Simon Taylor & Lucy on comedy, parenting chaos, relationships & finding your village

What happens when two creatives become parents and realise nothing quite goes to plan?

This week on Parenthood, comedian Simon Taylor and his wife Lucy join me for a hilarious and honest conversation about raising two young kids, navigating relationship changes and juggling careers with family life.

From toddler negotiations and sleep deprivation to managing the mental load, finding your village and keeping your own dreams alive, Simon and Lucy share why communication, planning and a good sense of humour are essential to surviving the parenting chaos.

A funny, relatable conversation about embracing the messiness of family life.
