About this episode
This is the two-part episode I'd argue every mum and dad needs to listen to. In Part 1 today, I speak to Steph Borowski, and next week, you'll hear my chat with her husband Josh- the first man to be on Motherland. Steph met her husband in L.A, fresh out of school, they were both young actors chasing a dream. Fast forward a few years, and they settled on Josh's family farm in North West NSW, where life got pretty tricky once they had children. Josh, like so many farmers, was working around the clock, rarely home for that dinner/bathtime routine, and emotionally unavailable in so many ways. Steph felt what many of us have felt at some point as mothers... alone, frustrated, and at times, unsupported by our partner. There was a moment where Steph snapped, and it changed everything, from her marriage to her mental heath. In this very honest and raw discussion, Steph, opens up about what happened when she realised she needed help, and what happened when she asked her husband to step up. This is her story.
