<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In this week's podcast episode I had the pleasure once again, (there was a deleted file incident that we won’t mention 🤪) to interview an incredible couple that I met at my son’s school. Both named Claire, (not confusing at all), we caught up during Pride month to discuss being a same-sex married couple.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In the interview we talk about the logistics and struggles of having a baby in a same-sex couple, raising a child plus we dig deep into their past, finding out when they both identified as being gay, how those close to them reacted, IVF and sperm donation, society reflections and, of course, how they met! Yes it is an incredible episode jam-packed full of wow moments.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In this episode we discuss:</span></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Having to ‘come out’ on a daily basis</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">The feeling of being different </span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">The process of getting pregnant</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Dreams of an open world </span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Section 28 </span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Travel ban list! </span></li> </ul> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you would like to connect with the Claire’s you can find their social info below:</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Insta https://www.instagram.com/cw_coaching_nutrition/</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Facebook</span> <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/clairewarburton003"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">https://www.facebook.com/clairewarburton003</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span></p> <p><span style= "font-weight: 400;">https://cwcoachingandnutrition.hbzoom.com/</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">For more information about what was covered in this week’s show or to connect with Hayley head to: </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Connect with Hayley Appleby Burtt:</span></p> <p><a href= "https://www.facebook.com/hayleyapplebyburtt1/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">www.facebook.com/hayleyapplebyburtt1</span></a></p> <p><a href= "http://www.instagram.com/hayleyapplebyburtt"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">www.instagram.com/hayleyapplebyburtt</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Connect with Family Unfiltered:</span></p> <p><a href="http://www.facebook.com/familyunfiltered"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">www.facebook.com/familyunfiltered</span></a></p> <p><a href= "http://www.instagram.com/familyunfilteredofficial"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">www.instagram.com/familyunfilteredofficial</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Read the Family Unfiltered blog:</span></p> <p><a href="http://www.familyunfiltered.co"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">www.familyunfiltered.co</span></a></p> <p><br /> <span style="font-weight: 400;">The Family Unfiltered Podcast is the un-preachy, non-teachy parenting show that shares</span> <span style="font-weight: 400;">the joys, struggles and hilarious adventures of real family life. This is the REAL LIFE side of parenting; the highs, the lows, the laughs, the tears and everything in between. On this podcast we discuss everything from childcare to how this podcast came to life from host and blogger Hayley Burtt’s desire to create a blog that showed what a real, unpolished nuclear family is all about! This is a behind the scenes look at what happens when you are juggling kids, tantrums, poos, injuries, school runs, running businesses and dealing with various and ever-evolving versions of mum guilt. Think of this as an audio blog post that shows the madness behind this particular family tree… in fact, the stories, emotions and honesty is going to be so real that you should think of this like having a cup of tea with your best mate!</span></p>
