I finally say the thing every mum thinks but nobody admits — I don't enjoy playing with my kids all the time. From Barbie marathons to being cast as the sick dog in pretend vet, I unpack the guilt, the generational shift in what we expect of ourselves, and why just watching from the couch is more than enough.
In this brutally honest solo episode, I tackle the guilt that comes with not wanting to sit on the floor and play pretend for hours on end. I talk about the soul-leaving-your-body feeling of being asked to play cafes, the tiny dictator directing Barbie scenes, and the craft supplies I wish would disappear forever.
