Let me know what you loved about the episode!Life feels uncertain for so many of us right now.Whether it's worrying about money, relationships, health, your career, your family,  or simply feeling unsettled by what's happening in the world, uncertainty has a way of pulling us into overthinking, fear, and worst-case scenarios.In this week's episode of Loving Life – A Guide to a Positive Mindset, Lisa shares how to stay positive during uncertain times without falling into toxic positivity or pretending everything is fine.Inside this episode, you'll learn:Why uncertainty can trigger anxiety, overthinking, and emotional exhaustionHow your nervous system responds when life feels unpredictableSimple ways to stay present instead of spiralling into “what if” thinkingPractical mindset shifts to help you feel calmer, safer, and more in controlWhy creating inner safety matters when life feels outside of your controlLisa also gently touches on the idea of safety and security, something listeners may recognise from the recent chakra mini-series, helping you understand why uncertainty can feel so unsettling on both a mental and emotional level.If life feels a little wobbly right now, this episode is your reminder that positivity isn't about ignoring reality, it's about learning how to support yourself through it. Support the showI'm opening up a free live experience called The Sunday Reset.

Let me know what you loved about the episode!Have you ever had one of those days where you're doing all the “right” things but something still feels off?In this honest and unfiltered episode I'm sharing a real behind-the-scenes moment from this week when I sat down to record, tried to push through the procrastination, told myself to “practice what you preach” and still knew something wasn't clicking.I almost forced it.I almost ignored the feeling.But instead, I stepped away.And what happened next reminded me of something so important:Sometimes the clarity you're searching for doesn't come from another sign, another answer, or another push.Sometimes it comes when you stop. And listen to what your inner voice has been communicating all along.In this episode, we explore:Why pushing through isn't always the answerThe subtle signs your mind and body may be asking for a resetWhy self-trust can feel hard when safety is missingThe difference between looking for signs, and learning to listen inwardHow space, stillness, and alignment can bring the clarity you've been cravingIf you've been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or like something just feels "off" lately this episode is for you. And if you resonate with this, you'll love my Inner Circle, and at the end of the month I'll be offering a free taster session!

Let me know what you loved about the episode!Do you ever feel like you need more clarity before can move forward?Like if you could just figure it out, you'd finally feel calm, confident and certain you're on the right path. In this episode, we're talking about how this is linked to the Crown Chakra, how it brings together the overthinking, self doubt and the need for certainty, and why we might not necessarily be craving more answers but actually more trust. If you've enjoyed this series so far, this is exactly the kind of thing we do in the Inner Circle, but DEEPER!

In a realm where the learned are held at the highest esteem, a fool is called upon to challenge a trickster.  Genre: Fairy Tale   Excerpt:"I visit you because I am curious." "I think it's because you want to be the first trickster who understands a fool." The trickster laughed. "My dear Sovereign, no one amuses me as you do. But I must tell you. To a trickster, everyone is a fool."   The Wheel of Fiction Turns. What did it land on this time?Each Season 9 story follows a theme chosen by the Wheel of Fiction. Thirteen spokes. Eight are the themes from previous seasons. One is "Turn Again." One is a wild card. And three are covered in question marks and will be revealed when the wheel lands on them. See a story trailer and a (satisfying) video of the wheel turning here: Only Fools Prevail This episode landed on CHALLENGE. The character faces a challenge that they are too foolish to face.

Let me know what you loved about the episode!Have you ever noticed how you can be completely capable, and still second-guess yourself?You know what you're doing.You've got the experience.And yet you hesitate, overthink, or look for reassurance before taking action.In this episode, we explore the emotional layer connected to confidence, self-trust, and personal power, often associated with the solar plexus chakra.Rather than focusing on surface-level confidence tips, we look at what's happening underneath. Why self-doubt can show up even when you're more than capable, and how this often comes down to learning to trust yourself again.You'll learn some of the everyday ways this shows up, how it can affect how you speak, decide, and show up in your life, and one simple way to begin rebuilding that inner trust.Because it's not that you don't know what to do... it's that you don't fully trust yourself to do it.And if you enjoyed this, you'll love my Inner Circle!

Let me know what you loved about the episode!Have you ever had those phases where life looks fine on the surface, but something feels slightly off underneath? You're getting through your days, ticking things off your list, doing everything you need to do, but you feel a little disconnected, a little flat, or like you've lost your spark.In this episode, we explore the emotional layer connected to joy, creativity and feeling present in your life, which is often linked to the sacral chakra.Rather than approaching this from a purely spiritual perspective, we look at how modern life, constant responsibilities, and staying in “doing mode” can slowly disconnect us from feeling and enjoyment.You'll learn some of the everyday signs that this layer may feel a little quiet or blocked, why that happens, and one simple way to begin reconnecting with yourself again.Because it's not that your joy has disappeared... it may just have been deprioritised.If you enjoyed this, you'll love my Inner Circle! In this membership, I guide you through growth in a structured, supportive way, focusing on one emotional theme at a time so change actually sticks, instead of adding to the overwhelm.If you'd like to be on the wait list so you are the first to know when doors open, click hereSupport the showLinks + Resources:Gratitude Journal:Hardback @£14.99 includes free 2nd class shippingPaperback @£11.11 includes free 2nd class shippingAmazon for those not in the UK--------------------------------Find the links to all free resources (including free subliminals and affirmations) hereMeditation for Letting Go on YouTube here Want to go deeper with this work?

Let me know what you loved about the episode!Have you ever had those periods where life just feels slightly harder than it should?You're overthinking small decisions, your mind won't fully switch off, and you feel a subtle sense of unease even when nothing is technically wrong.In this episode, we explore the emotional layer connected to safety and stability, often associated with the root chakra.Rather than approaching this from a purely spiritual perspective, we look at how your nervous system learns what “safe” feels like, and how that sense of safety can quietly influence your thoughts, decisions, and energy as an adult.You'll learn some of the everyday signs that this foundation may feel unsettled, how it can show up both emotionally and physically, and one simple way to begin supporting this layer in your own life.Because when our sense of safety settles, everything else becomes easier to build.In this episode I'm talking about:• Why feeling safe is the foundation of emotional wellbeing• How early experiences can shape our nervous system's sense of safety• Everyday signs that your system may still be “on guard”• Physical symptoms that can accompany nervous system tension• What life often feels like when this layer becomes more balanced• A simple grounding action to support your sense of stabilityIf you enjoyed this, you'll love my Inner Circle!

Is the "ultimate" 911 actually too much for the road? In this episode of 9WERKS Radio, we explore a move that most enthusiasts would find unthinkable. We are joined by His Geezership, Guy Feltham, who reveals why he decided to sell his stunning Porsche 911 (991.1) GT3 RS to get behind the wheel of a "lesser" 991.1 Carrera GTS.Guy's story isn't just about the car; it's a deep dive into the reality of RS ownership. Does the 4.0L track weapon lose its charm when you're not on a circuit? Guy breaks down the ergonomics, the "Specialness vs. Usability" debate, and why the naturally aspirated 3.8L GTS might just be the most rewarding 911 he's ever owned.The Reality of Porsche GT Ownership: To go even deeper, the team from Garage Therapy joins the conversation. We tackle the hidden "downfalls" of owning a Porsche GT car—from the psychological stress of "mileage buckets" and stone chips to the high-stakes maintenance that comes with track-bred engineering.Finding the 911 Sweet Spot: Finally, we sit down with Danny from Lakeside Classics to look at the market data. Danny explains why the 991.1 GTS has emerged as the definitive "sweet spot" in the 911 lineage, combining the last of the wide-body, naturally aspirated Carrera DNA with modern reliability and road-focused damping.In this episode, we discuss:RS to GTS: Guy Feltham's honest comparison between the 991.1 GT3 RS and GTS equivalent. The "GT Trap": Garage Therapy share personal realities of the merits and compromises of Porsche GT products.The Mezger-lite? Why the 991.1 GTS engine is becoming a modern classic.Lakeside Classics' View: Why the 991 GTS is currently the most requested 911 in their showroom."Driven Not Hidden": How to actually use a high-value Porsche without the fear of depreciation.Connect with our Guests: Guy Feltham: Follow Guy's Porsche journey @askgeez  Garage Therapy: Professional car care and detailing experts.

Let me know what you loved about the episode!Have you ever had someone say "we never see you anymore" and instantly felt a wave of guilt?For many women, life becomes a constant juggle. Work, family, relationships, health, friendships and the pressure to somehow keep everything balanced while still finding a little white space to breathe.In this episode, I explore a question I was recently asked about managing a busy life when the people around you feel like they're not getting enough of your time.This isn't just about time management. It's about energy, capacity and understanding the different seasons of life we move through as women.We talk about the invisible pressure many women carry to show up for everyone, how our hormonal cycles can influence our energy and social capacity, and why learning to honour your own limits is not selfish, it's essential.If you've ever felt stretched between caring for the people around you and caring for yourself, this episode is for you.If this conversation made you feel seen, please consider sharing the episode with someone who might need to hear it too.And if you enjoy the podcast, leaving a review or sharing it with a friend helps more women discover the show.Please support the showIf you've been enjoying the podcast and want to help keep it ad-free, you can now support the show for less than one Starbucks a month!As a thank you, you'll receive my exclusive Monday Morning Pep Talks, short, uplifting chats to help you start your week with clarity and positive energy.You can support here or directly on Apple by clicking on the padlockSupport the showLinks + Resources: Gratitude Journal: Hardback @£14.99 includes free 2nd class shipping Paperback @£11.11 includes free 2nd class shipping Amazon for those not in the UK -------------------------------- Find the links to all free resources (including free subliminals and affirmations) here Meditation for Letting Go on YouTube here Want to go deeper with this work?

Let me know what you loved about the episode!If you've ever felt exhausted by personal growth instead of energised by it, this episode is for you.In today's episode we're talking about something many women experience but rarely name: invisible overwhelm.You might think you're unmotivated, inconsistent, or not trying hard enough.But often, the real issue isn't a lack of discipline. It's emotional overload.When you try to change your habits, mindset, confidence, healing, routines, boundaries and life direction all at once, your nervous system doesn't experience that as growth.

Let me know what you loved about the episode!In this episode, I'm talking about the power of love as a vibrational frequency, and why it's far more powerful than hate.Yep. I'm talking about Bad Bunny's Super Bowl moment. “The only thing more powerful than hate is love,” I couldn't not speak about it.Because this isn't just a trend or a slogan.It's energy.We explore:Love vs hate through the lens of frequencyThe turning point in consciousness described by David R. Hawkins and his Map of ConsciousnessWhy love is expansive and regulating, while hate is draining and survival-basedHow this links to my own Magnetic Map of Consciousness* and energetic alignment(*to see mentioned Magnetic Map of Consciousness click here )Love is not naïve.It's stabilising.It's powerful.And every day, in small moments, we choose which frequency we amplify.There's still time to join Flow and Flourish, you can join here: https://flow-and-flourish.lisadavidge.co.uk/flow--flourish-1539Because when you understand your frequency (your energy) you change your results. Support the showLinks + Resources: Gratitude Journal: Hardback @£14.99 includes free 2nd class shipping Paperback @£11.11 includes free 2nd class shipping Amazon for those not in the UK -------------------------------- Find the links to all free resources here Want support to go deeper with this work?

Let me know what you loved about the episode!Ever notice how you can plan something perfectly... in your head...and somehow your suitcase is still empty the night before you leave?Yep. Same!In this episode, I'm talking about something I've quietly done for years...leaving things until the last minute.Packing.Recording.Starting projects.Even things I'm excited about.And for the longest time, I told myself the same old story:“I must be disorganised', "I always procrastinate" and "next time I'll be more organised".If you're thinking "I could've written this myself" I've got great news. It doesn't mean you're lazy. Well not all the time

Let me know what you loved about the episode!If you're trying to juggle everything: work, family, relationships, self-care, personal growth, and constantly feel like you're falling short, this episode is for you.When your list of roles becomes endless, it's easy to lose sight of where you actually fit. We talk about why our energy has a limit, why our attention has a limit, and why our nervous systems were never designed to constantly switch between roles all day long. This isn't a motivation issue or a mindset flaw.... it's a capacity issue.I also explore why trying to be good at everything doesn't make us impressive, it often leaves us burnt out, scattered, and feeling mediocre in the areas that matter most. And why choosing just one or two priorities for a season isn't selfish, it's powerful.This episode is a gentle but honest invitation to stop juggling, start choosing, and give yourself permission to focus your energy where it truly matters.Mentioned in this episode:Flow and Flourish a workshop designed to help you choose your focus intentionally and create more ease, rather than pressure. It's happening on zoom, on 15th February at 3pm UK time. You can book your spot hereIf this episode resonated, I hope it gives you permission to stop trying to be everything, and start honouring what you actually have the capacity for right now.Support the showLinks + Resources: Gratitude Journal: Hardback @£14.99 includes free 2nd class shipping Paperback @£11.11 includes free 2nd class shipping Amazon for those not in the UK -------------------------------- Find the links to all free resources here Want support to go deeper with this work?

Let me know what you loved about the episode!This morning, a song lyric caught me off guard.Olivia Dean sings, “It's so easy to fall in love with me.”And before the warmth of that sentence could land... a quieter, more conditioned thought appeared.Judgement. Discomfort. The old story of it's “braggy”In this episode, I'm sharing how that tiny moment opened a much bigger reflection on female confidence, self-perception, and the subconscious rules many of us have absorbed about what women are “allowed” to say about themselves.We explore why women so often feel safer criticising themselves than acknowledging their goodness, and how owning something beautiful about who we are can still feel edgy in the body, even when we consciously value self-love.This is a gentle, reflective episode about:Why female self-confidence is so often misread as egoThe difference between proving, and simply knowingHow subconscious conditioning shapes our self-talkAnd what happens when we begin to let goodness land instead of deflecting itI also offer a soft self-inquiry you can sit with this week:I want you to finish this sentence.  “It's so easy to fall in love with me because...”Just to notice what arises... and what gently wants rewriting.If you've ever felt uncomfortable being seen as confident, capable, or grounded in who you are, this conversation is for you.As always, take what resonates, leave what doesn't, and be kind with whatever this brings up for you.Support the showLinks + Resources: Gratitude Journal: Hardback @£14.99 includes free 2nd class shipping Paperback @£11.11 includes free 2nd class shipping Amazon for those not in the UK -------------------------------- Find the links to all free resources here Want support to go deeper with this work?

Let me know what you loved about the episode!As we step into a new year, I've found myself in a deeply reflective space. In this episode of Loving Life – A Guide to a Positive Mindset, I'm sharing a very personal conversation... almost like a voice note to my future self.I talk about my youngest turning 15, what it's stirred in me, and the bittersweet realisation that this chapter of motherhood is slowly changing. The cuddles look different. The conversations change. The future starts to feel closer.We explore the beauty and the ache of watching our children grow, the fears that can surface around them becoming more independent, and the gentle practice of learning to let go while still loving deeply.I also share a some shared wisdom that truly landed in my heart recently:This episode is for any parent who has felt that quiet lump in their throat when they realise time is moving. But it's also for anyone reflecting on growth, change, connection, and the seasons of life.Talking of changing with the seasons, here is the link to book onto Flow and Flourish.

This episode goes a bit deeper.Not in a dramatic way. Not in a “let's be profound” way. But in the way that happens when you slow down, sit with people you trust, and talk honestly about why certain things matter.In Part 2 of this Sir Jacobs mini-series, I'm joined by Mitch and his mum Crystal. And what unfolds is one of those conversations that starts with product, but very quickly becomes about life, values, courage, and the choices we make along the way.It's about what we allow into our homes. What we put on our skin. What we light at the end of the day. And what those small choices say about who we are and how we want to live.This is not a glossy brand story. It's a real conversation about craft, care, and building something that actually means something.What we talk about in this episodeHow Sir Jacobs started as a passion project and a bit of a risk, long before it became a brand others wanted to be part ofWhy handmade really matters, and why not everything deserves to make it out of the studioThe discipline of doing things properly, even when nobody is watchingHow scent becomes part of your life without you even realising itThe idea of ritual, from lighting a candle at the end of the day to creating a feeling when someone walks through your doorWhat legacy really looks like when you strip away the noiseWhy choosing your vessel and choosing your fragrance is about identity, not interiorsSustainability as a way of working, not a marketing lineMoments that really landed for meThere are a few moments in this episode that stayed with me.Crystal describing her first Sir Jacobs piece as something solid and grounding, almost like it had always existed.The attention given to the base of a ceramic vessel, even though most people will never look at it.The honesty about smashing pieces that are not right, even when that hurts financially.Mitch talking about the courage it took to step away from safe options and back something uncertain.And the quiet realisation that Sir Jacobs is not just something you buy, it becomes something you live with.What this episode is really aboutThis conversation is about integrity.About not cutting corners. About caring deeply. About choosing to do things slowly and properly in a world that rewards speed and shortcuts.It's also about pride. Pride in craft. Pride in where things are made. Pride in creating something that feels considered and respectful.And if I'm honest, it's also about noticing how rare that is.One line that sums it up“When you build something with care and intention, people feel it. They might not be able to explain why, but they know.”That's what stayed with me.My final thoughtThis episode is a reminder to pause and notice what's around you.Not just what looks good. But what feels right. What lasts. What carries meaning.Because the things we surround ourselves with shape our days more than we realise.Visit Sir Jacobs and use code LAUNCHUK20 for 20% Discount

Women On Purpose Podcast - Sir Jacobs: Real Voices, Real Homes (Part 1)This week's episode is a little different… and honestly, it's one of my favourites to record.Because behind every brand we admire, every beautiful product we bring into our homes, there are people. Real voices. Real relationships. Real stories.In Part 1 of this two-part mini-series, I'm joined by Kerry, Sean, and Alicia (Ben's neighbours and Ben's mum) for a relaxed, laughter-filled conversation, complete with mimosas, all about what Sir Jacobs feels like when it's not a marketing campaign… but something you actually live with.What comes through so clearly isn't just appreciation for the ceramics or fragrances.It's the connection to the intention.The craftsmanship.The pride.The “oh my God… where did you get that?” moments.And the kind of quality you can't fake, because you can feel it the second you pick it up.This episode is about trust.It's about what happens when something is made slowly, thoughtfully, and with purpose.And it's about how a brand doesn't just land on shelves… it lands in lives.In this episode, we talk about…First encounters with Sir Jacobs, the accidental discovery in the guest loo that turns into “I need this in every room.”Why these products don't just smell beautiful… they shift the whole atmosphere of a home.The joy of ritual, Sunday night baths, candles lit, diffusers going, and that “company's coming” spritz routine.The magic of “choose your vessel, choose your fragrance”, and the refill concept that makes it feel both luxe and sensible.Why Sir Jacobs is becoming a natural fit for boutique hotels, resorts, and luxury gifting, including the new bracket solution for hospitality spaces.How scent creates memory, that instant transport back to a place, a moment, a feeling.What you'll hear (and feel) in Part 11) “I didn't even know I was encountering it…”Kerry describes discovering Sir Jacobs without realising it, then walking out of the bathroom basically demanding to know where it came from. That moment of genuine surprise is everything.2) The “waft” factor

Show NotesIn this special and very personal episode of the Women on Purpose, Toni Eastwood OBE sits down with a close friend Ben Colling whose relationship with this series sponsor Sir Jacobs, didn't begin as an investor - but as a genuine admirer, user, and believer.This conversation traces the journey from loving the product, to living with it in everyday spaces, to recognising that what had been created was more than beautiful objects - it was a brand with depth, story, and emotional resonance.Toni chats with Ben, who openly shares the realities of the early stage:the brand initially being a side projectthe pivotal moment where growth required commitment and capitalthe clarity around what level of investment was neededand how trust, shared values, and belief shaped the partnershipAt its heart, this episode is about organic investment - the kind that comes from emotional connection, lived experience, and alignment, not pitch decks and pressure.A powerful listen for founders navigating funding, partnerships, and the vulnerable leap from passion project to serious business.Key HighlightsThe brand was loved before it was invested in - The relationship began with genuine admiration for the product - its look, feel, and presence in the home.This started as a side project, not a polished business - The brand was originally a “job on the side,” before reaching a natural turning point.Living with the product changed everything - Seeing and using the pieces daily created a visceral, emotional connection that went far beyond “this is nice.”Investment came from belief, not persuasion - The decision to invest followed deep understanding of the story, values, and future potential — not a hard sell.Partnership was formed with clarity and trust - The investment amount, shareholding structure, and timing were all handled transparently, reinforcing mutual respect.Best Bits“It wasn't just ‘this is lovely' - it was something you felt when you picked it up.”“At that stage, it was still a hobby… a good one, but a job on the side.”“You live with it - it becomes part of your home, part of your everyday.”“There's always that pivotal moment in small business where you realise you can't grow without investment.”“That was when the partnership was born - and the shareholding structure followed.”Why this episode mattersThis isn't a funding story. It's a belief story. It shows what happens when:the product speaks for itselftrust exists before contractsand investment is a natural extension of love for the brandVisit Sir Jacobs and use code LAUNCHUK20 for 20% Discount

Episode SummaryIn this episode of Fat and Fertile, I'm joined by the brilliant Dr. Alice Keeley – also known as The HeavyWeight Midwife. Alice has over 20 years' experience as a midwife, completed a PhD on plus-size pregnancy care, and is fiercely committed to challenging the weight stigma baked into our maternity systems.We get stuck into the reality of being pregnant in a bigger body – from being weighed without consent at booking appointments, to automatic referrals that leave people feeling confused, judged, and “high risk” before anything's even gone wrong. Alice breaks down how these moments impact care, and shares her passion for creating a more personalised, compassionate, and evidence-based approach to pregnancy support.We also explore Alice's own journey – how her background in social justice shaped her care values, how she came to launch The HeavyWeight Midwife in 2022, and why she believes confidence and communication are essential for navigating pregnancy with autonomy and self-trust.In this episode, I talk about:Why BMI-based guidelines don't tell the full storyHow weight stigma shows up in maternity care (and what to do about it)What's actually useful to know about risks in plus-size pregnancyHow to advocate for yourself at appointments – even when it feels scaryWhy scans, referrals, and medication should always involve informed consentThe surprising role that things like wind and tissue density play in ultrasound scans (!)And why water birth access is a fat-positive issue we should all be talking aboutAlice also shares how her online community and trimester-by-trimester courses are helping thousands of people feel seen, supported, and prepared for pregnancy and birth on their own terms.Links and ResourcesEmail me: nicola@nicolasalmon.co.ukFind me on Instagram: @fatpositivefertilityMy book: Fat and Fertile – available via AmazonAlice's website: theheavyweightmidwife.comConnect with Alice on Instagram: @theheavyweightmidwifeFind Alice's support programmes and membership via her websiteListen to Alice's podcast: The HeavyWeight Midwife PodcastGet InvolvedNicola would love to hear from you!

In this episode of Fat and Fertile, I'm diving deep into something I don't talk about nearly enough—what fat positive fertility coaching actually is, and why it matters so much.I've been a fertility coach for over seven years now, and while I often share tools, insights, and resources, I realised I haven't really broken down how coaching works or what it looks like to be supported in a fat-positive, weight-neutral space. So that's what this episode is all about.I share how my own experience of being diagnosed with PCOS as a teen—and being told I'd never have children—led me to this work. And I explain how my journey through unlearning diet culture and stepping away from weight loss gave me the clarity and drive to support others doing the same, especially those navigating fertility in bigger bodies.In this episode, I talk about:What coaching means to me (and why it's not about “fixing” you)The unique challenges fat folks face when trying to get pregnantWhy we deserve support that's free from judgement and shameWhat it means to create safety in your nervous system as you navigate this processHow to explore health-promoting behaviours without dietingAnd why separating your worth from your ability to conceive is a game-changerI also explain what a fat positive approach really looks like in practice—how I work with you to move from where you are now to where you want to be, using tools that centre your autonomy, your lived experience, and your joy.If you've ever felt like you're battling the system just to be seen, heard, or supported—this one's for you. And if it resonates, I'd love to invite you to book a free 30-minute chat with me. No pressure, no pushy sales pitch—just a space to connect and see if coaching might be the right next step for you.Resources & Links:Email me: nicola@nicolasalmon.co.ukFind me on Instagram: @fatpositivefertilityMy book: Fat and Fertile – available via AmazonJoin my community: Ko-Fi MembershipThanks for listening, lovely.

It was 9.50 am when paramedics rushed to Queenswood Avenue in Bournemouth after a 999 call from Anita Turner. In a calm tone, she had told the call handler: “My son's friend is staying with us. This morning I tried to wake both of them up but the girl didn't wake up. I can't wake her up.” The ‘friend' she was referring to was her son's girlfriend of the past few months, seventeen-year-old Emily Longley. Why had a seemingly fit and healthy Emily died that night?In this episode, we discover once again, how families are not always what they seem, and secrets are held within the four walls.Writing Credit: Tanita MatthewsBuy Tanita's new book today:https://www.amazon.co.uk/Murder-Judith-Roberts-Peter-Sutcliffe/dp/1399080121White Ribbonhttps://www.whiteribbon.org.ukFind out more about the UK True Crime Podcast:https://uktruecrime.comSupport me at Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/UKTrueCrimeSourcesAn Entitled Man - UK True Crime Hosted on Acast.
