Living in your 20s
Hi guys welcome back!
This week I'm talking about living in your 20's vs trying to have your shit together and have a career. I'll discussing a 'quarter life crisis' I think I'm going through one (maybe you are too). Its hard to try live life, have fun AS WE SHOULD but also make a living and be successful. I'll be talking about the pressures we face in this day and age as people in our 20's and how we put A LOT of pressure on ourselves to keep up with trends and lifestyles. Do you want to travel, do you want a family, do you want a quiet life, do you want to save all your money, do you want to get shitfaced every weekend but also be successful ugh it can all be a lot to handle. Join me to discuss it all and relieve some of the pressure we put on ourselves and just live for today (she says). So grab a drink, your favourite blanket, a BIG snack and have a listen x

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
Hello!!!
After my recent diagnosis of PCOS I wanted to do this episode about PCOS and explain what is is, how it affects people and my personal story of how it has affected me. This affects 1 in 10 women across the country and everyone has their own experiences. I will be discussing advice and information I have read from support groups and instagram pages which provide tips on how to manage this and keep symptoms on a low. This can really affect you physically due to changes on your body and face and also mentally so I want people to know your not alone and there is a great support system out there and if you suffer then I'm going through this with you too but its not all negative most people lead a perfectly happy healthy lifestyle with this condition so of course there's some positive vibes thrown out there as well! SO come and join me for our Friday night chats xo

The battles of body Image
Hi guys,
Hope you are well, In today's episode I will be discussing body Image.. from fat shaming to skinny shaming, eating disorders and just general grief we give ourselves over our bodies. How social media plays a HUGE role in making people feel shameful about the way they look and comparing ourselves to each other or airbrushed bodies that we see on our screens everyday. Think back to when you were younger and you never even thought about your body shape or size and how overtime it has become an obsession we are all sucked into. Also discuss the changes that are slowly happening and how all body types/shapes and NATURAL bodies are slowing taking over and preach self love and care to ourselves and one another.
Come, sit back and join me in this discussion we have and will continue to have on a daily basis and remember you are loved and you are beautiful xo

Online shopping pros and cons, where's the love for our midsize gals and modelling horror stories...
Hey girls,
Welcome back.. this weeks episode I'll be talking online shopping how we all LOVE it and it is the new way to shop and how its improved welcoming diversity over the years. Talking about taking the plunge and ordering 5 different dresses and feeling all excited when you order something you love to then try it on and it make you feel shit. I will talk about midsize fashion and how it is a huge gap in the modelling/fashion industry and it leaves a lot of women stuck and feeling out of touch when trying to order clothes online. I will also talk about some modelling stories I've received from my friends and how it sucked them in and try to change who they are as a person and mould them into something the brand wanted. Discuss some of the toxic traits the modelling industry hold BUT also talk about the changes that are happening (it cant all be negative lol) and how in the past 10 years we have made some great changes and we finally see people who look like ourselves on runways, covers and online.
Come and have a listen - grab yourself a drink and your fave snack and enjoy x
