About this listen
January 6th marks Nollaig na mBan — Women’s Christmas — a traditional Irish day that honours women’s unseen work and the need for rest after the intensity of Christmas.
In this short DAM Parenting episode, Eva shares why January was never meant to be about productivity, motivation, or “starting fresh” — especially for mothers carrying the mental load of family life.
This episode explores:
What Nollaig na mBan (Women’s Christmas) really is
Why winter is a season of pause, not pressure
The invisible labour women carry — especially at Christmas
A gentler way to enter the new year as a parent
Whether you’re an expat, immigrant parent, or raising children far from home, this episode is an invitation to slow down — without guilt.
Listen now for a moment of reflection, recognition, and rest.
