I'm very excited to introduce you to my new best friend, Charlie Craggs. I echo British Vogues statement that Charlie is "the voice of a community." She's also an activist, author and actress and one of the most positive humans I've ever known. Her commitment to supporting the trans community is inspirational.

Francesca Oddie is hands down one of my favourite people. She's on my dinner party guestlist alongside Stephen Fry, Christopher Nolan and George R. R. Martin. I could ask her a million questions and never get bored. Francesca's a phenomenal astrologer, who as you'll hear in this episode, takes astrology from something whimsical and make believe, to something that has substance and practicality, enabling it to become a tool we can use for our own self development. She's also one of the experts on Written In The Stars, a new dating show on Discovery+. Enjoy!
