The Confident Mum

This is the highly anticipated third installment of our three-part allergy series in honour of Allergy Awareness Week which took place between 26th -30th April 2021 here in the UK. The topic of focus was FOOD allergies, particularly in children. I was joined by Holly Shaw, Clinical Nurse advisor at Allergy UK one of the largest Allergy charity organisations in the world. She generously took the time to help answer questions from The Confident Mum listeners and offer practical tips and advice on for example;

What do if you suspect your child has an allergy
The symptoms to look at for
The importance of food Allergy Awareness
How to manage the "fear and anxiety" that being a food allergy parent can bring and so much more.

Hi Mums

Happy International Women's Day! and welcome to another installment of The Confident Mum Mumspiration Monday. While there is still a long way to go for women, women are doing so many great things and this week's guest is no exception, in fact, she has been a trailblazer in her field for years! She is the fabulous Kubi Springer of @shebuildsbrands.


Now Mum's you may be thinking BRANDING is something that relates to big corporations and/or celebrities and you are right, it does! I too was thinking this and wondered how this topic would relate back to the everyday Mum like you and me but being the expert that she is, Kubi breaks it all the way down and does so effortlessly.


In this episode we also discussed;

💫'I am my brand' (which is also the title of one of her amazing books) and why Personal Branding is therefore for everyone!

💫Rubbing shoulders with some of the biggest celebrities

💫 Values and Vision

💫The significance of non-negotiable "me time".

💫How 'Crisis built her brand' (Kubi's forthcoming audiobook) and how your crisis can actually help you to build your brand! and so much more.

It was a pleasure to be joined by Kubi her energy was amazing, she is a genuine advocate for women which makes the timing of the episode even better. Her journey was and continues to be very inspiring. So enjoy the episode and I will see you on the next one. If you are enjoying the podcast please remember to subscribe and review on iTunes.

Psychological trauma can often be misundertood, downplayed or even totally ignored. Yes even by the victim. Many factors play a part including; Stigma, Culture and different types of Escapism. On this episode I interview Dionne from @lovelaidbare podcast and we discuss the role therapy can play in helping One to cope with Trauma. We also look at the benefits of therapy and the potential negative implications of long term unresolved trauma. This is great interview that everyone can benefit from so please share! #motherhood #maternalmentalhealth #mentalhealth #healing #epigenetics

In light of the recent Black Lives Matter movement and white people/corporations and institutions stating they are now "listening, learning and unlearning" I want to stress that actions speak louder that words and that action is needed now more than ever. Therefore, I am Amplifying my unique Melantated voice to the topic.
