What She Said episodes

  • Lucy Aitkenread | "We exist in a school free paradigm"
    This week I explore the concept of life without school with author, educator and activist Lucy Aitkenread.
    We talk about the GAME CHANGING parenting concept of Sites of Mutual Fulfilment and why we absolutely HAVE to put ourselves first and chase those endorphins as parents.
    We also discuss privilege within home education and how to make those spaces safe for marginalised folk.
    ** please note that we recorded this prior to the deaths of George Floyd, Belly Mujinja and Breanna Taylor (amongst others) so don't discuss it/the Black Lives Matter protests **
    It's a brilliant episode and I hope you enjoy it!

  • Nova Reid | "Brace yourselves, there's a truth bomb coming"
    This week I chat with Anti-Racism campaigner and speaker Nova Reid. We talked about how she came to her work in anti-racism, the reason and truth behind why we all need to acknowledge our privilege, get uncomfortable and start challenging our inner 'ism's.

  • Rabya Lomas | Talking White Supremacy

    Full show notes at https://lucylucraft.com/s4e14

    Today’s episode is a JUICY one, as ever and it’s particularly brilliant because it’s with one of my very favourite IN REAL LIFE friends Rabya Lomas aka She Flourished. Rabya is a beautiful writer and photographer creating playful, whimsical and political content on her blog and Instagram. 

    We chatted about Rabya’s experience of covert racism, how to be a good ally, white supremacy and *that* slow fashion takedown. Show it some love over on Instagram if you enjoyed the episode - it’s potentially the last ever episode so I’d love to go out with a bang!

  • Sarah Starrs | How to Become a Virtual Assistant
    Find full show notes at lucylucraft.com/s4e12
    In this week's episode I chat with Sarah Starrs about how she became such a kick-ass virtual assistant (VA), navigating childcare, beating the ups and downs of freelancer income.
    She started out blogging and creating courses/coaching before burning out and taking a meander into nannying (we talk about that more here) before she settled into VA life.
    Sarah is a truly incredible VA and I love how she gets over the feast to famine using client retainers. It's my usual no-BS chat with some excellent and seriously practical advice thrown in for anyone who wants to hire a VA or become one.
    Hope you enjoy the episode!

  • How I Juggle Work Motherhood
    Hey hey!
    This has been a little hair-raising....I just recorded Monday's episode and it is FRIDAY. Eeek. I'm usually way more organised than this!
    Anyway this week is all about how I juggle work and motherhood, which, lemme tell you is an oxymoron because I definitely don't do it well!
