Why I do free intro calls 👇

A free 15 minute chat. No pressure, no expectations, no catch.

Just a chance to get to know each other and see if we’re the right fit.

Here’s what we cover:

🤍 Check we align on values, no sleep training, no cry it out, no quick fixes

🤍 Talk through what your family is currently struggling with

🤍 I recommend the support that suits you best

That might be:

🌙 One to one, my deepest support, where we look through everything from food and sleep diaries to get to the root of things, a deep analysis in order to work out why sleep is feeling tricky

🌿 Walk and talk, gentler, lighter support out in the fresh air

No one size fits all. Just a warm, zero judgment zone where your rest can begin.

Parenthood didn’t pause your growth. 
It just changed what you’re measuring. Yes, some things slowed down-The gym, the career momentum, your personal goals.

But what about the resentment you learned to name? The empathy that crept in quietly? The way you show up kinder, steadier, more yourself? That’s growth too. 

And honestly, it might be the most important kind. 
Writedown something you’re proud of since becoming a default parent that has nothing to do with your child. 

Because when we name these things out loud, it reminds other parents what they might have grown into without even realising.

A side note: I’m saying this on a day where I feel positive about my growth and myself, but that doesn’t mean some days I don’t still grieve the fact that I don’t have the same accessibility to my career or my personal growth due to our own family setup and the choices that I’ve made, but that’s a conversation for another day.

Bonus note: I say motherhood in this post because that’s my lived experience as the default parent, and I’m speaking to that. But this absolutely applies to any default parent in any family setup.

Every time I clean it’s fingers in ears for personal gain vs whatever the algorithm has decided is destroying me this week.

Today I’m tired. Im so quick to push through these feelings to find gratitude however I’m slowly learning to validate my feelings and move on. Resisting our negative feelings keeps them trapped in there!

if you’re wondering why my dungarees are like that, this photo was taken minutes after I tried to go to the toilet and came out to find my son had drawn all over our white door. They say it takes a village- well I see that! Even writing this post I cringe a bit about moaning about the happiest point in my life, but without the lows we truly can’t appreciate the highs.

After my little meltdown about the door, my son grabs my face and says “big kiss” now he isn’t responsible for my feelings but my goodness he helped in that moment!!

If you’re tired this week too, you’re not failing. You’re carrying a lot. Tell me one thing you’re tired of right now. Because when I thought of this being a post I actually wrote down THIRTY bloody things that are making me tired this week!!! So help validate a girl and write yourself below 👇

I know this isn’t sleep related, but I’ve made my peace with it — because Mum Is The Word is shifting into more of a motherhood space than just a sleep space, and I wanted to start a conversation around motherhood and judgement.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​..

I found myself walking home angry and crying about how this man had made me feel — on a walk I normally really cherish.

But there I was, crying, thinking about what I was wearing and what judgement he’d managed to derive from the first minute of meeting me. And that made me even angrier — the fact that I’d considered what I looked like, whether I was deserving of this man’s anger and shame.

But I did have to remind myself: in all of this, I don’t feel sorry for myself. I actually feel sorry for him. Because he is spending his life living in that much anger, and I’m spending mine, most of the time, in peace and offering kindness.

And if it wasn’t for women like and this might have just been another opportunity for a man to feel more powerful, more in control. Instead, I left feeling a little bit angry, yes — but in control.​​​​​​​​​​

When I saw this on I immediately thought of my own. I think we all have that one thing that sends us into an absolute panic.

This mum said it better than I could.

Because the truth is, most mums don’t need another method. They’ve already tried them. They’ve read the threads, saved the reels, downloaded the PDFs — and they’re more confused than when they started.

That’s what 1:1 support with me looks like. No scripts. No one-size-fits-anyone plans. Just space to look under the hood of your baby’s sleep, and someone who trusts you to know them.

If this is the chapter you’re in — the intro call is where we start. Link in bio to book.

Boundary testing phase in full swing. Every ‘no’ is apparently an invitation. Every ‘hot’ or ‘sharp’ becomes a fascinating challenge. Cue the bruises, the falls, the absolutely hilarious defiance—and me, flip flopping between laughing and holding the line.

The thing is, when he pushes back like this, he’s actually asking to feel safe. And even when it’s impossibly funny, that boundary is the kindest thing I can offer him right now.

Welcome to toddlerhood!

Comment your toddlerism this week—let’s lighten the load together! Get out all the giggles and cries in one swoop!
