Grief, Motherhood, and Coming Home to KOTOT

lundi 20 juillet 2026 • Durée 27:39

Ahhhh this is a hard one for me because this episode is less of an episode and more of a check-in with my KOTOT community and to some degree also with myself. I've been away for a while and I am finally ready(ish) to share why: My dad passed away.

KOTOT is about keeping on top of things as mothers but I have to tell you, I haven't had a clue how to keep on top of this one. I've been trying to navigate it all as a mum, as a daughter, as just a person trying to hold it together: the build up, the loss and quite frankly I don't have the answers. I don't even know what half of what I'm feeling actually is some days but I'm taking it one step at a time. I wanted to come back to you guys because you're my community. This is exactly the kind of thing I don't want to sit with alone, and I don't think you should have to either. Grab your tea (even if it’s cold now) and let's catch up.

12| Mothers Day 2026, lets catch up

Épisode 12

dimanche 15 mars 2026 • Durée 20:45

Happy Mother’s Day

After a "little" break and seven months of navigating life postpartum with baby number three, I felt like this was the perfect moment to sit down, press record and reconnect with my mum village.

This episode is exactly what it sounds like, a proper catch-up. The kind you’d have over a cup of tea with the friends who just get it. I’m sharing a little about what the last few months have looked like behind the scenes, what motherhood feels like in this season of life, and why I felt it was time to bring Keeping on Top of Things (KOTOT) Motherhood back again.

With International Women’s Day just behind us, I’ve also been reflecting on the strength, resilience, and everyday magic that women carry, especially mums carry. Sometimes we’re so busy keeping everything going that we forget to pause and recognise just how much we’re holding.

This space has always been about real motherhood. Not the perfectly filtered version, but the honest one. The messy, beautiful, overwhelming, heart-expanding reality of it all.

So wherever you’re listening from, whether you’re doing the school run, folding laundry, feeding a baby, or grabbing five minutes of peace, I’m really glad you’re here.

And to every mum watching this today: Happy Mother’s Day. You are doing better than you think.

Let’s get back into it

03| Finding Your Village: Embracing Support and Trust in Motherhood

Saison 1 · Épisode 3

lundi 13 janvier 2025 • Durée 55:43

In this week’s episode, I am joined by the lovely Tariro. She is a fellow mum to a wonderful 2 year old boy and she kindly shares her journey of discovering the importance of building a village during motherhood. She opens up about the struggles she faced as a new mum, from feeling isolated to the overwhelming pressure to do it all alone.

Tariro discusses how she learned to let go of the myth of the "supermum" and embraced the power of asking for help. She shares personal anecdotes about the challenges and rewards of trusting others with her child, and how that became the foundation for deep, supportive relationships.

Throughout the episode, we explore her practical tips for finding her own village, the emotional growth that comes with leaning on others, and the transformative realisation that parenting isn’t meant to be a solo journey.

This episode is a comforting reminder that it’s okay to ask for help, and that building a community can make all the difference in navigating the highs and lows of motherhood.

In this episode, I’m joined by Erica, a great mum of two boys, who shares her journey of navigating motherhood with unapologetic authenticity. Together, we explore how embracing your true self can create a foundation for raising grounded, secure, and confident children.

We’re back with a bang, mamas! After a little time away (and welcoming baby number 3 into the world ), I’m kicking off this season with a solo episode straight from the heart. This time, I’m sharing my latest birth story — one that didn’t go to plan but turned out even better than I could have imagined. I’ll be opening up about how this experience helped me heal from the trauma of my very first birth and how it’s shaped my journey as a mum today.

09| Happy Mother's Day 2025

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

dimanche 30 mars 2025 • Durée 23:21

Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible moms out there! Today, I want to take a moment to celebrate us—the heart and soul of so many families. Motherhood is a beautiful, fulfilling journey, but it also comes with its twists and turns. That’s why today, we’re talking about something that often gets pushed to the bottom of the to-do list: self-care.

We all give so much to those around you, and as hard as it can be sometimes, we need to remember, we can’t pour from an empty cup. Whether it’s five minutes of deep breathing, a quiet cup of coffee, or a full day to yourself, taking time to recharge is not selfish—it’s essential!

Let’s take a moment for an honest reflection on how we’re managing self-care. How are we truly managing our self-care? Are we really setting aside time for ourselves amid the hustle of daily life? Are we giving ourselves the same love and attention we give to others?

In this episode, I share my thoughts on the importance of checking in with ourselves, understanding that self-care isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. And remember, it’s never too late to start. Whether you’re looking to add small moments of peace into your day or planning a complete lifestyle shift, every step toward caring for yourself counts.

Wishing you a day filled with love, joy, and well-earned relaxation. Happy Mother’s Day!

lundi 10 mars 2025 • Durée 01:05:00

In this incredibly open and honest episode, I am joined by the wonderful Sabrina, a first-time mum, as she opens up about the many changes and challenges she faced when she became a mother. Sabrina shares her personal journey, shedding light on the unexpected emotional and physical shifts that come with motherhood.

She talks candidly about the struggles of balancing her own identity with the demands of being a new mum, and how she's been working to better understand herself amidst the transformation.

Throughout the conversation, Sabrina touches on the things that often go unspoken in motherhood—the feelings of isolation, guilt, and the constant pressure to be perfect. We dive deep into the emotional rollercoaster of new motherhood, discussing the moments of self-doubt and the small victories that make the journey worthwhile.

We also dip into the taboo subject of sex after childbirth. We talk about the challenges, the changes in intimacy, and the complexities of navigating physical and emotional connections with a partner while adjusting to motherhood.
