About this episode
Here is something a little bit different for you this week on The Motherkind podcast. I was recently interviewed on the Parental Control My Baba podcast with the lovely Leo Bamford. I’m sure many of you know that podcast and perhaps listen to it. I enjoyed the conversation so much, I thought I would put it out here as our episode this week. Leo and I had a such wide-ranging conversation. She was such a fantastic interviewer. We chat about: The power of giving ourselves just a few minutes Feelings and emotional health Identity Digital overwhelm Matressence Modern motherhood We teach our children by modeling more than anything we say.- Zoe Blaskey As always, we continue the conversation over on Instagram, so come and join us there.
