Drop The Super Mum Mask with Carrie Newport

Send us Fan MailYou can be doing all the right things and still feel like you’re disappearing. That’s why this chat with Carrie Newport hits so hard: it’s honest, practical, and full of hope for any mum who’s been stuck in survival mode for years and quietly calling it “normal”. Carrie is a single mum of three, an author, and a certified life coach, and she shares how she stopped just functioning and started truly living again. We talk about the pressure to wear the Super Mum mask, how fear of judgement keeps women isolated, and why finding community as a mum of teens or adult kids can be just as important as those early years. Carrie opens up about writing her book from decades of journalling through grief, divorce, and deep challenges, and we get real about the hidden cost of creative work and purpose-led business: the learning curve, the stretch, and the need to keep going when the “shift” hasn’t happened yet. Carrie also shares the coaching tools she leans on most, including her seasons framework for healing, and a tiny habit that’s perfect for overwhelmed mums: five minutes to write three sentences, no polishing required. We weave into parenting neurodivergent kids, autism advocacy, and why life skills, love, and a fair go can matter more than grades. If you’ve been asking, “Where did I go?” or “Is it too late to find myself?”, this one will meet you right where you are. Follow Carrie on Instagram @cariemarie38 or on Facebook Carrie NewportSubscribe, share this with a mum who needs it, and leave a review so more women can find the support they’ve been missing.Support the show🎧 Enjoyed this episode?
