Ruby Warrington | Do you want children? And other triggering questions...

Ruby Warrington is an author, journalist and publishing consultant and as she shares her life lessons with us in this episode, we linger on the topic of her new book Women Without Kids. Ruby and I are of a similar age and neither of us have, or want, children and that's something which still, in some circles, makes us a bit weird. It shouldn't though and hopefully being open and honest on this topic is the way we remove the taboo.Ruby's book Women Without Kids is available now.To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Hey!

Dr Philippa Kaye | Surviving cancer, what NOT to say to someone with a cancer diagnosis and the need to be liked.

Dr Philippa Kaye is a familiar face on British television thanks to her thorough clinics on daytime TV offering health advice. She has also gone 'viral' online for making sometimes taboo health subjects accessible and easily understood. In this episode, Philippa shares her life lessons with me and how being diagnosed with cancer, and having to have major surgeries during the very first lockdown, impacted her physical, mental and emotional health.Her account of being alone in intensive care is heartbreaking but the lessons she's learned, the resolve she's found and how she communicated her situation to her three young children is truly inspiring.I challenge you not to cry during this conversation, such is Philippa's honesty on a sometimes difficult-to-navigate topic.To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Hey!

Bullet Points | Are you being a bit sensitive?

It's never a compliment, right? If someone calls you sensitive it's because they see it as a flaw in your character or an inability to cope or process life as it happens.

Solo Show | How I Lost the Last 10lbs.

How have I lost weight? This is something that people have been messaging me about for months and it felt like the right time, and the right place, to share a little more detail. I know some of you have noticed my weight loss on Instagram and I wanted to share the method I used. I also want to stress that I was already delighted with my progress. The underlying issue with all of this was my issues with food and the fact that I am recovering from something resembling a binge eating disorder. I am not a nutritionist and this podcast shouldn't be taken as me telling you what to do, it is merely my account of what I have done and what has worked for me.I am always happy to discuss in DMs or by email - or my favourite place is the Facebook group - if you want to ask me anything more specific.To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Hey!
