Show Notes
In this episode I am talking to the brilliant co-founder of Becoming Mums, Fi McQuay. I absolutely LOVE the work that Fi and her co-founder Beth Allum are doing, supporting Mums in the Berkshire area with the groups that they run and the community they have created.
In this episode, Fi and I speak about:
- anxiety in early motherhood
- how 'Becoming Mums' came about
- the power of community
- holding space for stories
- being given unsolicited advice
- the sanctuary of non-judgemental groups
Themes: Motherhood, Mental Health, Postnatal Support
