Can We Fkn Talk?
Have you ever had that moment in Motherhood where you’ve wondered, “Why did no one tell me this BEFORE I had a baby?” Well I’m here to change all that by having the conversations you wish you had before becoming a parent.
I’m Ashleigh Scrivener, a Connective Parenting and Mindset Coach passionate about supporting Mums to put themselves first so that you have the capacity to respond to your child’s needs and connect not only to yourself but your kids as well. With over 10 years in the early childhood education and care industry, I know a thing or two about early childhood development, children’s behaviour and supporting families through the early years, but when I became a parent myself, I felt like a fish out of water. I love supporting Mums find more ease in their parenting, personal and professional lives while saying goodbye to Mum guilt for good.
This show will feature conversations, stories, helpful tips and parenting support from guest experts and parents with the goal of sharing publicly the conversations every Mum needs to hear.

Can We Fkn Talk?
009 | Nita I - Identity, overcoming guilt, and finding balance in Motherhood (Part 2)
In this episode of Can We Fkn Talk?, I sit down with Nita to dive deep into the journey of Motherhood and the challenges that come with balancing personal identity and parental responsibilities. Together, we unpack the often-overwhelming emotions of guilt and shame that many Mothers experience when they desire to reclaim their sense of self. Nita shares her candid story about navigating societal expectations, mental health, and the transformative power of setting boundaries and finding routines that work for her.
We discuss:
- The internal and external pressures of Motherhood, including body image and societal judgments
- Practical strategies for managing anger and emotional regulation
- How to communicate effectively and compassionately within relationships
- Tips for Mums on balancing career goals with the demands of parenting
Content Note: This episode includes open discussions on postpartum mental health, body image, and the emotional complexities of returning to work as a new parent. If you find these topics sensitive, please listen with care.
