- Love Kate, but she gets very overpowered
I really enjoy a lot of the podcast and almost always agree with Kate, but I find it disappointing how Kate will dilute her own opinions a lot as the conversations with the others go along and the others disagree strongly. I wish Kate would stick to her guns a bit more because I truly believe most listeners are willing her to because they agree with her. The latest episode was quite triggering.

United Kingdom7 months ago - Disappointed
Was really excited to listen to this podcast as I love Kate and her journey with Rio & the kids. But found it a difficult listen because everyone was talking over her. Very overbearing cohosts which meant I was getting frustrated listening. Felt they kept trying to force their opinion into the conversation (even though their opinion was valid it came across too much!).
Going to go back to the beginning and try listen to earlier ones as reviews seem to be better.
Apple Podcasts2PodcastQueen1004United Kingdom9 months ago - Not keen on the new format
I really like Kate, I think she’s a brilliant mum and step mum, willing to learn and take ok board new ideas. I’m not keen on Cilla, I just feel she dominates conversations and is overly opinionated. She forces her points across and rarely listens to others.
Apple Podcasts3Salm75United Kingdom9 months ago - One host dominates conversations
I find Cilla a bit grating, she says her opinions as though they are facts and sometimes it feels like the other women can’t get a word in.
