Irregular Bitches

Lizi Jackson-Barrett is a Body Confidence Expert, Ted Speaker and best-selling author.

Through her experience with alopecia she has transformed her life, and that of others and now she shares her 'lightbulb moment' discoveries with us.

We learned:

How to parent our children in a world where the media expects a certain image of unattainable, "Kardashian-like" perfection.

What we would do if we were more confident?

Do other people really notice the things we don't like about ourselves?

How to stop being unkind to ourselves and about ourselves..

AND...THE ONE WORD THAT COULD TRANSFORM YOUR CONFIDENCE, YOUR WORK AND INDEED, YOUR LIFE.

You can find all things Lizi at lizijacksonbarrett.com

Karen Arthur is a rock star.

She talks about her midlife journey from Teacher to Fashion Designer via a load of obstacles/sh1t obviously - who doesn’t! How she has learned to put herself first and what she does to achieve that. Why is the standard image of women in Menopause a white, grey haired old lady with a fan?! Strategies for dealing with the Empty Nest. The power of stretching. And having gratitude and noticing the little things.

It’s all about the CBD oil and all the different derivatives this episode. Sarah and Louise speak to Geshe from Otherside Cannabinoid Dispensary and Nina from Peace and Grow.

We learned about:

What CBD and CBG are

What they do

What benefits they give

And how it’s not going to make you high - you have to go elsewhere for that!

Sarah uses the word Stoner a lot which the industry is trying to educate us away from as its factually incorrect! No Sarah it’s not going to give the munchies.

What a powerhouse Ellie Waters is! We learned loads about how to take charge of ourselves and the support that we need. Ellie was diagnosed with an extremely aggressive form of cancer aged 14 and her treatment led her to be forced into early menopause. In this episode, we hear not only about her experience but maybe more importantly how proactive she has been in dealing with early menopause. Searching for information and ultimately creating it with Dr. Louise Newson.

Her POSITIVITY is infectious!

This episode’s Donna ASHWORTH poem is Take Charge Ladies. Her book ‘To the Women’ is available on Amazon.

Is taking HRT not an option for you?

If so then we have just the woman for you!

Amanda Thebe is a PT, Nutritionist, Podcaster, and author of the fabulously readable Menopocalypse.

HRT did not agree with her and she has gone about educating herself, and now the Irregular Bitches, as to how to flourish in Midlife.

In this episode she covers;-

How to eat

How to move

How to manage stress

And how to think

As you will hear she is very relatable and down to earth so didn’t make us feel bad about ourselves.

And watch out Bitches the Irregular Bitches sticker chart is a thing and we will do our very best to make it happen. You heard it here first!
