When Kath Carlin finally decided to stop trying for a second baby, part of her was kind of relieved. The journey had been arduous, and privately, she felt like she was only meant to be a mum of one. She wasn't quite sure she was allowed to say it out loud, but she wasn't sure she even wanted a second baby. And then, she fell pregnant naturally. But her journey wouldn't end there. There'd be a potential diagnosis on the cards, but ultimately, she would lose that baby, too. After that, she was done with trying and now, a year and a half later, she couldn't be happier to be the mum of one child. It's surprising to me that in 2025, this is still a pretty unique story, and here, we explore why. Where does that pressure to have multiple kids come from? How does she feel all about it now?Here, we explore this and so much more, including her incredibly successful career as a makeup artist and the hilarious birth story that wasn't the red carpet plan she had in mind.—Thanks for listening!

I'm joined by the incredible Sarah Davidson, a multi-passionate entrepreneur, podcast host, speaker, author, and mother, whose journey is a masterclass in embracing life's unexpected twists with courage, humour, and heart.Sarah began her career as a corporate lawyer, but a pivotal moment led her to walk away from the courtroom and into a completely new chapter, co-founding the global wellness brand Matcha Maiden. What followed was not only the creation of a thriving business but also a deeply personal transformation, including a health crash from adrenal fatigue that forced her to slow down, listen to her body, and re-evaluate what success really meant.We also speak about her experiences living with severe anxiety, and how she's learned to navigate it with tools that prioritise emotional and physical rest, without guilt. Sarah opens up about her powerful mindset shifts, from overcoming imposter syndrome to letting go of the pressure to always be productive, and instead embracing what she calls “seizing the yay”, the joyful moments, the playful rituals, and the small wins that make life feel meaningful.Her reflections are honest, relatable, and full of permission to slow down, play more, and redefine what fulfilment looks like on your own terms.

After experiencing the stillbirth of her firstborn, baking became a sort of therapy for Monique Milenkovic. She'd left her corporate job to go on parental leave, her calendar was clear, and with no baby in her arms, her life took an unexpected life altering turn. That direction would lead her to The Cupcake Queens – her thriving business with eight stores and a delivery service across Melbourne. But if growing her business wasn't stretching her enough, after the loss of her son Nicholas, she'd go on to have a further five children. And you might be wondering how – I know we sure were – but you'll learn quickly, as we did, that Monique takes it all in her stride. She doesn't sugar coat it, she'll tell you it's hard to navigate motherhood and business, but she's also a glass half full type of woman. And so, this conversation was incredibly uplifting, and with so much devastating news permeating the news cycle, I think we could all use something uplifting right now. So let's hear from Monique. —Thanks for listening!

Anne is visited by the man Mrs Smith revealed as the source of her husband's demise and determines that she can no longer entertain his company. Her sister, Mary and her husband Charles arrive for a surprise visit and the impending marriage of friends, a true love match, is admired, particularly the support of the parents in promoting happiness over personal ambition. The group argue over where to go in the evening and despite Anne vocalising her wish to attend a play, it is decided that they will all attend the evening party as there are more opportunities for social climbing. However, a last minute invitation provides Anne with the opportunity to follow her heart. Will it lead her to happiness or renewed despair?

In this raw and radiant conversation, Hayley is joined by bestselling author, speaker, and self-connection guide Hollie Azzopardi, as she opens up about the deeply personal journey behind her latest book. From navigating chronic illness and the exhaustion of people-pleasing, to healing childhood emotional wounds and finding her voice again after becoming a mother. Hollie speaks with heart, honesty, and hope.We explore what it means to truly rediscover yourself after losing your sense of identity, and how nervous system regulation, ritual, boundaries, and embodiment can become lifelines in the healing process. Hollie shares what “identity resurrection” looked like for her, how she now defines success, and the power of being “too much” in a world that often asks women to shrink.This episode is an empowering permission slip to come home to yourself, in all your fullness.Find Hollie : Website

In this deeply insightful episode, I sit down with surgeon, author, and broadcaster Gabriel Weston, whose unconventional path from English literature to Surgery gives her a unique lens on the human body, illness, and healing.Gabriel shares how studying the humanities before entering medicine shaped her connection to patients and her writing voice. Together, they explore the emotional complexity of being both doctor and patient, particularly when Gabriel faced a serious heart condition and later navigated her son's life-threatening illness. She reflects on compassion, burnout, and the shift that comes when you're no longer the one holding the scalpel.Delving into her powerful book 'Alive: The Story of the Anatomical Body', Gabriel speaks candidly about reframing anatomy as something intimate and deeply human. She challenges outdated narratives about women's bodies, discusses what medical education is still missing, and reveals the body systems that fascinate her most.This conversation will leave you feeling seen, inspired, and more connected to the miraculous complexity of your own body!

How long do you have? In all seriousness, we love dads, and millennial dads are absolutely raising the bar on what it looks like to be a father. This chat is about society, and why dads seem to get praised for their parenting while mums are just… plain old parenting (and complaining about it on their hot mum walks, IYKYK). Our listeners had a lot to say on this one when we opened the polls up – 96% of you thought that dads do get more praise for parenting. Is it because of deeply entrenched traditional gender roles? Is it a general lack of care for mothers and motherhood? Is it mums being cast as the ‘default' parent who are *just” doing what's expected of them? Is it stereotyped language around dad's being ‘hands on' or ‘babysitting' their own kids? Listen and hear from us, as well as you, our listeners, as we break this one down together. Studies/articles mentioned in this chat:Grattan Institute Research on parenting dynamics in early years.

Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey 2022 on housework division.Australian Survey of Social Attitudes 2022 on Traditional Gender Norms.

Wow, this episode is so powerful and so precious. Hayley joins us on the podcast to share her story with Harry, her beautiful son who is now 4 years old and absolutely thriving.Hayley and her partner, Jordan, welcomed their boy into the world at just 24 weeks old, weighing a tiny 700 grams. Harry spent the first 16 weeks of his life in the NICU after being born so prematurely, miraculously coming home on his due date. Hayley talks us through her entire story, from her joy at falling pregnant, to being hospitalised for premature labour and the anxiety-filled weeks that followed while medical staff tried to stop her labour progressing. She shares her birth with Harry, and the complications that arose for them both.Hayley talks vulnerably on the day-to-day NICU experience with a micro-preemie - the milestones of Harry opening his eyes for the first time, buying his first clothes and blankets, and also the challenges of waiting for his lungs to mature, navigating pumping and feeding, and sitting by his cot without being able to cuddle him. Finally, Hayley and Jordan were able to bring Harry home and Hayley shares what these first few weeks and months looked like as they adapted to life outside of the hospital, and what has changed over the years as Harry continues to thrive. This is such a beautiful episode, about a beautiful family. Hayley speaks so openly of an experience that so few walk, and we are so grateful for her sharing her's and Harry's story. Links Hayley mentioned in the episode:Life's Little Treasures FoundationMiracle Babies FoundationJoin our Growing community on instagram ⁠⁠⁠@growingupraisinguspodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to see photos of our weekly guests, behind the scenes moments, and keep up to date with episode releases.This podcast was recorded on the unceded lands of the Taungurung, Wurundjeri and Boon Wurrung/Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation.

Ideally, we'd be raising our children in community – with others from different generations, backgrounds and skill-sets. Somebody to entertain the older kids, somebody to focus on feeding, to plan the day, to tend to the mothers in early postpartum, to hold sleeping babies, to help with laundry. In reality, most of us are doing all of this tending by ourselves, and mostly in isolation. In this episode, Alice (@themodern.doula) joins the podcast to chat about all things modern day village. Alice is a doula and mother to two, so perfectly positioned to share how we can create (and contribute to) meaningful support systems in motherhood when they may not be available or close by. This episode is part of our How Do I series, a segment of the pod where we unpack questions that have been on our minds.
