Do We Need Help?

Liv Clarke and Carla Berry

Since becoming a parent, have you ever had a moment when you stop & think to yourself, ummmm - do I need help?! (like, mentally lol). After meeting in antenatal classes, Liv & Carla became besties after bonding (oversharing) over their ups, downs & hair-pulling-out moments of being new mums - the perfect recipe for a podcast.So, grab a wine & settle in for your weekly catch up on every random thought, unwarranted mental spiral & moments of motherhood that really make you think, do I need help?!
