Summary
In this episode of SheerLuxe Conversations, Sarah Templeman (Hodge) is joined by presenter and friend of our show, Olivia Wayne, and the founder of CEO YOURSELF, Hermione Olivia. Together, they discuss their experiences navigating the pivotal six-month stage of parenthood, starting with the importance of self-care, before sharing the joys and challenges of caring for children as they grow. The three also touch on the pressures of meeting developmental milestones, adapting to changing sleep patterns and reacting to the uniqueness of each child. Olivia and Hermione also candidly explain how they approached weaning, the messiness that comes with it and the emotional rollercoaster of feeding little ones. They emphasise the importance of community and support – be it from family, friends or fellow parents – and discuss the significance of dropping the guilt that often accompanies parenting decisions. Finally, the trio reveal how much they’ve changed as mothers, especially as they continue to find their rhythm and reclaim parts of their identities.
