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

Dear Lorraine, I’ve Got Mum Guilt

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

We have a monthly theme each month, which kicks off with a pre-recorded Masterclass with me.  These sessions are the very best bits of what I have learned on the monthly theme, and the tips that I pass on to my mentees most.

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.

The Best Expert Advice

Making his return to the show is…. my husband!

Wade hasn’t been on the show for quite a while so I’m excited to bring him back for a big chat post our move back to Australia from Spain.  He also answers questions from my listeners.

We talk about: 
What's exciting him about life right now
How his business went from a multi-million dollar valuation in February 2020… to being wiped out by COVID lockdowns 
What he actually does for work (I get this question a lot!)
The one topic that men always want to talk to him about when they meet him 
The concept of “inner honour” for men 
What I see as his greatest strength 
The traits he respects in other men
His recommended reading and resources for men looking to level up their lives
How women can support men to be in their masculine energy, and men can support women to be in their feminine energy
The recent retreats and personal development he has experienced - and how I’ve perceived the changes in him afterwards
How we manage to have time together and apart, and why it works so well for us
His “one parent” policy
His recent adventures in coaching other men 

I hope you enjoy this conversation between us as much as we enjoyed having it.

Resources he mentions:
Outlive, Peter Attia
Mastering the Rockefeller Habits, Chet Holmes
Sell Like Crazy, Sabri Suby
Mankind Project retreats
Kade Fallins retreats
