Conversations with Her Herd Podcast

Welcome to Her Herd, a podcast for rural mums, by a rural Mum.

Hi I’m Jen, your host and founder of Her Herd. Thanks so much for joining me. Her Herd is a safe space. A place for rural women to share, learn and feel empowered and supported in their motherhood journey. Each week I’ll be chatting to country mums’ and health care professionals, bringing you fertility, pregnancy and birth stories to help guide and inspire rural women on their motherhood journey. We’ll discuss the complexities of parenting and the influences that develop our mothering. Pregnancy and birth often presents many unknowns, often with limited options, especially in our rural health communities. But as you’ll hear, rural mums are resilient. So join me as we explore the narratives, values and experiences that weave together to contribute to our overall being as mothers. Let this podcast be your best friend, sharing your happiness, your grief, and laying out the sh*# noone tells you.
