About this episode

Motherkind Moment is your place for calm and connection and a shift in perspective before the week ahead.  This week’s Moment is with Sarah Ockwell-Smith, mother of four and one of the UK’s most well-known parenting experts. In this clip, Sarah opens up about her powerful realisation that, for most of her life, she had been the “good girl”, pushing down her emotions and keeping busy doing what she thought she should do. I know so many of you will relate to that. She bravely shares how recognising this pattern and choosing to change it set her free to experience more joy, calm, presence, and a deeper connection with herself and those around her.
