On the Sofa with British Mums Episode 4 October 2023
We’re talking multi-tasking this week on Episode 4 of ‘On The Sofa with British Mums’ It might feel like there’s always an endless list of jobs as a mum, but this half-term we chat to Kat Kearsey, who is not only Chairwoman of Gulf For Good but has a full-time job, is a mum to two wonderful children, dabbles as a DJ and tasks herself with completing a list of exciting challenges on a yearly basis. Also juggling two jobs and motherhood is our very own Katie Chambers, who is very much at home behind the mic and has somehow signed the whole community up for a camel hike – it’s all in the name of helping others though so we’ll let her away with that one!https://britishmums.com/dubai/events/https://gulf4good.org/https://www.instagram.com/gulfforgood/
