    A thoughtful & insightful show about the day-to-day struggles of modern life & family!
    I highly recommend this new podcast hosted by the Telegraph’s star reporter Claire Newell. She treats this important & difficult topic with great care and thoughtfulness - but also humor and the right amount of lightness. I had no idea that there was no regular maternity/parental leave for MPs - the interview with Stella Creasy is really eye opening. It’s really comforting to hear successful women (and men!) speak about the struggles they face with juggling work and family life - it shows that we’re all dealing with the same problems. I can’t wait for more episodes!
