Podcast appearances and mentions of anna whitehouse

Irish actor Caitríona Balfe was nominated for a Bafta for her performance in Kenneth Branagh's film Belfast and is also known to many as Claire in time travel drama series Outlander. Caitríona joins Nuala McGovern in the studio to discuss her latest role in new film The Amateur, playing a Russian spy alongside Rami Malek. There has been a "significant increase" in the number of female swimmers having indecent images taken of them in changing rooms whilst competing in the elite level of the sport, according to a leaked report. The Times newspaper has seen a report by the sport's governing body Swim England which states that pictures have been taken using camera phones over or under cubicles. Nuala is joined by BBC Sport correspondent Laura Scott and Mhairi Maclennan, CEO of Kyniska Advocacy, which supports women and victims of abuse in sport. The latest figures on child maintenance show there is currently £690m unpaid, leaving thousands of children without the financial support they are entitled to. Critics argue that the Child Maintenance Service (CMS) is failing to use its legal powers, while the Government says enforcement measures are improving. As an inquiry by the cross-party House of Lords Public Services committee calls for evidence, we look at how unpaid child maintenance can be used as a form of economic abuse. Nuala hears from Sam Smethers, Chair of the charity Surviving Economic Abuse, and a survivor whose ex-partner used the system to control her.A new exhibition called Curious Cures at Cambridge University Library explores medicine in the medieval era. Dozens of unique medical manuscripts, recipes, cures and guides to healthy living from the 14th and 15th centuries are on display. To discuss women's role in medieval medicine, Nuala is joined by the exhibition's curator and medieval manuscripts specialist, Dr James Freeman.Grammy award-winning singer Chappell Roan has been causing a stir with some comments she made about motherhood on the podcast Call Her Daddy. The 27-year-old singer said her friends her age who have kids "are in hell", adding "I actually don't know anyone who's happy and has children at this age." So is motherhood worth it - or is Chappell Roan right? Anna Whitehouse, also known as Mother Pukka, is a campaigner and mum of five. She joins us to discuss. Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Sarah Jane Griffiths

We're getting intimate with Polly Hazlewood from the ‘Dirty Mother Pukka' podcast which she co-presents with Anna Whitehouse - bringing Feminism with a side - helping of filth.  Rachel talks to Polly about her experiences as a mother to twins with a rare genetic condition, as well as exploring her knowledge and experience as a somatic sexologist (don't worry we explain it all!) It's all about connecting with yourself, to enable you to better connect with others, and have more intimate and positive relationships. Sarah and Lucy also cover the perils of not being able to polish a turd, and on a related theme, all the places you can find poo (quite a few if you are raising a puppy and a toddler at the same time.)

It's an extra special episode where we meet the newest member of the Dirty Mother Pukka family as Polly chats to Anna for the first time since baby Lola arrives and maternity leave begins.

As the pair hit the West-End in their first Live Nation show, Anna and Polly talk sex ed, pleasure and why it's time to stop centering the peen. Oh and how platonic love has to be up there with romantic amour. Til death, indeed…

From struggling to ‘celebrate' until the baby first cries to birth anxiety in the third trimester, Polly sits in the pregnancy hole with Anna as they navigate baby showers and splash down.

Polly and Anna dig deep on their lack of z's. From an average two hours on Polly's side to pregnancy insomnia on Anna's, the pair find solutions to their snoozing issues. And open up about the intense expectations put on mothers in the newborn haze.

It's been a rollercoaster of a loving ride but an incredibly happy one with Anna and Olly announcing their pregnancy. With four kids between them already this is a fifth happy member of the clan. Anna stares down the barrel of being a truly ‘geriatric' mother and how she feels navigating pregnancy third time round. But the main point is… we're having a baby! A DMP baby.

Quite the episode. We interrupt usual service of interviewing incredible women for a DMP special on Anna's engagement to Olly. From love post-divorce to looking back at one of the toughest junctures of her life, this is maybe not the Disney happily ever after but it is, indeed, very happy.

For this live recording of the podcast, which took place at the London Edition hotel, Emma sits down with broadcaster, writer and campaigner, Anna Whitehouse, otherwise known as Mother Pukka. Anna is the Sunday Times best-selling author of Parenting the Sh*t out of Life, Where's My Happy Ending? and Underbelly and in 2015 she started the platform Mother Pukka to share the trials and tribulations of parenthood and beyond. She also hosts the podcast Dirty Mother Pukka with her best friend Polly. In this episode, Anna speaks candidly about finding love again after her recent divorce; the extraordinary and ordinary experience of motherhood ('both things can be true at once'); the success of her campaign to change the law on Flexible working; her greatest lesson in love and, of course, and how to give the 'perfect' handjob.... *Apologies in advance for the sound quality in this episode, there were tech issues on the night that were beyond our control.

This is a little more personal than usual but so much has been said about divorce and the other side of it is, perhaps, a very different happy ending.

This episode is a heart-on-sleeve download of the ups, downs, peaks and troughs of finding love after irretrievable breakdown. Bring tissues.

2023 has been huge for Anna Whitehouse, also known as Mother Pukka. She's been fighting for flexible working rights for eight years and last week it was announced that her bill will become law in 2024. Her Heart FM radio show is going from strength to strength with over 11 million listeners. She's also written a pair of books about childcare and flexible working called Divide and Conquer - and the person with whom she wrote these books is her soon-to-be ex-husband. And they are plotting a loving divorce. It can't be easy writing, working, being an activist whilst also negotiating the dying embers of a marriage. So many plates spinning. We talk about why hers isn't the traditional happy ending, but there is happiness, there is Hinge and there is the realisation that what she has really been fighting for is choice.

"We need to be transparent about the hours we work - for example putting those hours in your email signature -  because sharing those boundaries is important." *****Host Bio:Rebecca Allen is a Career Success Coach for ambitious women looking to land dream career opportunities.

If you are a working parent and haven't heard of Anna Whitehouse (aka Mother Pukka) you must have been living under a rock. Anna is an author, editor, podcast host and founder of Flex Appeal campaign fighting for flexible working for all. I knew I had to talk to Anna on the show, as lack of flexible working is one of the top reasons women leave the workforce and do not rise through the ranks (something I care about very very much). To be clear her campaign is for everyone, not just women. We talk about how having kids is not a choice, miscarrying at your desk, closing the gender pay gap, the archaic dinosaurs that won't see the light of day about flexible working, and what you can do to help. Anna is so passionate, she had me in tears at the end, as she talked about her own mother. It triggered me, as how my mother was treated had a massive impact on my approach to work especially about being financially independent. I hope this podcast gives you hope that there are people in your corner fighting to make a change, and that you can make a change too. ------------------------------- WE DISCUSS ------------------------------- 02:06 - How did the idea for FlexAppeal come about? 09:36 - Why do companies insist on not offering flexibility? 15:08 - What made the biggest impact on your campaign? 18:44 - Who are the progressive companies doing this well? 26:54 - What can retailers learn from NHS job sharing? 32:28 - Flexibility is not perfect - it's a relationship 37:32 - What's the biggest barrier to women getting ahead in the workplace? 49:50 - Generational trauma 01:00:41 - What can we do to support Flex Appeal? ----------------------------------------- ANNA WHITEHOUSE ----------------------------------------- LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/anna-whitehouse-586623a4/ Website: https://www.motherpukka.co.uk/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mother_pukka/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/mother_pukka ------------------------------- FOLLOW ME ON ------------------------------- LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mariahvo/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@anatomyofaleader Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mariahvo/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/mhvorostovsky HVO Search: https://www.hvosearch.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Need help HIRING - head over to - http://www.hirewithmaria.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LEAVE A REVIEW: If you're listening on Apple Podcasts make sure to Follow, Rate, and leave a REVIEW.

Campaigner, broadcaster and influencer Anna Whitehouse, aka MotherPukka, joins Andrea Thompson, the editor in chief of Marie Claire UK, on this first episode of Avon's Power in Ageing Podcast Series. Anna, now 41, speaks candidly about how changing careers led her to where she is now. After training as a barrister, she realised there weren't any women of child-bearing years at the top of the legal system.
