Introducing The Edinburgh Society of Unapologetically Imperfect Mothers
Tired of the same old, earnest, host-and-guest format in podcasts aimed at mothers? Founders Alisa Dutch and Heather Duque certainly were. Frustrated by what they found to be "boring" topics and predictable setups in women-centric media, these two real-life friends decided to launch something radically different: The Edinburgh Society of Unapologetically Imperfect Mothers Podcast.
Born from genuine friendship, this show is a weekly gathering where the hosts, along with their circle of mum friends including Rebecca, Anke, Kim, and Tammy, dive into the chaos of "Motherland" with hilarious honesty. The primary goal is simple: to spread joy and celebrate female friendship in all its messy glory. Listening feels less like an interview and more like pulling up a chair with your funniest mates over a well-deserved cuppa or a glass of fizz.
Topics covered vary significantly, moving seamlessly from crucial discussions, like navigating adult friendships, to more unconventional subjects. The hosts provide candid commentary on domestic dynamics, such as "choreplay" versus flirtatious texting with your partner, alongside lively debates over "comfy granny pants" and indulging in guilty pleasure media, including romance books, "brain candy," and television like Married at First Sight. This breadth ensures that no area of modern motherhood, from the profound to the perfectly silly, is off-limits.
Their authentic, no-filter approach is resonating. The podcast was recently honoured by Feedspot, which ranked them the #2 Mom Podcast in the UK! While most of their dedicated following is UK-based, their universal humour has attracted a growing global audience. If you need a weekly reminder that it’s okay to be imperfect and a huge laugh while you’re at it, this is the podcast for you.
