Well, I was going to say hola, but you're not in Spain. How do you say hello in Cypriot? I don't know.

2:07I was just trying to think that.

2:09Georgia Dayton: I was just thinking that. I really don't know. In fact, I haven't actually come across anyone who is speaking Greek. Um, so I'm not sure. I don't know. So hold on, because I said, how do you say hello in Cypriot? But that's not right either. So they speak Greek. I don't know. Well, there's a Greek side of Cyprus. This is going well. And there's a Turkish side of Cyprus. And I'm on the Greek side of Cyprus. Okay. So I don't actually really know. Um, we are here for my cousin's wedding and it's really lovely, actually. It's really nice. I've been to Cyprus before but never this arm How gorgeous You look very holiday-y And you know like If you're not seeing the clip You're just listening to this Georgia is in like a pink wafty dress With her hair half up Looking very tanned and gorgeous But you haven't got your mic So if this does sound slightly different today That is because Georgia's mic is broken So apologies, stick with us We're doing it on the go guys Because it's still in the middle of summer holidays and we're trying to make it happen.

3:17We're trying to make it work.

3:18Georgia Dayton: We are. And we thought it'd be a good opportunity to have a little catch-up before we're officially back and answer any questions that have come up over the summer and just have like a general chit-chat. But how are you, Zoe? Yeah, I'm all right. Yeah, nothing to report really, my end. Just ploughing on since I got back from Ibiza, straight back into breakfast, which has been amazing. And just trying to hang on to the holiday vibes. You know, when you have such a beautiful family holiday and then you come back and you can be a bit negative Nancy. So I'm just like trying to keep everyone together, trying to get through the loads of washing, get through the kind of work day.

3:54But you know what? It's back to school next week. And I think the kids are ready.

3:58Georgia Dayton: Yeah. Yeah. No, I agree with you. Although this feels like it's gone really fast for us because we have been away for a lot of holidays, which we never really are away for this much of it. And I'm kind of a bit like, I don't know, I don't really want these ones to end. Normally I'm like there for it, but this time I just don't, I don't know. I think anyone listening to this who's got younger children, the thought of having six, you know, six to nine, ten weeks off with them feels horrific. But I think once they pass that stage of needing you to do everything, it's actually like nice to be out of the routine and nice to be with them.

4:38Georgia Dayton: And it's, yeah, it's actually quite sad when they go back to school. do you know what we had Izzy Judd on the show this morning she's obviously been on the podcast before but she was on Hot Breakfast and she was saying how utterly devastated she is that the kids are going back to school because she's loved the fact that they've got feral and that they've been running around in their pants and that they've been kind of like just doing their own thing and not not worrying about that sort of treadmill that you have to get on when the kids start back to school again with school runs and remembering all the admin and making sure you've got the PE kits and the water bottles and it's like she was like I don't want it to end and I'm in her pump yeah same and just the constant like rushing them all the time i've really noticed actually with axel like how much more like chill he is um not having like times to be places and you know look all of that kind of thing um so yeah it is yeah i don't really want it to end no well listen we're gonna do um we're gonna do what we can to keep the whatever camp you're sitting in we're gonna do what we can to keep you company today by answering exactly we thought we would do We've been in both camps.

5:39Exactly. We've been in both camps. We understand both camps. So we're going to crack on with these questions because we've had loads in. George, do you want to kick us off?

5:46Georgia Dayton: Yeah, I'm going to start off with this one because it's a bit of a different one for us, actually. What mindset to have when not included, i.e. left out of drinks, etc. with old school friends? Oh, my God. This is such an interesting conversation. Now, I very much, talking of camps, have sat in both camps on this subject, where I've actually in the past been quite upset about it and it's impacted me to the point where I've actually called friends out and said you know I actually felt quite upset that wasn't included in that and it backfired and it didn't go the way that I thought it was going to go and actually I think that was for the positive because I then had to take a look at my own neediness and not I think sometimes I can get this major FOMO where I feel like I have to be part of everything and it's actually less about them and more about me so off the back of that I then very much took a look at my needs and um I think sometimes they are um a little bit what's the word I think it's too much to expect that from friends constantly so I had to look at filling that hole personally which I've now done and now if I don't get included or I'm not invited for a weekend or whatever it looks like I'm like okay well that's absolutely fine I'm doing my own thing I've got you know my husband and my kids and we're having a lovely weekend so it doesn't actually matter so I think you need to think about whether this is a one-off or whether you feel that you're being purposefully um miss what's the word yeah like like excluded excluded yeah it's because when this question came in this is really weird because I've been reading that Mel Robbins let them um yeah because I listened to her on a podcast and I feel like a lot of how I sort of rationalize things is very similar to what she was saying but since becoming a parent I feel I've lost some of that a bit and so I really wanted to read it again to almost like just reinstate like those feelings and she talks about a situation exactly this situation in her book and it was the trigger that made her sort of look at exactly what you say look at her life look at what it is and that whole thing of let them like if that's what they want to do let them and it's about not control like things you can't control like essentially it's happened like they you know you've been left out and you could sit and feel really hurt and all of that or you could decide what it is that you need to do like is it that you need to um like part ways with them because they don't make you feel good or or is it that maybe you might not have been putting as much effort into the friendship as you think you have and like there's so much there's so much to look at and I think that's kind of what you have to do with any situation like this is that oh like look at what can be done rather than what's happened because that has already happened and you you've you know you've felt her or however you felt but it's what you can do now and whether you want to have those people in your life and if you do then how do you build that relationship so that you are an integral part of the friendship group or you don't you walk away there is also something really empowering and by the way georgia i love that piece of advice um i think there's something really empowering about not letting other people's actions impact how you feel day to day and if you're an absolute emotional sponge like me you have the ability to be able to heal people make them feel better but also So off the back of that, you also pick up on energy that they feed towards you.

9:24And that can impact you and can make you have a shit day, actually. So I think, yeah, I think this is quite a big one to unpick. But essentially, I think let them, like you said, George, and then figure out what you can do off the back of it. And that's probably the best piece of advice that we can give you. Yeah. This is from Chelsea. I love this one. Wedding talk. What did you love most about your special days? Any do's or don'ts? Because this is massive wedding season now, isn't it?

9:47Georgia Dayton: It is. It is. In fact, I'm in Cyprus for a wedding. and I I would still do exactly this the same this is a conversation we've been having with like the bride and groom is that I only invite people that you actually want to invite I think that is like the biggest do um because there's so like there's so much stuff and I think weddings have changed so much like pre like probably like 20 years ago you would have more of your parents friends there than you would your own which is wild like that doesn't happen anymore but I do think in some like families maybe there's still that pressure to invite people that you don't want and I think for me it's all about who's around you um and you know how you want it to be and I think that is what you have to keep in mind with any wedding isn't it's about what you want to do not what you think you should do not what you think is who you think you should invite not what you think you should you know it's that that so that is my biggest do yeah love that um my biggest do is spend the day checking in with your partner so just make sure that you don't miss that moment with the other person because hours can pass and then you realize that you haven't seen them like dojo and i think we saw each other twice in like six hours and we were just because we were just off with our friends and chatting to x y and z and you know i don't know sitting in the a man spa that we turned into space closing party chatting absolute rubbish so um I think just making sure that you find your person to just stand there and go this is our day how fucking amazing is it I don't miss that bit uh because I feel like that's the part that we didn't get quite right yeah it's hard that's hard isn't it to do that and it is good to have like a reminder to check in with each other and in terms of don'ts I think the only one thing for me is I I had like huge FOMO when we were off doing loads of pictures that really like we didn't need to do.

11:43Georgia Dayton: Like really, like how many photos do you need? Like and look back on, like you don't need loads. The candid ones are so much better than the like staged ones. The staged ones. Yeah. Yeah. Agreed. And then you're just missing out on all that mingling with your friends. I don't know. That's for me that was a bit that I would not do. Yeah. And also I would say about the food, don't spend fortunes. do we did sharing um sharing plates at the table and everyone was diving in and eating and everyone had a little bit of everything and maybe that's because we had an abetan wedding and it was really really hot but i think those those really formal sit down like three courses people just don't want that they want to be chatting and going from table to table and you know it's it's a big celebration of love so don't force people to sit down there for hours on end it gets a bit boring i think and and don't make the service too long no quick in and out quick in and out do the kissing and off you go.

12:36Georgia Dayton: Yeah, I totally agree. Totally, totally agree. God, I really hope that that's the way the wedding that I'm going to be on for is going to go. Can't wait to hear. I can all think about that as you're listening. Where should we go? What's been the best part of your summer and the low, keeping it balanced? Hmm. The best part of my summer was... Oh, that's difficult. Um, can I do a professional and personal? Of course. The highlight for me was DJing at Universe. I did it! You did. For six and a half hours. Oh, my act is there. In the bunker. That was an incredible career highlight. I don't think I'll ever get over it.

13:24And during it, I was so fucking anxious. And I was like, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God. Do I even know how to do it? that I didn't really enjoy many parts of it until there's a block of two hours in the middle where I was like on a massive high and me and Pips were kind of high-fiving and dancing but the rest of the time I was thinking have I got the right tunes is everything going to be okay does it sound great you know I was worrying about it so much it was days later that I got that rush of like I mean at seven o 'clock in the morning the next morning and I was sober as a judge and I just lay there my whole body was like shaking because I was so kind of stressed and anxious about it but um but now I'm looking back on it that was just absolutely fucking brilliant and then the the the purse as the personal um highlight was just spending so much quality time with the kids having that break away with them going to the local beaches you know sitting up for hours and playing uno you know 21s we played these amazing games together we play you know we watched movies we took them to little beach bars we had the best time with the kids we only went out twice in in two weeks the

14:25Georgia Dayton: rest of the time we were just with them so it was amazing yeah it was really great you um i'm trying to think so i think actually this is a bit like not a me thing to say but i think the high has been we went to disney and we were in a group of 17 and there were certain family dynamics going on and i think the high was definitely how james and i handled it as a team like such a high and i think Like it's weird because I'm in Cyprus now and he's not here and I don't like it. And normally I would have been ready to break away. No, no, no. He's not coming out till just before the wedding. Right. So I, yeah, I don't like it.

15:08Georgia Dayton: And normally I would be so ready to have like a break away from him. But I think because we really like, I don't know, got to, like we've been a real good team this summer. Probably the first summer, like since the, you know, since we've had the kids. So that's definitely my high. and then we need to share our lows don't we yeah my low is just and I think anyone who works for themselves this is a low because it's that not being able to keep on top of everything and feeling quite torn between like you know wanting like I've been getting up while we've been in Cyprus at like 6am which is 4am UK time and doing work until 10 just so I know when I go back next week I won't be like well done George yeah but that is it's just not a nice feeling and I think anyone who's yeah works for themselves will know that work doesn't go away and that's really hard in the summer yeah yeah um Milo is that I've come back with a potential stomach ulcer from stress and working too hard so my health isn't great but actually do you know what we've got a plan and I think it's about slowing down.

16:21Yeah. The doctor said to me yesterday, you have got to slow down. I'm having an endoscopy, so I'll keep you guys posted. But yeah, potentially it's not great news and it's quite painful. But actually, I do think it's a bit of a warning sign that I can't keep going at this pace. So highs and lows, ups and downs. But that's what being a parent and being a working parent is about, isn't it? It happens.

16:45Georgia Dayton: Yeah, of course. And even if you're not a working parent, you're going to get it. Yeah. Well, an adult, like that's what happens, isn't it? But it might be like the best thing that could have happened. You know, sometimes these things are like a little bit of a kick up the bum. Like I sent James something yesterday, and I'm trying to find it now, that said like what you do like to your body, basically, between the ages of 36 and 46. Yeah, it was. New research says that how we live during the 10 years from age 36 to 46 may have the biggest influence on our health later in life. What you do in this window shapes the healthier experience in decades to come.

17:26Georgia Dayton: And that was all I needed to read. And James was like, right, let's do this. Like, let's be serious now. Let's stop being silly. That's fascinating because that's exactly, so I haven't had any caffeine for five, six days now. No booze for 10 days. I'm like cleaning, I've obviously cleaned up my diet because I have to, because I'm on that brat diet now, which is banana, rice, stewed apple and toast, which is all I can eat because of the ulcer. So it's like, yeah, it's going to be clear up and serious focus on wellness. Yeah, I think we can do it together, which I think will be. We still have fun though.

18:04Georgia Dayton: We can still have fun. We'll just have fun in a different way, shall we? Maybe? I don't know. No? I mean, it's all about balance, isn't it? Let me get well first, then we'll talk about balance. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We'll be right back after this short break.

18:24Georgia Dayton: Hannah, I just Venmo'd you for dinner. Obsessed. I'm spending it right now on the lip gloss that's been sitting in my cart. What do you mean spending it right now?

I'm Ellie Taylor and this is Back Your Body, the podcast from Holland and Barrett that's all about the most loyal relationship you'll ever have. The one you have with your body. From scars to self-care, the bits you love and the bits you've learned to love, we're talking to people about the bodies they live in, how they've pushed them, neglected them, rebuilt them, or finally learned to listen to them. It's time to back your body the way it's always back to you.

19:40Back your body. Subscribe now. Your body will thank you.

19:46Welcome back to this episode of Made by Mamas. Now, where were we? How do you juggle multiple kids? Mine are 6, 4 and 17, and I'm constantly overstimulated.

19:59Georgia Dayton: This is hard. I even feel torn like between the two kids and mine haven't got a huge age gap like three years it's big enough but like yesterday I've got like one crying because the other one has hurt the other one and then that one's crying because they're upset they're in trouble and I look like both ways and I'm like I don't know what to do here don't do this to me what's like I don't to do here i totally get it trying to cater for all different needs is difficult but i think it goes back to that thing doesn't it of giving each child even just 20 minutes of like solid time each day is enough yeah yeah and i think lower your expectations the 2025 parenting world has gone absolutely bonkers they're supposed to be entertained from morning till night at soft soft plays farm parks theme parks you know bloody cinema trips it's it's impossible yeah we don't have the manpower or the finances or actually the desire to do it so I think give yourself a break you're raising three children and actually if they're all just kind of being a bit feral and running around and kind of you know looking for a grain of white rice in a bag of brown for a couple of hours that's fine you know I think when we put the pressure on ourselves to constantly be making it all look perfect in inverted commas that's when we can start feeling like we're failing um just keep doing what you're doing you're smashing it yeah a hundred percent okay where should we go um how to work with the school job juggle when not being able to afford afford all the wraparound oh god I mean first thing I'd say is after school clubs if you can do it they do at um the kids school the little two they do breakfast club and then you can put them into one or two clubs afterwards or you can try and get them into we have something called a gap club um and they can take them from the classrooms that seems like the thing that people do if you don't have the wraparound care mine do clubs virtually every single day anyway so I just bung them in and that gives either me or taylor because we've obviously we've got our lovely nanny who's incredible she helps out so much to till sort of like 4 30 um so that's what we do george yeah i think it's quite difficult isn't it because obviously wraparound care is expensive like there's no getting away from it but i do think it might not be as expensive as you might assume it to be um and i think there are options that you could look into that might be more cost effective like even speaking to other parents at school who are in the same situation who might want to share the wraparound care or like a child minder who you know works at that school if you haven't got a an after-school club like our after-school club is actually so well priced I think it starts at five pounds um a session which anyone who's got kids in nursery knows that that is like a really good price um but also I think if you know wraparound care is not an auction at all then you can look for jobs that are within school hours or negotiate at like split hours so you work from school drop-off to school pickup and then you have a couple of hours when you you know they get home or you pick up and then you do more in in the um evening or you could like suggest doing a condensed work week so rather than doing you know five full days you do it in four or three or whatever I think people and employers are open to making something work if you can be like direct with them about what you want and how it'll work um and also just talk to other people because I think sometimes you you think god actually I hadn't thought of that I hadn't thought of you know I hadn't thought of doing that that actually does make a lot of sense so I would I'd talk to you know people around you um they might you know there's there's always sort of side hustles as well that other people might be doing that might inspire you um I definitely if if you really you know you want to be working then I think there are loads of options I was just going to say putting up um putting put someone told me about putting up like a little advert in your local post office or your library because there'll be somebody who's at retirement age as well who wants to pick up some extra cash yeah like we had our lovely nanny corin who was like you know desperate to earn some more money and you know it wasn't nanny prices so actually i think there are certain people who want to help you and like georgia said also sharing the load with other parents who are in similar boats so even if it's one of you takes you know three kids on the monday the next person the next parent takes three kids on the tuesday and you split it like that there are it's juggle and it's really stressful and yeah palpitations and anxiety i get it but i think like georgia said i think there's some good options georgia please give a review of the aphrodite hills hotel in cyprus i'm actually not in the aphrodite hills hotel we are we've rented a villa on the resort so i don't know i mean a lot of people have messaged me like oh my god let me know how it is and i feel like it's difficult to say how it is because i haven't actually been into the hotel we're literally in a villa in on the resort which is perfect for us because we've got our own space we go and eat out with we have you know what we've eaten in the resort a few times and it's been really really good um and I think yeah just in general I would really recommend this as a holiday destination and it is so much cheaper than other places that are like this I mean we go to Portugal a lot and it's similar to some of like the golf resorts in Portugal yeah a fraction of the price like genuinely like the villa that we have got in the height of August it's got three bedrooms got an infinity pool it's perfect it is like I might be a quarter less less than a quarter of the price than if we're in Portugal so I definitely would I definitely would look into it there's paddle courts there's tennis courts there's a football camp there's I mean there's all sorts going on and it's I've seen a lot of people with our age children and above like even teenagers here so I think it's probably well catered and they can have their freedom like if Axel had a friend here who was the same age as him I'd let them go off to a paddle on their own or I think yeah which I think on holiday is lovely so that is my I mean I've only been here like five days and I'm sure I'll do a proper roundup but that's a little snapshot i would definitely recommend it um and it's well priced yeah love that that's someone saying nothing to us just that you're both fab and make me laugh out loud that's nice thanks so much people were lovingly are you in team georgia or team zoe camp with the crying oh my god it actually made me feel so much better when people were like oh yeah i don't cry as well because i genuinely oh hang on a minute what percentage when i saw that oh no no no i know that it's way skewed I'm sure people cry more than they do but I genuinely thought I would be like no one would say they don't cry I even my producer on hot breakfast today who's a guy who's a guy who's 21 was like I'm team Georgia and I said sorry what he just came out with it I said where did you see it said it pinged up on my Instagram and I said you're a 21 year old male he goes yeah but I don't cry you know never I said well you need to get tap into your emotional side jay yeah but it's so funny how there are other people who are like yeah like i i don't and i feel like there's something wrong with me but i do think on the whole most people would cry a lot i think that is more normal i love it when i said well even with the bathroom door shut do you know what i did cry i did cry on the flight on the way all the way back from florida watching a film and I was going to take a picture and then I had a look at myself like what the hell are you doing oh I can't remember oh this is key information I know but it wasn't like a new one it was just like one of the random ones that are on there um yeah I really can't remember what it was and I can't even remember what happened in it so that is really rubbish but I did cry so there we go well done George we're proud of you we'll be right back after this short break

29:58Welcome back to this episode of Made by Mamas. Now, where were we? Let's go to five essential things I need as a first-time mum for baby. 32 weeks and so underprepared. That's from Ellie.

30:14It's hard, isn't it? Well, I think first, let's talk about the doona.

30:21Georgia Dayton: Yes, yes. Do you know what? If you think of five essentials, And I think, listen, everyone has different views on different things. I know some people don't like the doona, but this is from our personal experience of five things you'd buy again. If you're pregnant right now, right, you've got nothing, you've got no stuff, what would you buy? Right. Okay. The first thing I'd buy is a next to me crib. Yes. I absolutely loved that feeling of feeding baby and then just rolling over and popping Luna or Kit back in the next to me crib. so I'd definitely get one of those. I thought they were incredible.

30:56I really loved, I got this thing for Luna. I'll link it, but essentially it's like, I popped Luna in it and it was like a sort of - Swing. Swing, yeah, like a little swing thing that she could sit and listen to music and it had all these sort of dangly sort of sensory things over her. We use that all the time. I would buy a baby carrier. Yes. Like one that goes over your, what are they called?

31:22Georgia Dayton: like a baby bjorn carrier like a baby bjorn yeah arty pop ones are gorgeous the arty pop ones are gorgeous yeah but you can buy them on vintage now so you could just buy one on vintage exactly and i would also what else would we buy i'd buy tommy tippy perfect prep machine oh yeah not sucker 100 yeah i would buy the tommy tippy perfect prep machine i think 100 It doesn't. Game changer if you're going to formula feed at all, like especially in the night. I ended up with one upstairs and one downstairs because I bought a secondhand one, which was just amazing. You're genius, you. And maybe I probably wouldn't go big on a pram.

32:07Georgia Dayton: It depends where you live. No. But they're only in that, like, what is it called, a carry cot pram thing, but maximum six months. and then they change and they go into a different one so I would really look at where you live if you live in a city like those baby zen yo-yo ones are amazing and you can have them until they're like five years old like you I just really don't unless you live in the countryside or you know somewhere where you really need like those big wheels and the big lot of storage and all that stuff which you know some people do um I really wouldn't go massive on it let's be honest here georgia spending a fortune on a pram is like is like the the the men with the teeny weeny penises and their porsches and by the way it does has a porsche so you know i'm just like it's true though you know it's just it's just a big wank fest it's like what are you doing you're just showing off with your with your pram like i get it because i did it and i felt like an idiot because i was like why have i spent all this money on this brand yeah i did and i think isn't an itch a lot of people will still want to scratch and I totally get it but I would say like look on you know especially like you know bugaboos they are amazing right they are they're such a good buggy but because they're so good people will be selling them second hand and they'll be as good as new so yeah I just be clever with the pram I think that's what it is I think you could probably still get an all singing all dancing pram if that's what you really want and need but you don't have to spend that insane amount of money there you go um swimwear recommendations please for my 13 year old daughter for school swimming bonus if period proof oh okay interesting um okay so we've obviously just been through this with isla with swimming costumes for school because she's a big swimmer um i think that nike nike nike they do amazing ones i don't know um yeah yeah she has to have a navy blue a sporty one yeah you've got to go for a sporty one so any of the like you know the nikes the alidas all that kind of stuff they do yeah speedo they do i mean it's kind of it's a bit of a no-brainer read but she's got a nike one and it's brilliant yeah and then in terms of period proof i think the period knicker brands um wuka and that moddy body i'm sure they do swimwear and i'm sure one of them and i can't remember which one it was i saw some like teen marketing um for swimwear so that might be worth having a little look at um yeah if so yeah there's i mean there's loads of options but yeah stick to the standard brands that we know um and then let's just go for a last one from lucy need some new makeup recommendations for quick school run makeup looks please do you know what i just bought a new product and it was on the recommendation of sarah jossel um and it is by terry i'll come in exactly by terry it is a CC serum and by Terry is expensive right it is but it's skincare makeup so all of the makeup has a skincare benefit to it so the serum like it's not quite a foundation but it's a great base for like every day you know like a bit it would replace the Hollywood filter Charlotte Tilbury that sort of thing but you can just wear it on its own it is really really nice We'll link that.
