Justin is on a mission to use his phone less. Find out what he has done this week that has been a freeing (albeit slightly inconvenient) experience.
In response to last week's episode 'Mum Break', a lot of women are saying they could never leave the kids and go away for a week! Kylie and Justin discuss why this is the case and what can be done to support and encourage mums to take some time out for themselves.
In this episode:
- Unplug Childhood
- Deleting apps from devices
- Dropping social media
- The never ending laundry cycle
- A shout out to all the extraordinary single parents listening!
- "Mum breaks" - why they aren't happening more
- The 'martyr syndrome' of motherhood
- Dads need to step up
