you feeling inspired, understood, and so not alone.Happy Mother’s Day to all the mamas out there - we see you, we celebrate you, and we honour the stories behind every name chosen with love!Enjoy this episode, I know you will love it! x Connect with us here:@growlittlewildflower@teresapalmer@Swrightolsen

But for me, it’s never just been about what name they choose - it’s about why.I want to know the story. Is it a name with deep family roots? A name they fell in love with the moment they heard it?

Trusting Your Gut When Choosing a Baby Name 💫 In this episode, we dive deep into the power of trusting your gut when choosing the perfect name for your little one. While many parents feel the need to have a name ready before their baby arrives, we’re here to remind you that your instincts can be a powerful guide, and it’s perfectly okay to wait until after birth to make that final decision. Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode: How your gut feelings can guide you toward the right name, even when your mind hasn’t fully caught up yet. Why it’s okay to feel uncertain about names before your baby is born and how meeting them face-to-face can bring clarity. The science behind the connection between your brain and gut - and why those "butterflies" you feel when thinking about a name are more than just a feeling. How to tap into your emotional compass and use it as a tool to find a name that feels right on a deeper level. A reminder that there’s no rush - your baby’s name will come to you when the timing is right. Whether you’re a parent-to-be feeling the pressure to have everything figured out or you’re open to letting the perfect name reveal itself after birth, this episode is all about embracing the journey and trusting yourself. Listen in as we explore why your heart might just know what your mind can’t understand (yet). Links & Resources: Connect with me on Instagram - Grow Little Wildflower for more baby name inspiration!
