Lorraine Candy is the former Editor-in-Chief of Elle, Sunday Times Style and Cosmopolitan, an award-winning journalist, author and podcast host. She is now focussing full time on writing after just releasing her first book "101 things only mothers of teenage girls know." A keen advocate for women in their midlife, she is also the co-host of the chart-topping lifestyle podcast “Postcards from Midlife.” Originally from Cornwall, Lorraine is a keen open water swimmer, dog lover and mother of four!

In this episode Lorraine talks openly about her first ever front page byline and how this sliding doors moment was the key to opening up her extremely successful career in journalism. We chat about an amazing chain of events which led her to tackle one the hardest open water swims and turned out to be one of the best experiences of her life. If not for that....would there ever have been the podcast or a book? For motivation and inspiration, this episode will really challenge you to think big and when you do, those Sliding Doors moments and decisions will lead you to wherever you are meant to be!
