A very important Dear Lorraine episode this week - I’m responding to listener Elke, who says: “I’m thinking about returning to work post baby and I’m struggling with Mum Guilt.”

I’ve taken a wider lens in my response to her, and talked about Mum Guilt more broadly.  

I cover: 
The importance of separating out societal-induced Mum Guilt, and our own motherly instincts
My two experiences of Mum Guilt 
Celebrating yourself as a mum 
Women as the “emotional thermometer” of the household 
How I pushed myself too hard after having Lexi

I so hope this episode helps to soothe your soul and reinforce your own innate wisdom and worth as a mother.

I see you!

My Bali retreat is happening again in October.  You can find out all about it here: lorrainemurphy.com.au/retreat-2024

AND I’m hosting my first Aussie retreat in a very long time.  Haven is happening on the NSW Central Coast in November, and Anthony is hosting a breathwork session.  Find out more here: lorrainemurphy.com.au/haven

The Lorraine Murphy Show

Dear Lorraine, I’ve Got Mum Guilt

The show is baaack!!  After an extended break, the show is back with a zhoosh and a raft of new episodes coming your way.

In this episode, I catch you up with what I’ve been up to, new plans for the podcast, some exciting new developments for my business… and I take you behind the scenes of my recent Bali retreat.

I want to share this with you to hopefully inspire you to plan a retreat of your own (and maybe even with me!), and also to answer any questions if you’ve wondered what ACTUALLY happens on retreat.



I share: 


The flow of the six days


The team that helps me 


The tricky creative challenge I had with this particular one


The powerful - and super fun - healing I invented for the group 


The most common themes and challenges this group had


The biggest change I’m making for my retreats next year



Your next chance to join me on retreat in Bali is next year, from 26th-31st May.  

It’s approaching half full already (!), so if this experience is calling you I suggest you book soon.  There are both private and twin rooms available, and you can pay upfront or via a monthly payment plan.  All the details are here: lorrainemurphy.com.au/bali-retreat-may-2025

The oracle cards I mention are Helen Jacobs’ The Little Sage deck.

I also mention my current Last Chance Flash Sale… that’s only available until this Sunday 24th November.  I’m retiring my 5 standalone online programs as I’m introducing one flagship program in 2025.

Before I do that though, I’m giving you one last chance to snap them up… for a crazy price of only $79! 

This means you save $200-$900 per program, and if you bundle up and purchase all five, you save a whopping $2,222.

Doors only open twice a year and they’re open right now… until Thursday 26th September.  Find out more and join at bolddarling.com.

This is your opportunity to benefit from three micro-Masterclasses with me, and be a fly on the wall to life as a Bold Darling member!

You’ll learn:
Why your energetic frequency is so critical in the manifestation process, and how to do that….  (my MINDSET month Masterclass)
How I recommend every business owner sets up their bank accounts (my FINANCE month Masterclass) 
Why profile building isn’t necessarily easy - and how to move through the resistance that comes up with “putting yourself out there” (my PROFILE month Masterclass)

You could be joining me like this every single month!  Sign up to be a Bold Darling member before Thursday 26th September.

And remember: all members who join this month will go into a draw to win a retreat with me in either Bali or Australia.
