Summary

Motherhood is a rollercoaster. It's brilliant but it's wildly difficult too. One thing that can make it feel less all-consuming is being honest with one another and ourselves, something best friends Cat & Nat, who have 7 kids between them, know all too well. Though their conversation with Clemmie is full of laughter, it touches on some important Mum Truths: from finding your village to avoiding judgement and also the reality of post-baby sex (or lack of it).

0:00.0	Hi, I'm Clemy Telford and it's time to get open and get honest.
0:09.1	Each week, I interview a guest about a topic that we as a society often shy away from.
0:14.8	From sex lives to salaries, life and death, religion and real bodies, no subject is off the table.
0:21.9	Welcome to Honestly, the podcast.
0:28.6	Even thinking about this episode makes me smile.
0:31.6	For those who don't know Kat and Nat, they're extraordinarily successful mum friends,

0:50.5	and most recently coming over here to London, which is where I was lucky enough to
0:54.5	catch up with them. Once we got over the fact that me being in their present suddenly made me
0:59.5	comically British, our conversation was a joy. So geographically we are miles apart. It was so
1:05.1	refreshing to be in a room with two people I'd never met before, but who shared my values in the
1:09.7	way I feel and talk about motherhood.
1:12.1	In particular, the importance of humour, the importance of removing all judgment and, of course,
1:18.2	being honest with one another. We also got into some more specifics, like those awful cushions
1:23.6	you get post-labour and how you go about navigating conversations about sex and
1:29.7	drugs with your children, which is all yet to come for me. I really couldn't have thought of two
1:34.3	better people to have an honest conversation about motherhood with. I hope you enjoy listening to
1:38.9	it as much as we did recording it. So this podcast is called Honestly. So it's all about being
1:43.5	honest, which is,
