The first glimmers of “it gets easier”
Description
I went into the Christmas break braced for impact, convinced that weeks without daycare were going to send me over the edge but instead, something shifted.
Olivia’s almost three now and for the first time I could see what people mean when they say “it gets easier”.
Slower days. Side-by-side play. Less fear of large blocks of unfilled time.
A feeling that we might be climbing out of the most intense bits of this together.
In this episode I also talk about money, the mental load of running everything solo and why anticipation as a parent is often harder than the thing itself.
If you’re in the thick of it, I hope this gives you a bit of hope that it won’t always feel like this.
This podcast was recorded on the lands of the Wangal people, of the Eora Nation.
I pay my respects to Elders past and present.
