Female-ing

Today's show is a deep dive into all the different stages of womanhood. I am joined by the amazing midwife and women's advocate, Sarah Denning. Sarah and I talk through it all, emptying the dishwasher, farting, body image and how to be your own best friend. Sarah, like myself, has worked closely with women for many years and she shares with us her wants for us all and the realties that we all manage every day. This show is a gentle, elegant listen, much like Sarah herself.

Yep! My favourite subject in the world. Authenticity!! I am joined by Master coach Ronnie Clifford. Ronnie is my coach and mentor and has been one of the most instrumental and influential women in my life.

This week we delve deep into the word "sorry" What is your relationship with the word itself? Do you only use it when you mean it? or does it come flying out your mouth when it doesn't really need to? My guest (Lissy Puig) and I explore how we overuse it and why we say it without even thinking. What are we really apologising for?

Influencer, Life Coach and Body Confidence Activist, Victoria Spence is on today's show . Victoria shares her story of how she went from a chronic eating disorder and low self esteem - body confidence activist and huge inspiration to thousands of women.

Wow, this episode is a real beauty. I am joined by the incredible coach Jessica Scott. Jessica and I delve deep into how women cope, what pressure we put on ourselves, where and why we people please and what effect all this has over our self esteem.

As we hit week 6 of lockdown, all our resources are wearing a bit thin, so what better to explore this week, than "resilience", what it is, why it's important and how the hell to have some!! I am joined by resilience expert Danny Simmonds who is hilarious and candid in her approach. Danny gives us some unforgettable analogy's to take away and (if that wasn't enough) I admit to some very personal, VERY relatable thought processes, which were totally unhelpful and the absolute opposite of resilient! Thank goodness Danny came on the show today to sort my head out as I'm not sure my family could take much more of me :)

I don't know about you but while we've been in lockdown, my "should/shouldn't'' voice has been very active!
