#51 - Meet My New Baby. She's Called Real Mummy Reads
I've got news. Big news. The kind I've been sitting on for weeks and honestly I'm surprised I didn't crack sooner.
I'm launching a brand new podcast. She's called Real Mummy Reads. She's the sister podcast to Real Mummy. And I keep calling her my new baby because that's basically what she is.
Real Mummy Reads is a book review podcast. But not a fancy one. Not a literary one. Just me on the couch in my pyjamas telling you about the book I just finished like you're my best mate. No spoilers. No snobbery. No pretending I know what I'm talking about. Just honest chats about books I loved, books I didn't, and books I stayed up way too late reading.
In this episode I'm telling you all about it. What it is. Why I made it. And how you can listen.
Real Mummy Reads drops in 2 weeks with 3 episodes on launch day, a 4th episode 48 hours later, then weekly episodes after that.
Go search Real Mummy Reads wherever you're listening and hit follow right now so you don't miss it.

#50 - Fifty Episodes, One Big Thank You
**Episode Description:**
Episode 50.
I can't believe we're here. This one's for you. Every mum who's listened at 3am with a baby on your chest. Every mum who's cried in the car and then pressed play. Every mum who sent me a message saying "me too." You changed my life. I started this podcast so you'd feel less alone. Turns out, you made me feel less alone too. This episode is my big, messy, teary thank you. Being a mum is the hardest and best thing I've ever done. And I'm so glad we're doing it together. 💛

#49 - To Post or Not to Post — That's Every Mum's Question Now
I took a photo at a birthday party. Didn't think twice. Then I got a message from another mum and my stomach dropped. Every family now has different photo rules. Every school event has a reminder about what you can and can't share. Every friend has a different line. And you don't always know where that line is until you've crossed it. I crossed it. In this episode I'm talking about what happened, what I do differently now, and the one question I started asking my seven-year-old that changed everything. No judgement. No right answers. Just the stuff most mums are thinking but not saying out loud. If you've ever hesitated before hitting post — this one's for you.
