This was originally released July 2023.

Welcome to part 1 of the SCC mini series on body confidence - discussing all elements of body confidence and how to cultivate it. Lauren and Nicole will be delving into their own body image and going through practices to bring you insights and honesty in what helps break them away from the societal messaging that we need to look a certain way in order to feel worthy. We hope you get a lot from it and we hope to do justice to this important topic. The ladies try out Nude Mirror Gazing with mixed results...

This week the special guest expert is Carys Whittaker making her first ever podcast appearance. Carys is a mum of two living in Cardiff. For the past 7 years she has worked on social media and on her ongoing business projects alongside her husband James. Carys has become a key name on social media for her popular daily lifestyle content, gaining over 1 million followers across her channels. Starting out as a fitness influencer, she realised the lifestyle she was leading was having a negative impact on her mental health, and her content has followed her journey through weight gain and body changes. Consequently she is now one of the leading figures promoting body positivity online. She also shares content around family life, fashion, self-love, house renovations and much more; but most importantly to her, she shares her ongoing journey with self love, self care and body confidence. @carys.whittaker

This was originally released on June 2024 but it is still such a big subject we wanted to remind you (and oursleves) to wear the shorts! Enjoy

Summer is finally here and that means getting our summer clothes out. Sweaty Betty’s “Wear the damn shorts”campaign encourages women to forget worrying about the appearance of their legs and invest in a pair of shorts so that they can exercise in both comfort and style. But why are so many women still so reluctant to do it? We discuss it all and offer up some tips for those who don't feel confident to do so.

It’s the last episode before we take a break for summer and we’re going out in a haze of sunshine, rebellion, and possibly crisps for dinner. Because summer has a sneaky way of waking up a part of us that goes into hibernation the rest of the year;  the spontaneous one, the barefoot one, the one who remembers how to just be, instead of constantly doing.

In this episode, we’re asking: What version of you emerges when the sun’s out and the pressure’s off? Is it your fun side? Your libido? Your ability to sit in a deckchair without feeling like you should be folding laundry? We’re talking summer selves, seasonal magic, and how to hang onto a little bit of that barefoot energy even when September rolls in.

Have a lovely summer clubbers

Whether it’s a broken promise, a plan that fell through, or just life not meeting expectations, today’s episode is all about dealing with disappointment. In today’s show Lauren & Nicole chat about how disappointment can hit us hard, how it can affect us in a negative way and linger if we don’t have healthy ways of processing it and share their own examples of when they have felt disappointed. So today, we’re unpacking why we feel it, what to do when others let us down, and strategies to help without spiraling into negativity. Plus they teach the clubbers their F.A.C.T acronym for how to cope when disappointment strikes.

Today we are tackling the taboo subject of body hair. Let’s be real—body hair is one of those things that can bring up all sorts of feelings. For some it’s a mild annoyance. For others, it’s a deep source of shame. And for many, it’s something we’ve spent years trying to manage, remove, hide, or completely erase.

But here’s the thing: body hair isn’t a problem to fix. It’s just… body hair. So why is it such a loaded topic? We’ll be exploring the personal and cultural baggage around body hair, how our attitudes have changed and what it means to reclaim our bodies. 

Thank you so much to our expert guest today Laura Schubert https://furyou.com/products/fur-oil?srsltid=AfmBOoq0wxMtPNyu77I25erwNwJ87xJo1MGMY26fXuSFV6IXu7zBy2J0

Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussion of death, pet loss and grief. Listener discretion is advised. 

This week we’re talking about the sensitive subject of pet loss and the profound grief that comes with saying goodbye to our beloved furry companions. Lauren shares her personal experience of having to say goodbye to her 16yr old Spaniel, Barker this week and we needed plenty of tissues! Whether you’ve also had to say goodbye to a pet recently, lost one suddenly, or you're still grieving years later, this episode is for you. We know firsthand the deep bond we have with our pets and how integral they are to our lives. 

We discuss various strategies for how to cope, helpful and unhelpful things to say to someone who is grieving and also offer guidance on moving forwards.
