No Filters, no Frills, and often, no Frigging clue; Motherhood Laid Bare with author Rebecca Oxtoby

This week's guest is Rebecca Oxtoby, author of the humorous yet brutally honest book for first time mothers: "Mum's the Word- the sh*t nobody tells you about parenthood until it's too late"

Brave New You TRIBE podcast Host, artist & illustrator, Lou Hamilton chatted with Rebecca, as they discussed how after fertility treatment, and being truly grateful for having a baby, the reality of going from high achiever to being in the simultaneously  underwhelming and overwhelming world of new motherhood hits like a bolt from the blue. Rebecca had post-natal depression and started to write as therapy but realised her words might also be a life-line to other new parents like her. In this way this Woman of Courage brings us her Story from the Edge.
