  • M's The Word E1 | Media Myths & the Mother Load at Christmas
    Nov 10 2025

    Episode 1: Media Myths & the Mother Load at Christmas

    Welcome to the very first episode of M's The Word!! The bold new talk show and podcast where we dive into money, motherhood, mindset, and every other "M" word that matters.

    In this episode, we're unpacking media myths and the emotional overload of the holiday season - and yes, we're talking about that controversial Diary of a CEO episode where financial experts claimed you shouldn't buy a house (!).

    We also get real about:

    • Why advent calendars might need to be cancelled

    • The cofusion of unrealistic and one sided financial advice online

    • How Christmas hits differently when you're managing a household

    • The mental load, mum guilt, and the myth of "having it all together"

    It's honest, it's eye-opening, and it's the start of something real.

    🎙️ Hosted by Sarah Tucker, with Gemma Bennett, Jade Timpson-Proud & Shelley Walker
