I'm quoted in The Times today after our panel session at #FiLiA2025. My brother's response when I shared in a family whatsapp group was "I would imagine that you said a bit more than that". Yes I did, considerably more. When men are in the room, there are significant numbers of women who won't be.

It's National Poetry Day. This is one that really spoke to me when I first read it in Musings on Mothering 13 years ago. It still does, and my babies are now fabulous young women.

Just finished reading Milli Hill's Ultra-Processed Women. Everyone should read this book; it is such an eye opener. It's quite scary, but also full of sensible practical things that feel achievable and that will make a genuine difference.

Marian Tompson is a phenomenal woman. She is in her 90s and still fighting for what is right. I treasure this gift that she had made and sent to me (by a talented friend of hers) late last year. It's on magnetic paper and lives on my fridge. 🥰
