About this episode

Holly Nicholson discusses the realities of motherhood, including challenges with her toddler and experiences with pregnancy.

You might remember Holly Nicholson from winning the heart of Pilot Jimmy on The Bachelor -  but these days her biggest challenge is negotiating with a toddler and surviving motherhood on minimal sleep. Since finding reality TV love, Holly’s gotten married, had baby Lenny and built a loyal following by sharing the very real side of mum life… and not just the cute Instagram bits. From toddler meltdowns to the relentless chaos of raising a tiny human, Holly’s refreshingly honest about the parts of motherhood that are messy, mundane and occasionally make you question your sanity. In this chat, Holly opens up about her struggles to fall pregnant, the challenges that came after Lenny arrived, and the things you should absolutely never say to a pregnant woman unless you’ve got a death wish.
