Summertime, and the living is easy? It's the End of the School Year, and the Mums are talking holiday plans.
Anke, Kim, Alisa, Rebecca, Heather and, starring for the first time - Tammy - are talking the low down on all of our summer plans. Find out where the mums are going, what we are doing, and how we are planning to manage the kids!
The mums discuss how will we get there, and how we think the kids will react. For those of us in the city, we discuss what will we do around town.
Do mums have goals and wishes for the summer? Or are we just trying to make it all happen?
As usual, during the podcast there is loads of laughter and chatter.
The mums also have a summer surprise of our own.. we will be around and about Edinburgh giving Mums a wee prize this summer! We know it's also important to look after Mum during the summer hols.

It's Almost the End of the School Year and the Mums are catching up on this final stretch...
The big question is... how are we doing? It's almost the end of the school year.. and the weeks ahead are stacked. How are we going to make it through the next couple of weeks to the school break?
Join Kim, Anke and Heather as we discuss fantasies about just keeping going past our offices and homes to Edinburgh Airport - but instead juggle everything from ceilidhs, to bake sales, to school discos. The mums discuss what would help us these days.. everything from more proactivity from the family, to time out for ourselves, to eating good food to keep us going.
Along the way we discuss why telepathy isn't a real thing around dinnertime... and the extent to which we will attempt to avoid the making dinner chore some days (including getting lost on a remote Scottish island). We also talk about what the dream would be including working one day less just to keep up on all the extras we are responsible for.
At the end of the day, we just hope that our kids have a good time and all of the experiences that they can, and that maybe it all pays off someday... preferably before we are too old to drive!

Extra! Extra! Read all about it! It’s ALL Taylor’s Version!
In a special Edinburgh Society of Unapologetically Imperfect Mothers podcast, our own team of MASSIVE Edinburgh-based Taylor Swift fans chat all about the latest Taylor Swift news.
That’s right... some of Taylor Swift's number one fans - Alisa, Rebecca and (introducing) Sarah - sit down to discuss and celebrate the news that Taylor Swift has purchased her entire catalogue of songs, films, videos from Shamrock Capital.
They trade ideas about what this means for T. Swift and fans alike whilst reminiscing about their special shared experiences of the ERAs Tour takeover of Edinburgh last summer.

It's Alisa's birthday tomorrow, and the ladies are chatting about being 40-ish and fabulous.
Why is being in your 40s (or 40-ish) so flipping fabulous? Kim, Anke, Rebecca, Heather and Alisa gather on the eve of Alisa's birthday to discuss why being this age is great.
The ladies discuss being mums in the context of being 40-ish... and with friends at various stages of life, it's clear that life is always interesting!
Discussion topics include what the ladies can't do without these days... everything from comfy pants to good friends -- as well as what we can't live with anymore!
All of us are really excited about hitting the day disco after this episode!

Midyear motivation... the mums are talking about 2025 goals (if they existed and can be remembered) now that May has disappeared...
It's almost June, and in the midst of the mid-year madness, the mums are talking motivation and goals... what were they at the start of the year, and how are we tracking?
Are goals a good thing? The mums discuss how goals can provide purpose and fight stress and depression... but what if our goals can't be met, and what happens when we encounter failure?
The mums talk about everything they can remember with regard to this year's goals and how they are allowed to change...
