Let’s Get Visible: Finding a way to be seen that works for you - with Antonia Taylor
If you want to see a room full of big-hearted women suddenly get all hot and bothered, say the word VISIBILITY.
Women in particular, tend to have an inbuilt fear around being seen and yet if we want to advance and grow in our careers and businesses, we have to remain visible.
So how can we do it in a way that feels safe - and enjoyable - and doesn’t make us want to run and hide? Is that even possible?
Well that is what we dive into in this week’s conversation with Antonia Taylor, a PR, communications and content strategist, poet and author of the white paper ‘Being Seen’ which highlights the visibility paradox: “women’s contributions remain overlooked at work, impacting their professional advancement and creating a gender imbalance at senior organisational levels. But when women step into visibility, they risk being exposed to the consequences of breaching unspoken codes of expectations and behaviours”.
In a nutshell, we’re screwed.
Or are we? While I started this conversation with Antonia feeling increasingly angry and upset as she told me how far we are from gender parity (like 117 years away!), by the end of the conversation I felt fired up, hopefully and inspired.
So I hope you will do too!

Rediscovering the lost goddesses of Britain - with Kim Willis
The Summer of 2026 will always be remembered by me as the summer I read ‘No Fair Maidens’ (https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/468042/no-fair-maidens-by-willis-kim/9781529947847) by Kim Willis (https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/468042/no-fair-maidens-by-willis-kim/9781529947847)
I had known that Kim had been writing this book for the past few years and when I first heard that it was about a wild journey with the lost goddesses of Britain - I couldn’t wait for her to be finished so that I could get my hands on it.
This summer it was finally published and it’s no exaggeration to say that reading it has been transformational. In fact, I didn’t read it, I listened to it on Audible (https://www.audible.co.uk/pd/No-Fair-Maidens-Audiobook/B0GFNJ9B33?eac_link=xtfxShCHHur4&ref=web_search_eac_asin_1&eac_selected_type=asin&eac_selected=B0GFNJ9B33&qid=nNuGpVTBMs&eac_id=521-9642144-4742050_nNuGpVTBMs&sr=1-1)and can really recommend experiencing it that way, because Kim is a bewitching story-teller.
And I’m not the only one obsessed with this book. Published by Penguin, it has already become a best-seller, and I’m sure it’s because women all over Britain and beyond have spent the summer whispering to other women ‘you must read this book’.
And you really must.
Here is what I said about it in my review on Audible (always leave a review if you love a book…or a journal 😉).
So I was thrilled when Kim said she would come onto the podcast to talk about her book, the journey that lead her to write it and how reconnecting with the myths of our ancestors and the land, can help us reconnect with ourselves and remember who we are.
