In this episode with Kathryn Monkcom, we tackle the taboo around career change and more importantly what can feel like career shame, if your career is less known and therefore less understood.

Kathryn is a digital marketer, careers coach and all-round internet person. Like me, Kathryn is the 3rd child who takes on life in an unconventional way and we unpick the power or should I say powerless opinions of others, the importance of being your own advocate, manifestation, and how when it comes to mental health, reaching out for help doesn’t always mean you will receive the help that you need.

A mashup of Season 1 covering dyslexia, money, millennials, comparison, workplace engagement, happiness, and men's mental health. This bonus episode was put together for the British Podcast Awards which are kind of a big deal. Simply being able to enter in the first year of the podcast launch feels like an achievement. Have a listen and keep your eyes peeled for the nominations announcement in May. Not to mention Season 2 around the corner! 

In light of International Women's Day #IWD2021 and the recent news on smear home test kits, this intimate episode will address taboos including smear tests, contraception, periods and how we don't talk about these topics enough - period.

This episode is the first of a solo series, I intended to create from me, your host, Tiffany Trethowan. I felt compelled to talk after what has been a big year for society, the podcast, and myself. You may find yourself relating to the topics I cover in my 2020 overview; launching the "Myself included" podcast, becoming a homeowner, discovering I'm dyslexic, finding closure on my late father...

If you find yourself thinking "I myself can relate to that", and intrigued to know more. I would love to know your feedback on this style of an episode. 

PS. I also give a big thanks to you lovely listeners for voting the podcast in the Listeners Choice Award for the Podcasting for Business Awards. 

Till then, take care, 

Tiff.

This months podcast episode is real, it's raw, it's authentic. I have the pleasure of speaking with Alexandra Galviz (Authentic Alex).

We cover an array of taboo topics, from being a perfectionist, becoming debt-free, going through a miscarriage to moving countries during a pandemic. I'd recommend grabbing a cosy hot drink, getting comfy and soaking it all up!

I will warn you now, the audio isn’t particularly great but I can guarantee it’s well worth a listen!
