You love your partner.But the holidays hit, and suddenly you're the one tracking gifts, outfits, nap schedules, travel plans, and everyone's feelings… while your partner is getting praised for bringing one pie.In this episode, Chelsea and Mike break down the mental load of the holidays for new parents—especially moms who are carrying the invisible work of making everything “magical” while feeling unseen, overextended, and resentful.

If you've ever thought, 'I'm just tired,' but deep down you think it's more than that — this conversation is for you. Perinatal Mental Health Week isn't about hashtags or general awareness. It's about honesty.Jane speaks with Julie Borninkhof, CEO of PANDA (Perinatal Anxiety & Depression Australia), about the hidden crisis facing new parents. One in three new parents who complete PANDA's mental-health checklist report thoughts of running away or self-harm. Yet most never say, 'I'm not coping.' Together they unpack why we downplay our pain, why neurodivergent mums face even higher risk, and what real support looks like — beyond 'self-care' slogans.What You'll HearThe confronting reality of PANDA's national data — and why so many parents suffer in silenceHow unrealistic expectations and glossy 'good mum' culture stop women from seeking helpWhy perinatal depression looks different for neurodivergent mums — and how to recognise the signsPractical ways to check on a friend (or yourself) when you sense something's not rightThe truth about the word failure — and how PANDA reframes it into survival and strengthHow better funding — and normalising help-seeking — could change the future for Australian familiesThis Episode Is For You If …You're a new parent who feels constantly 'on edge' or ashamed for not enjoying motherhood.You're supporting a friend who's not herself and don't know how to help.You're neurodivergent and struggling to separate exhaustion from depression.You've ever wondered why asking for help feels so hard.⚠️ Trigger WarningThis episode discusses perinatal mental health distress and self-harm.Please take care while listening.Key TakeawayYou're not broken — you're overwhelmed. Being a good parent doesn't mean being okay all the time. It means recognising when you're not okay and reaching out before the darkness deepens. Help-seeking isn't weakness; it's leadership.Resources MentionedPANDA Helpline: 1300 726 306 | www.panda.org.au | 9 am – 7:30 pm AEST Mon–Fri | 10 am – 4 pm SatMental-Health Checklist: Check how you're really going → panda.org.au/checklistLifeline (24/7): 13 11 14Beyond Blue: 1300 22 4636Gidget Foundation Australia: www.gidgetfoundation.org.auFor When — Free parent mental-health support: forwhenhelpline.org.auRelated ADHD Mums Episodes

Does your organisation provide fair and equal leave and pay for all new parents? The Government has launched a full 18-month review of family-related leave and the Employment Rights Bill is set to introduce some changes in this area. In the meantime higher expectations among the workforce appear to be prompting organisations to take matters into their own hands and to develop ambitious new policies. In this episode of the podcast Zeba Sayed, senior legal editor at Brightmine, talks to Becs Peedell, employment lawyer at Lewis Silkin, about her organisation's equal new parent policy - and how it is seeking to encourage other firms to follow suit. Read the transcript Resources Equalised new parent leave policy How Lewis Silkin developed and rolled out its equalised new parent leave policy Statutory neonatal care leave: What HR needs to know On your radar - Employment Rights Bill updates and HR mythbusting Key Takeaways The podcast discusses UK parental leave, the newly launched Government review and law firm Lewis Silkin's equalised new parent leave policy. UK statutory leave offers 52 weeks for mothers, 1-2 weeks for fathers, and shared parental leave, but uptake is low and policies are seen as outdated. Lewis Silkin's policy gives all new parents up to 52 weeks' leave, with 26 weeks at full pay for those with a year's service. Leave can be taken flexibly. The policy has seen high uptake, including among fathers, and has cost more than expected, but is viewed as a success for workplace equality. The firm encourages other organisations to consider similar policies, emphasising stakeholder buy-in and operational planning.

Riley Gaines has become one of the most recognizable voices in the fight to protect women's sports, but in this conversation, we got to see another side of her as a wife, a new mom, and a woman learning to balance purpose with peace. Riley and her husband Louis sat down with me to talk about faith, marriage, and how they've stayed grounded through all the chaos of public life. We talked about their journey as newlyweds, how becoming parents has changed their perspective, and what it really feels like to be thrust into the national spotlight. Riley opened up about the pressure of being a public figure, the criticism she faces, and how she finds strength in her faith and in her relationship with Louis. Together, they shared how they handle disagreements, protect their marriage, and stay focused on what matters most: family, purpose, and truth. It's a rare and refreshing look at the woman behind the headlines, and the man who's been by her side through it all.

In this episode, I chat with Lily, a first-time mom who was preparing for life with one baby—until the ultrasound revealed twins. Eight and a half months later, she's still learning to bend with the chaos, find her center in the exhaustion, and embrace the version of motherhood she never expected.Lily opens up about the emotional whiplash of going from imagining life with one newborn to suddenly preparing for two. She shares the honest truth behind the picture-perfect twin mom moments we see online—the sleepless nights, the identity shift, the overwhelm no one prepares you for, and the quiet fear of “Am I really cut out for this?”We talk about postpartum emotions that don't get enough airtime, why patience became her survival skill, and how her mom's simple advice—“bend, don't break”—became her anchor in the hardest moments. We also explore what it really takes to stay present through the noise: releasing expectations, accepting help, and finding joy in the tiny, messy moments of connection.This episode is for any parent who's ever felt stretched thin, outnumbered, or unsure—but kept showing up anyway.EPISODE THEMES

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're sharing the relationship habits that have actually helped us (and YOU GUYS) stay connected as new parents — from daily 15-minute check-ins to remembering not to “talk through” your baby. We also talk about what it really means to support your partner through postpartum depression, and how we need to try going to bed at the same time (apparently this is a thing a lot of you guys do??). Before that, we dive into kindergarten cutoff dates (is it better to be old or young for your grade??), the great Diet Coke vs. Diet Pepsi debate, and our first ever MOVIE NIGHT REVIEW of Happy Gilmore 2. Plus, the new “fridge cigarettes” meme and a little closet clean-out convo (Harrison might need to watch the Marie Kondo show??). In Things We DMed Each Other, we're taking on the hotel industry (check-in at 4pm, check-out at 11am? Really??) and decoding Gen Z's newest phone greeting trend. WE LOVE YOU GUYS!

Hillary helps us learn how newborns experience their brand-new world —and how we as educators and doulas can help families understand them in ways they may have never been taught. Rather than seeing babies as a blob to be shaped, we can recognize them as fully formed people with unique needs. Transitioning from an internal dark, warm, water-filled home to the bright, ever-changing world can be quite an undertaking— but with our love and guidance, we can help them grow to their full potential, starting from the very first breath. Learning more about how we can teach this in a wonderfully sensitive way can change families' lives. About Hillary Hillary Menke, ICCE, is a childbirth and newborn care instructor with The Women's Clinic of Northern Colorado whose passion lies in the respectful, intentional care of very young children. She earned her BS in Early Childhood Education from the University of Northern Colorado and began her career working with infants through kindergarteners in the classroom. To deepen her understanding of whole-child development, she pursued Waldorf Teacher Training at Sound Circle Center, focusing on supporting children's growth beyond academics—nurturing what it means to be deeply, joyfully human. It was with the birth of her own little one and coming to grips with the awe-filled, wild ride of motherhood that this passion extended to the care of new parents in their journeys through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. She earned her childbirth educator certification through ICEA and now helps families navigate this transformative time with evidence-based education and compassionate guidance. Her goal is to build confidence in parents as they care for their babies in ways that reflect their values, wisdom, and dreams. What You'll Learn: What current neuroscience reveals about how babies actually perceive the world Why educators need to role model respectful interaction with their “babies” in the classroom What the differences are between infant and adult brain waves How we can demonstrate ways for parents to empathize with their babies Why a parent's calm demeanor can change the interaction with baby How to teach ways to decode infant cues Why free movement is part of respectful infant care Hillary's Favorite Resources: Baby Bare by Stephanie Johnson The Nurture Revolution by Greer Kirshenbaum Unruffled with Janet Lansbury (Podcast) Anything from Magda Gerber or Dr. Emi Pikler Related Products from InJoy:  Understanding Your Newborn Curriculum Understanding Birth Curriculum Understanding Breastfeeding Curriculum Educator Media Library Related Blogs and Podcasts from InJoy:   Podcast: Season 9 Episode 2: Gentle Sleep Support with Sierra Brooks Contact Hillary at hillary.menke@gmail.com.

Send us a textwith Erica DiamondThose early days of parenthood can feel like survival mode—your routines are gone, your identity feels blurry, and the overwhelm is constant. Between sleepless nights, mental overload, and trying to “do it all,” it's easy to lose yourself.In this episode, Dr. Cindy Hovington is joined by Erica Diamond—certified life & career coach and creator of the List Your Goals Journal—to explore how small, but meaningful shifts in your day-to-day life can help you feel less reactive, more grounded, more present, and more connected to yourself and your child as a parent.They talk about the mindset traps many new parents fall into, why setting boundaries matters more than ever, and how simple, everyday tools can help you create a more balanced and connected environment—for you and your child. This isn't about a total life overhaul—it's about small, daily, actionable steps that lead to significant shifts overtime.
