Help We're Outnumbered!

Episode 10: Faith, Foundations and Four Loud Children – Raising Kids with Belief

It’s the final episode of Series 1! We are getting real about raising kids in a home where faith is central — but don’t worry, it’s not preachy!!  We talk about why having shared values matters, how we try (and fail) to keep things consistent, and what faith looks like in the middle of chaos, meltdowns, and deep questions from our six-year-old. Whether you’re religious or not, this one’s all about building a solid foundation for your family.  Thanks for laughing and surviving parenthood with us this season — see you in September for Series 2!

Episode 9: iPads, Lies & the Good Parent Olympics (Screen time, Useless Gadgets & Parent Competition )

This week, we’re diving into the parenting guilt spiral. From handing over the iPad just to brush our teeth in peace, to the bedtime lies we whisper with a straight face. We unpack the absurd pressure to be a “good parent” in the age of berry-based crafts and Instagram-worthy stories, plus the baby gadgets we massively regret buying. If you’ve ever bribed your kid with screen time or hidden in the bathroom for five minutes of silence, this one’s for you.

Episode 7: Parties Over. Parents down (The Kids Takeover)

This week… we’re exhausted! The twins had their second birthday party over the weekend and honestly, it's Sunday night and we're running on fumes! There were balloons, there was cake (everywhere), and way too many toddlers in one room. Safe to say, we’re outnumbered AND out of energy. So this week, we’re handing things over to the real bosses around here – the kids. That’s right, we sat down and asked them the big questions: What’s the best food? What are Mummy and Daddy bad at?  What rules SHOULD we have? Spoiler: the answers are chaotic, unfiltered, and very much kid logic. It’s short, it’s silly, and we’re not totally sure it counts as a podcast episode – but here it is anyway. Next week, we want to hear from YOU! We’re doing a Q&A for episode 8, so send us your parenting questions, stories, or just general cries for help. whatever’s on your mind. Let’s muddle through it together. @hwopodcast [https://www.instagram.com/#] Thanks for listening, and if you want leftover cake,  send us your address.

Episode 6: Eeyore in a Lightning Mcqueen T-shirt (Being the Middle Child)

This week, it’s all about our middle child – Eli. Our four-year-old bundle of cuddles, Hot Wheels fanatic, and old soul! We’re having a chat about what it was like going from one kid to two, how Eli handled the absolute mayhem of the twins arriving, and why we lovingly refer to him as “Eeyore”. He’s basically the Tails to Noah’s Sonic, the most likely to have a meltdown over toast, and still sneaks into our bed most nights like it’s no big deal. From navigating all the feelings to surviving on a diet that’s 90% beige, this one’s for anyone raising a sensitive little soul who knows exactly what shape their toast should be cut into – and isn’t shy about telling you. Expect laughs, a bit of chaos, and a few random-but-crucial parenting lessons we’ve picked up along the way,  like why you should never, under any circumstances, give him the wrong cup. Seriously. Just don’t. Send a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2499499/open_sms]
