Me And My Tiny Human

Why the hell would anybody do this?

16 min • 3 december 2024

Welcome to the very first episode of Me And My Tiny Human!

A show that's been a LONG time coming...for me. Not so much for you.

You probably saw it five minutes ago and thought I'll give this a go, meanwhile I'm over here thinking for the last year and a half, "I should really do this podcast."

But unfortunately, I had set everything up and the plan was to put it together during mat leave.

HA!

Can you pick the person who's never had a baby before?

But I'm here now and that's the main thing. 

And in this inaugural episode I'm answering a question I get asked A LOT and that is "Why the hell would you do this, you idiot?"

Seems harsh?  Well, not really.

I'm a single person with no family around and no help, other than the help I pay for (which ain't cheap...bye bye savings).

So, I understand why people don't know why I'd make the leap and do it solo, because looking after a baby isn't easy, even when you've got a lot of support around.

In this episode I talk about why I decided to go it alone and why the idea of having a baby on my own has never felt like a consolation prize. 

This podcast was recorded on the lands of the Wangal people, of the Eora Nation.

I pay my respects to Elders past and present.
