Joely Chilcott: Motherhood, Career Pressure & The Modern Media Mum

Joely Chilcott: Motherhood, Career Pressure & The Modern Media Mum

In this in-person episode of Milk & Mummies, I sit down with Joely Chilcott — Content Director at POPSUGAR UK — for an honest, grounding conversation about motherhood, identity and the myth of “having it all.” Joely shares her life before motherhood, her pregnancy and birth journey, and the real adjustments of becoming a new mum. Together, they unpack the pressures modern mums face, how media shapes motherhood narratives, and whether the idea of “having it all” even serves us anymore. We dive into: Life before becoming a mum Pregnancy, birth and adjusting to new motherhood Balancing ambition, creativity and family Media representation of mums — what’s working and what isn’t The overstimulation of modern motherhood: advice overload, comparison culture and chronic pressure Redefining what “having it all” truly means If you’re navigating identity shifts, mum guilt, career tension, or simply trying to stay human in a world that demands everything — this episode is for you.
