I’m an OG Growing listener from 2022. Love how the podcast has evolved over the years! Absolutely adore listening to the weekly eps - it has been so relatable for pregnancy, mum life and I love the knowledge and expertise weaved through the eps!
As a midwife and a woman deep in the TTC era I absolutely love this podcast, it’s like chatting to two besties while I’m walking the dog or cooking. I love that it feels like my family will be (hopfully) growing along side yours. Thank you for your candour and comedy, we love you xx
This podcast is so real and relatable. The conversations are genuine and they make you feel scene. Love all their episodes 🩷
You 2 are just a breath of fresh air in amongst the chaos of mothering 2 small people. I feel like I’m chatting with friends. Your insights and growing pains are so relatable and make me feel so seen. Thank you 🤎
I started listening to growing early 2025. At first I was just a causal listener and as the episodes kept coming my love for growing grew. It has been such a delight to listen to Beth and Lilly every Wednesday. I also have two girls 5 and 1 and relate so much to all the topics and weekly growing pains and glimmers. Very excited to listen in 2026. And thank you for sharing so generously with us each week. It’s so kind and inspiring. ❤️❤️❤️
