About This Podcast

Join Tanya Valentin (NZ neuro-affirming family coach) and Emma Gilmour (AUS alcohol-free & neurodivergent women’s coach) for honest, heart-led chats about being late-diagnosed AuDHD, perimenopausal, parenting teens in burnout, and trying not to lose ourselves (again). We cover masking, menopause, motherhood, identity, friendship, grief, and the messy magic of raising neurodivergent kids. This is a podcast for every mum who’s ever felt like she’s doing it wrong, too much, or not enough. Expect laughter, raw honesty, a little swearing, and a whole lot of validation.
