Beyond Play is a podcast brought to you by Fisher Price and hosted by Jayde Couldwell and Sophie Pearce of Beyond the Bump Podcast. Season 2 of Beyond Play has come to an end with our final episode of this season. We have interviewed some amazing mothers and explored the wonderful world of first time parenting -the good, the bad and the ugly. In today’s episode we chat to the amazing Steph Miller (who you may know as Steph Claire Smith). Co founder of Sunglasses company Soda shades AND Keep it Cleaner- Steph wears many hats, one of which being a mother to her gorgeous boy Harvey who was only 5 weeks old when we interviewed her. It was amazing to chat to a woman so early into her journey of motherhood. We chat to Steph about her long pregnancy and her mental health towards the very end, how she prepared for birth and what the first 5 weeks have been like. A huge thank you to Fisher Price who are trusting us again with bringing the stories to life of the women we got to interview throughout this series.
