Hosted by Dani, a writer, brand storyteller, and mother of two, this is a space for honest conversations about the stuff we don’t always say out loud: the fog, the guilt, the ambition that never really left, and the weirdness of trying to parent and be a person at the same time.
Whether you’re in the thick of matrescence, edging toward perimenopause, or just feeling a little lost, you’ll find thoughtful stories, warm reflections, and gentle reminders that you’re not alone. And you’re definitely not gone.

Ep2 with Belinda Batt: The guilt spiral: why mums feel like they’re failing
In this episode, I sit down with Belinda Jane Batt, founder of The Flourishing Mother and an expert in maternal guilt. We dive into why guilt is such a common feature of modern motherhood, how it affects our confidence, and most importantly, how we can break free from the guilt spiral.
Belinda shares her expertise in positive psychology and coaching, offering practical and compassionate strategies to help mothers balance their personal and professional lives without being overwhelmed by guilt.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly falling short as a mom, this conversation will help you understand why...and how to reclaim your sense of self and well-being.
Spoiler: You’re doing so much better than you think.--------------
Tune in to understand:
Where guilt and shame in motherhood come from, how they show up, and why they negatively impact our well-being
How to identify helpful vs. unhelpful guilt, and why the latter is problematic
What we can do to flip the script and socially un-condition ourselves from unhelpful guilt
Practical, evidence-based tools to move past guilt and flourish
