And I am very happy you are here.   Ok tell me if this resonates, you’re excited about the summer, your holiday or a beach day or BBQ with friends and then that awful voice starts - “you’re legs are too big to wear those shorts”, you can’t wear a bikini everyone will laugh or your arms are too wobbly for a vest top. Those awful, untrue thoughts that, let’s face it, can stop you really getting all the joy that you deserve this summer. And that’s what I want for you to have as much joy and fun as possible this summer….so I have bought on one of the best body confidence experts I know, Alex Light, she is a ST bestselling author of “You are not a before picture” and she co-hosts an amazing podcast with Emily Clarkson “should I delete that”.  And trust me when I say this is the conversation you need to hear today - because if you’re ready to finally feel more peace with your body then this conversation is going to teach you exactly how to do that.  I hope you love it.

• MOMENT | The surprising reason you’re still criticising yourself and how to change it - for good, with Kasia Urbaniak

  Motherkind Moment is your place for calm and connection and a shift in perspective before the week ahead.  In this moment, Kasia explores how to break free from “good girl” conditioning and the habit of beating yourself up. It invites us to see self-criticism as a learned way of staying safe—not a flaw—and encourages boldness, self-compassion, and asking for what you truly need, especially as a mother navigating a world not built for you.

• Work Series: Listener episode: What we wish someone had told us about work + motherhood

  Welcome to this very special final episode of the Motherkind Work Series. This one is close to my heart because it features you, the Motherkind community. I’m joined by three brilliant Motherkind listeners: Amy, who’s on a career pause, Vanessa, working full-time in a corporate role, and Jess, just back from maternity leave, working four days a week as an NHS psychologist. Each of them shares honestly and openly about what’s working for them, what’s hard, what they wish they’d known earlier, and how they define success now, in this season of motherhood. It’s like peeking behind the curtain. I know you’re going to feel seen, understood, and less alone listening to this one. If you love it, please share it with another mum who might need to hear these voices. And let me know — would you like more episodes like this from the Motherkind community? I’d love to hear what you think.
