After a catch up on Ell's long flight home, Minnies first snow experience and Chlo's experience at Coldplay in Amsterdam, Tayla Clement drops in to share her story of resilience and compassion.

Tayla was born with Moebius Sydndrome: a rare congenital condition that mainly affects the muscles that control facial expression and eye movement.

Despite enduring a life of constant bullying and torment, and more hurdles than anyone should have to face, Tayla's strength, determination and big heart shines through. This ep had our box of Kleenex on empty!
