Heidi At Home – Détails, épisodes et analyse

This week on Heidi at Home, I’m joined by business and identity coach Lissy Puig for a deeply honest conversation about trauma, motherhood, overwhelm, relationships, and rebuilding yourself from the inside out.

As a single mum of three and founder who now helps women scale their businesses to and beyond the multi-six figure mark, Lissy shares the personal experiences that shaped her - including leaving home at just 12 years old, navigating trauma, emotional pressure, mental health challenges, and learning how to rebuild her sense of self through different seasons of life.

We talk about the invisible patterns so many women are stuck in without even realising; overthinking, burnout, guilt, emotional overwhelm, and the constant feeling of trying to hold everything together. Lissy explains how so much of what we experience externally is rooted in deeper thought patterns and beliefs, and how changing those internal narratives can completely transform the way we live, work, parent, and love.

We also dive into relationships, self-worth, identity in motherhood, and what it actually looks like to create a life that feels calm, aligned, and genuinely fulfilling - rather than simply surviving.

This episode is powerful, grounding, and full of perspective for anyone who feels exhausted by the pressure of modern motherhood and life.

In the very first episode of Heidi At Home, I’m joined by actor, voice artist, writer and founder of Mrs. OT, Kate Okello Tarrant.

A mum of three boys, Kate opens up about navigating motherhood during the pandemic, the identity shift that followed, and how one honest blog unexpectedly connected her with thousands of women online.

What began as sharing the realities of early motherhood soon grew into something much bigger - leading Kate to train as a breastfeeding consultant and launch The Mum Retreat, a series of events focused on maternal mental health, wellbeing, and meaningful connection for mothers.

Together, we talk about the pressure modern mums face, balancing ambition with family life, the importance of honest conversations including that of relationships, and why so many women are craving community more than ever before.

This episode is warm, honest, emotional in parts, and full of the kinds of conversations we don’t have enough.

What does it really look like to build a hugely successful business while raising a family?

In this episode, I sit down with Lisa from The Gut Stuff for an honest conversation about entrepreneurship, motherhood, ambition and the realities that often get left out of the success story.

We talk about growing a female-founded business alongside her twin sister, navigating the demands of leadership while parenting two boys, and the role paid support has played behind the scenes. Lisa also shares what it was like managing the pressures of a major acquisition while in the midst of new motherhood - balancing feeding, sleep deprivation, postpartum recovery and some of the biggest business decisions of her career.

This isn’t a conversation about perfection. It’s about the messy, complicated reality of building something meaningful whilst raising a family, and the choices, sacrifices and support systems that make it possible.

Whether you’re a parent, a business owner, or simply curious about what success really looks like behind closed doors, this episode offers a refreshingly honest perspective.

This week on Heidi at Home, I'm joined by therapist and maternal mental health specialist Becky Selbie for a conversation that I think every mother needs to hear.

Together, we explore the invisible "rulebook" so many of us are living by without even realising it. The unwritten expectations that tell us a good mum should always be patient, never lose her temper, enjoy every moment, keep the house tidy, succeed at work, and somehow hold everything together.

We talk about why so many mothers are struggling with perfectionism, guilt, overwhelm, burnout and the mental load, and why these aren't personal failings but often symptoms of trying to live up to impossible standards we never consciously chose.

Becky shares why modern motherhood feels so hard, how these invisible rules shape the way we think, and, most importantly, how we can begin to challenge them with more compassion, awareness and self-understanding.

If you've ever felt like you're constantly falling short, this episode will leave you feeling seen, understood, and with a completely different perspective on why motherhood can feel so overwhelming.

This week on Heidi at Home, I'm joined by Mariana Saraceni, speaker, happiness consultant, and mum of three daughters, for one of the most moving conversations I've ever recorded.

Ten years ago, Mariana gave birth to her daughter Olivia at full term. Despite her instincts telling her something wasn't right, she wasn't listened to, and Olivia was stillborn.

In this deeply honest episode, Mariana shares Olivia's story, the unimaginable grief that followed, and how that experience changed the way she views life forever.

Rather than returning to life as it was, Mariana made a promise to herself: to stop ignoring her own voice, to trust her instincts, and to create a life that felt meaningful, intentional, and true to who she really is.

We talk about motherhood, loss, resilience, happiness, and what it means to rebuild after your world has been turned upside down. Mariana also shares how she has chosen to honour Olivia's memory over the last ten years, including her incredible fundraising challenge, walking 100km throughout June in support of baby loss charities and families affected by loss.

This is an emotional conversation, but ultimately a hopeful one. A reminder of the strength that can exist alongside grief, and the importance of listening to ourselves, even when the world tells us otherwise.

This week on Heidi at Home, I'm joined by Becca Maberly, founder of A Mother Place, antenatal and postnatal educator, bestselling author of Nobody Tells You, and one of the most refreshingly honest voices in the motherhood space.

In this episode, we dive into the parts of motherhood that often go unsaid. Becca shares her experience of not loving every stage of parenting, feeling like she wasn't a "natural" mother, and the pressure so many women feel to enjoy every moment when the reality can feel very different.

Together, we explore maternal guilt, the mental load and those early years of motherhood. We also talk about how parenting evolves over time, why Becca has enjoyed some of the later stages of motherhood more than the early years, and what life looks like now as she navigates raising older children and teenagers.

We also discuss the importance of having open and honest conversations with our children about bodies, relationships and sex, and how Becca's own upbringing, with an obstetrician and gynaecologist father, has shaped the way she approaches these conversations with her sons.

Finally, Becca shares details of her new community, The Commune, a space designed to support women through the realities of modern motherhood with honesty, connection and support.

This is a warm, funny and deeply reassuring conversation for any parent who has ever wondered whether they're the only one finding parts of motherhood difficult.

This week on Heidi at Home, I’m joined by Cara Sayer, founder of SnoozeShade, mum, accidental inventor, and one of the women behind a product that has become a staple for parents around the world.

What started as a simple solution to a problem she was facing with her own daughter’s sleep grew into an award-winning business that changed the way families approach naps on the go. But behind the success story is a journey of resilience, determination, and learning as she went.

Cara shares how a difficult pregnancy left her in a wheelchair for three months, how motherhood inspired her first invention, and what it really took to turn an idea into a product stocked and trusted by parents worldwide.

We talk about the realities of building a business while raising children, the challenges of being a woman in business, the guilt, sacrifices, and pressures that come with entrepreneurship, and why safety and science have always been at the heart of everything she creates.

This is an inspiring conversation about spotting an opportunity in everyday life, trusting your instincts, and creating something meaningful from a problem so many parents face.

Whether you're a parent, a business owner, or someone sitting on an idea and wondering whether to take the leap, this episode is packed with honesty, wisdom, and encouragement.
