72 Why Women Suddenly Need More Space

Why do so many women suddenly feel desperate for more space? I'm not talking just bigger homes but Mental, Emotional spac and Breathing room. In this episode, Jools sits down with interior designer and founder of Home Shape Style, Bex, to explore the surprising psychology behind the spaces we live in and why our homes affect our nervous systems more than we realise. This conversation goes far beyond cushions and paint colours. Together, they explore: 🦩why women often start changing their homes when they’re changing internally🦩the emotional impact of clutter, overstimulation and “not fitting” your environment anymore 🦩how motherhood changes the way we experience safety and belonging 🦩why your home is never really “finished” 🦩the hidden connection between identity, nervous system regulation and the spaces we live in 🦩how to create more calm, comfort and autonomy in your home without a full renovation If your life looks fine on paper but something still feels “off,” this episode will hit deeper than you expect because sometimes the craving for more space… isn’t about the house at all.

71 Returning to Work After Kids Is Harder Than Anyone Admits

This is one my most listened to episodes because finding your path once you have kiddies is a wild ride! And then returning to work after having children is one of the biggest transitions many women experience, yet it’s rarely talked about honestly. In this episode of Mama’s Flight Path, Jools Raye sits down with Jessica Chivers, founder of The Talent Keeper Specialists, to unpack why the workplace still struggles to support parents and what needs to change. They explore the reality many working mothers face when returning to their careers after maternity leave, from identity shifts and guilt to navigating expectations from employers and colleagues. Jessica shares practical insights on flexible work, compressed hours and how organisations can create environments where parents can thrive instead of burn out. If you are navigating motherhood and career, or wondering how to redesign your working life after children, this conversation will resonate deeply.

70. Why Manifesting Stops Working After Motherhood

For years, manifesting felt natural to me. Vision boards. Big goals. Unexpected opportunities. Even meeting my husband felt like something I had consciously called into my life (you can read the full story in this weeks Best Magazine) Then I became a mother. And something shifted. Not just emotionally. Neurologically. Like many women, my brain moved into survival mode. Creativity felt harder to access. Vision felt further away. The dreams I once felt so connected to suddenly felt blurry. In this episode of Mama’s Flight Path, I share a surreal moment that reminded me how powerful intention really is. Seeing myself in a magazine triggered a reflection on manifestation, motherhood, and the surprising ways our brains change during matrescence. We explore why manifesting isn’t magic. It’s alignment. When your heart, mind, and actions point in the same direction, life begins to reorganise around that clarity. If you’re a mother in your late 30s, 40s or 50s who feels the quiet pull to redesign your life, reconnect with your ambitions, or simply remember what you want again, this episode will resonate deeply. Because motherhood doesn’t erase your dreams. But it does require you to rediscover them in a new way. • Why manifesting is about alignment, not magic • How motherhood rewires the brain and shifts focus into survival mode • Understanding matrescence and the identity shift after children • Why ambitious mothers often lose clarity on their goals • How visualisation and metaphors reconnect us to our deeper ambitions • Redesigning life and career after motherhood Join the Flock Drop Newsletter www.mamasflightpath.com [mamasflightpath.com] ⚠️Disclaimer: This podcast may cause breakthroughs and life enrichment !
