  • Waves & Wisdom: Leading at the Edge with Jo Sherlock

    In this episode of Prim Rose Light, we sit down with Jo Sherlock—BBC’s Group Director of Commercial Rights—whose visionary leadership has shaped the media landscape across continents. From Universal+ to Peacock, from TikTok to Disney+, Jo has launched iconic brands, redefined audience engagement, and carved out bold new partnerships across digital, audio, and streaming. But beyond her commercial acumen lies a magnetic blend of wisdom, resilience, and oceanic serenity.

    We dive into a no-holds-barred conversation about leadership, authenticity, and evolving through life’s turning points. Jo shares her journey—from competitive surfing to corporate boardrooms—and unpacks how sound work, breathwork, and meditation have become pillars of her personal equilibrium.

    💬 What we explore in this episode:

    • What “winning” means at the top—and whether kindness has a place on the climb
    • How boundaries evolve with age, experience, and self-worth
    • Why being a feminist in leadership isn’t a label—it’s a practice
    • Emotional harmony and empathy in high-stakes careers
    • Navigating burnout, shifting identities, and staying engaged in an accelerated world
    • Meditation, GenAI, misinformation, and the power of clarity
    • Personal reflections, vulnerable truths, and staying sharp in media’s ever-changing tide


    This is not just a podcast about business—it’s about becoming. About choosing to lead with insight, stay fluid through the waves, and build a future rooted in creativity and connection. I hope you enjoy it.

    Sending you love, and light. Roshni x

  • A Prim Rose Light special - Two DEI powerhouses in the studio, Jess and Lisa spill the tea on menopause, feminism, workplace issues and more.

    Join us for an inspiring conversation with two remarkable women breaking barriers and championing change. Jess Rad, award-winning founder of The WomenHood and 2024 National Diversity Award winner, shares her powerful journey as a late-identified neurodivergent entrepreneur navigating premature menopause while closing gender gaps across women's health, finance, and workplace inclusion. Alongside her is Lisa Ardley-Price, a seasoned financial services lawyer, certified coach, and mentor who's spent over 15 years empowering women through leadership initiatives and holistic wellness approaches.

    Together, they tackle some of the tough questions that we are grappling with in society. These include, can women truly achieve work-life balance? What's behind the motherhood penalty versus the father bonus? How do we challenge negative perceptions of feminism while creating genuine workplace inclusion? From menopause as a workplace issue to financial independence, neurodiversity in professional settings, and the evolution of women's roles in society, this conversation doesn't shy away from the topics that matter most.

    Whether you're navigating your own career challenges, supporting women in your workplace, or simply want to understand the complex landscape facing women today, this episode offers practical insights, personal stories, and actionable advice that can inspire change.

  • Own your own childhood traumas and commit to healing, with Sarah and Roshni

    In this episode on Prim Rose Light I am delighted to have welcomed Sarah Boutros. Sarah and I spent some time talking about boundaries, what is that and why is it so important to put into effect to preserve your well-being. We also talk about emotional safety and how to self-sooth, what is the role of our ego, enmeshment, and how to develop compassion for our parents, who despite creating childhood trauma, did the best they could within their level of consciousness. We all have varying degrees of trauma to work through and in fact, "forgiveness" is a misnomer and gives us an entitlement that we have been victimised by our parents. Let's take the opportunity for our evolution and understand that by needing apologies and to forgive parents or others, only further sustains the illusion of victimhood that life is happening to me and not for me and my development. Hence, the opportunity for us is to rise above without any sense of blame and shame so that we lose the ego and surrender to the learnings, as an observer of life. This point was exceptionally well said by Peter Crone, who I absolutely love as a profoundly wise soul. This also chimes with the Vedantic philosophy which I so deeply resonate with. This concept of oneness and that we are all brothers and sisters, regardless of labels, colour or creed and that we are all part of the infinite.

    Sarah Boutros is a dedicated Relationship Coach based in Dubai, specializing in helping women

    build more secure and healthy relationships. With her own transformative
    journey going from people pleasing and toxic relationships to finding confidence and building a healthy, committed relationship - Sarah offers a
    unique and empathetic perspective to her process that is not only rooted in studies but also from her personal experiences. Sarah combines years of training with her personal experiences and insights gained through therapy, plant medicine + hosting personal development workshops for women to create a proven framework to help women level up themselves and their relationships. Her holistic approach addresses both the emotional and physical aspects of well-being,
    empowering clients to break free from limiting beliefs and create an
    environment that allows for healthy relationships to thrive in their life.

    If anyone would like to reach out to Sarah, please do give her a like, follow and subscribe and feel free to reach out to her with any questions on how she can help support you with your needs. The best way to reach out to her is on her IG:

  • How to manage hormonal imbalances and exploring masculine and feminine energies with Aarti Panday

    In this episode of Prim Rose Light, I was thrilled for all you wonderful listeners to hear from the inspiring and radically honest, Aarti Panday. Aarti is from Pune India and is a successful entrepreneur.

    Aarti is such a breath of fresh air and calls out some of the toxicity that we all put up with in society, right from the pains we suffer with within our bodies, which whilst may be common, are not normal. We also call out some of the old fashioned and I am going to be honest and say, nonsense that Asian/India culture expects of women, and how we can lean into the Shiva and Shakti elements of a heterosexual relationship to honour both parties. We are complementary, not competing and everyone would do well to remember that.

    Driven by passion, Aarti Pandey, 42-year-young and a renowned Hormonal Health Expert, is on an entrepreneurial mission to create a 'PCOS-FREE WORLD' without medication. With over a decade of expertise in health and lifestyle, she founded Freedom from PCOS in 2020, aiming to empower and enable 10 million working women to achieve hormonal balance naturally.

    Her journey began with her own struggles with hormonal imbalance postpartum, which fueled her empathy and determination to help others. Today, Aarti leads a vibrant community of over 50,000+ working women.

    Aarti’s initiative boasts 3,500+ natural hormonal balancing success stories and over 1,000 natural conceptions. As an award-winning wellness entrepreneur, nothing brings her more joy than seeing working women regain their health, productivity, and happiness, fulfilling their dreams as mothers and professionals.
