What happens when life takes a turn you never imagined, and motherhood looks completely different from the picture you once held? In this heartfelt episode of The School Run Podcast, we sit down with Leah Scott — health coach, EFT practitioner, and founder of Bravely Together.

Leah’s story is one of courage, compassion, and resilience. As a mum who has navigated the challenges of caring for children with complex medical needs — including the heartbreaking loss of her daughter Paige — Leah has turned her lived experience into a mission: to help other mums reclaim their energy, wellbeing, and sense of self while caring for their children.

We explore:

• How Bravely Together was born and why community is so vital for mums in similar situations

• Practical wellbeing tips for parents who feel there’s “no time” for themselves

• The power of peer support and why being understood makes all the difference

• How simple daily practices — from hydration to movement to EFT tapping — can create space for healing

• Why resilience doesn’t mean “doing it all” but finding light in the chaos

Whether you’re a parent yourself, know a family navigating complex care needs, or simply want to hear a story that reframes what it means to find strength in adversity, this conversation will stay with you.

✨ Connect with Leah and find out more about Bravely Together via the links in our show notes. And if you enjoyed this episode, please share it with someone who needs to hear it.
