Where can you listen?

Welcome to The Pooch Podcast, real, unfiltered mum life.

This is the podcast for mums who feel like they’ve lost themselves in motherhood and are trying to find their way back. Hosted by an Aussie mum of two, this is your Friday night dinner with friends space where we talk about the things no one says out loud.

We get into the mental load, the invisible labour, the identity crisis, the pressure to be everything to everyone, and why “just do more self care” isn’t cutting it. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, behind, or like everyone else has it together except you, you’re in the right place.

This podcast is about dropping the ball on purpose so you can finally pick yourself back up.


Expect honest conversations about

mum life and the reality behind the highlight reel

losing your identity after kids and becoming a new version of you

self care that actually works in real life

the pressure of modern motherhood and the patriarchy

building your village and finding your people

mental load, burnout and invisible labour

raising kids in today’s world including raising boys in the manosphere

balancing ambition, motherhood and personal growth


Whether you’re a new mum, deep in the chaos, or trying to reconnect with yourself again, this podcast will make you feel seen, understood and less alone.


Because no one has their shit together and you don’t have to either.


New episodes weekly.
