  • 15. Is It Child Abuse or Good Parenting? The Internet’s Obsession With Mum Shaming and Why It Has To Stop!
    Mar 11 2025

    Whether it's on Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, Mumsnet, or elsewhere, the judgment and cruelty some mothers experience online is shocking. From breastfeeding choices to sleep training, house cleanliness, and even how someone becomes a mother, the internet seems to think it has a say in it all. In this episode, I break down why this needs to stop, the damage it causes, and why we need to support each other instead of tearing each other down.

    In This Episode, I Cover:

    • The surge of online mum shaming and why it’s so harmful

    • The recent backlash against Lily Collins and the wider implications of judging mothers

    • The brutal comments mothers receive about breastfeeding, sleep training, and parenting choices

    • Why no one has the right to judge another mother’s experience

    • The power of stopping and reflecting before shaming others

    • Why “let them be wrong about you” is a phrase to live by

    Mar 4 2025

    In this raw and unfiltered episode, I open up about one of those nights where everything felt like it was spiraling out of control. From Jackson’s acrobatic nursing routines to the overwhelming mix of exhaustion, anger, and guilt, I share the honest reality of a mom struggling to hold it all together. This episode isn’t about having it all figured out. It’s about acknowledging that feeling overwhelmed doesn’t mean you’re failing; it just means you’re human.
