Mums, It’s Time to ‘Fess Up!
Join Our New eBook Project: Motherhood Unfiltered – The Confession Files
At Mum’s Lounge, we’ve built an incredible, supportive community of Aussie mums who show up for each other — with honesty, humour, and heart.
Now, we’re creating something special just for you — an ebook called Motherhood Unfiltered, filled with confession-style stories from real mums. The hilarious fails, the emotional wins, the late-night breakdowns, and the moments that make it all worth it.
We’re calling on YOU to share your story — funny, raw, inspiring or totally unhinged — as part of this community-powered project.
What we’re looking for:
- Real, first-person stories — written like you’re telling a friend over coffee (or wine).
- Stories can be funny, messy, emotional, heartwarming, or just deeply relatable
- Think: a moment of chaos, a tiny win, a parenting fail, or a truth you’ve never said out loud
- Your story doesn’t need to be perfectly written — just real and honest!
Because when one mum shares her truth, it makes the rest of us feel a little more seen.
Word count: 300 to 800 words is the sweet spot — short enough to read in one go, but long enough to say something real. (Max: 1,000 words)
Privacy options: You can choose to be:
- Anonymous
- Credited with your name, photo, and a link (to your blog, business or socials)
Payment: This is an unpaid, community-driven project, created to celebrate the real stories of motherhood and connect our amazing Mum’s Lounge audience.
How to submit: Send your story to Emma at [email protected]. with ‘MOTHERHOOD UNFILTERED’ as the subject heading.
Submissions close: 30th September 2025.
