  • Travel with Holly Rubenstein

    Travel with Holly Rubenstein
    Apr 26 2021
    Travel - in AND out of covid is our topic for today.  For obvious reasons, the travel industry has been hugely impacted by the lockdown restrictions around the world.  Joining us this week is the entertainment and travel journalist Holly Rubenstein who hosts the UK's #1 travel podcast The Travel Diaries (which we would highly recommend for some healthy wanderlust).  In the episode we allow ourselves to dream a little about the travels we have loved and where we can't wait to go back to, as well as digging into what the restrictions on travel have been and what they're likely to be going forwards. We also ponder what our future travel anxieties might be and whether our behaviours around going on holiday and travelling for business may have changed for good... Freaking the F Out is a podcast where Kelsey Bennett and Maddy Scott examine the inner workings of their anxious minds.  Covering everything from the minute to the very big and life changing, they’re not mental health professionals but they do happen to have some experience in the field.

  • Charity with Fundraising Expert Rob Woods

    Charity with Fundraising Expert Rob Woods
    Apr 12 2021
    The pandemic has hit charities HARD. We dig into why donating & fundraising are proving tricky (even before COVID) and how charities are doing brilliant things to pivot in these uncertain times. ⁠⁠We feel good about being involved but also we hate shaking our bucket and asking for people's attention and ...money!  And it can feel very vulnerable sharing such personal stories. ⁠⁠We speak to Rob Woods, Fundraising expert and Podcast Host of Fundraising Bright Spots to understand how charities themselves work and how they are adapting in the pandemic.  Freaking the F Out is a podcast where Kelsey Bennett and Maddy Scott examine the inner workings of their anxious minds.  Covering everything from the minute to the very big and life changing, they’re not mental health professionals but they do happen to have some experience in the field.

    Being Fearless with Chloe Brotheridge
    Mar 1 2021
    Ready to take on the new week of the new month without fear? Yes? Good for you! No? Well, turns out, that's ok too (thankfully).  Chloe Brotheridge is a Hypnotherapist, Coach and Author of The Anxiety Solution and The Confidence Solution and she talks to us about 'Being Fearless' this week.  We delve into how bravery isn't really to do with an absence of fear and how confidence isn't really something you have or you don't - as well as taking a peek at our inner critic and core beliefs.  Eek! Very brave...

Our guest is Stefanie Sword-Williams, founder of F*ck Being Humble and she manages to convince us that Self-Promotion is not a dirty word and that it's very possible to sound confidence without coming across as arrogant.  It's actually pretty great...
