Happy 2023

Holidays and half-term is easily anything but a break for parents. 
All too often we end up holding our breath, merely surviving the intense togetherness, the conflicts, the boredom and incessant needs of others - counting down the days to.. SCHOOL, WORK AND .. a break. 

Granted, this episode was recorded in the post summer holiday season, but what you'll hear in this episode is every bit as relevant for where we are now. 
Beginning of the new year. 

We explore why taking time out for ourselves when with our family feels rebellious and courageous. 
What it looks like to break with generational ideals around motherhood. 
And how you might be able to have a different experience next half -term should you feel inspired by what Louise shares in this episode.
