Founded by Meseret Warner, Ignite Investment has taken on the ambitious task of enabling equity crowdfunding in Ethiopia, a country where capital markets had been almost non-existent until recently. In today's episode, Meseret shared how her platform is connecting Ethiopia's burgeoning entrepreneurs with the African diaspora to overcome geographic and financial barriers.“Ethiopia never had capital markets in the country,” Meseret explained. “But now we have a new proclamation in 2021... and equity investment crowdfunding is one of them.” This regulatory breakthrough has allowed Ignite Investment to operate in Ethiopia under a sandbox model, enabling the platform to test innovative financial systems while adhering to local laws.What makes Ignite Investment's approach unique is its focus on the African diaspora. Every year, billions of dollars flow from the diaspora back to the African continent, primarily as remittances. Meseret has created a mechanism to transform these funds into equity investments that support Ethiopian entrepreneurs. “Our target market is the African diaspora that sends billions and billions of dollars… as remittances and even investment,” she said.One of Ignite's recent successes is a rideshare company addressing the transportation challenges in Addis Ababa. This venture, which connects commuters with a network of minibus drivers through an Uber-like system, has nearly closed its fundraising round thanks to Ignite's platform. Meseret revealed, “They could have been oversubscribed because there are a lot more people interested to see them.”This is no small feat. Meseret's persistence has helped Ignite Investment craft partnerships with organizations like Zemen Bank and the African Development Bank, facilitating cross-border investments and providing vital financial infrastructure. Her team's partnership with GIZ, the German development agency, also helps local companies become more attractive to investors by improving transparency and governance.Ignite Investment is more than just a crowdfunding platform; it is a bridge between Ethiopia's untapped innovation and the global capital it needs to thrive. Meseret's vision extends beyond her home country, with plans to expand into other African nations.For investors in the diaspora and beyond, Ignite Investment offers an unprecedented opportunity to support impactful businesses while earning financial returns. Meseret's work is a testament to the power of persistence, innovation, and a belief in the potential of African entrepreneurs.tl;dr:Ethiopia's regulatory progress enabled Ignite Investment to launch equity crowdfunding under a sandbox model.Meseret Warner connects diaspora wealth with Ethiopian entrepreneurs, fostering impactful investments across borders.Ignite's partnerships with Zemen Bank, GIZ, and the African Development Bank strengthen its financial infrastructure.A rideshare company solving Addis Ababa's transportation issues exemplifies Ignite's successful ventures.Meseret's persistence has been key to overcoming challenges and scaling Ignite Investment's mission to other African nations.How to Develop Persistence As a SuperpowerMeseret defines her superpower as persistence, a trait she's relied on during her 11-year journey to build Ignite Investment. She shared that overcoming regulatory hurdles and scaling an innovative platform in Ethiopia required unwavering determination. “Every year, I tell my husband, next year is my year… and then, of course, it doesn't happen. But I always see the light at the end of the tunnel,” she said. Persistence, combined with resourcefulness and partnerships, has been key to her success.Meseret recounted how her persistence helped her navigate Ethiopia's regulatory bottlenecks to establish equity crowdfunding. Ethiopia lacked a formal capital market, but Meseret engaged with regulators, participated in public consultations, and leveraged partnerships to secure a spot in the regulatory sandbox. After six years of groundwork, Ignite Investment is now operational, connecting diaspora investors with local entrepreneurs.Tips for Developing Persistence:Focus on the Big Picture: Identify a solution you believe in and let it guide your actions.Celebrate Small Wins: Acknowledge progress, even if it's incremental, to maintain motivation.Step Back Strategically: When facing challenges, reassess your approach and look for alternative solutions.Leverage Partnerships: Collaborate with individuals and organizations to solve specific challenges.Stay Resourceful: Continuously tap into your network to find answers and support.By following Meseret's example and advice, you can make persistence a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

With 97% of farm income concentrated in just 3% of farms, the remaining 97% struggle to make ends meet, often forcing the next generation to leave farming altogether. Mark Smith, CEO and Co-Founder of Carbon Country, is working to reverse this trend with a groundbreaking vision that combines renewable energy, sustainable farming practices, and economic innovation.Mark's approach centers on agrivoltaics, a system of integrating solar panels with farming. “The idea behind Carbon Country is to transform the economics and sustainability of smallholder farms by adding agrovoltaics, which is a fancy word for solar above farming,” Mark explained. By installing solar panels over grazing land and using regenerative practices like rotational sheep grazing, Carbon Country creates a dual-purpose solution that enhances both energy production and soil health.The potential doesn't stop there. Mark is pioneering carbon removal practices, including biochar production and “wood vaulting,” a process developed by a University of Maryland professor. “We're building the first large-scale biochar facility in Maryland,” Mark said. These initiatives not only sequester carbon but also improve soil quality, making farms more productive and sustainable.To further amplify the economic viability, Mark has integrated energy storage and Bitcoin mining into the model. “We're putting battery storage and Bitcoin mining together, creating an ecosystem with our panels,” he said. By arbitraging peak and non-peak power prices, Carbon Country maximizes revenue while helping stabilize the energy grid.Currently, Carbon Country is raising capital through a regulation crowdfunding campaign on Vicinity Capital. This innovative platform connects investors with high-impact projects, providing opportunities to support sustainable solutions like Mark's.Mark's work is more than a business—it's a mission to ensure smallholder farms remain productive for future generations. “Our goal is to make these farms legacy assets,” he said, “doing important things for both the economy and the environment.”If you want to learn more or invest in this inspiring initiative, visit Carbon Country's crowdfunding page and join the movement to reshape agriculture and energy for a better future.tl;dr:Mark Smith shares how agrivoltaics can transform smallholder farms by combining solar panels with farming.Carbon Country integrates biochar production and carbon storage to improve soil health and sequester carbon.Renewable energy, Bitcoin mining, and storage create economic opportunities for struggling smallholder farmers.Mark explains his superpower of rapid learning and offers advice for mastering new fields.This episode highlights Carbon Country's crowdfunding campaign to support sustainable farming and energy solutions.How to Develop Rapid Learning As a SuperpowerMark Smith's superpower is his ability to quickly master new fields of knowledge. “I think my superpower really is being able to get to near expert level on practically anything very quickly,” he said. This remarkable skill has allowed him to tackle challenges in diverse areas such as recycling, water filtration, and now agrivoltaics. Mark credits his success to curiosity, humility, and a willingness to dedicate time to learning and experimentation.Illustrative Story:Mark shared an example of how his rapid learning ability transformed an idea into reality. Initially exploring abandoned mining sites for solar projects, he discovered that ranches were a better fit. By asking questions about land use and grazing practices, he realized he could integrate rotational grazing and biochar production with solar installations. Through research and conversations with experts, he developed a model that improves soil health, sequesters carbon, and generates renewable energy—all while supporting smallholder farmers.Tips for Developing This Superpower:Be Curious: Read extensively and watch content to understand the basics of new fields.Seek Advice: Approach experts with humility and ask thoughtful questions.Experiment: Start small and learn by doing, even if it means making mistakes.Stay Open: Embrace being a beginner and remain receptive to unexpected insights.By following Mark's example and advice, you can make rapid learning a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

In today's episode, Chad Rosen, Founder and CEO of Victory Hemp Foods, shared how his company is revolutionizing agriculture and nutrition while supporting farmers and sustainable practices.Chad started Victory Hemp Foods in 2014, inspired by the legalization of industrial hemp and its potential to solve critical problems in the food industry. “Farmers needed a manufacturer who could bring their products to market,” Chad explained. His company processes hemp seeds to create nutrient-dense ingredients like protein powder and oil that are used by global food brands in everything from protein bars to beverages.The secret to Victory Hemp Foods' success lies in its patented process. “We separate the oil and protein into two fractions,” Chad said. This innovation produces a clean, lightly flavored protein powder rich in essential amino acids and a heart-healthy oil with the ideal omega-6 to omega-3 ratio. By valorizing all parts of the hemp seed, including turning the hulls into sweeteners, Victory Hemp Foods creates a sustainable, profitable model that benefits farmers and consumers alike.Hemp's environmental benefits are equally compelling. It promotes biodiversity, breaks pest and weed cycles, and can grow with less water compared to many other crops. Chad emphasized its potential: “Hemp can be a 20-million-acre crop,” he said, noting its ability to transform both farming and food production.Victory Hemp Foods is scaling its operations to meet growing demand. The company is currently raising capital through a regulated crowdfunding campaign on WeFunder, allowing community members to invest in its mission. “This is a vote of confidence,” Chad said, encouraging supporters to back regenerative agriculture and healthy food systems.Hemp is more than a niche ingredient; it's a key to a healthier, more sustainable future. Victory Hemp Foods is leading the way—and you can be part of it.tl;dr:Chad Rosen shared how Victory Hemp Foods creates sustainable, nutrient-dense products from North American hemp.The company's patented process transforms hemp seeds into protein powder, oil, and sweeteners.Hemp farming supports biodiversity, reduces environmental impact, and offers economic opportunities for farmers.Victory Hemp Foods is raising capital on WeFunder, inviting community investment in its mission.Chad emphasized his superpower, grit, as the key to overcoming challenges and driving innovation.How to Develop Grit As a SuperpowerChad identified his superpower as grit—the ability to persevere through challenges without giving up. “The ability to look at a letdown and turn it around…keeps you grinding,” he explained. Over more than a decade, Chad's persistence has allowed him to overcome obstacles, adapt to setbacks, and lead Victory Hemp Foods to success. He emphasized that grit is essential for entrepreneurs navigating uncertain paths.Illustrative Story:Three years ago, Chad faced a major setback when a potential investor backed out after six months of due diligence, citing concerns about the company's technology. This left Victory Hemp Foods without funding or a clear path forward. Instead of giving up, Chad and his team reimagined their process, developing a more efficient and profitable solution. The unexpected challenge forced them to create a breakthrough that became the foundation of their current success.Tips for Developing Grit:View setbacks as opportunities to learn and grow.Believe that every disappointment is a blessing in disguise.Stay focused on solving problems instead of dwelling on challenges.Surround yourself with a team of talented, supportive individuals.By following Chad's example and advice, you can make grit a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileChad Rosen (he/him):Founder & CEO, Victory Hemp FoodsAbout Victory Hemp Foods: At Victory Hemp Foods, we cold press North Americas freshest hemp hearts into nutritionally dense protein and oil. Our ingredients are in use by the worlds top food brands that are making anything from nutrition bars to protein rich beverages for their customers who read the ingredient label, the nutritional panel, and ask questions about how ingredients are sourced.Website: victoryhempfoods.comInstagram Handle: @victoryhempfoodsOther URL: wefunder.com/victory.hemp.foods/joinBiographical Information: Since 2014, Chad has led the growth of Victory Hemp Foods as founder and CEO. Prior to founding Victory Hemp, Chad was VP of Vetrazzo recycled glass surfaces, an eventual division of Polycor North America. He was the recent past president of the Kentucky Hemp Industries Association (KYHIA) and board member of the Organic Association of Kentucky (OAK). He received his bachelor's degree in Business Administration from Marquette University and completed additional business coursework at the University of New Mexico's Anderson College of Business as well as the University of New Castle (Australia). A graduate of the Village Capital Agricultural Accelerator his network in the food system is far reaching at high levels in the private and public sectors. The White House invited Chad to represent Kentucky and Victory Hemp Foods at the Global Entrepreneurship Summit in Palo Alto, where he met with POTUS's Entrepreneurial Ambassadors and 700 other entrepreneurs from 170 countries to work on solving for some of the world most pressing issues here at home and abroad, including food security. He's dedicated to bringing hemp into the rural economy where sustainable economic development is a priority.LinkedIn Profile: linkedin.com/in/chadwrosenSupport Our SponsorsOur generous sponsors make our work possible, serving impact investors, social entrepreneurs, community builders and diverse founders.

Briar Rose Penney, the steward and CEO of Inner Space KC, exemplifies this philosophy. During today's episode, Briar Rose shared how their unique yoga studio and community space blends wellness, creativity, and collaboration in a way that has not only grown their business but strengthened the bonds between diverse groups in Kansas City.Inner Space KC operates as more than a yoga studio. It's a thriving ecosystem where martial arts, dance, qigong, and tai chi classes meet creativity and collaboration. “We have 12 commercial tenants that rent with us,” Briar Rose explained. “Their rent directly subsidizes our programming and stabilizes our finances. But also, we all kind of would only be here because of each other.” This symbiotic relationship allows the space to host everything from art markets to activism events, creating a vibrant hub where personal care and creativity intersect.One key to this success is Briar Rose's emphasis on building community through intentional care. Volunteers, or “caretakers,” play a vital role in maintaining the space's welcoming atmosphere. “Touch everything—even if it's something that no one is going to notice,” Briar Rose said, underscoring the importance of attention to detail. “The feeling of it being connected with and touched and attended to does translate. People can feel that when they walk in the space.” This meticulous care has contributed to Inner Space KC's remarkable 30% revenue growth over the past year.Briar Rose's approach also underscores the importance of staying true to the values that make a business unique. After a period of trial and error, they found that leaning into their studio's distinct offerings—rather than imitating others—created the consistency and growth they needed. “We had to come back to what was already working and let that show us, ‘Oh, this is how we grow.'”Inner Space KC is currently raising capital through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on Honeycomb Credit, marking their second successful foray into alternative funding. Briar Rose emphasized how this approach has opened doors where traditional financing fell short. “Banks really just don't see you,” they said. “The Honeycomb thing was a really cool expansion of my horizon. There are alternative sources of capital out there—you just have to open up to them and look.”By blending business with community-building and creativity, Briar Rose is helping redefine what success can look like. Inner Space KC is proof that fostering connection and care can lead to both financial growth and meaningful impact.tl;dr:Inner Space KC blends yoga, martial arts, and creativity to foster community and collaboration in Kansas City.Briar Rose Penney embraces volunteers as a cornerstone of Inner Space KC's welcoming, thriving environment.Adaptability and a willingness to pivot have been key to the studio's 30% revenue growth.Alternative crowdfunding has enabled Briar Rose to bypass traditional financing and expand Inner Space KC.By building a business rooted in care, Briar Rose proves that community and profit can coexist.How to Develop Adaptability As a SuperpowerBriar's superpower is adaptability—the ability to pivot, learn, and grow through challenges. They describe this skill as a willingness to “try things and recognize that not everything you try is going to work,” adding, “You really just have to be willing to pivot without drama or ego or blame.” Briar Rose's openness to experimentation and their capacity to let go of rigid ideas have allowed them to navigate the complexities of running Inner Space KC with grace and resilience.Illustrative Story:Briar Rose shared how they initially focused on growing memberships and increasing foot traffic at Inner Space KC, believing this was the key to success. However, the strategy didn't yield consistent results. Instead of doubling down, Briar Rose reflected on what the business truly needed. They realized their community valued the studio's unique, niche offerings rather than uniform programming. By leaning into these strengths, they saw class attendance and memberships grow organically, highlighting the power of adaptability in business.Tips for Developing Adaptability:Embrace Experimentation: Be open to trying new approaches, even if you're unsure of the outcome.Learn from Failure: View setbacks as opportunities for growth rather than reasons for discouragement.Seek Feedback: Surround yourself with peers and mentors who can offer constructive criticism and guidance.Stay Curious: Cultivate a mindset of curiosity to continuously explore new possibilities.Let Go of Ego: Avoid attaching yourself to rigid plans or ideas; be willing to pivot as needed.By following Briar's example and advice, you can make adaptability a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

I spoke with Linzi Bell — adventurer, speaker, and mental health advocate — just days after she completed the Camino Via Francigena: 1,512 miles in just 66 days.Fresh off the trail, our conversation became a moment of deep reflection on the healing power of nature, the emotional honesty that long-distance walking invites, and the kind of growth that only arrives when you give yourself space to feel it all.And what a journey it's been.Not only has she walked across Europe — she also became the @fastestknowntime to solo thru-hike the entire coastline of Great Britain.That's more than 6,000 miles, or the equivalent of 234 marathons in 298 days!Linzi's story isn't just about miles (though she's walked thousands).It's about resilience, joy, and letting the outdoors meet you exactly where you are.And her mission? To help people smile through the beautiful benefits of the great outdoors.

On this week's Thursday Thoughts, Lucy and I are talking about a concept promoted by Dan Harris: Action Absorbs Anxiety.This is the idea that taking even the smallest of actions can help to reduce feelings of powerlessness and helplessness, by channelling that restless, stuck energy and shifting it onto something more productive.Polly and I also talk about another similar idea, which is that clarity comes from taking action - something that both of us have found to be true.We hope you'll find something of value in here.Love,Polly & Lucy x Join The SEPTEMBER Nervous System REWIRE Download The Breath Check-Up - your FREE guide to understanding how well you're breathing right now.

This week on Thursday Thoughts, Lucy and I are chatting about the filters we use to live our lives.Is your filter clouding your judgement? Is it colouring everything grey, making things seem worse than they really are? And how long are you willing to sit in that negativity?The thing is, when you change the lens through which you see the world, you get to choose one that lifts you, lightens you, and lets you see possibility instead of limitation.We explore some of the common filters we've had and how to shift them.We hope you find something useful in here.Love Polly & Lucy xx Join The SEPTEMBER Nervous System REWIRE Download The Breath Check-Up - your FREE guide to understanding how well you're breathing right now.

On today's Thursday Thoughts, Lucy & I are talking about people pleasing.We all do it - particularly women - but is it actually serving us? The need to belong and be liked often sees us doing or saying things that aren't in alignment with who we truly are.When we put the needs of others above our own, we often end up feeling resentful and depleted, which is no good for anyone!In this conversation, Lucy and I give examples of how we've both been people pleasers in the past, but how we're now much more discerning about what we say yes to and - importantly - what we say no to.We hope you'll find something useful in here.Love,Polly & Lucy xDownload The Breath Check-Up - your FREE guide to understanding how well you're breathing right now.

This week on MENOMORPHOSIS, I'm joined by the wonderful Pia Mailhot-Leichter — author of Welcome to the Creative Club: Make Life Your Biggest Art Project. Pia is a writer, speaker, creative guide, and an all-round permission-giver when it comes to designing a life that feels aligned, courageous, and meaningful.We talk about what it really means to live creatively—not just in art or writing, but in how you move through the world, how you connect with others, and how you honour the quiet whisper of your intuition.Pia's view of creativity is radically inclusive: it's not about being “good” at something—it's about paying attention, being brave, and allowing life to be playful and expressive again.If you've ever felt stuck in a role, a routine, or a version of yourself that no longer fits, this episode is your permission slip to begin again—and start crafting a life that feels deeply, colourfully yours.✨ In this episode, we explore:Why creativity is for everyone—not just artists or writersHow to stop performing and start expressing from your true selfThe power of curiosity, courage, and everyday rituals in unlocking creative flowHow to navigate fear, resistance, and the inner critic with compassionWhat it means to be the creator of your life (and how to begin)Whether you think of yourself as creative or not, this conversation will shift how you see your own story, your choices, and the way you show up in the world.For more on Pia and to get her book go to:  https://kollektiv.studio/Download The Breath Check-Up - your FREE guide to understanding how well you're breathing right now.

On this week's Thursday Thoughts, Lucy and I are talking about NSDR - Non Sleep Deep Rest.Similar to meditation or breathwork, NSDR can help take us out of our monkey minds and bring us back into our bodies. It helps take us out of our sympathetic nervous system, and into our parasympathetic nervous system - our ‘rest and digest' state.So many of us are in a state of stress and anxiety far more than we should be, and a short NSDR practice can make a huge difference.I have three different NSDR recordings available on my website which you can access by clicking on this link https://www.pollywarren.com/offers/TDoFGvUjWe hope this conversation was helpful!Love,Polly & Lucy xDownload The Breath Check-Up - your FREE guide to understanding how well you're breathing right now.

✦ If you're looking for your next much-needed laugh, Atlanta comedian Joel Byars has plenty of them ready for you at his "Funny Fridays" comedy showcase. The next event in the series is scheduled for August 22 at the Sandy Springs Performing Arts Center and will feature performances by Lace Larrabee, Carlos Rodriguez, and Emily Holden. Byars recently joined WABE arts reporter Summer Evans to talk more about why he's committed to making our Fridays funny. ✦ Last May, when the pizzeria-arcade chain Chuck E. Cheese announced plans to retire its famous animatronic bands, the backlash was swift. After hearing this outcry, the company promised to keep a few of the bands across the nation. You may be surprised to hear that there was an outcry over Animatronics, but the art form, which brings mechanical and electronic figures to life, continues to hold the public's attention. In fact, the University of North Carolina School of the Arts offers a graduate concentration in Animatronics. It's true. If you're a fan of life-like, magical, moving figures with Dead Eyes (Jon's words, not mine), you don't have to travel far to get your fix. City Lights Collective member Wesley Boutilier brings us the story of a Six Flags Over Georgia ride that recently underwent a significant animatronic upgrade. ✦ Local artist Carl Janes knows that making art isn't a solo effort—it's as much about community as it is about creativity. Over the years, he has helped carve out spaces for Atlanta's local music and arts communities to gather, perform, and thrive—including his former East Atlanta home, The Secret Spot, and more recently, his location in Underground, called Inner Space. For his latest endeavor, he has teamed up with local brewery Halfway Crooks to curate a diverse Summer Sunday Concert series, which will run throughout August. City Lights Collective producer Josh Thane recently sat down with Janes learn why he's bringing his Inner Space outdoors. ✦ City Lights Collective member Shane Harrison spends his days at Arts ATL looking for cultural events to share with readers, and he joins us weekly to share highlights. Today, his mix includes Black Writers Weekend 2025, and True Colors Theatre Company's adaptation of Jordan E. Cooper's Ain’t No Mo’. ✦ Artist and music enthusiast, Kosmo Vinyl. He spent several decades immersed in music and began his professional career at London's pioneering indie label, "Stiff Records." In 1979, Kosmo started working exclusively with "The Clash" and stayed by their side until the punk icons disbanded in 1986. Over the years, Kosmo's record collection became legendary. In 2014, he began posting about his favorite releases on social media as part of his series, "Kosmo's Vinyl of the Week," and he joins us weekly to share the stories behind the records he treasures. Today, Kosmo discusses the story behind Ann Peebles’ “I Can’t Stand the Rain.” ✦ The game of Pinball has seen a resurgence in popularity over the last decade, and for those who love the game, August 1 is considered National Pinball Day. City Lights Collective co-host Kim Drobes brings us the story behind the celebration.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on Menomorphosis, I'm joined by hypnotherapist Rebecca Donoghue for a powerful, honest conversation about one of the most emotionally charged topics right now: weight loss jabs — and the stories our bodies carry through midlife.This isn't about shame, and it's definitely not about blame. It's about awareness. Because the truth is — we don't reach for food or quick fixes because we're weak.  We reach for them because a part of us is trying to feel safe, and most of us were never taught how to meet that need without self-abandoning in the process.In this episode, we explore:✨Why weight loss jabs might treat a symptom - but never rewire emotional eatingThe key question to ask if you keep repeating the same food and self-care patternsHow to untangle your identity from your appearance, without losing your ambitionThe deeper emotional and energetic drivers behind the urge to control your bodyWhat actually helps change stick — and why your ‘why' matters more than any toolWhether you've tried the jab, judged the jab, or feel stuck between extremes — this episode brings nuance, clarity, and compassion to a topic most people oversimplify.To download Rebecca's FREE guide 'It's not your fault' go to https://linktr.ee/iamrebeccadonoghueOr https://www.instagram.com/iamrebeccadonoghue/ Download The Breath Check-Up - your FREE guide to understanding how well you're breathing right now.

On this week's Thursday's Thoughts, Lucy and I are talking all things holidays.I've just come back from a wonderful two-week break in Turkey — and yes, it was wonderful.But we're also diving into something a little deeper… What does it mean if the only time you feel truly relaxed, calm or happy is when you're away?Holidays are a beautiful reset, a chance to switch off, change the scenery, and reconnect, but the real magic? It lies in creating a life you don't constantly need a break from. Because ultimately, aren't we all just searching for more calm, joy, and lightness in our everyday lives?So the question becomes: how can we bring more of that holiday feeling home with us?We hope you find something helpful in here.Love Polly & Lucy xxDownload The Breath Check-Up - your FREE guide to understanding how well you're breathing right now.

In this episode, I'm joined by the brilliant Dr. Susie Rockwell — GP, menopause specialist, and founder of The Women's Hormone Clinic. With nearly 40 years of NHS experience and a decade dedicated to hormone health, Dr. Rockwell brings clarity, compassion, and deep clinical wisdom to a topic that so many women still feel dismissed or confused about.I put a call out to my community to ask what they really wanted to know about menopause—and Dr Susie does a fantastic job answering your questions. From HRT to hormones, libido to brain fog, we cover the topics that matter most, without the fluff or fear-mongering.If you've been feeling confused or unsure about what's happening in your body, this conversation will leave you feeling more informed, more empowered, and a lot less alone.

On today's Thursday Thoughts, Lucy and I are talking about self-worth — the importance of which cannot be overstated.As Jamie Kern Lima says in her book, Worthy, our self-worth is our ceiling; in other words we will only ever get as far in life as we believe we're worthy of getting.Unlike self-confidence, self-worth truly is an inside job, and not something we can get from anything outside of ourselves, i.e. a job promotion, a relationship, or a medal. The truth is that we are all inherently worthy, so it's just a question of unlearning all of the subconscious beliefs that have taught us we're not. Lucy & I talk about our own feelings of self-worth, as well as discussing some practical ways that we can increase our own sense of worthiness.We really hope you'll find something helpful in here.Love, Polly & Lucy xDownload The Breath Check-Up - your FREE guide to understanding how well you're breathing right now.

It's back-to-back podcast coups as David and Ryan are joined by legendary director Joe Dante as well as a host of technical problems for poor Dave. But the content is so good, you'll never know! The guys chat with fellow (to Ryan) New Jersey native Joe about his storied career, their favorite Dante films, and Joe's own life as a movie-mad cinema-goer and collector of films. Then he tells them the absolutely insane story of how he became the custodian of /the/ Rosebud from freaking CITIZEN KANE for over 40 years and why he has decided to pass it on to the next generation of collectors.

This week, I'm sharing a special episode from the MENOMORPHOSIS archives—one that's very close to my heart. This was actually the first ever interview I recorded for the podcast, back in May 2022, and it's just as relevant and inspiring today.In this episode, I chat with the brilliant Lou Featherstone, also known as @luinland over on Instagram. Lou is bold, funny, and fiercely real. She shares her midlife journey—from giving up shopping and moving countries, to embracing her voice, her body, and her purpose.We talk about confidence, community, creativity, and why midlife can be a time of powerful change—if you let it.Whether you're hearing it for the first time or listening again, I hope it leaves you feeling uplifted and reminded that this chapter of life is full of potential.If you don't already, go give Lou a follow over on instagram https://www.instagram.com/luinluland/To watch Lou's TED talk go to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMBHlD7zEL8Download The Breath Check-Up - your FREE guide to understanding how well you're breathing right now.

Lt. Tuck Pendelton (Dennis Quaid) is a problem. Usually, he's a drunk and an asshole and when his girlfriend, Lydia (Meg Ryan) leaves him over his behavior, he signs on for a top secret mission that shrinks him down to be injected into a rabbit for clinical trials. This experiment draws the attention of rival scientists Dr. Canker (Fiona Lewis) and terrorist, Scrimshaw (Kevin McCarthy) who hatch a plot to destroy the small lab and steal the tech to sell to the highest bidder. After a hostile takeover, Tuck is injected into unsuspecting hypocondriac, Jack (Martin Short) and he's dragged into danger and intrigue in order to deliver Tuck back to the regular sized world before Mr. Igoe (Vernon Wells) gets to him. Get shot into a man in Innerspace, this week on Doom Generation.

This week on Thursday Thoughts, Lucy and I dive into a juicy conversation all about her brand new book Shiny Happy Singles — or Thrive Solo if you're tuning in from the US.We chat about the inspiration behind the book, what it really means to thrive on your own, and why this message is so needed.We also pull back the curtain on the creative process: the messy magic of writing, showing up consistently (even when it's hard), and trusting that clarity comes after you begin — not before.  No waiting for the perfect moment or a lightning bolt of inspiration… just honest, step-by-step progress.If you've got a book inside you, a creative project on your heart, or a voice that's been whispering “start”… this one's for you.With love,Polly & Lucy xxDownload The Breath Check-Up - your FREE guide to understanding how well you're breathing right now.

Midlife doesn't have to be a crisis — it can be a genuine metamorphosis.In this episode, I'm not talking about just surviving menopause.I'm talking about moving through it with more ease, clarity, and actual calm.You'll hear a segment from a training I recently ran, where I shared seven essential habits that helped me feel more like myself again — and can do the same for you.They're rooted in science, backed by real results, and designed to work with your body, not against it.This isn't about overhauling your life overnight.It's about understanding your body's new language — and responding with choices that actually support it.Here's what we cover:➡️ The one habit that helped me stop spiralling and reclaim a sense of control➡️ How just 10 minutes a day can improve your sleep and steady your nervous system➡️ What the science really says about food, muscle, and mood in perimenopause➡️ The conversation around HRT and breast cancer risk — without fear or fluff➡️ Why reconnection (with others and yourself) is non-negotiable at this time✨ Whether you're deep in the menopause transition or just beginning to notice changes, this episode is here to remind you:You're not alone. And you're not powerless.Small shifts. Big difference.You've got this.Download The Breath Check-Up - your FREE guide to understanding how well you're breathing right now.
