• Communication is a Human Right with Dr. Mazal Tasgal | S3 | E12
    May 15 2024

    Rachel and Sarah are joined by the absolutely awesome Dr. Mazal Tasgal as they talk about all things communication. They dare to go off the ‘middle of the road’ pathways to explore the ways to nurture and develop communication, building on our innate ability to communicate with our child, right from the start.

    You can learn more about Mazal’s work here, and also the wonderful charity who supported her family at the start of their journey at special effect.

    Rachel and Sarah also share their To-Do lists (even their secret ones!) and Rachel finally figures out what Number 5 actually meant - (it was Turtle Braces)

    We’d love to hear from you – we love sharing stories, we love hearing how things are going, the good, the bad, the snotty-crying ugly.

  • Many Different Types of Sh*t | S3 | E7
    Mar 27 2024

    Join Rachel, Sarah and Lucy for episode 7 of 'The Skies We’re Under', as they navigate one plumbing disaster after another.

    Life can throw both figurative and literal sh*t our way sometimes. The trio reflect on this with their usual good humour and lack of filter.

    It’s also friends and family day today, with not one, but two cameos from our family members! We talk about how we cope with helpful comments that aren’t so helpful, and how to appreciate those around us who try and understand the skies we’re under, even if they aren’t under the same rain cloud (or sh*t storm - whatever you prefer.)

    We’d love to hear from you – we love sharing stories, we love hearing how things are going, the good, the bad, the snotty-crying ugly.
