  • Emma Barnett: Why maternity leave should be rebranded as maternity service
    Quick note about this episode before I introduce it - the audio quality isn't up to the usual standard. I've done what I can to improve it, and hopefully it doesn't take away from the importance and brilliance of the conversation. That said...My guest on this episode is the fantastic Emma Barnett. Emma is a presenter and journalist, currently on BBC Radio 4's Today programme and formerly presenter of Woman's Hour.Emma joins me to discuss her new book Maternity Service: A Love Letter to Mothers from the Front Line of Maternity Leave which looks at what maternity leave is really like for millions of new mums. Emma talks about her own experiences from her two 'tours of duty' and questions why it's called maternity leave which it involves no actual leave...Buy Emma's book: https://amzn.eu/d/2KtDOkBFollow Emma on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/emmabarnett/Buy Emma's ace colouring books: https://colouryourstreets.co.ukIf you enjoyed this episode then please leave a rating or review - and you can follow the podcast to ensure you don’t miss future episodes.

    My guest on this episode is someone who is my online go-to for parenting advice. Clinical Psychologist Dr Martha Deiros Collado shares wise, thoughtful, evidence-based views on her Instagram posts and she is the author of the brilliant book How To Be The Grown Up, which has just come out in paperback.Dr Martha and I discuss what she has learned about herself since becoming a mum and how her kids have taught her new skills. We also cover how time-poor parents can navigate research and studies about parenting and children, knowing what to listen to and what to ignore.Dr Martha talks a lot about emotional regulation, both teaching ourselves how to process our own feelings, and how to model to our kids and teach them how to regulate their emotions. A really hard one to do!And we also discuss screen time, how it's not the enemy we're led to believe, why we shouldn't demonise smartphones and how to work out what a healthy screen and device relationship looks like within your family.Follow Dr Martha on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.martha.psychologist/Buy her book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1787636887This episode is brought to you by The Baby Show and I am really excited to share that Not Another Mummy Podcast is the Official Podcast Partner for The Baby Show Excel London 2025.

  • Indu founders Reena Hammer & Aaron Chatterley: The teen skincare boom and how to navigate it as a parent
    My guests today are Reena Hammer and Aaron Chatterley - founders of teen beauty brand Indu.They talk to me about the teen and tween skincare boom which has seen young girls flock to buy large numbers of products - often aimed at adult skin.We discuss which ingredients parents should be looking out for - and avoiding - on their teen's bathroom shelf but also, how much of it they think should be a brand's responsibility to discourage young buyers vs parents or even the government.Aaron also explains how it was a conversation with his own teenage daughters which led him to launch Indu, a cool teen beauty brand with safe ingredients.
