Welcome back to episode 18 of The Outspoken! This week, I’m joined by Nicola, a body confidence coach I connected with after one of my handstand workshops in Liverpool.

We’re diving into her journey of overcoming disordered eating, building self-esteem, and breaking free from the pressures of the fitness industry. From the mental and physical challenges of body image to finding joy in movement and coaching others, Nicola shares her inspiring story.

Along the way, we chat about the emotional side of fitness, the power of NLP, and even her creative project—a body confidence tarot card deck launching soon. It’s all about embracing imperfection, challenging comfort zones, and learning to see ourselves in a new light. Let’s dive in!

Welcome back to episode 16 of The Outspoken 30s! This time, I’m diving into the beautiful chaos of life in my 30s—where nostalgia meets the challenges of daily adulting.

Today, I’m sharing my reflections on everything from childhood memories of the 90s and early 2000s to my ongoing journey with handstands, creative projects, and the occasional cardio struggle. Life has been a whirlwind, but it’s in the little moments of clumsiness and self-discovery where I find the most joy.

Join me as I navigate the highs and lows, reminisce about simpler times, and embrace the quirks of balancing work, play, and self-care. Let’s laugh, reflect, and enjoy the ride together!

Welcome back to episode 15 of "On the Road Ramblings"! I'm back, and this time, I'm behind the wheel, ready to share more tales . Today, I'm taking you through my recent spa day escapade with my mum, from facials to poolside lounging—it's a journey filled with relaxation and unexpected twists.

As I navigate the winding roads, I reflect on the challenges of mastering handstands and the joys of indulging in some much-needed self-care. From cake selections to impromptu flexibility sessions, every moment is an opportunity for laughter and growth.

Join me as I recount the highlights of my spa day adventure and share insights on navigating the ups and downs of adulting. Life's too short to miss out on the simple pleasures, so buckle up and enjoy the ride!

Welcome back to episode 14 of The Outspoken 30s. After a month-long hiatus, I'm back with more chatter! Today, I'm diving into my latest adventure: coaching handstands to gymnast. It's been a whirlwind of excitement and challenges, but seeing these little ones light up when they conquer a handstand makes it all worth it.

Coaching has taught me the importance of genuine conversations and setting boundaries, even if it means disappointing others occasionally. And let's not forget the ups and downs of adulting—dating woes, comparison traps, you name it. But hey, being single for six years has taught me self-love and independence.

So here's to embracing the journey, the challenges, and the occasional Irish accent after a few too many drinks. Life's too short to take ourselves too seriously, right?

Welcome to the 10th episode of The Outspoken podcast. It's been a while, but life has been hectic. I'm back now, promising consistency. Since the last episode, I've had some great experiences, from nights out with friends to surfing in Cornwall. I've also started my own handstand classes, which has been both exciting and challenging. Feedback has been positive, but I still struggle to accept compliments.

In terms of fitness, my training is going well, thanks to my coach, and I've learned to prioritize experiences over strict dieting. I've also developed a love for iced coffee, which keeps me going during busy days.

I've recently discovered some handy iPhone features, like creating lists in Notes and a quicker way to type with one finger. I'm eager to bring more guests onto the podcast, so stay tuned for some interesting discussions. Thanks for tuning in!
