“Mr. Poopy Nappy.” Athena Kugblenu on the motherhood stretch

This week’s episode sees Lisa and Alix chat to comedian and writer Athena Kugblenu about just how far you end up stretching yourself when you’re a working mum. From the art of embracing interruptions to the value of keeping a stash of bribes handy, Lisa, Alix and Athena share how they (try to) avoid reaching breaking point when the stretch becomes too real. Plus, they listen in to some more voice notes from the Stylist audience, with stories including a tear-stained carpark negotiation and an inadvertent rendition of Humpty Dumpty during a work call.   Want to contribute a voice note to a future episode?
