Welcome to the jungle
When youve grown up thinking your twenties are all about working hard, playing hard and trying not to get pregnant, life comes at you fast when you go from hump to bump.
So you thought adulthood would mean a high-flying career and a luxury lifestyle, but instead have ended up with a Lycra-based wardrobe and a deep fear of what lies at the bottom of the ball-pit in soft play
Join comedian Sophie McCartney as she voyages deep into the uncharted territories of mating, birthing, feral offspring, mums overdoing it at the watering hole, and the perilous vipers nest of the school WhatsApp group.
With laugh out loud humour and eye-watering honesty, Sophie shows how whether youve had a day full of whining or a night full of wine, theres joy to be had in the perfectly imperfect wild ride into parenthood.
Reassuring, relatable and laugh-out-loud funny I loved it!
Sarah Turner, The Unmumsy Mum
Brilliant! Painfully accurate and criminally funny.Like a chat with your most outrageous friend.
