Are you a writer trying to squeeze creativity into the spare moments between packing lunches, wiping bums and taming tantrums? Or perhaps you are driving teenagers around, navigating screentime, and writing in carparks on your notes app? Whatever stage you are in, motherhood and the writing life can be tricky bedfellows! In this podcast, Nadia Mahjouri, mother of five, author of Half Truth and a counsellor specialising in maternal mental health interviews Australian authors, writers and creatives about how they manage to keep creating in amongst the messy middle of motherhood.
