No Crap Parties - Rethinking Kids’ Party Gifts, Pressure & Plastic with Charlotte Mason-Curl30 Jan 202600:44:17

Episode 4, Season 3: No Crap Parties - Gifting Culture and Plastic Consumption with Charlotte Mason-Curl

Kids’ parties are meant to be fun… so why do so many of us feel guilty, awkward, out of pocket and drowning in plastic afterwards?

In this episode, I’m joined by Charlotte Mason-Curl, founder of No Crap Parties and the Kids Party Pact - a movement helping parents ditch the waste, pressure and consumerism that has quietly crept into children’s parties and gifting culture.

Charlotte shares how she realised most parents hate plastic-filled party bags and gift pressure, and how she’s now using her marketing skills for the greater good - helping families make parties more affordable, more sustainable and far less stressful.

Together, we explore:

🎈 What’s gone wrong with kids’ gifting culture
From post-Christmas overwhelm to financial strain, clutter, social anxiety and the subtle ways consumerism shapes our children’s values.

🎁 How to do kids’ parties differently
Charlotte walks us through the Kids Party Pact, including:

  • Clear gift guidance
  • Alternatives to party bags
  • Normalising second-hand and conscious gifting
    Plus lots of practical, doable ideas that won’t make you “that parent”.

🧠 How to get others on board
Behavioural-science-backed tips for navigating resistance without offending (especially grandparents 🙈), plus smart ways to set boundaries and share wish lists that actually work.

This conversation is empowering, realistic and deeply relieving if you’ve ever thought “surely it doesn’t have to be like this?”

If you’re raising children and want to reduce waste, pressure and over-spending - without sucking the joy out of celebrations - this episode is a must-listen.

The 3 Most Powerful Unlearnings for Mothers (Lessons from the Pod in 2025)23 Jan 202600:21:19

Episode 3, Season 3: The 3 Most Powerful Unlearnings for Mothers (Lessons from the Pod in 2025)

Welcome to a very special episode of Unlearning with Laura.

As the podcast turns one, I wanted to pause and reflect. Over the past year, I’ve had the privilege of holding space for so many powerful conversations with expert guests, and certain themes have come up again and again.

In this solo episode, I’m sharing three of the most powerful “unlearnings” for mothers that have emerged from the podcast in 2025 - lessons that invite awareness, compassion and a deeper understanding of how much our subconscious, nervous system and conditioning shape our parenting and our lives.

In this episode, we explore:

✨ Why school avoidance is not “bad behaviour”
What I learned from my conversation with Jodie Jones about school anxiety, nervous system dysregulation, and why neurodivergent children struggle in rigid, outdated education systems.

✨ How self-sabotage runs beneath the surface
Insights from my episode with Becky Stanton on procrastination, perfectionism, self-worth and why your subconscious and energetics are always running the show - whether you’re parenting, building a business, or both.

✨ Raising children in a tech-heavy world
Reflections from my conversation with Jade Gooding on values-led living and why the conversation around tweens, teens and smartphones has never been more urgent - including current UK discussions around social media bans for under-16s.

🎁 Podcast Birthday Giveaway
At the end of this episode, I’m announcing a very special giveaway to celebrate one year of Unlearning with Laura - including a Power Hour HypnoCoaching session, my Bedtime Bliss bundle, and my Morning Mastery Toolkit.
Make sure you listen right to the end to find out how to enter.

FYI - these science backed bundles were created with so much love and have helped numerous mums in getting their kids to settle with ease and to enjoy their mornings again!

🤍 New Brand Partnership
This episode also marks the beginning of a new brand partnership with KARRI - a screen-free voice messaging device for children. If you’re navigating the smartphone conversation with your child, keep an ear out for more details (and a listener discount coming soon).

In this honest episode, I’m joined by Candice Mason, founder of Mother Cuppa Tea and certified tea sommelier.

Hypnosis to Beat Procrastination: Unlock Focus, Manage Phone Use, Take Action19 Sep 202500:20:14

Episode 12, Season 2: If procrastination has become your default tool to avoid, delay, or distract yourself, this hypnosis is for you.

In this episode, I’m guiding you through a powerful hypnosis session designed to help you release the part of you that resists taking action - and reconnect with the focused, capable, unstoppable version of you that’s always been there.

Originally created for a client who wanted to stop putting things off and finally move forward, this session gently unravels beliefs like “I’ll start tomorrow,” or “I’ll never get it all done anyway” and replaces them with clarity, momentum and deep self-trust. There is a focus on being heavily distracted by their phone.

If you want to stop procrastinating on that never ending mental-load to-do list - this is your time to break free from phone distractions and step into flow, confidence and action.

🎧 Listen daily for 30 days to embody the most productive, empowered version of you ✨

Unlearning Patriarchal S£x: Dévashi Shakti on Embodiment & Feminine Wisdom22 Aug 202500:47:40

Episode 9, Season 2: Reclaiming Intimacy: Dévashi Shakti on Patriarchal S£x & Conscious Change

In this episode, I’m joined by Dévashi - visionary, intimacy confidante, and founder of The Tigress Path®, a pioneering approach to female embodiment and somatic education. Dévashi is also the empathic provocateur behind the Beyond Patriarchal S*x project, sparking much-needed conversations about intimacy, power and collective healing.

We dive into:
🫂 What patriarchal s*x really is (and why it impacts both men & women)
🌺 How couples can begin exploring intimacy beyond patriarchal conditioning
✨ Why embodiment, curiosity & self-healing are vital for personal and collective change
🌀 Dévashi’s kundalini awakening at 19 that set her on her life’s path
📖 A sneak peek into her upcoming book Stop Having Patriarchal S*x and her transformational Bali retreat for women this October

In this conversation I open up about my personal journey as stress + burnout (plus birth trauma) didn't allow space for desire in early motherhood. All these barriers relate to the patriarchy paradigm. I loved this chat & I want you to view it as an invitation to reflect on intimacy, embodiment and the role we each play in shifting the collective consciousness.

Five Hours to Freedom: Amy Grilli on Fixing Work for Parents15 Aug 202500:48:58

Episode 8, Season 2: Amy Grilli on Five Hour Workdays, Fixing the System & Fighting for Parents

In this episode, I’m joined by Amy Grilli - co-founder of the Five Hour Club, a job board connecting career-driven parents with progressive employers who offer genuine flexibility. 

Amy’s journey began with a viral LinkedIn post titled “I’m a parent and I don’t belong on LinkedIn”, written after an identity crisis at the school gates. Having taken five years out to navigate new mum life (without losing her ambition), Amy created the role she couldn’t find - and sparked a movement for change in the process.

We talk about:
👶 Why the system is broken & the motherhood penalty (f*ck back to office mandates!)

💻 Building a business that works for parents, not against them

👨 Why 2 weeks paternity leave isn’t enough

📢 Becoming an “accidental activist” and being involved in taking the fight for flexible work to parliament

 🤝 The power of collaboration with charities like: Pregnant Then Screwed, Dad Shift & Working Families

📺 The BBC Panorama Doc we spoke about: Should we still be working from home?

 📊 What’s next for Five Hour Club - from an NHS pilot to coaching masterclasses and consulting on the Employment Rights Bill.

This conversation is for every parent who’s felt the juggle, who's felt like they've had to get demoted in order to earn, who's felt the motherhood penalty and every employer who wants to do better, and anyone who believes work should work for families - not against them.

Understanding & Releasing Resentment: for Under-Appreciated Mums09 Jan 202600:29:34

Episode 2, Season 3: The Epidemic that is Motherhood Resentment

Resentment in motherhood doesn’t appear overnight - it builds quietly, day after day, as the mental load piles up and your needs slip further down the list.

In this solo episode, I’m exploring the very real, very common resentment so many mums feel toward their partners, co-parents, workplaces, or even the systems around them - and why it can feel like a slow erosion of feeling seen, valued and supported.

If you’ve ever thought “my life has changed, but theirs hasn’t”, or felt like you’re carrying everything while silently seething… this one is for you.

In this episode, we explore how to:
🌿 Understand where resentment really comes from
🧠 Make sense of the invisible mental load and subconscious roles mums carry
💬 Shift out of silent frustration and passive-aggressive patterns
🧘‍♀️ Reconnect with yourself when exhaustion, overwhelm and burnout are creeping in
💛 Begin releasing resentment without guilt - and without blowing everything up (check my previous hypnosis episode for this - my most popular episode of this podcast so far!)

This episode is an invitation to stop minimising your experience, stop carrying it all alone, and start honouring your needs again - because resentment isn’t a personal failure, it’s a signal.

Episode 4, Season 2 : Kendall Platt on Mindful Gardening, Breaking the Cycle & Modelling Rest to Our Kids

What began as a practical way to spruce up her garden turned into something much deeper for Kendall - a way to finally quiet her busy mind and reconnect with herself.

In this heart-opening episode, I chat to Kendall, founder of Adventures With Flowers, about how tending to her garden transformed her mental health and sparked a mission to help other women reconnect with their own needs, through the healing power of horticultural therapy.

We talk about:
🌱 Why gardening became a sacred act of self-care after the birth of her daughter
🌱 The power of women connecting side by side - without pressure or pretense
🌱 Modelling rest, boundaries, and emotional awareness to our kids
🌱 Our views on homework, community connection, and gardening in even the tiniest spaces

Kendall’s work is rooted in breaking cycles, reclaiming space for joy and rest, and helping women find their calm - one plant at a time.

Whether you have a wild garden, a window box, desires for some green space in your corporate office, or a dream of slowing down, this one will leave you feeling inspired and grounded.

Episode 2, Season 2: Sibling Conflict During the Summer Holidays

Dreading the sibling tension with your kids already? You’re not alone. In this episode, I’m joined by my brilliant friend and parent coach, Jodie, for a real and relatable chat about how to handle sibling conflict - especially during the long summer break.

Please note that we recorded this as an IG Live a year ago, but it's too good to not repurpose!

We share key insights to help you better understand what’s really going on underneath the bickering (spoiler: it’s not about the red plate), how your own patterns around conflict might be playing a part, and how to step into the role of calm mediator instead of referee.

We cover:
💥 Nervous system triggers & reactivity
🗣️ Teaching kids to express their needs and say “no”
👶 Inner child work & why this can feel so hard
🫶 Why conflict isn’t bad - it’s an opportunity for growth

Whether your kids are pre-schoolers or tweens, this one’s full of compassion, practical tools, and a gentle reminder: you don’t have to fix it all.

The Loneliness No One Talks About (Also, The Pod Has A New Name!)26 Jun 202500:21:11

Episode 1, Season 2: The New Mum Loneliness No One Talks About

First off - thanks for listening to season 1 of pod, I've loved every minute and this episode takes us into season 2, and I've also changed the name of the podcast (take a listen to find out why)!


Maternal loneliness is a thing - and far more common than we think.
Whether you’re deep in the newborn haze, navigating solo parenting, or simply feeling disconnected from your old life and friendships… you’re not alone.

In this heartfelt episode, I’m speaking directly to the mums who feel isolated, unseen, or quietly struggling behind closed doors. I’m also calling in the mums with older children - because if you know someone on maternity leave or deep in early motherhood, there are some simple things you can do to support them.

You’ll hear:
💛 Why loneliness is so common in motherhood
💛 How the modern world has stripped away the village (and how you can find yours)
💛 Small steps that can bring more connection and support into your life
💛 And the importance of being that person who reaches out, checks in, and creates community

You deserve support. You deserve connection. And if you're seeking real life connection with other mums, please do check out the links below.

Hypnosis: Releasing Resentment - A Subconscious Reset for Overloaded Mums20 Jun 202500:26:01

🎙️Episode 20: Releasing Resentment - A Hypnosis Session for Overloaded Mums

If you're carrying the mental load and starting to burn out - this one's for you.

In this special hypnosis session, I’m guiding you through a calming, subconscious reset originally created for a mum of two who felt overwhelmed, exhausted and full of resentment toward her partner.

She was done with doing everything and feeling unsupported in return. This session helped her release the emotional weight, communicate more clearly from a grounded place, and start carving out time for herself again.

Whether you’ve been simmering in silent frustration, or just need a reset to stop the passive-aggressive spiral and feel more in control again - this practice will help you reconnect with calm, clarity and your voice.

Get in touch if you'd like to find out how you can work with me and receive your own tailored hypnotherapy/coaching.

Behind the Scenes: How My Clients Create Real Change25 May 202500:21:48

This episode is a BTS look at my 1:1 programmes for mums ready for real change.

I created this episode for anyone who's curious about working with me. After a recent conversation with a team member, I realised that it may not be clear how it all works. Whether you're on the fence, exploring your options, or just want to understand the process more clearly, this should answer everything you’ve been wondering about my online practice.

I walk you through:
🌀 What brings most of my clients to this work
🌀 How sessions are structured (and what’s in the client portal)
🌀 A case study of a recent client from my 4 Week Awakening programme
🌀 The difference between my 4-week and 12-week programmes

If something in you has been quietly nudging you toward a more joyful and easeful life, I hope this helps you feel more confident and supported in taking that next step. My mission is to help as many mothers as possible to feel good again, because they deserve it, and so do their kids 🧡 

PS. I forgot to mention, if you invest in my 12 week programme you receive a special gift in the post. Something to support you on your journey 🎁

Hypnosis: Ditch Alcohol, Reconnect with Your Empowered Self16 May 202500:21:05

If alcohol has become your default tool to relax, cope, or connect, this is for you.

In this episode, I’m guiding you through a powerful hypnosis session designed to help you let go of the part of you that once reached for the booze - and reconnect with the clear, confident, radiant version of you beneath it all.

Originally created for a group of women on their alcohol-free journey, this session gently unravels beliefs like “I need it after that day with the kids” or “everyone does it, I don’t want to be the odd one out,”  or "I'm socially awkward without it" and replaces them with calm, clarity and deep self-trust.

Whether you’re just beginning or already well along the path, this is your time to come home to yourself - free of shame, and full of power.

Laetitia Felix on Reclaiming Trust in Your Body: Fertility, Loss & Birth Trauma Healing19 Dec 202500:50:53

Episode 1, Season 3: Fertility, Pregnancy Loss & Birth Trauma with Laetitia Felix

This week, I’m joined by my friend, the brilliant Laetitia Felix - a Fertility & Pregnancy Loss Coach and Mind-Body Practitioner who supports women through unexplained infertility, pregnancy loss, birth trauma and beyond.

Laetitia shares her deeply personal journey to motherhood, having conceived naturally at 40 after a four-year journey through multiple losses. She walks us through her unique approach and how she weaves together mindset, somatic and spiritual practices to support women in regulating their nervous system, releasing inner blocks, and rebuilding trust in their bodies.

Together, we explore the emotional and energetic layers of fertility - and why the body’s sense of safety plays such a crucial role in conception, pregnancy and healing.

We also talk about:
✨ Healing from pregnancy loss and birth trauma - even years later
✨ Womb healing, ancestral trauma and lineage work
✨ How unresolved trauma can quietly impact everyday life and motherhood
✨ Laetitia’s experience working with baby spirits and this supported her too
✨ Nervous system regulation, embodiment and emotional release

As someone who has personally experienced Laetitia’s work (her EFT sessions were truly incredible), I can wholeheartedly vouch for her expertise, compassion and intuitive healing abilities.

Laetitia also shares details of her EFT and Angelic Reiki bundles - beautiful offerings for anyone wanting support to process pregnancy loss, birth trauma, or emotional healing.

🎧 This is a gentle, expansive and deeply reassuring conversation for any woman navigating fertility challenges, loss, or healing on her journey into motherhood.

Motherhood & Intrusive Thoughts02 May 202500:21:48

Episode 14: Motherhood & Intrusive Thoughts

In this episode, I’m opening up about something that so many mums experience - but so few of us talk about openly: intrusive thoughts in early motherhood.

If you’ve ever jolted awake in the night thinking your baby had fallen out of the crib, or that something terrible has happened - you’re not alone. I share my personal story of the early days as a chronically sleep-deprived new mum, waking in panic about all sorts of irrational fears. And more importantly - we explore why these thoughts happen and what you can do to feel calmer and more in control.

I explore: What intrusive thoughts actually are (and why they feel so real)
 🧠 The difference between postnatal anxiety and postnatal OCD
 🧠 What’s going on in the brain and nervous system during early motherhood
 🧠 Who is more prone to experiencing these thoughts, and why
 🧠 What can genuinely help

This episode is here to help you feel seen, supported and a lot less alone. If you’ve ever carried silent shame around your thoughts - please know, you’re not broken. You’re human. And there’s help.

Smartphones & Our Kids25 Apr 202500:26:49

Episode 13: Smartphones & Our Kids

In this episode, I’m diving into a topic so many of us are navigating in the dark: smartphones and kids.

Whether your child already has a phone, is starting to ask for one, or you're simply wondering when the “right time” is - this conversation is here to help you feel more informed and a lot less alone.

We’ll explore:
📱 Why it’s not your fault if you feel unsure or guilty about phone use
📱 What the research now shows about kids, screens and mental health
📱 The real risks - from addiction and cyberbullying to grooming and overstimulation
📱 What alternatives exist (yes, there are kid-friendly, safer phones!)
📱 How we can support each other as parents, especially around setting norms
📱 And why this conversation isn’t black-and-white - especially when it comes to neurodivergent kids

This episode isn’t about shame or judgement - it’s about community, clarity, and making conscious decisions with the information we now have.

People Pleasing & Saying No28 Mar 202500:18:11

Dr. Gabor Maté’s says that 80% of autoimmune diseases affect women - and people-pleasing is a major factor. Suppressed anger, self-sacrifice, and the pressure to always "hold it together" take a serious toll on your body and mind. Mums in particular are so conditioned to be doing it all and this needs to change.

In this episode, we’ll explore:
✨ The link between people-pleasing & chronic stress
✨ Why suppressed anger isn’t bad - it’s a signal
✨ How to release guilt, set boundaries & protect your energy

It’s time to break free from burnout and reclaim your emotional well-being. Listen now! 🎧

Discipline - Setting Boundaries without Shame21 Mar 202500:17:23

In this episode, we’re tackling a big topic - discipline. More specifically, how to set boundaries for our children without using shame.

So many of us were raised to believe that discipline meant punishment, fear, or guilt - but what if discipline could be something entirely different? What if it was about guidance, respect, and connection?

Today, we’ll explore:
✅ The true meaning of discipline (hint: it’s not about control!)
✅ Why boundaries make children feel safer, not restricted
✅ How to hold kids accountable without shaming them
✅ Practical strategies for setting firm, loving boundaries

And before we wrap up, I share about how shame silently holds us back in ways we don’t even realise.

If you’ve ever struggled with feeling guilty after setting limits, worried about being “too strict” or “too soft,” or just want to discipline in a way that builds connection rather than fear - this episode is for you.

Jodie Jones on Overcoming School Avoidance06 Feb 202500:36:20

Episode 3: Overcoming School Avoidance with Jodie Jones🎙️

This week, I’m joined by our very first guest - Jodie Jones from Nurture Infused Parenting! Jodie is a passionate parenting coach with a background in teaching and SEN education advisory. But her biggest lessons didn’t come from the classroom - they came from her own personal growth & conscious parenting journey.

Jodie's son struggled with anxiety related school avoidance so much that he was placed on a part-time timetable, and Jodie had to step away from her job to support him. What followed was a deeply personal journey of resilience, healing, and transformation. What we dived into:

✨ How Jodie navigated the emotional and practical challenges of school avoidance
 ✨ The school system and strategies that helped her son regain confidence
 ✨ Jodie's golden nuggets of wisdom that parents who are going through this can take away

We also explore:
 🔹 Why school anxiety is more than just “not wanting to go”
 🔹 The impact of nervous system regulation in both parents and children
 🔹 Practical steps to create a supportive environment at home

Jodie’s story is one of hope, empowerment, and the power of conscious parenting. If your child is struggling with school, or you simply want to understand more about anxiety and learning, this episode is for you.

Your Brain Creates Your Reality: The Science Behind Manifestation for Mums28 Nov 202500:23:22

Episode 19, Season 2: The Science Behind Energetics

In this episode I dive into the science behind manifestation and how you can consciously create your life - it's all about quantum physics and energy.

I talk about:

💫 How your brain filters reality and why you might be stuck in patterns of stress, scarcity, or overwhelm

💫 The role of your subconscious mind in influencing 95% of your thoughts, emotions, and energetic broadcast

💫 How to consciously tune your energy and focus to attract the life you want - more freedom, flexibility, support and abundance

💫 The observer effect from quantum physics and how focusing on what you want collapses infinite possibilities into reality

💫 Why 'wanting' something can actually block it, and how to shift into 'being' the version of you who already has it

I explain that they key is often to stop manifesting what you don’t want and start consciously creating a reality that feels effortless, joyful and aligned. This is what I teach in my programmes and has always been an important part of my work and life. I hope you enjoy it!

This week, I’m joined by the incredible Becky Stanton - a Manifestation Coach who helps women shift out of self-sabotage and step into their highest potential.

Together, we dive deep into what self-sabotage really looks like for mums and business owners - and how those sneaky patterns like procrastination, perfectionism, or overgiving often have roots in our nervous system, our self-worth, and our childhood years.

Becky shares her powerful SAFE Framework and we explore what it means to truly feel safe to succeed - because whether you’re a new mum, a side hustler, or a multi-millionaire CEO, your subconscious and nervous system are always running the show.

We also chat about:
✨ How to spot signs of neurodivergence and why a diagnosis isn’t always essential for self-understanding. Plus Becky's take on labelling herself.
✨ New motherhood, 'Self-Care Sundays', regulating our nervous systems & our inner dialogue
✨ The importance of finding grounding moments when you’re deep in the parenting trenches
 ✨ Self-worth, energy, and the subconscious layers behind business growth
 ✨ And of course… tarot/oracle cards, psychic channelling and a little bit of woo-woo magic 🌙

Becky also shares details of her current 1:1 voicenote coaching offer - a unique, supportive way to work with her if you’re ready to shift out of fear and into flow.

🎧 I loved this chat, tune in for some true words of empowerment.
