The Unhelpful Guide To Motherhood

It's been two years of this small business life and we're still going! We may have pivoted, we may have changed more than once but one thing remains, we're still here and still learning. Take a listen to how it started, the changes we made and why, including the details of the first business change we made because we were told by industry experts we couldn't do something specific. We share all and...

This is one you are going to want to save if you are planning travel or are going to soon! Shantel (travel agent for 6 years) shares her insider tips on booking travel, travelling with kids, airplane tips and the what to do and not do when you are getting ready to book.

Join us as we discuss what happened on our trips, what we learned and if we would do it again! Listen to PT 1 if you haven’t yet!

Tune into part one of the travel diaries with Shantel and Lina. We talk about our upcoming adventures as a pregnant mum with a toddler and a family with a newborn and toddler travelling for 10+ hrs on a flight. Part two will be released soon about how everything actually went (let's just say.. we learnt alot haha!)

Join us as we share our very different journeys on feeding. Breast vs bottle, what we found most difficult, what we learned along the way and everything else.

Join Shantel and Lina as we share some of our pregnancy and mum brain moments as well as some that have wrote in! Laugh with us at some of the things we have forgot, cried over or just some of the crazy emotions that come along with pregnancy and motherhood.

This episode we look back on pregnancy and current pregnancy for Shantel, birth and post partum items we either really used and loved or simply didn't. We absolutely know that its always based on your own personal preference as well so while we know whats helped us, it may look different for you. Either way i hope you can laugh with us on this one!

We're all about saving and budgeting where possible and being frugal and smart with our money and time! This is an episode we've found helpful for us and hope it'll be the same for you, so tune in and take notes! We hope we've helped our mama community with this one!

We're going back in time to hear from Lina and how she went with sleep training her first child while she was heavily pregnant with baby #2. Take a listen to see what helped her and what didn't!

Potty training can be challenging, funny, slow in progress and annoying but it has to be done! This episode we hear about Shantel and Lina's experience toilet training their toddlers. What worked, what didn't worked and how to help their babies be confident with the potty.

We loved hearing from one of the My Loxxi husband's about their experience with fatherhood, so it seemed only natural to interview the other My Loxxi husband, Mr Carl Sevita and see how he's been finding fatherhood to two little people. Such a fun interview listening to the males perspective on parenting, tune in to hear more.

So! This episode was planned and recorded while Lina was heavily pregnant (which is now old news as she's given birth!) But we wanted to take that opportunity to interview our husbands on fatherhood. So tune in to hear all the things from Jorge and how he's been going with parenthood (and soon to be father of two!)

A lot has happened between the last few episodes we uploaded, so we thought we'd do the right thing and share some updates on our lives. Our growing families, the new shift with a newborn, being pregnant and even our small business venture. Tune in to get all the details!

Tune in to another fact check on our recently uploaded episode about selfcare because let's face it, we like to ramble sometimes with no real evidence so if you're after a laugh, stick around!

Tune into this week's episode about all things self-care the My Loxxi ladies.

Let's tune into this week's episode and make sure we set things straight with our facts about Lina's birth story. And if you haven't listened to it, head on back to Episode 6 to get the full details of her experience.

This episode we tune into Lina's birth story with her baby boy Valentine and get the inside scoop of her experience with pregnancy, labour and more.

Sometimes, just sometimes, Shantel & I will share details that aren't exactly true. So we've made an entire episode around some of those things we've shared with Shantels birth experience and what the actual facts are! Enjoy!

We dive into Birth Story part 1 which is all about Shantel's experience with giving birth to Isabella from the lead up, to being in the hospital and post partum. Enjoy!

There is just too much to talk about, we couldn’t do it all in one episode! So this is our fact check on part 1 and let’s just say, we missed a lot! We ask so many more questions about pregnancy, even those odd ones you just don’t know who to talk about it with, we go there!

We unpack all things pregnancy! Lina is currently pregnant and holds NOTHING back! The good the bad and the ugly. We are sure this episode will have you laughing and cringing!

Who are Lina and Shantel, what is My Loxxi? I am sure you have got tons of questions. Well this episode takes you through the ladies behind the mic and why they have started this podcast.

Woo hoo! It’s happening! Join Lina and Shantel as they share a bit more about what you can expect in the podcast! Subscribe now!
