7am. Freezing beach. 700 strangers. And we're about to get completely naked and run into the North Sea.

This episode isn't just about a skinny dip. It's about flexing the muscle of getting comfortable with discomfort.

Doing new things, scary things—not despite being mothers, but alongside it.

Here's the truth: so many women are so conscious of their post-baby bodies that they hold themselves back from living. We wait to feel ready. We wait for our bodies to look different. We wait for confidence to arrive.

But someday isn't guaranteed. So we said yes to something terrifying—afraid, unsure—and did it anyway.

And how we felt after? Phenomenal.

We talk about:→ Why "ready" is a decision, not a feeling→ Standing naked with 700 people and realizing your post-baby body is capable, not broken→ How obsessing over what people think of our bodies stops us from making life what we want it to be→ How discomfort compounds—the same muscle that got us into the water is the one that built this podcast

This is Mambition in action: saying yes while terrified, because the feeling after is worth it.

What's your skinny dip? What are you waiting to feel ready for?

A fire engine whizzed past me yesterday, and I instinctively said "WOW!" and waved. Then I realised—I wasn't even with my kids.

My 2 and 4-year-old have completely recalibrated what joy looks like for me. Their threshold for delight is impossibly low: a puddle can make their entire morning.

Meanwhile, I had trained myself that joy needed to be earned through massive achievements—big promotions, major milestones, spectacular moments. I was always waiting for the big wow, completely missing all the small ones happening around me every single day.

In this episode, I explore what happens when we let our children teach us how to notice wonder again. Joy isn't an interruption to the chaos—it's woven into the ordinary moments.

If you've been waiting for something spectacular to feel joy, this episode is your permission to find it in the small moments instead.

"If I'm leaving my child, it has to be worth it."

That one question led Jools Tyrer to completely reinvent her career.

Flight attendant → teacher → defense sector → transformational coach and podcaster (Mama's Flightpath).

She took redundancy twice. Once by choice to travel the world. Once unexpectedly—losing her identity and security overnight. Both times, she turned the space into opportunity.

In this conversation:→ How motherhood cracks us open and reveals what we're actually tolerating→ Self-care as the path back to yourself after losing yourself in early motherhood→ The motherhood penalty is real—so how do we navigate what works for us NOW?→ Living life alongside your children instead of waiting for "someday"

Jools isn't here to tell you to "have it all."

She's here to show you how to build something that doesn't require leaving yourself behind.
