One of the sponsors on this week's episode is Kumon, the UK and Ireland's largest supplementary education provider and we are delighted to be working with them again.

0:09.0

We are regular listeners to the podcast, we have heard us speak about Kumon before and there's actually a free trial from the first of October to the 15th of November where families new to Kumon can try out maths and English study programmes for seven days with no obligation to sign up.

0:25.0

Yeah, this is incredible. Kumon is for children of all ages and abilities, whether your child would benefit from being academically stretched and challenged more than school curriculum allows, then Kumon is for you.

0:36.0

Also, if your child needs to build up the foundations necessary to improve their confidence and ability in maths or English and their grades, Kumon is probably for you as well.

0:46.0

Exactly, Kumon is really one to help them build the self-confidence and mindset they need to succeed. Plus, with Kumon Connect, children can now study and complete work sheet digitally on their tablet.

0:58.0

This means they're even more accessible and convenient, plus it makes feedback easier to you.

1:03.0

Yeah, that sounds like the Georgia seal of approval to me. Visit Kumon.co.uk forwardstashtrial or Kumon.i.e forwardstashtrial to book your seven day free trial today.

1:14.0

This is a paid advertisement from BetterHelp. Now, Georgia, big question for you today. Do you ever feel like your brain is getting in its own way?

1:22.0

A hundred percent so, and I'm sure any parent listening knew or with a few years under their belt like us will identify with this too.

1:29.0

Like that moment when you finally get your little ones to sleep, get into bed and you can't sleep yourself even though you're exhausted.

1:36.0

Yeah, honestly, hearing you talk about that actually really resonates with me. It's more of a feeling like we're constantly on, and I don't know, all of those racing thoughts keep on racing.

1:46.0

One of those times where you know what you should do and what's good for you, but you just can't do it.

1:50.0

That is exactly it, and that's what therapy can come in. We speak about therapy a lot on the podcast, and that's sort of what it is in a nutshell.

1:57.0

Therapy helps you figure out what's holding you back so you can work for yourself instead of against yourself.

2:03.0

Yeah, I think it's safe to say that is exactly what both of us took away from therapy, isn't it, George?

2:08.0

With over 1,000 therapists in the UK already, BetterHelp can provide access to mental health professionals with a wide variety of expertise in mental health.

2:16.0

2:27.0

Hello, and welcome to Made by Mommas the Podcast. I'm Zoe, and I'm Georgia, and we're here talking all things parenthood.

2:35.0

You know, the real conversations, tips and tricks, products we love, and brands we can't live without. Let's get into it.

2:41.0

Hello. Hello. How are you? I'm good. I'm actually good. I'm not going to lie, I do feel quite knackered.

2:48.0

And I always, again, like I hate it when people talk about how tired they are, because I'm like, just go to bed and get some rest.

2:55.0

But as we know that when you're on the treadmill of parenting and working and juggling, there isn't that much opportunity to get more rest.
