"I'm in the taxi phase of parenting. I am 'Uber mum'," Karen Koster says. "You go from changing nappies and doing feeds and now I'm like, 'Who needs to be where? Who's got tennis? Where are we going for music?'. It is mental. The lifts are crazy."
Karen Koster stepped back from a busy broadcasting career to prioritize family life and spend more time with her children.
