There’s Magic in the Mess — Of Baby-Led Weaning and Motherhood
Let’s be real: sometimes baby-led weaning feels more like baby-led chaos.

But here’s the truth most Instagram reels won’t show you — the mess is the magic. In this heartfelt pep talk, I’m sharing a gentle reframe for the sticky, squishy, sometimes soul-stretching reality of starting solids… and how it’s still working even when it doesn’t look picture-perfect.

Inside this episode:

  • 4 powerful truths to hold onto when feeding feels frustrating
  • Why the mess is a sign of learning (not failure)
  • What social media isn’t showing you — and how that’s impacting your confidence
  • A few real-life tips for making cleanup easier (including my favorite splash mat!)
  • A reminder that you’re not behind. You’re in it — and that counts
