Friendship Beyond Brunch: The wisdom of Jane Austen & Throwing away perfection

It's been a busy week in Edinburgh... the mums and families are just returned from the February school holiday, with the kids heading back to school!  Lissy, Rebecca, Tammy, Kim and Heather sit down to chat about the school break.  Family trips to Morocco, Tenerife and London are discussed along with what was happening around town.   The Mums are back at the Edinburgh Playhouse next week to see Matilda and couldn't be more thrilled!  From March 4th to March 22nd, Matilda the Musical with music and lyrics by Tim Michin (listen in for a great story about this artist) will be in Edinburgh a great prices.  Look for more great content from the Mums next week on Instagram, Facebook and TicTok as the Mums chat all things Matilda! Moving on the Mums talk Olympics and Rugby (Scotland!!!) before launching into the main topic of the day: the 3 Pillars for Friendship....Symmetry, Support and Secrecy!  Find out all about this theory of good friendship with the Mums.  What do you think of each of these pillars? The Mums chat about attempting to be that "Perfect Friend".... Is there undue pressure to be perfect for Mums?  Even in Friendship?  Does the "squad goals" trope make real-world women feel lonely or "inadequate" because their friendships are scattered across different social circles rather than one tight-knit group? Finally the Mums wrap with a chat about one very notable historic friendship... that of Jane Austen & Anne Sharp.  Despite their massive dfference in social standing, they were eachother’s intellectual equals showing that true friendship often flourishes not because of social similarity, but because of mutual respect. Join the Mums on this third installment of "Friendship February" as they laugh, chat and set the world to rights! #femalefriendship #ukmompodcast #edinburgh #scotland #matildathemusical Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/real-nice  License code: WROMHBTJ1CUCYMOB
