  • Loveee this pod!!!!

    This podcast hits differently, so authentic and unfiltered. I find myself laughing, nodding along, and thinking, ‘Yes! Exactly!’ It’s lovely to find something so real, relatable, and actually funny all at once. Every episode leaves me feeling a little lighter and reminded that we’re all figuring this parenting thing out together.

  • Just like listening to a mate

    I went to school with Leonie and I tell you, she has just as much spunk as ever. Particularly her solo eps put a smile on my face. For those looking for something more serious she certainly touches on that too by getting experts in. I work in family law and have stumbled upon excellent resources for my client’s by simply just listening. Definitely worth putting on the podcast rotation for the serious and fun stuff!
