    S1 Ep7: **BONUS** Lucy Critchley - Podcast Producer and Virtual Assistant
    2021/06/22
    Here's a sneaky bonus episode from season one of the Power of the Parent podcast for you!

    This week I speak to Lucy Critchley VA. Lucy is my podcast producer and all round good egg. In this episode we talk about maternity allowance, starting a business with a 5 month old and of course, self care.

    I asked Lucy if she'd come on because I was reflecting about the power of making things happen - nobody is going to be a bigger cheerleader for you than YOU - I wanted to start a podcast for ages but I wasn't championing myself.

    Along came Lucy who absolutely had my back and showed me how to believe in the message I wanted to share with the world. If you'd like to find out more about Lucy, check out her website here.

    If you'd like to get in touch, please email me on hello@power-of-the-parent.com or you can find me on Instagram @power.of.the.parent. You can also visit my website www.power-of-the-parent.com.
