If you’re a long-term listener of KICPOD you’ll remember Producer Mandy! You might also remember that Mandy was producing the podcast when Laura opened up about her fear of not coping with kids, and Mandy said she felt exactly the same. Fast forward just over one year later and Mandy is now the proud mum of her first daughter, Lyla.

In this episode we asked Mandy back in the studio to sit on the other side of the desk and share about how she went from being terrified of having kids to being so stoked to be a mum. We also touch on Mandy’s decision to have a planned cesarean and the judgment she anticipated and copped from the decision, her journey to becoming a mum, and her advice to anyone who is feeling overwhelmed by the decision.
