Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Caroline Foran on raising a neurodivergent child and managing anxiety
Q: And what PDA is, and what it looks like in Caelan?
PDA is a profile within autism where there is a persistent drive for autonomy and a strong need for control, which shows up when routines or demands feel like threats to the nervous system; understanding this helps tailor responses to support regulation rather than impose pressure.
Dr. Clodagh Campbell on adoption, postpartum depression and attachment
Q: What do you hope your daughters learn from watching you navigate these experiences?
She hopes her daughters see living consciously, resting when needed, spreading kindness, and designing a life on their own terms aligned with their values, not just chasing achievement.
Dr. Clodagh Campbell on adoption, postpartum depression and attachment
Q: How has life been with three kids and navigating postpartum changes?
She discusses the challenges of moving, starting new schools, and adjusting to three children, acknowledging a difficult year with mood shifts but highlighting awareness, grace, and practical steps to manage energy and expectations.
Dr. Clodagh Campbell on adoption, postpartum depression and attachment
Q: Can you share your experience with adoption and how you found out?
The guest recalls growing up knowing she was adopted and describes the early awareness and later validation through personal and professional exploration, including therapy and adoption-focused research; she emphasizes normalization of the experience and how it shaped her view of motherhood.
The pause every mum needs - How to finally prioritise yourself
Q: Do you have a real community that supports you, that supports your children, and that you rely on?
Panelists affirm that they have created their communities and developed support systems, acknowledging the importance of social networks in navigating motherhood.
