Episode Description

I find out about Mum’s first doobie...

This episode we chat about the potential of me and Seth maybe moving in together, bad boys, the changing tattoo culture, William Faulkner’s As I Lay Dying- a hard read! and online real estate scams.

We then read all about Mum going down to her aunt's farm and riding motorbikes, horses and driving the car, playing netball and winning a game and then losing the next to a team of 14-year-olds, more spaghetti marinara, a dream about a party where everyone’s ‘bent’ (I learn what ‘bent’ means), a never-ending history essay, Mum getting annoyed at Gran for maybe ‘getting cold feet’ with Paddy, another viewing of Jubilee with ‘Adam as superb as ever,’ watching Rude Boy the film with The Clash and Mum experimenting with weed for the first time where she gets an ‘immediate buzz’

And MORE IMPORTANTLY we read about how Mum has 505 pictures of Adam, 505!!! This obsession isn’t going anywhere anytime soon...

As always, press play for part therapy, part entertainment, oversharing guaranteed...

Atiqah Abdul's a lesson a day Atiqah Abdul There was a question my mum used to ask when she’d pick us up from school— what did you learn today? She’d even ask that when we returned from something seemingly un-educational, like after going to the cinemas. They say there’s always something to learn even in the mundane. In this podcast/personal journal, Atiqah Abdul, a medical graduate and aspiring author shares her reflections on growing up as a migrant, on life, faith, cultures, the self and everything in between. Thriving and Surviving as a Solo Mum Thriving and Surviving as a Solo Mum It’s been a very long time coming. Hugest thanks to my best friends for their continued encouragement to start a podcast, previewed over many years of lengthy recorded voice messages! Chemmy's Chair Lift Chats Chemmy Alcott I used to throw myself down a mountain at 90mph now I am a mum of boys - baby Cooper and toddler Locki. My main goal in life is to make them smile. I feel like I am always on my limit - fatigue and stress wise - running a business with my husband, developing my public personality through TV and presenting and trying to find snippets of me time in the gym. But it is all worth is and I know I am ridiculously fortunate. The Journey of Motherhood Podcast The Journey of Motherhood Podcast I never know which part to start with….the personal or professional. But I guess when I think about what is most important to me….. above all else….it’s being a mother. I have 4 children between the ages of 8 and 15 years. I call them “the loves of my life” because truly that is how it is. But just as much as they can fill me with so much joy that I burst, they can also bring me to my knees.There is heaps I love about motherhood, some parts I’m indifferent to and a few bits that I don’t like. I wouldn’t trade it for the world and I wouldn’t be the woman I am today, without the experiences that motherhood has brought me.On top of all that I’m a Clinical (and Forensic) Psychologist. I’ll save the conversation about “what is a forensic psychologist” for another time. What I really want you to know is that one of the areas that I love love love working in the most, is with mums and their bubs, toddlers, pre-schoolers, primary and high school aged kids. The lot!There are so many reasons
