Every week I bring you world leading experts and thinkers to give us new ideas, new tools, new support, new inspiration for our lives as mothers - we span everything from work to relationships to mental health and healing to parenting. And I am very happy you are here. Ok tell me if this resonates, you’re excited about the summer, your holiday or a beach day or BBQ with friends and then that awful voice starts - “you’re legs are too big to wear those shorts”, you can’t wear a bikini everyone will laugh or your arms are too wobbly for a vest top. Those awful, untrue thoughts that, let’s face it, can stop you really getting all the joy that you deserve this summer. And that’s what I want for you to have as much joy and fun as possible this summer….so I have bought on one of the best body confidence experts I know, Alex Light, she is a ST bestselling author of “You are not a before picture” and she co-hosts an amazing podcast with Emily Clarkson “should I delete that”. And trust me when I say this is the conversation you need to hear today - because if you’re ready to finally feel more peace with your body then this conversation is going to teach you exactly how to do that. I hope you love it.
