Bringing women the power to know who they want to be and giving them the tools to get there. We know how you feel, because we’ve been there! Real talk between real women.
Gill Perkins, aka jamjargill talks to us about how she got her online persona, why her 'take no shit' policy nips trolling in the bud, how she has found the perfect way to combine her passions AND make a living, how finding her tribe has continued her education, how simply stopping to think can be the biggest gamechanger in the war against waste and what she does as a mum of twins to create pockets of self care.

APOLOGIES FOR THE SOUND QUALITY OF THIS RECORDING WHICH WAS BEYOND OUR CONTROL - PLEASE BEAR WITH US WHILE WE RECTIFY THE SITUATION FOR FUTURE RECORDINGS - WE HOPE IT DESN'T IMPACT ON YOUR ENJOYMENT OF THIS EPISODE! The Big O, climaxing, orgasming, cumming... call it what you will, the subject is either not talked about enough or too many women still feel awkward having a conversation about it, even in 2021. While pictorial representations of the male equivalent can be seen drawn on dirty white vans, etched on toilet walls and on the underside of school desks, with no visual evidence of the female orgasm, it's always been a much harder subject to explore, elusive to some and mysterious to elicit by many of the other sex. Serena and Jo here talk openly about the topic and explore the literal and figurative ins and outs of La Petite Mort. Ordinary mums, Serena and Jo, talk honestly and authentically from their own experience, about how they try and look after themselves and sometimes get it wrong. Want to get in touch?

Have you ever stopped to think about how many different roles we play in a lifetime? Pupil, student, sibling, child, girlfriend, wife, expert, mentor, waitress, shop assistant, teacher, friend... the list is extraordinary! And each and every role demands something different and often new of us - like the learning game children play in nurseries, "Silly Soup", every role we play throws something new into our life, a new skill, an experience, a range of feelings, and much more - is it any wonder we can reach a stage of our lives where it can all feel a bit much, and yet another change of role can feel overwhelming and sometimes, a little daunting.

In 2021 is there still a stigma to dating someone half your age? Are women judged more harshly for being a 'cougar' while men are celebrated for dating a much younger partner? What is the 'appropriate' age gap in a relationship - where is the cut-off, who decides - is there an 'age-police' and why is it okay to tell someone they shouldn't be seeing someone younger when it's no longer acceptable to discriminate against someone in the workplace due to their age?

So is it any wonder our homes are not always (if ever) as clean and tidy as in our grandmother's day?

We can be the bad-arsedest (made-up word!) ball breaking, top earning business owner, smashing it in EVERY area of our lives but somehow it can still really knock us for six when we find out someone doesn't like us - or at least it can have that effect on some people!

In this chunky and indepth episode we meet mum of three and founder of the Undivided Consultancy, Sarah Maslen, as she talks openly and frankly about marrying a man, as a bisexual woman who believed she might have been gay, and how, after having three children she went on to fall in love with a woman... who now identifies and presents as a man.

How is it we never grow out of wanting to be told a story? We tend to think of stories as being just for children but if we go way back, back before iphones and the internet, back before the advent of rail and television, before the era of flight and telephone communication, and we find ourselves in a world when telling a story to one another was our everything - our communication, our entertainment and our education. There is so much to be learned from others through the stories they tell us. The power of the voice and the written word carry untold weight and it's a an art we are once again remembering to value.

Let's face it we are ALL getting older - but how do we honestly feel about it? Resistance is futile, although botox can help, and the alternative doesn't offer any real prospects does it?

Can finally liking ourselves and not giving two fucks what the rest of the world thinks really balance out dodgy joints and middle-age spread?
