  • 17 | Why Politics Won't Save Us: Stop Letting 'Them' Control You
    2024/11/20

    In this episode of My Mama Summer, I dive into why politics won’t save us and explore how we're often subconsciously handing over control of our lives to external forces—whether it's politicians, media narratives, or societal expectations.

    Drawing from my own experiences as a non-voter and my perspective on political systems, I challenge the common belief that change comes solely from electing the “right” leaders. Instead, I invite you to look within and reclaim your own power, responsibility, and inner peace, no matter what political season we’re in.

    I share reflections on compulsory voting, the emotional manipulation of media, and the divide that politics creates in our lives, often pulling us further from our own sense of purpose and peace. Together, we question why we give our personal power away and what it looks like to genuinely take that power back by focusing on inner growth and healing. Featuring thought-provoking quotes and a powerful narrative inspired by Eileen McKusick, this episode is a call to look beyond the political theatre and connect with what really drives us: the courage to be true to ourselves, the compassion to understand others, and the clarity to focus on what we can genuinely control.

    Join me as we explore the inner journey that leads to real change—the one that begins in each of us.

    Warning: This podcast is not a highlight reel. (And I think that's a refreshing thing in a world of superficiality and false pretences.)

    Go behind the scenes of my life as I build an online business, raise a family with intention, live abroad in a new country, and unpack trauma, programming, and reparent myself openly in the public realm.

    In every episode, you’ll get insights into the depth of what it really takes to build a business, whilst being a present mama, living a life outside the box, and doing the work it takes to be who we’re meant to be.

    My Mama Summer is my journey to becoming whole.

  • 16 | Bringing Peace To Parenting: Reclaiming Ritual and Rhythm with Meagan Rose Wilson
    2024/11/13
    In this episode of My Mama Summer, I sit down with Meagan Rose Wilson to explore the power of rhythm, ritual, and reverence in parenting. Meagan, a passionate advocate of Waldorf-inspired parenting, shares how cultivating these principles brings a calming, nourishing rhythm to family life. We discuss how rhythmic routines can help children feel grounded and how rituals, even simple ones, create a sense of wonder and connection to nature and seasons. Meagan explains the balance between “in” and “out” breaths—a concept in Waldorf education that encourages alternating periods of activity with rest and reflection—to support both children and parents alike.Our conversation goes deep into how these intentional rhythms benefit not just kids but also parents, helping us slow down, find meaning in the daily flow, and build more mindful, peaceful homes. For those curious about how to introduce more ritual and richness into their own parenting journey, Meagan offers practical tips on starting with simple daily practices. Join us for an inspiring conversation about creating a more intentional, balanced family life—even amidst the busyness of modern motherhood.Warning: This podcast is not a highlight reel.

So much of what I learned there, and in my subsequent Waldorf Early Childhood teacher training resonated deeply with our family values. I saw a clear picture of the home I wanted to create for our family.And yet, I found very little practical guidance on how to balance and fairly delegate household chores, how to parent different ages and stages, manage busy schedules and keep up with laundry, meal planning, shopping, cooking and cleaning.Within six years I had four children and came to the realization that if I was going to find any sense of balance, we needed strong family routines, rhythms and rituals. As we came closer and closer to a sense of ease and flow it became clear that our systems nurtured me as well as my family. They were a form of self-care and self-regulation. The more thought-out and conscious I am about how we spend our time, the more intentional I can be about making space for my own.Like all families, we have experienced moments of grief and change, stress and busyness, but it is the rhythms, routines and rituals we have created and implemented that hold and carry us through every season.I support parents to craft and execute effective, personalized and nurturing family systems in their homes.I believe strongly that our unique family values should and can inform our daily routines, rhythms and rituals, and that living authentically aligned with these values models them for our children.You can find links to Meagan’s work here:* Substack* Website* Store - including the Goldentime Journal, and seasonal courses* Podcast Get full access to My Mama Summer at www.mymamasummer.com/subscribe

  • 15 | Scrolling Away Self-Worth: How Instagram Shapes (and Warps) Our Motherhood Stories
    2024/11/06

    In this episode, I’m peeling back the glossy filter of Instagram to look at how it really affects our self-worth as mothers. Have you ever caught yourself comparing your daily reality to someone else’s perfectly curated feed? I know I have.

    Instagram encourages this ‘superego’ version of ourselves—a version that’s flawlessly styled, always patient, endlessly creative. It’s the kind of idealised mothering we see in popular accounts like Ballerina Farm. But the more I look, the more I see how these pristine portrayals distort our perception of what it means to be a “good” mother. It leaves so many of us, myself included, feeling that whatever we’re doing isn’t enough.

    In contrast to this, I’ve been exploring the concept of the ‘good enough mother,’ an idea introduced by psychoanalyst Donald Winnicott, which celebrates the resilience and strength that emerge through imperfect parenting. This real-life mother doesn’t need to be flawless to foster a strong, connected family—she just needs to be present and engaged. So, what happens when this ‘good enough’ reality is placed next to Instagram’s relentless highlight reel? Does it make us doubt ourselves, or could it help us reclaim our stories?

    I’m diving into the ways Instagram can warp our sense of self, especially as women and mothers, and what I’ve discovered about the balance between sharing authentically and simply living our lives, flaws and all. Join me as I unpack my own experience with this struggle and share insights on how we might untangle our self-worth from social media. Together, let’s take a closer look at why the real, unfiltered moments might just be the ones that make us truly enough.
