Becoming
Your real world audio guide to early parenthood
Because no one hands you a manual for motherhood… so we made one you can listen to.
You’ve read the books (well, skimmed them).
You did the birth class.
Now you’re here…knee-deep in nappies, caffeine, and chaos wondering why no one prepared you for this part.
Welcome to BECOMING, your real-world audio guide to early parenthood.
Short, practical, science-backed episodes for parents in the first two years, taught by two mums who’ve lived it, studied it and know exactly what you need (and what you don’t)
For the newborn blur, the toddler chaos and all the “is this normal?” moments no one really prepared you for.
Becoming is for you if…
You’re a first-time parent figuring it out on the fly.
You’re in the 0–2 year blur and everything feels loud, messy and a bit much.
You want honest, non-judgy support from two mums & experts who get it.
You’re too tired for long lectures, but hungry to understand what’s going on with your baby, your body, your brain, and your relationship.
Real talk. Real tools. Zero guilt.Becoming will help you:
✔ Decode your baby’s cues without spiralling into Google
✔ Build a secure attachment through micro-moments, not perfection
✔ Soothe yourself and your baby using simple nervous-system tools
✔ Reduce resentment with practical relationship tools
✔ Build the foundations of your family culture
✔ Feel less alone, less overwhelmed, and more confident
This is the “I wish someone told me this sooner” guide for new mums.
