126 - Life Lately: When the Working Mum Juggle Stops Juggling
In true catch-up episode style, we’re chatting all things life, motherhood, expectations vs. reality (hello, Mother’s Day), rain-induced cabin fever, and the juggle of being a working parent. As well as a big update from Kate. We’re not crying, you’re crying.
We dive into the why behind Kate’s decision, what she’ll still be doing with Boob to Food, and the messy, beautiful reality of honouring your values in motherhood, even when it means making a big change.
For those who are tuning in for the first time, a little about us…
- Luka McCabe – founder of Boob to Food, author of Milk to Meals and Toddler to Table, as well as mum of 3
- Kate Holm – naturopath, nutritionist, General Manager and Clinical Director of Boob to Food and mum of 3
In this episode, we chat about:
- The Mother’s Day that didn’t quite go to plan…
- Why rainy weather tests every parenting limit
- The behind-the-scenes juggle of running a business while raising kids
- Kate’s big decision and what it means moving forward
- Navigating identity, guilt, and joy as a working mum
- The reminder that seasons shift, and it’s okay to realign when they do
