Send us a textOn today's minisode, I'm talking about those feelings of being 'less than' that sometimes creep into our minds, even when we're happily living our single, childfree lives.I'm also talking about how, no matter how secure we might be in who we are, being around certain people from our past can make us regress back to our 17-year-old selves. The truth is that the power of the societal narrative around single women means that we may never be able to fully shake off the feeling ...

Send us a textOn this week's Thursday Thoughts, Polly and I are talking about embracing ageing.It’s time to change the narrative - and let’s face it, we’re talking about women here - that you are ‘past your sell by date’ once you hit 40, 50, 60 etc.The truth is that age brings with it so many wonderful things, not least confidence, wisdom and experience.
