My Name Is (not) Mum.

Kaitiaki Productions

Aotearoa/ New Zealand

Forget the clichés; we share the hilariously honest truths of motherhood. By exploring the unfiltered highs and lows—from laundry monsters to genuine reflection—our stories reveal how this relatable experience truly changes you. Join these outstanding women as they share what this role means to them.

Sarah O'Connell, Lysanne van Zessen, Beccy Myers and Breigh O'Malley join Debbie Brooks in this debut collaboration of motherhood, music and mayhem.

It's a little chaotic, very raw and thoughtful as we discuss topics about motherhood that we didn't expect to experience. From IVF with pop rock music, mundane household chores, the loneliness epidemic without a village and perimenopausal life with a toddler – there's something for everyone.

How we define ourselves as mothers is more than this name – we each navigate this journey differently and yet struggle with the same thing – to be more than just this title at this stage in our lives.
