I talk about my personal experience of homelessness and also record live from the homeless world cup in Cardiff in the debate session with host Abigail Scott Paul from the Joseph Rowntree Foundation and authors Mahsuda Snaith and Kerry Hudson who have both written books about homelessness and poverty. The Homeless world cup is an annual event that welcomes over 500 players from 50 different countries to compete and Finland is the host nation for 2020.

For week one of the birth stories series my friend Alicea joins me to talk about her two very different births. Both babies were over 9lbs but her first birth was a lot harder than her 2nd birth experience. Induction took a long time ending in an assisted forceps delivery.

This birth stories series is intended to highlight that birth is a very individual and unique experience. Women are often fed lines such as 'as long as the baby is ok that's all that matters.' but it's not all that matters. Mum's health matters too. I hope listening to these birth stories empowers you to take rightful control over your birth choices and to have a positive birth experience.

An interview with Charlotte from Welsh Mummy Blogs. Charlotte talks about her personal experience of post natal psychosis, bipolar, and post natal anxiety and depression.

Episode 2 of the Kate Lili podcast is all about personal motivation. Why do some people seem to be more motivated than others? Is it a quality we are born with or a skill we learn?

This episode is time limited. As I'm not happy with the recording quality (background rain) I will be deleting this episode in the future!

Please listen and leave a review on itunes. Thanks!

The first time in my life I have dealt with prejudice is when I came out to my friends and family as a Christian. In this, my first episode of my podcast, I deep dive into why I have so much love for the gays and why I am quitting church.

Hi this is my first ever Spreaker broadcast. I've just downloaded Spreaker and I've no idea what I'm doing so I took the only option I know - jump in head first! Welcome to my podcast. :)
