Jenn is a long-distance walker, community leader, and passionate advocate for women's wellbeing in the outdoors — especially during menopause. From battling endometriosis, PCOS, and the trauma of an early medical menopause in her 20s, she was once told she couldn't live the active, adventurous life she craved. She's spent the last few years since proving otherwise — one footstep at a time. What began as a personal outlet for healing has evolved into something much bigger: being able to connect women to their strength through hiking, movement, and community. Whether she's leading local walks, multi-day hikes, backpacking or pushing her own limits, she walks with the intention that creating space for people to feel heard, safe and be around nature is of the upmost importance. A qualified lowland leader, speaker, and founder of a thriving women's walking community in Kent, she brings insight, humour, and unflinching honesty to conversations about menopause, mental health, leadership, and what it means to feel powerful in your body again — especially when the world told you not to try. Through her trail stories — from ultra hikes to quiet woodland days — she shows that adventure isn't about speed or summits. It's simply about showing up.

Sometimes, on occasions that are getting rarer and rarer, Instagram can be a place of great discoveries, and Becky Barnicoat was one of those for me. A cartoonist published by The New Yorker, Grazia, The New Statesman, The Guardian, BuzzFeed, New York Magazine, Private Eye and Netflix, she had recently published her deeply funny and touching graphic memoir “Cry When the Baby Cries”. For years, her observations of daily life and motherhood made me burst out laughing (often when I needed it the most). So join me as I finally get to laugh together with Becky! Hear her inspiring story about becoming a succesful cartoonist after years of hearing she wasn't good enough, and was dreaming of a job that didn't exist. And learn wise lessons from her and her mom Catherina about motherhood being a source the fulfilment, about creating a warm home through routine and light, about teaching our duaghters through our stories, and breaking generational cycles.

Joining us for this episode of Diverse Thinking Different Learning is Leslie Forde! ​​Leslie is the CEO and Founder of Mom's Hierarchy of Needs® and soon-to-be published Author of Repair with Self-Care: Your Guide to the Mom's Hierarchy of Needs. Her business provides evidence-based tools to help moms reclaim their time and well-being from the never-done-list while also helping employers retain working parents and caregivers. Since March of 2020, over 3,700 parents have participated in her research study (the longest-running of its kind) on the pandemic's ongoing impact on work, care, and wellness. With more than twenty years in senior leadership and a decade focused on media and technology in childcare, eldercare, mental health, and education, Leslie is a sought-after speaker and consultant. She advises organizations such as HubSpot, Merck, Scholastic, and the Barr Foundation on how to retain and support parents, caregivers, and people of color. Our conversation explores the growing crisis of parental stress and maternal mental health, which has been made so much worse by a perfect storm of factors such as the lasting impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, rising costs, shortages in healthcare and childcare resources, and the unique challenges faced by parents of neurodivergent children. Leslie shares some insights from her extensive research on the topic, explaining how parents, especially mothers, are struggling to balance the demands of caregiving, household management, and careers, often at the expense of their own well-being. The guilt, shame, and lack of flexibility in the workplace make it especially difficult for many parents to ask for the support that they desperately need. Leslie highlights the critical importance of parents, especially mothers, prioritizing self-care even in small ways to build resilience and model healthy behaviors for their children. She provides practical tips such as identifying a daily "anchor" activity and being mindful of decision fatigue to help parents carve out time for their own mental, physical, and emotional needs. Our conversation also goes into the direct connection between parents' mental health and their children's wellbeing, and how, by supporting parents, we can have a profound impact on the whole family. This conversation offers a powerful and timely exploration of the parental mental health crisis, with practical insights and solutions that can make a real difference for families!

At age 55, Belgian runner Hilde Dosogne set out to break boundaries — and did just that.  In 2024, she ran 366 marathons in 366 days, earning her the title of Guinness World Record holder for most consecutive marathons in a year.  What makes Hilde's journey so extraordinary is not just the distance she covered, but the relentless dedication she showed while working part-time and managing her daily life with laser-focused discipline. Known as Marathon Woman 366, Hilde didn't grow up in a sporty family. In fact, she didn't seriously take up running until her 40s. But once she did, she never looked back — moving from her first marathon with her husband in 2013 to ultra events like the Marathon des Sables and the legendary Spartathlon in Greece. Inspired by endurance runner Candice Burt, who ran an ultra a day, Hilde set a goal that was bold yet (just) manageable alongside her career — a marathon every single day for an entire year.  From battling injuries and illness, to running through Belgian storms and even dislocating a finger mid-run, Hilde's story is one of mental toughness, resilience, and unwavering self-belief. In this episode, Hilde shares: Why she decided to take on this incredible challenge How she structured her days and managed recovery The highs and lows of running every single day The mental strategies that helped her keep going Her thoughts on aging, performance, and redefining what's possible at 55 The deep sense of joy and freedom she finds in running Hilde's story is a reminder that it's never too late to start something extraordinary — and that the only limits are the ones we place on ourselves.  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM UK time. Subscribe and be inspired by stories of women pushing their physical and mental limits across adventure, endurance, and exploration.  Support the mission to increase the visibility of female role models in adventure and sport: www.patreon.com/toughgirlpodcast Show notes Who is Hilde Living in Belgium 55 years old Married with 4 children aged between 18 and 26 years old Working in a chemical company and being passionate about running Being known as Marathon Woman 366 Not growing up in a sporty family and not being encouraged to do sports when she was younger Getting into running after her children were growing up  Being focused on building up her career and raising her children  Reaching 40 years old and wanting to lose some weight and deciding to run a marathon with her husband in 2013 How her running progressed and wanting to run more marathons and then wanting to run faster and then further Getting a lot of satisfaction from achieving her goals and pushing her limits Deciding to run the coastline of Belgium - 74km Wanting to know what else she could do  Deciding to run the Marathon des Sables in Morocco  Struggling with sleep in the open tent, and dealing with the sandstorm and the noisy people in the tent Running Spartathlon Ultra Race  Running from Athens to Sparta - having 36 hrs to complete the race  Needing to qualify for the Spartathlon Running 170km in 24 hrs in 2022 Running the race again in 2023 and running 1 hr faster than the year before Being inspired by Candice Burt running an ultra marathon everyday  Realising that running an ultra marathon a day would take up too much time everyday Deciding to run a marathon everyday and break a world record  Feeling that running a marathon everyday would be achievable while working at the same time Starting to plan for the event in summer 2024 - wanting to run with other people  Applying to Guinness World Records and figuring out the logistics for evidence  The time commitment involved and trying to run with other people  Being commitment to the hours she was running  The hard days, especially when she was feeling sick  Dealing with stomach pain and covid.  Falling while running and dislocating her finger  Dealing with bad weather especially at the start of the year  Struggling with her sleep and feeling too excited from the running both physically and emotionally  Sleeping during her lunch break Needing to have her days very strictly scheduled  The time commitment of running, social media and the info for Guinness World Records The mindset of taking on a daily challenge like this Her resilience coming from having a strict childhood and being very disciplined Seeing her running as a job  Feeling gratitude for while she was running  Raising funds for breast cancer patients  Being supported by the people who ran with her and also supported via social media  Daily recovery strategies - having a recovery shake, baths, stretching and a massage 1x per week Being supported by her husband in the house  Getting to the end of 366 marathons Running the last week in pain, due to a hamstring injury  Preparing an event for the last day Her body was telling her to stop running  Stopping running on the 1st January 2025  Feeling very happy that it was over!

Even if you are at a low point in a race. You need to know that it can get better. Why the only reason to stop is if you have a serious injury. Believe that it can get better Think about how you will feel when you give up  Think about the people that support you and they will be very happy that you finish and disappointed if you don't Do it for a charity, so you know you are not only doing it for yourself.  You have to be strong psychically and mentally Prepare yourself for the difficult moments in the race and think through all the different scenarios that could happen   Social Media Website: www.hildedosogne.be/en  Instagram: @marathonwoman366/  Facebook: @marathonwoman.2024  Strava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/51029211

 With so much conflict and so many things that divide us, what can possibly connect us? It seems our nation is broken. How can we begin to have unity in such a fractured place? Our guests today have spent decades working toward the idea of hope, peace, and connection. Gary Malkin is a multiple Emmy award-winning composer, resonance strategist, and music and wellness activist; Hope Fitzgerald is a spiritual teacher, intuitive dowser, and healer; and Tezikiah Gabriel is the Executive Director of Pathways To Peace, a UN Peace Messenger Organization, in consultation with ECOSOC and DGC. Gary shares that his father was born in Ukraine. He explains how he was bullied as a child. Peace in the world cannot be created without having inner peace. Gary talks about his journey through grief and trauma and how we, as a society, tend to avoid these feelings of pain. He talks about how we need to metabolism our grief and unburden ourselves. He realized that we cannot have peace if we don't have unity. And we cannot have unity, if we don't address the thing that caused us grief. Hope Fitzgerald talks about the workshops they developed together to awaken people and move them through the grief process. He also works with Tezikiah Gabriel and together they founded “We Rise as One” which is a celebration of connection and compassion through the power of music. Gary explains how they decided on the title and how the intention is to rise above with unity and oneness. It's an inclusive, multi-generational, multi-religious, multi-cultural event as a way to feel our unity. They also talk about the power of forgiveness to offer unity, as well as how music and poetry can lead to peace. This is a way to transcend the toxic division we are experiencing at this time. This is another way to celebrate both the International Day and Week of Peace. They are hosting the We Rise As One – A Celebration of Connection, Compassion & Hope event on Saturday, Sept 27 at Grace Cathedral in San Francisco. This will be a powerful day of music, healing, and unity, live in San Francisco and globally streamed. This event is co-produced with Pathways to Peace (founders of the UN International Day of Peace) and Grace Cathedral. This is Part 2 of the interview.

giving the peaks a warm glow.Ca: El Monestir de Montserrat, majestuós i tranquil, estava envoltat de visitants que buscaven una pausa espiritual.En: The Monestir de Montserrat, majestic and peaceful, was surrounded by visitors seeking a spiritual break.Ca: Entre ells, es trobava l'Oriol, qui acabava d'arribar amb el cor pesat de records i emocions del seu últim trencament amorós.En: Among them was Oriol, who had just arrived with a heart heavy with memories and emotions from his recent breakup.Ca: Un aire fresc li bufava a la cara, com si la natura volgués consolar-lo.En: A fresh breeze blew on his face, as if nature wanted to comfort him.Ca: L'Oriol volia trobar la pau i la claredat que tant anhelava.En: Oriol wanted to find the peace and clarity he so longed for.Ca: Es va apuntar a un retir espiritual, esperant que l'entorn apartés les ombres del seu passat.En: He signed up for a spiritual retreat, hoping the surroundings would cast away the shadows of his past.Ca: Mentre passejava pels passadissos del monestir, es va topar amb una cara familiar: la Marina.En: As he walked through the monastery corridors, he bumped into a familiar face: Marina.Ca: Feia anys que no la veia.En: He hadn't seen her in years.Ca: Sempre recordava la seva energia i amor per la vida.En: He always remembered her energy and love for life.Ca: —Oriol!En: "Oriol!"Ca: —va exclamar la Marina, sorpresa però

que havia passat.En: He didn't know how to explain everything that had happened to him.Ca: Tot i així, van parlar una estona, compartint histories i riures.En: Nonetheless, they talked for a while, sharing stories and laughter.Ca: La Marina, sense saber què li turmentava, sentia una estranya connexió.En: Marina, unaware of what troubled him, felt a strange connection.Ca: Sempre havia trobat inspiració en Montserrat, i potser aquest cop la seva inspiració era estar allà per Oriol.En: She had always found inspiration in Montserrat, and perhaps this time her inspiration was to be there for Oriol.Ca: Els dies passaven i l'Oriol lluitava amb els seus sentiments.En: Days passed, and Oriol struggled with his feelings.Ca: Els records del passat li venien com onades, incontrolables i persistents.En: Memories of the past came to him like waves, uncontrollable and persistent.Ca: La Marina, amb paciència i amb el seu esperit lliure, proposava noves perspectives.En: Marina, with patience and her free spirit, proposed new perspectives.Ca: Això al principi incomodava a Oriol, qui encara estava ancorat en els seus temors.En: This initially made Oriol uncomfortable, as he was still anchored in his fears.Ca: Un vespre, durant una sessió de meditació, la llum del capvespre il·luminava el paisatge, pintant-lo de colors càlids.En: One evening, during a meditation session, the twilight light illuminated the landscape, painting it with warm colors.Ca: Tots dos es van trobar asseguts en silenci, contemplant la grandesa de les muntanyes.En: Both sat in silence, contemplating the grandeur of the mountains.Ca: La Marina, amb veu suau, va encoratjar l'Oriol a parlar.En: Marina, with a soft voice, encouraged Oriol to speak.Ca: —De vegades només cal deixar anar el passat per permetre que el futur arribi —va dir ella, mirant-lo als ulls.En: "Sometimes you just need to let go of the past to allow the future to arrive," she said, looking into his eyes.Ca: L'Oriol va sentir que unes llàgrimes lliscaven per les seves galtes.En: Oriol felt tears slide down his cheeks.Ca: Va obrir el cor i li va explicar a la Marina tot el dolor retingut, totes les pors.En: He opened his heart and told Marina all the pain held inside, all the fears.Ca: En aquell moment, va experimentar una pausa, una claredat que no havia tingut en mesos.En: In that moment, he experienced a pause, a clarity he hadn't had in months.Ca: Va ser com si un pes li hagués caigut.En: It was as if a weight had lifted from him.Ca: El matí següent, l'Oriol es va acomiadar de la Marina i de Montserrat amb un somriure sincer.En: The next morning, Oriol said goodbye to Marina and Montserrat with a sincere smile.Ca: Se sentia alliberat i amb esperança.En: He felt liberated and hopeful.Ca: La Marina, veient-lo marxar, va saber que havia estat al lloc correcte, en el moment correcte.En: Marina, watching him leave, knew she had been in the right place at the right time.Ca: Haver ajudat l'Oriol li havia donat un nou sentit de connexió i propòsit.En: Helping Oriol had given her a new sense of connection and purpose.Ca: Així, l'Oriol va deixar Montserrat amb una nova il·lusió per la vida, obert als canvis i amb la confiança renovada.En: Thus, Oriol left Montserrat with a new excitement for life, open to change and with renewed confidence.Ca: Mentre baixava el camí de la muntanya, amb l'aire de la tardor al seu voltant, va sentir que el món estava ple de possibilitats.En: As he walked down the mountain path, with the autumn air around him, he felt that the world was full of possibilities.Ca: La Marina, d'altra banda, es quedava amb la satisfacció de saber que havia estat amiga quan es necessitava.En: Marina, on the other hand, remained with the satisfaction of knowing she had been a friend when needed.Ca: I Montserrat, entre cants de serenitat, va seguir donant la seva màgia als qui buscaven respostes.En: And Montserrat, amidst chants of serenity, continued to lend its magic to those seeking answers.
