Guilt, Growth & Getting Real: The Journey to Loving Who You Are Now with Danielle Barrett-Wyatt
Feeling guilty for changing, growing or simply not being the “old you”? You’re not alone. In this episode of From Mum to Me, Keeley sits down with Danielle Barrett-Wyatt, the self-love coach behind Self Love Solves Everything, to talk about guilt, growth, self-compassion and reclaiming your sparkle. Together we explore: Why mums (and anyone in a caring role) feel so much guilt when they change or set new boundaries. How generational beliefs and societal pressure shape our self-worth. Practical ways to shift from self-criticism to self-kindness, including Danielle’s “glimmers vs triggers” technique. How small self-care rituals (like earrings on the school run or dancing in your kitchen) can transform your mood and confidence. Why crying is a superpower and how to reframe it. Letting go of the “I should” mindset and embracing “I could” instead. Why loving your past self is key to thriving as your current self. If you’ve ever felt lost, stuck or like you’re carrying mum guilt around like a handbag, this conversation will leave you inspired, hopeful and armed with tools to start loving who you are right now.

When Motherhood Isn’t What You Expected – With Mum Coach Helen Buteux
Motherhood doesn’t always look the way we imagined it would. Even with years of experience working with children, Helen Buteux found herself overwhelmed, doubting if her best was good enough, and struggling to care for herself alongside caring for her baby. In this episode, Helen shares her journey from occupational therapist to motherhood, the reality of identity loss, and how she discovered the concept of “matrescence”, the transformation a woman goes through when she becomes a mother. Together we talk about the pressure to “get it right,” the guilt that comes with needing time for yourself, and why it’s so important to look after your mental wellbeing as much as your physical health. We also chat about: Why early years development is so powerful and how play shapes resilience What to do when mum guilt sneaks in (and why accepting help is not failure) Simple ways to rebuild confidence and rediscover who you are after motherhood The cultural pressure to “do it all” and why asking for support should feel normal This conversation is real, relatable, and full of encouragement for mums who feel like they’ve lost a little bit of themselves along the way. ✨ Remember – you don’t need to go back to the old you. You can grow into a new version of yourself who feels stronger, braver, and more confident.

Beyond the Job Titles: Finding the Real You
Who are you really, beyond being a mum, a job title, or the person forever reheating cups of tea? In this bite-sized solo episode, Keeley shares a funny but oh-so-relatable story about being put on the spot at a networking event and completely freezing when asked to “tell us about yourself.” It sparked a bigger question: why do we always fall back on our roles instead of who we actually are underneath it all. With a little help (and sass) from her daughter, Keeley explores playful ways to rediscover your true self, like describing yourself as a recipe, picking your three defining emojis, or even writing your own wine label. If you’ve ever struggled to introduce yourself without listing your job or family role, this episode is for you. It’s about identity, playfulness, and remembering that you are more than the hats you wear. What you’ll hear in this episode: • Why “tell us about yourself” makes so many of us panic • The difference between roles and identity • Playful ways to uncover the real you • How kids see identity differently (cue: dinosaur emojis) • A fun challenge for you: describe yourself as a wine label 🍷✨ a little playlist that’s full of feel good vibes for you to use to get your sparkle back. - my little biz that helped me start to figure out I could be more than ‘just mum’ with me and see what I’ve been getting up to this week

Doing It Scared: Why Trying Is More Important Than Winning
Ever thought about trying something new and instantly heard that little voice saying, “But what if I’m rubbish at it?” Yep — me too. In this episode, I share what happened when I tried surfing for the first time (at 40, in the rain, and in a wetsuit I nearly cried over). From the anxiety leading up to it, to the self-doubt, to watching my daughter voice the exact fears I was secretly holding onto — this story is about more than surfing. It’s about why trying something new as an adult is so hard, how perfectionism and body image hold us back, and why actually showing up is sometimes the biggest win of all. Whether it’s a creative class, a sport, or just something that’s been sitting on your “one day” list — this episode is your nudge to stop waiting for confidence to magically appear. You don’t have to be good to start. You just need to be brave enough to try. ✨ You’ll hear about: Why adults are so resistant to trying new things How body image, confidence and perfectionism tie into it The power of “just showing up” Modelling bravery for our kids Why it’s okay to suck at something and still love doing it 👉 If you’ve ever told yourself “I can’t do that”, I hope this helps you realise — you can. And it might even be fun.
