Diversify

Joelle found his calling in diversifying the world of fitness, so you can imagine we thought he'd be the PERFECT guest for us - and we weren't wrong!

Season 2 continues with the CEO & founder of At Your Beat studios Joelle D'Fontaine. We chatted about living diversity not just preaching it, finding joy in keeping fit & showing the haters what's what. Also, this may be the most positive episode we've ever recorded, so get ready to feel uncharacteristically uplifted after listening to 40 minutes of this gem of a man...

WE'RE BAAAAAACK - and we sure do have a great first episode for you! Holly and Kate kick of Season 2 in style with Neo-Burlesque legend Lolo Brow.

Not only does Lolo give us the lowdown on the art of political, feminist performance, but she also has some awesome opinions on sexuality, gender and the art of saying no. Oh, and she taught us something about cats that rocked our world...

It's the final episode of Diversify season 1! Join hosts Kate & Holly as they look back on what they learnt over the past 7 episodes and go on some philosophical tangents that make loads of sense to them but might make you wonder what goes on in their brains... Kate & Holly will be back for season 2 of Diversify next year with even more guests and an even bigger dollop of aspirational wokeness. Until then, enjoy this final episode!

Disclaimer: as much as we like to think we're the great thinkers of our time, this is not a philosophy podcast.
