Podcasts about love to dream

Thanks for listening. I got real deep on what's been going on. Apologies that I haven't been uploading. I've been trying to get and keep myself together. The episode explain the rest. Again, thanks for listening!! Also I apologize for being too close to the mic, I'll know better next time.

I have no fear, I'll be fine on that day when love is all I am, and my body falls away.

My Birth Story with Midwife Pip Honestly, I never intended on sharing my birth story. It is such a personal, precious journey but I have experienced first-hand the power of reading and reflecting on birth stories during my own pregnancy. There are so many ‘horror' style stories to be read, a bit like restaurant reviews- everyone leaves a bad review, but we often forget to celebrate the good ones. As a midwife, working predominantly in a high risk setting for the past few years I have witnessed many types of birth, many obstetric emergencies and many of what could be featured in the ‘scary birth story' column. So, therefore I have chosen to share mine with you, my arm has been twisted and fitting with my ethos of supporting women to be excited for birth, not scared I feel it is important I share this. 17th September 2021- the most amazing and empowering day of my life… This episode is sponsored by Aptaclub, bringing you reliable information, tips and checklists about all things pregnancy, birth and baby from Aptaclub experts.

Becoming and being a parent is tough, perhaps the most challenging thing we will ever do as a woman. Don't get me wrong I love being a mum but the psychological shift is huge, your life and priorities are literally turned upside down overnight. Our emotional wellbeing is more fragile and important than ever but is often right down the priority list. This week Sophie Burch aka The Mamma Coach @themamacoach is here to share with us why and how we should and must change this. Sophie is on a mission to put mental and emotional wellbeing more on the map in pregnancy, birth and parenting. She has 16 years as a mother to 4 boys (including twins), as a perinatal therapist and coach, and a birth trauma and PND survivor. Her experience has shaped who she is and awakened her to a life of compassion and deep empathy for everyone from pre-conception through parenting to menopause. Her approach is simple: to allow people to feel held and heard, safe and worthy of love and self acceptance.. Sophie believes that our strength comes from self compassion, kindness and knowledge, which is her ethos. Her focus for 2022 is “connection” and she intends to connect with and hold space for as many people as possible. 2020 saw her launch her Book, Beyond Birth: A Mindful Guide for Early Parenting, which is an integration of all she knows will help people have a more balanced, positive experience as they transition from pregnancy to parenting. The guide is available as a published book on Amazon, an ebook & audiobook so it really is a must read that is accessible to all and is linked below: https://tinyurl.com/2p862ehw A big thank you to the sponsor of this episode- Cheeky Rascals.

Dr. Ivana Poku bravely shares some of her experience with postnatal depression and pregnancy following previous postnatal depression. In the UK it is estimated that 1 in 4 women experience postnatal depression and it is a subject we really need to discuss more. So, a heartfelt thank you to Ivana, a mum of 3 boys (including twins), postnatal depression survivor, blogger, motivational speaker, and author of Motherhood - The Unspoken for helping raise so much awareness. Originally from Slovakia, Ivana moved to England at the age of 29. After giving birth to her twin boys, she suffered major postnatal depression. But sadly, she soon understood she was not the only one struggling. Even if it doesn't go as far as depression, becoming a mother is nothing like we had expected and without relevant information and support, this can easily lead to feelings of failure and inadequacy. After she pulled through postnatal depression, Ivana set up Mumsjourney and has been on the mission to create a world where new mums don't suffer in silence ever since.

Reflux must be up there with one of the most challenging but common conditions new parents and babies face. Seeing your little one uncomfortable and upset is heart breaking so I am excited to bring you this episode packed with expert information and guidance to cut through the confusion and help you navigate this tough time. Áine Homer, the founder of The Baby Reflux Lady, is joining me today to answer your questions around reflux. Following her own experience in mothering two babies with infant reflux, Áine was inspired to develop a way to support other parents and equip them with the knowledge needed to help their baby. After two babies with reflux, CMPA and multiple other food intolerances and allergies between them, and three years of postnatal depression to boot, Áine knew she had to do something to provide the support that just wasn't there when she needed it, and thus the Baby Reflux Lady was born! Despite what the doctors say, reflux is not normal, and parents don't have to wait for babies to grow out of it. To find out more about Áine's incredible work all her details are linked in the episode description: Website: www.thebabyrefluxlady.co.uk Instagram @babyrefluxlady Facebook www.facebook.com/thebabyrefluxlady A big thank you to the sponsor of this episode- Cheeky Rascals.

Being a parent is a responsibility like no other, it is to have your heart walking around outside your body and your natural parental instincts are to protect your little one from any harm. So, have you considered ensuring you have the essential choking and first aid skills to keep your little one safe. Choking is one of those things we all hope we never have to deal with, but the reality is it does happen to some babies and children and therefore equipping yourself with the skills to deal with it could quite literally save your child's life. Todays guest is Sammy Davies, who has been empowering parents by teaching them life- saving skills for the past five years. Before having children herself, she worked in a bustling, high acuity hospital in Melbourne, Australia as a Registered Nurse. After completing her Masters in Nursing she realised she had a second passion- teaching. Becoming a Nurse Educator allowed her to share her skills, and teach student nurses, nurses and doctors at the frontline. Soon after becoming a parent herself (and making the move to the UK), she realised that her loved ones were not equipped with the skills that they needed to care for her children in case of a medical emergency. Sharing these life- saving skills with the people around her became her focus, and she went on to start her own businesses teaching parents friendly first aid. Over the years she has helped hundreds of parents and grandparents to know what to do if an accident did occur to their little ones. Sammy offers Baby & Child First Aid sessions, and has developed an online course devoted to all things choking, follow Sammy on Instagram @happyheartsfirstaid and check out her life-saving courses : www.happyheartsfirstaid.com A big thank you to the sponsor of this episode- Cheeky Rascals.

Infant feeding is one of the first things on a new parents mind - it is such a fundamental part of the fourth trimester. Whether you choose to breastfeed, combination feed or formula feed you and your baby are learning a whole new skill that can take a little time and patience to get to grips with. Knowing what to expect, how to work out if your feeding journey is going well and common conditions to keep an eye out for such as jaundice can make you feel more confident and prepared as you navigate the early weeks with your little one. On this weeks episode I am joined by Dr Shruti Nathwani, Dr Shruti is a NHS Paediatrician and host of the platform @thechildrensmedic medic. Knowing there is a gap in knowledge and support parents receive upon arrival of their newborn, she set out to try and inform parents with evidence-based information and tips. "It was when I had my own son that I realised there were so many questions as a new parent and not enough support to go around." She covers topics such as reflux, newborn stool, eczema, developmental milestones and many more on both her Instagram page and website www.thechildrensmedic.com A big thank you to the sponsor of this episode- Cheeky Rascals.

I think the most commonly searched words for new parents are… how can I get my baby to sleep. The sleep disturbances and deprivation of being a new parent are tough as I know all too well since becoming a mum myself n 2021. If babies came with a sleep manual that would be great, but they just don't, so we have got to figure out how to support these beautiful little joyous sleep thieves ourselves. I think preparing for the sleep changes and understanding how to support your little one in the outside world should be considered in pregnancy, so we have realistic expectations when the time comes and know what to do. On this week's episode I am joined by Lisa Lamb, known better on social media as the_night_ninja. Lisa is a mum of 3 and prides her sleep coaching approach as being non-judgemental and free from any bullshit. We are all for keeping it real on this podcast, so I am excited to pick Lisa's expert brains on all things helping your baby to sleep. A big thank you to the sponsor of this episode- Cheeky Rascals.

We are going there! We are talking about sex during pregnancy and after you have had a baby. One of those subjects you may not want to talk with your mum or friends about but fear not because here on my podcast we love diving into taboo subjects and making sure no stone is left unturned. Sex is a topic that often makes us blush or shy away from discussion, but I am not sure anything could make this week's guest blush, as a sex educator April Davis spends her days writing about vaginas. On Instagram as @thevaginablog April openly discusses all the things you want to ask but are too shy to. April describes herself as the reason you slightly tilt your phone away from others when you're scrolling and that is the exact reason, she is the perfect guest to join us today. I am very grateful that April is taking time out from blogging at thevaginblog.com and swapping seats from hosting her own podcast to join me here today to share why talking about sex and vaginas need not make you blush.

Motherhood is the most beautiful, chaotic whirlwind. Some days you feel on top of the world and like you are smashing it and other days feel like they are a month long and full of relentless hurdles. We wouldn't change it for the world, but that doesn't mean that it is easy, so how can we mother in a more mindful way to make those rollercoaster days a little easier on us and the whole family? This week I am so excited to chat to Izzy Judd, who as a mum of 3 is very aware of the challenges that come alongside motherhood.

Nutrition in pregnancy is a powerful force, not only does the food you eat need to nourish your body but also your growing baby. However, alongside nutrition in pregnancy comes a whole heap of myths and misconceptions. At a time where it is so important to have the facts and to be empowered to nourish your body and baby it is vital we unpick fact from fiction and I cannot think of a better guest to help us do just that today. I am joined by the wonderful Rhiannon Lambert. Rhiannon is one of the UK's leading nutritionists, a best-selling author and chart-topping podcast host. In 2016 she founded Rhitrition, a renowned Harley Street clinic, which specialises in weight management, sports nutrition, eating disorders, and pre- and post-natal nutrition. As an evidence-based practitioner, Rhiannon is committed to the benefits of a scientific approach to nutrition. In 2017, Rhiannon published her first book, the best-selling Re-Nourish: A Simple Way To Eat Well, part handbook, part cookbook, in which she shares her food philosophy to lay the foundations for a happy, healthy relationship with eating. She followed this up with Top Of Your Game: Eating For Mind & Body (2019), co-written with world snooker champion, Ronnie O'Sullivan. And her third book, The Science of Nutrition, was recently published in 2021 and is a Sunday times bestseller. Rhiannon also hosts the top-rated ‘Food for Thought' which gives listeners practical, evidence-based advice on how to achieve a healthier lifestyle. So, I think it is safe to say we are in the very best hands today with Rhiannon!
