I haven’t been posting much lately, because behind the scenes, I’ve been pouring all my energy into something that truly matters to me.

The book is finally done. Uploaded. Ready.

But this phase? It’s a different kind of work.

Now, I’m reaching out. Emailing, writing, pitching, trying to place this book into hands and platforms that could really help share it.

Because I believe in it.

Not for me, but for the voices within it.

Milk Tales isn’t just a book.

It’s a mirror for mothers who felt unseen.

A space for stories that deserve to be heard.

So no, I’m not “doing it all.” (Also becasue I have my business to run)

But I’m doing what matters, with heart.

🤍
P.S. If you know someone who might want to feature, share, or support this project, I’d love to connect.

After three rounds of printing...

three envelopes opened with hope...

and three quiet disappointments!

I almost didn’t film this one.

But I did.

Because this time, it felt different.

The small tweaks, the colours, the paper,
they’re still not exactly how I envisioned them.

The photo quality isn’t perfect.

But the message they carry? That part is.

And that’s what matters most.

It took four proofs.

Four rounds of edits, questions, and “maybe this isn’t ready.”

Still seen through a critical lens…

but this time, I finally let myself feel it: Pride.

Milk Tales is a book made with love, with stories that deserve to be seen.

And releasing it during World Breastfeeding Week couldn’t feel more right.

✨ Available from the 1st of August.

I can’t wait to share it with you.

One thing’s for sure: this book is one of the things I’m most proud of.

But the process?

Cry. Laugh. Repeat.

I’ve reviewed it so many times I’ve lost count.

And sometimes… I genuinely don’t know what I meant in a line I once thought was brilliant.

Creating Milk Tales wasn’t just about photography or stories, it was about pouring my whole heart (and probably a few brain cells) into something that matters.

Because this book means something. To me. And, I hope, to the mums who read it.

Coming soon.

Drop a 🤍 if you’re excited too, I can’t wait to share more with you.

Not all breastfeeding stories start with ease.

And some carry more than we can see.

This wasn’t just a photoshoot, it was a moment to honour a deeper journey.

One that mixed pain and joy. Loss and healing.

Feeding her baby… and feeding her soul.

The plasters were symbolic. So was the baby’s breath.

But the emotion? That was all her.

And honestly, it stayed with me.

If this speaks to you, know you’re not alone.

We carry so much. And sometimes, we need someone to see it.

My book will hold this story and many others like it.
If it speaks to your heart, save it. Or share it with someone who needs to feel seen. 🤍

Natalie and Sara aren’t just sisters-in-law, they’ve walked side by side through the early days of motherhood, holding space for each other’s struggles and joys.

This session was a reminder that we don’t have to do it alone. In motherhood, as in business. That when stories are shared, healing begins.

That sometimes, the most powerful thing we can offer… is simply to be there.

And that’s the heart of my book: sharing stories, truths and experiences that make us feel less alone.

If you’ve ever felt supported by another mum, tag them below. Let them know they mattered.

And if you’re curious to read more stories like this one… keep your eyes peeled for news about the book release coming very soon!
