Journalist Emma Barnett is a regular presenter of Newsnight and
has recently become the main presenter of Woman's Hour on BBC Radio 4.
She's good at asking questions and bringing people to account but says
she's had to learn patience because as a mum, 'losing your shit' gets
you nowhere! Emma struggled to get pregnant, which after two and half
years she realised was because of endometriosis. She had her baby
through IVF but she says she will always have one foot in the camp of
those who would like to be mothers but have not managed it. We talked
about childcare, we talked about periods a lot, and if you stay listening till
the end you will hear us sharing our most embarrassing stories with each other.
