  • How to build confidence + believe in yourself again (even when you’re knackered)

    How to build confidence + believe in yourself again (even when you’re knackered)

    Motherhood didn’t make you lose your confidence - it buried it under the mental load. In this powerful episode, I’m sharing the five exact steps I used to rebuild my confidence from the ground up after becoming a mum. These are simple, practical tools you can use even if you’re exhausted, overwhelmed, and only have seven minutes a day to yourself. Because here’s the truth no one tells us: becoming a mother lowers your confidence and self-belief for up to three years. And yet… we’re never prepared for it. We’re never told why it happens. We’re certainly never shown how to rebuild ourselves from the inside out. In this conversation, you’ll learn: The surprising reason confidence drops in motherhood How to quiet your inner critic The truth about self-worth How to stop comparison spirals Why celebrating tiny wins matters more than big achievements Getting comfortable with being uncomfortable You can listen to the Dr Nicole Le Pera episode that Zoe references here: How to heal yourself with Dr Nicole Le Pera Remember to subscribe to Motherkind — it helps more mothers find the show and keeps our community growing.

    MOMENT | Never enough time? Try this new way to plan work and home
    Nov 24 2025
    If you’ve ever felt like you’re spinning too many plates, constantly catching up, and running on empty, this Moment is for you. In this short clip, Rachael Twumasi-Corson, entrepreneur, writer, and mum of four, shares two brilliant tools that helped her move from burnout to balance. She talks about doing an honest self-audit, what’s really taking up your time and energy and her simple 5-4-3-2-1 method that brings calm and focus back into busy days. We chose this moment because it’s such a powerful reminder that harmony isn’t about doing it all, it’s about doing what truly matters. Rachael’s approach is so compassionate and practical, and I think it’s going to give you a real sense of relief and possibility. In this Moment, you’ll learn: A five-minute daily ritual to help you feel calmer and more in control How to reset your priorities with honesty and kindness Why scheduling joy and rest is as important as work The mindset shift that helps you become the conductor of your own life This Moment is a gentle invitation to pause, breathe, and remind yourself: you don’t need to juggle everything perfectly, you just need to lead your life with intention.

  • Fun: why we've lost it, why it matters and how to get it back

    Fun: why we've lost it, why it matters and how to get it back
    Nov 20 2025
    If you miss the lighter, sillier version of yourself you used to be, this episode will help you find her again — even in the chaos of family life. Across thousands of conversations in the Motherkind community, one theme comes up again and again: fun quietly disappears for so many of us. Playfulness slips away. And most mothers aren’t even sure how to begin getting it back. In this uplifting and deeply reassuring episode, I sit down with play researcher and writer Emma Worrollo to explore why fun matters far more than we realise, not as something extra on the to-do list, but as a powerful support for resilience, regulation and connection. Emma explains how we slowly train playfulness out of ourselves as adults, why that leaves us feeling flat or overwhelmed, and what happens when we start to bring back even the tiniest moments of joy. Her “1% rule” is one of my favourite tools, a gentle, doable way to shift your mood without needing more time, childcare or energy. This conversation is your reminder that joy isn’t frivolous. It’s essential. And you absolutely deserve moments of lightness, even in the seasons that feel heavy. In this conversation, you’ll learn: Why fun disappears in motherhood — and how to bring it back The simple shift from play to playfulness that changes everything How playfulness strengthens resilience, regulation and connection Small 1% tweaks that make everyday life feel lighter Remember to subscribe to Motherkind — it helps more mothers find the show and keeps our community growing.
