The Night Feed: The Podcast for New Mums

Modern motherhood is loud. Between social media, parenting advice, notifications and the endless mental load, many mums aren't lacking self-care, they're lacking silence.
In this episode, I share one simple, free self-care habit that can help calm your nervous system without needing childcare, money or hours of spare time: creating a daily "No Input" pocket.
If you're feeling overstimulated, touched out or mentally exhausted, this episode is a gentle reminder that sometimes the best thing you can do is... nothing at all.

Did Covid quietly destroy “the village” mothers once relied on?
In this episode, I explore how motherhood has changed since the pandemic and whether modern parenting has become far more isolated than previous generations.
From family “dropping in” to neighbours helping with babies, many mums grew up hearing stories about a village that simply doesn’t seem to exist anymore. But did Covid permanently shift the way we parent, socialise and ask for help?

Why does modern motherhood feel so overwhelming, even when you’re doing everything right?
In this episode of The Night Feed, I explore the growing impact of the attention economy on mums, and why today’s mothers are experiencing a level of mental load, overstimulation and pressure like never before.
From endless scrolling during night feeds to constant comparison and parenting advice online, it’s easy to feel like you’re always “on” and never quite enough.
In this episode, I cover:
Why motherhood feels more mentally exhausting in the digital age
The impact of social media on postpartum mental health and comparison
What the “attention economy” actually means for mums
Why overstimulation is one of the biggest hidden struggles of motherhood
The shift away from sharing children online and “sharenting fatigue”
How to feel calmer, more present and less overwhelmed
Plus:
A listener story: “Baby Monitor Fail” — a toe-curling moment every mum will fear (and laugh at)
A feel-good email on finding small, realistic ways to rebuild maternal self-image

If you’ve ever felt overstimulated, exhausted, or like you’re constantly comparing yourself to other mums online, this episode will remind you that you are not alone, and you are not failing.
Because you were never meant to compete with an algorithm!
