Changeover day as a co-parent can bring a rollercoaster of emotions; guilt, relief, sadness, overstimulation, even peace. In this episode, I share how I manage the emotional ups and downs of switching from full-time mum to solo time, and the small rituals that help me stay grounded. If you’ve ever felt off on handover day but didn’t know why, this one’s for you.
It's official, ive entered the numb era. That stage where you don't feel joy but you also don't feel pain. You just feel meh. You have no capacity for anything, you know you need to process stuff in your head but you just cant sort it out. Well that my friends is where i am right now and heres how to deal with it if you are here too.
One of the most requested videos in my TikTok Dm's is how we ended up living in Australia. Its been a long road, some of it easy and some of it challenging but Australia is where we call home and we wouldn't change it for the world.
Splitting Christmas, birthdays, and the big holiday moments can be one of the hardest parts of co-parenting. In this episode, I share how we handle it, what’s worked (and what hasn’t), and how I’ve learned to let go of perfection while still making it magical for the kids. Whether you’re facing your first shared holiday or trying to find a better balance, this one’s for you.
Divorce comes with a grief no one prepares you for. It’s not just the end of a relationship, it’s the loss of the life you imagined, the routines, the dreams, the identity. In this episode, I talk about what that grief really feels like, how it showed up for me, and why i am not celebrating. If you're in it, you're not alone,this one is for you!
This week, I open up about what it’s really like on the weeks I don’t have my kids — the silence, the freedom, the guilt, and the fear of what would happen if that ever changed. From learning how to sit in the quiet to worrying how I’d cope being full-time again, this episode is raw, reflective, and honest about the emotional side of co-parenting that no one really talks about.
School holidays as a co-parent can feel like chaos — juggling schedules, overstimulated kids, and the pressure to create magical memories. In this episode, I talk about the real behind-the-scenes of dividing holidays, managing changes, handling imposter syndrome, and letting go of guilt when things don’t go to plan. If your holiday feels more meltdown than magic, this one's for you.
This week, I’m sweaty, overwhelmed, and deep in the chaos of schedule changes. From sick kids and missed work to rearranged weekends and shifting plans, I share the reality of navigating co-parenting when the routine gets flipped upside down. If you’ve ever felt overstimulated, burnt out, or resentful when things change last-minute — this one's for you. Let’s talk about flexibility, boundaries, and learning to roll with it (even when it sucks).
In this first episode, I share the raw story of how I became a co-parent after my marriage unexpectedly ended in 2023. From heartbreak and solo parenting in a new country, to choosing peace over bitterness. This is the truth behind how it all began. If you’re navigating separation, co-parenting, or rebuilding life from the ground up, this one’s for you.
