Women’s Health Prevention: The Checks Mothers Put Last

Episode 19

Thursday, August 20, 2026 • Duration 46:52

Mothers are notoriously good at managing everyone else's health appointments, schedules and needs. But when it comes to their own health, they often wait until something is wrong, until symptoms become impossible to ignore, or until they finally have a moment to stop and think. In this episode of Things Nobody Tells You, Emmy sits down with Dr. Michela Sorensen, GP, mother of two and founder of Elme Health, for a conversation about why women put their health last, the guilt that stops us from prioritising ourselves, and why preventative care is not a luxury but a necessity. Dr. Michela shares her deeply personal story of losing her mother to stomach cancer at just 49, after three years of vague symptoms being dismissed, and how that experience shaped the way she practices medicine and the reason she founded Elme Health. She talks about the emotional female trope that still exists in healthcare, the challenges of advocating for yourself when symptoms are nonspecific, and why continuity of care matters more than we realise. This episode is for any woman who has cancelled her own appointment to take her child to theirs, dismissed her symptoms as just stress or just hormones, or quietly wondered if what she's feeling is worth speaking up about. Because your health matters. And waiting until something goes wrong is not the only option.

The Power of Your Voice: Music, Motherhood and the Songs our Children Remember

Episode 18

Wednesday, August 12, 2026 • Duration 42:41

Music has a way of meeting us in the hardest moments. In the sleepless nights, the endless days, the bath time battles, the bedtime negotiations and the moments when you just need something to shift the mood. In this episode of Things Nobody Tells You, Emmy sits down with children's musician and mother of two, Angie Who, for a conversation about the power of singing, the science behind music and why using your voice matters more than you think. Angie shares how motherhood changed her creative path, from playing in an alt country band to finding her muse in her daughter and creating music that has reached families around the world. She talks about the three years without sleep, the songs born at the dinner table, the sacred connection when your music reaches others and why singing is one of the most primal and powerful tools we have as parents. Together, Emmy and Angie explore the science of singing, how it syncs heart rates and brain waves, regulates oxygen levels and reduces stress for both parent and child. They unpack the shame so many of us carry around our voices, why Western culture has told us not to sing unless we're good at it, and why we need to bring singing back as community glue. This episode is for any parent who has forgotten to sing, feels too self conscious to try, or simply needs a reminder that if you can talk, you can sing. Because singing is not about being perfect. It is about connection, regulation, joy and making the hard things a little bit easier.

Debunking Fertility Myths and Finding Your Path to Parenthood

Episode 17

Tuesday, August 4, 2026 • Duration 51:49

Trying to conceive can carry so much more than a hopeful timeline. There is the waiting. The testing. The wondering. The baby shower invitations you quietly decline. The guilt when it does not happen easily. And for some families, the heartbreak of wanting another child and not knowing whether that dream will happen. In this episode of Things Nobody Tells You, Emmy sits down with fertility nutritionist Monique Cormack to talk about fertility, infertility and the myths that can make an already emotional season feel even heavier. Monique shares her own journey through IVF, identical twins, premature birth and the unexpected natural conception of her third child, as well as what her experience taught her about the limits of control. This is a conversation about evidence, support and taking proactive steps without getting lost in overwhelm. Because fertility is not always predictable, and needing help does not mean you have failed.

Annabel Karmel: Transforming How We Feed Our Kids

Episode 16

Wednesday, July 22, 2026 • Duration 57:51

Feeding kids can feel like one of the most emotional parts of parenting. From the first spoonfuls of solids to allergies, gagging, choking worries, fussy eating, snacks, family meals and the endless question of whether they’re getting enough, food can quickly become loaded. In this episode of Things Nobody Tells You, Emmy sits down with Annabel Karmel, the name so many parents have turned to when learning how to feed their babies and children. But behind the books, recipes, meals, app and global food brand is a deeply personal story. Annabel shares how the loss of her first daughter, Natasha, changed the course of her life, and how her second child’s feeding challenges became the beginning of a career dedicated to helping other families. Together, Emmy and Annabel talk about starting solids, introducing flavour, understanding gagging versus choking, the importance of iron, early allergen exposure, fussy toddlers, pressure at mealtimes and why feeding children is never just about food. It is about confidence. It is about practicality. And it is about helping children build a relationship with food that can stay with them for life.

A Former Detective on Keeping Children Safe

Episode 15

Wednesday, July 15, 2026 • Duration 01:32:25

Keeping our kids safe is not just about stranger danger. In this episode of Things Nobody Tells You, Emmy sits down with former police detective and child safety educator Kristi McVee for a practical and important conversation about the everyday safety conversations every parent needs to have. From body autonomy and safe adults to online safety, sleepovers, consent, disclosure and what to do when something feels off, Kristi shares what she learned from years working closely with children, families and offenders. This is not about scaring children. It is about giving them language, confidence and a clear path back to us. Because child safety is not one big conversation. It is many small ones, repeated often, in the everyday moments where our kids learn: you can tell me anything, and I will listen.

From Birth to Becoming a Mother

Friday, July 10, 2026 • Duration 39:07

Becoming a mother is one of life's most profound transitions, yet so much of what happens to your body, your brain and your sense of self is never talked about. In this special episode of Things Nobody Tells You from our Kiindred LIVE event, Emmy sits down with Nadine Richardson, founder of She Births and author, and Brooke Elliston, breathwork coach and mother of two, for an honest conversation about matrescence, birth, breath and the transformation that nobody prepares you for. Together, they unpack the radical neurological changes that happen from 35 weeks of pregnancy through the first two years postpartum, why your brain is literally rewiring itself to help you care for your baby, and the extraordinary gifts and superpowers that come with this transformation. They explore why vulnerability, intuition and empathy increase during this time, how the birth experience sets the foundation for what comes next, and why creating the right environment and support system is essential when everything feels so raw and new. This episode is for anyone navigating pregnancy, preparing for birth, in the thick of early motherhood, or simply needing a reminder that you don't have to do this alone and that rest is not a luxury but a necessity. Because matrescence is real, your body and brain are changing in extraordinary ways, and the more you understand what's happening, the more you can honour yourself through it.

Finding Comfort in Everyday Parenthood

Friday, July 10, 2026 • Duration 34:24

Parenting is rarely about perfection. It's about connection, flexibility, finding what works for your family and giving yourself permission to do whatever it takes to get through the day. In this special episode of Things Nobody Tells You from our Kiindred LIVE event, Emmy is joined by Mim from The Beanies and paediatric occupational therapist Nicole for a warm and practical conversation about the everyday tools, routines and little shifts that can make parenting feel more manageable. Together, they unpack why every child is unique, why parenting children in the same family can look completely different, and how finding routines that work for you matters more than fitting into someone else's mold. They explore sensory regulation, why toddlers crash and bash and move constantly, how deep pressure and movement help children feel grounded and organized, and why behaviour is often communication we haven't yet understood. This episode is for any parent navigating toddlerhood, sensory seeking behaviours, developmental differences, the chaos of multiple children, or simply trying to get dinner on the table while keeping everyone regulated and connected. Because parenting is messy, exhausting, beautiful and real. And sometimes the best thing you can do is put your baby in the carrier, add some sprinkles to your instructions, and remember that baby's going to baby no matter where you are, so you might as well go out and have fun.

Sleep and the Rhythm of Real Life

Friday, July 10, 2026 • Duration 30:17

Sleep is one of the most talked about parts of early parenting, yet it's rarely as simple as following a routine or sticking to a schedule. In this special episode of Things Nobody Tells You from our Kiindred LIVE event, Emmy is joined by Chris Minogue, Kiindred's OG sleep expert, and Steph Luck, mum of four, for an honest and practical conversation about baby sleep, daily rhythms and navigating the reality of raising children in a busy world. Together, they unpack why there's no one size fits all approach to sleep, how to recognise tired cues, the difference between daily rhythms and rigid routines, and why flexibility is essential when juggling multiple children, school runs, soccer practice and everything in between. They explore the witching hour, the feed bath feed sequence that can transform evenings from six weeks onwards, the myth of sleeping through the night, and why sometimes the best thing you can do is simply pick up your baby. This episode is for any parent navigating sleepless nights, feeling overwhelmed by conflicting advice, juggling multiple children, or simply needing reassurance that what works for your family is enough. Because sleep is never just about sleep. It's about balance, flexibility, knowing your baby, trusting yourself and giving yourself permission to change and evolve as your family grows.

Building Connection From Birth

Friday, July 10, 2026 • Duration 44:00

Connection with our children begins long before they can speak, and it continues to unfold in unexpected ways throughout every stage of parenting. In this special episode of Things Nobody Tells You from our Kiindred LIVE event, Emmy brings together Sarah Marie and Gen Muir from Connected Parenting for an honest conversation about bonding with our kids from birth onwards. Together, they unpack the science behind early attachment, why babies are wired to seek connection from their very first days and how that bond unfolds differently for every parent and every child. They explore the pressure so many of us feel to experience instant love, the reality of postnatal depression and anxiety, and why relationships with our children take time to develop in their own unique way. This episode is for any parent navigating the early years, feeling overwhelmed by the pressure to get it all right, or simply needing a reminder that you are enough and your child just wants you. Because connection is not about getting it right all the time. It is about showing up, meeting your child where they are, and remembering that more often than not, what they really want is you.

The Child Behind the Behaviour: What Meltdowns Are Really Telling Us

Episode 14

Wednesday, July 8, 2026 • Duration 49:08

Behaviour is communication, but in the middle of a meltdown, it can be really hard to remember that. In this episode of Things Nobody Tells You, Emmy sits down with clinical psychologist Emily Hanlon for a practical and deeply reassuring conversation on just this. Together, they unpack why anger is often a secondary emotion, how anxiety can show up in unexpected ways and why emotional regulation is not something children learn to do alone. It is something we support them through, starting with ourselves. This episode is for any parent navigating meltdowns, shutdowns, big feelings or the daily chaos of raising kids.
