    Getting on top of your health and fitness goals in 2025 | The Emma Guns Show


    πŸ“ I did a work out every day in December 2024, for no other reason than to maintain a grip on some sort of schedule in a month where everything free-wheels. Lots of people have been asking me about it and asking how they can find the motivation to get into a fitness and health routine, so in this episode, I share what has helped me.


    πŸ“° I also take the time to discuss the excellent The Inkey List Ectoin Hydro-Barrier Serum, Β£15, that I devoted this Substack article.


    πŸ‘— In this video I'm wearing:


    Albaray Cosy Jumper, Β£69


    Free People Movement Ribbed Long-Sleeve Baby Tee, Β£44.

    Bullet Points | The Loco-Notion, Meghan Markle's Return and another reason to love Gavin & Stacey | The Emma Guns Show


    πŸ“ I've been trying to get my head around Notion, an app that allows you to organise your thoughts into as online space that's - hopefully - easy to view, simple to navigate and helps you stay on top of your to-do lists and on track with your goals. It has not been an easy ride...

    Try Notion for yourself here: https://www.notion.com/


    πŸ˜‡ With the news that Meghan Markle is making a return to Instagram via her new account @meghan (https://www.instagram.com/meghan/) there will undoubtedly be an onslaught of negativity from those people who have already decided they don't like her. But, as I was discussing with family recently, it's always important to find something nice to say about someone...


    The social media expert I mentioned was @phoebeparke (https://www.instagram.com/phoebeparke/) and here's the link to the post where she deconstructed why Meghan's social media return was so smart: Meghan's Social Media Return Deconstructed.


    πŸ™πŸΌ Gavin and Stacey aired its finale on Christmas Day in the UK and here's another reason why this 17-year-long series has been so special.


    πŸ‘— In this video I'm wearing:

    Marks & Spencer Supersoft Crew Neck Jumper, Β£17.50 in Light Natural.


    🧹 The Ultenic Robot Vacuum, £179.

    Setting achievable goals in 2025 | The Emma Guns Show


    πŸ“ It's time to talk goal-setting but not the wishy-washy kind, the kind where you have to look at your own part in the things that have gone wrong and how to avoid making those same mistakes again.


    πŸ“° Here's the link to Notion, which I'm determined to get the hang of to help me smash my goals in 2025.


    πŸ‘— In this video I'm wearing:

    Uniqlo Crew Neck T-Shirt, Β£14.90.

  • When you're on the wrong side of history...

    Let's park goal-setting until next week, but while it's fresh in the news, I wanted to talk about the current story surrounding Blake Lively's lawsuit against her It Ends with Us director Justin Baldoni. Not about the case specifically but what it throws up about how women are treated in the media and how quick people are to believe the worst of them. And how even I fell foul of this alleged smear campaign.


    I'm wearing the WAT the Brand Hoody and Joggers

    Cubitts Glasses in the style Merlin

    Hourglass Veil Hydrating Skin Tint

    Victoria Beckham Beauty Reflect Highlighter in Amber

    Sweed Cloud Mascara in Brown

  • Bullet Points | I Can't Make this Mistake Again.

    I am the first to poo-poo manifestation and all the plinky-plonky performative nonsense that sells itself as 'self help' but I've come to realise that goal-setting, particularly after a challenging 2024 might be a very smart move on my part. But where do I begin..?

  • When 'good' podcasts go 'bad'...

    I wrote a feature on my Substack last week in response to the BBC investigation, which found that Steven Bartlett's Diary of a CEO podcast was responsible for 'amplifying harmful health information'. The response to that piece has been huge and I've expanded on my thoughts and feelings here.

  • Bullet Points | The Gregg Wallace Scandal, London's Phone Thieves & How to extend your attention span.

    In this week's Bullet Points, I discuss the Gregg Wallace scandal, a huge topic in the UK this week. I share my thoughts having worked with Gregg previously.


    As London is 'crowned' the Phone Theft Capital of Europe, I share how a trip to London changed my perspective and how it has influenced my behaviour in the city.


    Finally, I share a useful hack that might help you focus more. Johann Hari and I discussed attention span on the show a while ago and you can listen to that here:

  • The Power of a 'reframe', what depression looks like and ridiculous trends...

    The power of the re-frame is something to explore in this episode of the podcast. I've set the bar quite high for myself in the past, especially professionally, and this year has been about relaxing that tight grip on 'success'. However, it has been a puzzler simply because a lot of the positive steps I've taken to relieve some of that pressure are the things I'd do when I was struggling with depression. In one instance, it allowed me to withdraw from the world, in another it's allowed me to show up as a better version of myself. So what's the difference?


    Also in this episode, I ponder whether being too self-aware is a fast-track to anxiety and I lose the pot over the current 'it' body cream.
