Who Even Are We?

Kids EN ↓ 971 episodes

After millions of downloads and years of oversharing on Am I A Bad Mum?, Katie Mattin and Rachel Thaiday are introducing Who Even Are We. Who Even Are We? is a twice-weekly podcast about identity shifts, friendships, parenting teens (or nearly teens), marriage, confidence, chaos, and all the things no one prepares you for. From honest confessions to ridiculous stories and conversations that swing from hilarious to heartfelt, nothing is off limits and nothing is polished! It’s real life, real friendship, and real talk for anyone who’s ever looked around and thought… who even are we now?
