Viva Aikins is proof to never judge a book by its cover. Not only is she a London bus driver (in her dreams, she drives a carnival bus), but she was also homeless for 18 months on the streets of London.

In this episode, Viva shares:

- her incredible journey from homelessness to motherhood

- her current struggle with intense emotion and her three-pronged approach to working with it

- her in-the-moment solution to stop feeding the ego (it involves washing up liquid)

- the story of giving birth to her son, drug-free, claiming her own experience rather than being told what to feel and do by the medical profession.

This episode is a must-listen. Food for the soul.

Samantha Hannah shares beautiful stories from her life in this episode: giving birth to her newborn girl, her experience of an eating disorder, and finding herself in hospital after suffering a huge and unexpected panic attack.

Sam experienced a water birth with her first daughter. For a few seconds, the whole world stopped as she and her daughter had a moment of pure, incredible eye contact - and that moment has informed her ever since.

Samantha didn't know how to say no to work. So at the same time as bringing up two small children, being married and running a business, she took on a lot of TV work - and ended up collapsing, finding herself in hospital on a drip. The lesson? In her words, "I didn't listen to my joy."
