Hello, my lovely. Welcome to Motherkind podcast. Thank you so much for being here. I'm your host, Zoe Blaski, and this is the show that's going to help you navigate motherhood with more ease, connection and compassion. Welcome to this first ever brand new community episode of Motherkind.

I am absolutely buzzing to be launching this today.

Our Motherkind community is an incredible one.

Every day I get messages from you telling me about your lives, your experiences in motherhood.

And I find these messages so inspiring

and helpful and connecting that I just don't want to keep them to myself anymore. So every

Friday, for the next six weeks, we're going to pilot this and see what you think of it. I'm

going to chat to one of our Motherkind community to share their story. This week,

it's Amy. Amy is a solo mum to her five-year-old daughter. In this episode, she tells us how

she's navigated anxiety, perfectionism, and a really harsh relationship with herself in motherhood

to today feeling so different and Amy shares exactly

how she's done that. I loved Amy. She is so warm and wise and funny as you're here. I really

hope that you love this new format. I hope you love this episode. Please do. Let's know what you thought. Please do share it.

And here it is. Help your family stay healthy this winter with Sambacol, the UK's number one

supplement brand for immunity. And they have sponsoring the podcast this week. Winter bugs are just the worst.

And if you get ill as the parent, it is so challenging and it's probably even harder

seeing little ones unwell.

So it's important to keep your family's immune system healthy.

Sambacol immunity supplements are packed with natural black elderberries and vitamin C, which contribute

to the normal function of the immune system. And Sambacal supplements are available in

delicious formats, including liquids and gummies for both children and us the adults. Shop

sambicle at boots.com. Amy, I'm so excited to welcome you to our brand new community episode.
