Brave Enough to Be You

In this bonus episode I share my story of struggling to conceive, birth, miscarriage and baby loss.

I want to help break the taboo around these sensitive subjects so that you know you are not alone.

It is estimated that 1 in 7 couples may have difficulty conceiving and 1 in 4 pregnancies may end in loss but these figures may actually be much higher as we are still not talking about them.

This may not be an easy listen but if it helps one woman then it is worth it.  

If you need help and support around any of these issues please talk to someone, a friend, family, your G.P. or one of many support groups or charities that are available - you do not need to suffer in silence.

On this week's episode, I am talking to Sue Tappenden from Headspace for Change, and we cover everything from IVF and ectopic pregnancy to divorce and redundancy.

Being brave enough to be her, lost Sue her job and she vowed at that point to never work for anyone else - twelve years later and she never has!

We also talk about how to look at where you are (or are not) getting support and how to ask for it!

In this episode of Brave Enough to Be You I chat with The Baby Reflux Lady, Aine Homer.

Aine left her job to start her business and ploughed all of their savings into publishing a book.

During this interview we talk about having the courage to post controversial content on social media and how calling yourself an author takes some getting used to! 

This episode of Brave Enough to Be You features the World's first and only Comparison Coach, Lucy Sheridan.

We talk bonsais, bailiffs, boundaries and what it takes to be brave in the online world.

Lucy also shares how setting boundaries around networking helped her - and others - differentiate between coffee and coaching.

In this debut episode of Brave Enough to Be You I explore my journey of being brave enough to be me and how that can help you.

I discuss how every single person we ever come in to contact with has an effect on us, whether that be positive or negative and how we always have a choice about whether we take that on or not.

Stepping in to who I am meant to be does take bravery and the journey isn't over yet.

A podcast to encourage you to stop holding back, playing safe and staying small and instead, step up, stop hiding, and be brave enough to be you.
