## Resource

Parental anxiety can appear in countless forms, from restless nights and racing thoughts to the constant feeling that you need to be one step ahead. Katie Thistleton and Guvna B look at why these feelings surface for so many parents and how they might shift over time. Former Traitors winner Leanne Quigley shares her experiences as a mum of twins, reflecting on the uncertainty of IVF, the shock of premature labour at 26 weeks and the intensity of raising two lively children after such a difficult start. Psychologist Dr Tara Quinn-Cirillo offers clear, practical guidance on what can sit beneath these emotional responses, how the mind interprets everyday challenges and what simple techniques can help parents steady themselves when things begin to feel overwhelming. Whether your moments of doubt come from disrupted sleep, big transitions, growing independence or the mental load of keeping family life moving, this conversation offers reassurance, expert perspective and useful ideas to help you feel more confident and supported in your parenting.
