E8: Sisters… who are doing it for themselves!
Episode description
In this week’s episode of The Family Unfiltered Podcast I was so honored to be joined by my older, but definitely not wiser, sister Katie (I am sure she will disagree!) We reminisced about our childhood; fun-filled days spent playing with our cousins as well as some horrible pranks my brother and Katie played on me! And looked at our polar opposite parenting life… and skills!
She shares her open and honest journey of motherhood; from planning her first child at age 19, being a single mum to three, having to count the pennies and not overthinking the big stuff …you know, like taking your three kids on an 8 week European road trip like it was no hassle! Yes, her laid back approach to parenting is in some way inspiring!
In this episode we discuss:
- Childhood memories
- Single parent life
- The importance of having an open and honest relationship with your kids
- Life on a budget
- Making ‘grand’ gestures
- Not overthinking
- Home education

The Family Unfiltered Podcast is the un-preachy, non-teachy parenting show that shares the joys, struggles and hilarious adventures of real family life. This is the REAL LIFE side of parenting; the highs, the lows, the laughs, the tears and everything in between. On this podcast we discuss everything from childcare to how this podcast came to life from host and blogger Hayley Burtt’s desire to create a blog that showed what a real, unpolished nuclear family is all about! This is a behind the scenes look at what happens when you are juggling kids, tantrums, poos, injuries, school runs, running businesses and dealing with various and ever evolving versions of mum guilt. Think of this as an audio blog post that shows the madness behind this particular family tree… in fact, the stories, emotions and honesty is going to be so real that you should think of this like having a cup of tea with your best mate!
