The holiday season is magical but for us mums, it’s also overwhelming. In this special bonus episode of How Motherhood Changed Me, we’re joined by the incredible Genevieve Muir from Connected Parenting to unpack how to survive the chaos of Christmas.

Gen shares practical advice on managing the never-ending to-do lists, navigating packed social calendars, and staying sane when the kids are melting down. We also dive into prepping your little ones for those big family gatherings, and tackling tricky conversations about Santa with older children.

Whether you're feeling the festive stress or just want tips to make the season more joyful, this episode has something for every mum. Tune in and take a deep breath - Christmas doesn’t have to be perfect to be meaningful!

Do you believe in mothers' intuition? That gut sense or ‘knowing’ that something may be up with your child…

It’s come up a few times on How Motherhood Changed Me, and so to wrap up season 2 we’re going to do some reflecting as we explore the topic a little more.

We also speak with psychic grandma, Julie Lewin to hear her thoughts, and we look to the future and get our cards read!

Thank you for being on this ride with us.

Motherhood has a profound way of forcing us to face our demons… even ones we didn’t realise we had buried inside.

In this episode of How Motherhood Changed Me, we chat with former reality TV star, author and content creator Tara Pavlovic-Shepherdson whose life has transformed since becoming a mum of two.

She tells us about the “woo-woo” therapy that’s helped heal forgotten childhood wounds, how prioritising exercise and improving her diet has made her a better mum, and how proud she is of the way she’s raising her babies with husband Nick.

There’s a reason we fell in love with her on The Bachelor; this mumma always keeps it real!
