In this special episode, Kate and Mandy are honoured to speak to Helena, Pea mum to twin daughters Jaz and Sunshine. Beautiful Sunshine, nicknamed Sunny, passed away in late 2020. 

Helena shares the story of the girls’ premature birth while living in Chicago, USA and Sunny’s subsequent diagnosis of cerebral palsy and a hearing impairment. Helena left behind her dream job to move her family back home to Melbourne so that Sunny could benefit from the incredible education and care offered by the Cerebral Palsy Education Centre.

Helena talks about Sunny’s life, her deep love for her daughters, her faith, and her own transformation as a woman across her parenting journey.

A beautiful singer and songwriter, Helena shares her songs Sunny’s Song and Grateful in the episode. Helena is also a published author and Kate and Mandy are giving away 10 copies of her book Cup Of Courage (which also includes a bonus song) – keep an eye on their Instagram page for details on how to win!  

Keep in touch with Helena via her website and Facebook page.
