Daycare Diaries 2.0: A good week, an average week, and a hot tip live from the car

We planned to release a special episode with InStyle editor Justine Cullen today, but daycare sickness had other plans. From gastro under two weeks ago, to fresh colds for my son and I this week, we are a bit behind and this low production episode is the best we can do for this Tuesday's release.

My favourite part of this episode is a tip from a very good friend of mine. It's made my day much more enjoyable after the guilt of cancelling two meetings and developing a cold overnight myself, and I highly recommend listening for that hot tip to re-frame your mind and re-shift your gears if you're at home with a sick baby, instead of working.

Plus, I share a preview of the fascinating story of Justine Cullen, which is coming to your ears next Tuesday.

I feel really lucky to be able to send my son to daycare, and I want to acknowledge that not everyone - as Anna Commons discusses in Episode 16 of Ready or Not - has this privilege.

While we absolutely deserve to talk about how challenging it is, this mindset gives me some perspective. So as with the first edition of daycare diaries, in this episode, I've tried to deliver the facts without the complaints.

This podcast was recorded on the lands of the Boon Wurong people of the Kulin Nation. The land on which I''m lucky enough to raise my son always was and always will be Aboriginal land.
