‘They Twisted My Words… And I Took the Backlash’ Georgia Jones & Kelsey Parker on Online Judgement & Media Headlines

This week on Mum’s The Word, Georgia Jones and Kelsey Parker are back reflecting on the Mother’s Day special… but the conversation quickly turns into something much deeper. Georgia shares what it was really like having her mum on the podcast, from expecting juicy childhood stories to getting a surprisingly reserved version instead, and why seeing your parents in a new light as an adult can be both funny and emotional. Meanwhile, Kelsey opens up about the realities of being judged online, after facing backlash for something as simple as getting her dog professionally trained… and why people seem to have an opinion on everything. The pair dive into the darker side of social media and the press, as Kelsey shares her frustration over misleading headlines that completely twisted her words about grief, and the emotional toll that comes with having your life picked apart publicly. They also talk honestly about loss, strength, and what it really takes to keep going when life throws the unimaginable at you, as well as why showing the “real life” behind the highlight reel matters more than ever. Plus, things lighten up with stories of kids’ first crushes, awkward parenting moments, and the unexpected milestones that make you realise just how quickly they’re growing up. Expect honesty, a few rants, plenty of laughs, and a reminder that no one’s life is as perfect as it looks online. Grab a cuppa, get comfy, and join Georgia and Kelsey for another episode of Mum’s The Word. A Create Podcast Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
