     Welcome back to Season Two of My Mama Summer. What a blessing it is to be spending this time with you and to have you spending your time with me. That's something I truly appreciate because time is the number one gift we all have. I always encourage anyone I meet to use it wisely. And if you think spending your time wisely means listening to this podcast, I want to give you a big shout out and let you know how much I appreciate you being here. So in the second season of My Mama Summer, we're going to continue to document my life. I'm going to bring more interviewees on in the topics and the areas of life that I am exploring and expanding in.My birthday is the 2nd of January. And so for me, a Gregorian new year is a new year for me. I've just moved into my, dare I say it, 40th year here on planet earth. And I feel a shift. That shift for me is towards simplicity. And this has been coming for a long time. I've mentioned over and over and over again on this podcast and in my articles at mymamasummer.com that I have felt overwhelmed and burnt out and disillusioned by the frantic pace of life. And this is the year that all changes for me. How do I know that? Because I am taking charge of that. I am heavily minimising social media in my life this year. I will be having someone take over my social media so that I don't need to be there. I may still have a presence, but I will also have a filter. And that filter is what is really important to me. I've had too many inputs coming into my world for so long, and I've been so busy that I haven't known how to stop them. Like many people, the only way I've known how to stop them is to ignore them, but they still keep coming. And this means that that moves me further into feeling like I'm behind, feeling like I'm a bad person, because not everyone views apps and tools the way I do.Email for me is a little bit more like snail mail. I might take a week to get back to you. If you WhatsApp me, I'll try and get back to you, but it might take me a few days. Facebook and Instagram messages, we're talking more of a month. And that's because they're not my priority. My priority is my family, recording this podcast, and writing. That is where my passion lies. So if you're someone who wants to get hold of me quickly, the best place for you to do that is on my Substack, which you can find at mymamasummer.com. Over the last season of this podcast, I’ve built a really beautiful community of humans interested in the same topics that I am, who are experiencing the same challenges as I am. And it's really beautiful to know that you're not alone when you're going through challenges. So, I invite you to join us on Substack because it is a place that feels so different. It's like hanging out with your besties and having real conversation. That's where I'm going to be hanging out this year and beyond. I am done with fragmenting my time. And you'll see this in the episodes that I have coming out. They're all about the deep work, about focusing on the tasks that really matter and making headway on the projects we're passionate about. And so for me, this year, there are three projects that I'm working on. Of course, there's My Mama Summer. There is this podcast and it's accompanying Substack Publication, which I would love for you to subscribe to at mymamasummer.com. There is also my business community, Freedom Hackers. This is where I mentor unconventional parents in how to build a business that gives them freedom. And I've just started another Substack publication called Simplicity Business. So if you're looking to start something new this year that isn't going to complicate your life, that you can fit in either around your current side hustle or around your current job, with a view to it becoming your main role, you're going to want to join me over there as well. The URL is simplicitybusiness.substack.com. And the third project, which I'm so excited to talk about is, drum roll, myself. I have never put myself on the list as a project, but now is my time. Four years after giving birth to my daughter, now is my time to shine. My time to take care of myself. It's my time to revamp how I feel. To look after myself from the inside, to start moving my body. To figure out how I'm supposed to feed myself, and do business and parent my daughter and do all of the things together.And also how to feel good in my skin. This is a big one for me. I'm going to explore that from many angles this year. I've just read a book by a lady that I'm hoping to bring on the podcast. This year for me is about stripping it all back, finding what's really me and leaving the rest. And living with the seasonality and the rhythm for myself that I truly honour and use with my daughter. It's time for me to prioritise myself. And I'm going to share how I'm doing that with you along the way in season two of the podcast.So I thank you for being here and for being interested in what I have to share. It truly means so much...

We dive into first-aid remedies, the principle of "like cures like," and why homeopathy works so effectively on children, pets, and even plants—dispelling the placebo myth once and for all.Lisa also reveals the history of homeopathy, its transformative potential for acute and chronic conditions, and why it poses such a threat to the pharmaceutical industry. Whether you're curious about building a home remedy kit or eager to understand how homeopathy supports emotional and physical well-being, this episode will leave you empowered to take charge of your family's health.Warning: This podcast is not a highlight reel.

    I share my struggles with confidence, reflections on how societal expectations shaped my self-image, and the small steps I’m taking to redefine what beauty means to me.

    This episode is a candid exploration of vulnerability, identity, and the journey toward self-acceptance. If you’ve ever felt unsure about how you show up in the world, this one’s for you.

    Tune in for a raw, relatable take on finding beauty in the everyday—and in ourselves.

    In every episode, you’ll get insights into the depth of what it really takes to build a business, whilst being a present mama, living a life outside the box, and doing the work it takes to be who we’re meant to be.
