The Black Mums Upfront Podcast is a weekly podcast fronted by Carina White, Natalie Duvall and Nana-Adwoa Mbeutcha. They rarely agree on anything but always keep it real… sometimes too real. Getting upfront about their experience of modern-day motherhood - with top tips, inspirational guests, insightful topics, eye-opening honesty, and lots of laughter. Welcome to the Sisterhood.
WhatsApp Groups, Botox & Teenage Drama — Just Another Week in Motherhood
From the chaos of group chats to the quiet moments of self-doubt that every mother knows, this episode of Black Mums Up Front is a full, unfiltered celebration of Black motherhood in all its complexity.
Carina, Natalie, and Nana-Adwoa get real about marking Mother's Day on their own terms — prioritising self-care, community, and joy. They bust myths around Botox and ageing gracefully, swap hilarious stories about sibling rivalries and protective brothers, and navigate the very real challenges of teenage independence, bedtimes, and knowing when to let go.
The conversation goes deeper too — co-parenting boundaries, communication with exes, keeping the spark alive in long-term relationships, and the importance of affirming yourself as a good mother, even when the doubt creeps in.
Funny, heartfelt, and refreshingly honest — this one's for every Black mum who's ever done it all and still shown up.

We Took a Break (Life Didn’t)
After nearly two years (yes… two whole years 🙃), we’re finally back behind the mics.
In this episode, the Black Mums Upfront ladies reunite for a proper catch-up...the kind you have when life has really lifed.
We talk about where we’ve been, what we’ve been navigating, and how much has changed. From personal growth and shifting identities, to grief, loss, and the quiet strength motherhood demands when nobody’s clapping for you.
It’s honest. It’s warm. It’s a little chaotic (because when are we ever not?). There are laughs, there are reflective moments, and there’s that familiar energy of friends who’ve seen each other through it all.
If you’ve been stretched, strengthened, humbled, healed (and still expected to show up), this one will feel like home. 🤎
