Mum Knows Best

Hello beautiful mamas,
On today’s episode we have Nikki Steele Osborne, founder of The Scottish Soul Sister, which supports parents to gain the confidence and clarity to cut through the noise and overwhelm to raise their family on their own terms. 
Living in four countries outside of her home of Scotland shaped Nikki both personally and professionally to bring you an honest, humorous approach with no sugarcoating and no scaremongering.Her own experience of Post Partum Depression and Anxiety when her son was born in 2017 was the catalyst to becoming a coach, speaker, author of Homebird and creator of the award winning digital resource Stepping Into Parenthood.
Nikki’s work encourages you to meet your own Six Human Needs with simple, sustainable selfcare. Her mantra is soulful support for the messy, beautiful reality of parenthood.
We loved chatting with Nikki, she is a true open book. 
Much love, 
MKB

Hello lovely mamas,
On today’s episode we are joined by the wonderful Avarni Bilan.
Arvani is a former fashion university lecturer who spent 10 years working in the dance music industry. She now balances life as a full-time mum while building two new businesses. Alongside motherhood and work, Avarni has spent the past several years training as a shamanic healer. Shamanism and energy healing have become a significant part of her motherhood journey, shaping the way she approaches both parenting and personal growth.
We loved chatting with Avarni, her openness and honesty was truly incredible and we are so lucky that she chose to share her story with us. 
Much love, 
MKB

Hello mamas,

Lucy is a graduate of University College Cork in Parent and Relationship Mentoring and holds a first-class honors master’s degree in The Psychotherapy of Relationship Mentoring and is a post-graduate (PhD) researcher.

Hey mummies!
We're back with the lovely Lucy Cousins. Lucy is a mother to Birdie, who's nearly two, a freelance hair stylist specialising in fashion colours and owns her own thriving business No.15 hairdressing.
We had such an open and honest conversation with Lucy, where she really opened up about her post-partum experience and navigating her own mental health difficulties. Thank you so much for sharing, Lucy! We loved speaking with you. 
Much love,

Currently navigating the journey of single parenthood with a spirited three-year-old by her side. Resilient, determined, and rising stronger with every challenge - because every setback fuels an even greater comeback. 
We had such a fabulous conversation with Kate, where she really opened up about a cancer scare during pregnancy and navigating single motherhood and all that comes with that. We so appreciate Kate's honesty and authenticity and we loved chatting with her!
