I spent my last day of maternity leave filming with the @BBC for a project on Orthosomnia. It was 100% out of my comfort zone, but I absolutely loved it. You can watch it here from about 15 mins. bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m0…
An industry PR (who's sent me 4 emails in 24hrs alone trying to get coverage for their clients) is trash-talking me on social media. What kind of strategy is that? Before you pay someone to get you quoted in the media, do check if they conduct themselves professionally first.

At the start of maternity leave I worked with the BBC for a piece on nostalgia so it felt very fitting to spend my last day of maternity leave filming a segment for BBC's Morning Live.
Today with a strong will and a soft heart, I'm back at work.

I've written 7 articles on maternity leave with the aim of making the world a kinder place for Teddy. linktr.ee/ruthbarrettpr
It's a privilege to have taken a year off and to have the time to write and that's a lot in part down to @JordanWBarrett and his unwavering support.
PSA women wearing less clothes in hot weather isn't an invitation to act like a cretin.
I'm too clumsy to be around fragile masculinity and will break your spirit.
Happy birthday @JordanWBarrett.
Thank you for everything you do for our family and for the joy you bring to us all.
I'll try and manifest a win for England tonight but I can't make any promises.

ALT A quote by Ruth Barrett on a cloudy background reads "Father's Day is both beautiful & complicated.
Thinking of those childfree by choice, childfree not by choice, navigating strained family relationships or no contact, in the care system or with parents & children no longer with us.
You are seen. You are enough. You are loved."
Celebrating my cousin and her fiancée becoming Mrs & Mrs Thomas was gorgeous. So glad Teddy got to watch his Guardians of Kindness declare their love for one another. 🩷
