Mamma Social - The Podcast

Right, buckle in, because this week’s episode is a proper rollercoaster. 

We’re chatting about our chaotic half term - from dreamy playdates and trips to castles, to night terrors that had us questioning reality and, of course, the grand finale of chickenpox just to round things off nicely. 

We’re also talking all things Father’s Day - including a failed barbecue, questionable flat-pack furniture, and whether it’s actually worth the hype or just another day where the dads get spoiled and we do all the work. 

Expect plenty of laughs, a few rants, and maybe some questionable parenting choices. 

Standard.

Highlights:

(03:10) The Sunderland match party

(08:43) Mash the dog tries calming patches

(17:01) Night terrors and the haunted baby monitor

(29:13) Father’s Day or just another barbecue fail?

(36:38) Kids' breakfast: Cheerios, ketchup, and glitter

(42:04) Big Yorkshire puds and even bigger opinions

In today’s episode, we’re sat on bin bags, leaking emotions (and other things), and getting real about motherhood, mindset and manifesting - or at least trying to. 

Expect cold coffees, missing groceries, suspicious pint-stealers and some strong opinions on toxic positivity. 

It’s chaotic, it’s funny, and it might just make you feel a bit more seen if you’ve ever tried to “visualise your dream life” with a toddler hanging off your leg.

Highlights:

(12:42) Greggs for breakfast… and a cold coffee

(18:17) Dale’s pint gets hijacked in the pub (bold move)

(20:03) Someone wanted to hump me husband

(28:28) Is manifesting just cracking on, really?

(34:09) You can’t manifest with your arse on the sofa

(41:12) You’re not dead - there’s your positive

Right, let’s be honest - money talk as a parent can feel a bit like a ticking time bomb, can’t it? 

One minute you’re buying bird’s eye fish fingers without a second thought, the next you’re questioning your life choices in the cleaning aisle at Asda. 

In this episode, we’re chatting all things money: the highs, the “what even is in my account” moments, and how we’re trying (and sometimes failing) to get a grip on it all. 

From budgeting attempts to tick-tales (yes, really), it’s all in here. 

Highlights:

(03:31) I thinned my own hair. Chaos followed.

(11:08) Fourth Wing has taken over my life

(18:20) Eva’s birthday fairy

(26:48) Found a tick. In me leg. Lovely

(38:54) Money’s tight. Still bought the smelly beads

(51:14) Bought bins for every bathroom. Life changed

This week we’re talking about the stuff none of us really want to think about… but absolutely need to. 

We sat down with the brilliant Amy Lyons from Rose James Finance to talk all things life cover, income protection, pregnancy policies (yep, that’s a thing), and why it’s time to finally sort out your life admin. 

This chat genuinely opened our eyes, and if you’re a mum, business owner or human who relies on your income - you’re going to want to listen. 

It’s not scary, we promise - and Amy makes it all make sense.

Highlights: 

(02:45) Why sorting your life admin really matters

(08:10) The wild misconceptions about life insurance

(13:22) Pregnancy policies you didn’t know existed

(18:37) The story that made us all panic

(27:48) What child cover actually gives you

(33:03) Income protection isn’t just for the self-employed

Right, this episode… honestly, we bloody loved it. 

We’ve got the absolute whirlwind that is Angela Merish in the studio - she’s one of those women who’s just full of ideas, chaos, graft, and heart. 

We chatted all sorts - losing parents, being a Mam later in life, building a boss business while also trying not to lose your mind. 

There’s laughs, there’s tears, and there’s definitely a few moments where we forget we’re even recording. 

It’s a proper good one.

Highlights:

(01:11) She’s batshit but we love her

(10:41) Adore the chaos… or at least try

(19:22) Parenting through grief. No rulebook, just tears

(31:01) 50 quid flights. 24-hour journey home…

(36:18) Wine isn’t self-care. Who knew?

(44:16) Feathers, grief and proper Mam moments
