Dial-A-Dilemma with Jules Von Hep

Well HELLO dear listener, it’s been a moment!  While 2025 will bring lots of exciting things for Dial-A-Dilemma, I wanted to swing by with a little festive treat! You might remember earlier this year I did a live recording of the podcast at a wonderful podcast festival called Cheerful Earful! I was joined in the room by some of you dream babes in the room AND the delightful Josh Smith!  Now this e...

Welcome back to The Dip!  This episode is all about changes; I don’t know about you, but I feel like there is a lot of change around at the moment, and I just wanted this to be a reminder that not all change has to feel bad or scary!  I’m away for a bit now, so there may possibly be some tipsy voicenote pods to come, but if not I’ll be back very soon!  And like always, I love to hear from you, I l...

Hello! I am back and there is SO much to catch up on. Firstly I must apologise for my absence last week (more on that in this pod!), and secondly I want to say thank you thank you thank you if you came down to the Dial-A-Dilemma live show a couple of weeks ago, it was the most fun! If you missed it, don’t fear, you’ll be able to hear the episode very soon!  Since we last spoke, I ran my very first...

Welcome to this episode of The Dip, where it is all starting to feel very Autumnal isn’t it?!  We’ve had World Mental Health Day this week, and really what I want to say to you today, is in the next week, try and find 3 things that you enjoy, and do them!  One of those things might be Dial-A-Dilemma’s first ever LIVE show, which is happening next week as part of Cheerful Earful podcast festival. T...

Today’s Dip is about TARTS! I had a day of being very much a non-chef in a chef environment yesterday, and I wanted to share it with you... I surprised myself so I hope that serves as a little bit of inspo for you!  In other news… do we need a goal setting episode of The Dip as we start thinking about next year? Talk to me! Anyway, just a reminder about Dial-A-Dilemma’s first ever LIVE show, happe...

Today’s episode of The Dip comes live and direct from a lovely staycation/working holiday in Cornwall, where I’ve been having a gorgeous time by the sea and tapping into my spiritual side, visiting stone circles and hanging out with Willow! So I really just wanted to say on this episode of The Dip that embracing change, or doing something different can be really good for the soul - so if something...

Welcome back to The Dip, where this week I'm coming at you with an update from LAST week's Friday 13th thoughts... I made some impulse decisions and I feel GREAT about them!

It’s a Friday Dip and this week, I am coming to you with a bit a diary entry from the last few days. I’ll give you the headlines: it involves me - VERY tired, a chatty taxi driver, and an amazing story about his previous job where he could make £4k in a DAY!  And really, the reason I’m telling you about this this incredible story, is just as a reminder about the power of amazing conversation, beca...

Welcome back to The Dip my loves, and after a few friend dilemmas over the last week or so, I wanted to chat to you about friendships and boundaries. It’s can be such a tough one can’t it?! But I wanted to remind you that if it doesn’t bring you peace, if it isn’t filling your cup, it’s okay to say no!  Of course, if you’ve got a friendship dilemma, or any other kind of dilemma, I am here for you!...

Welcome back to The Dip! It’s Friday and we’re getting ready for a sunny weekend and have I got a dilemma for you! This one involves a potentially toxic friend!

And remember, I still always w...

Alert the press - it’s a DOUBLE DIP WEEK!  In true summer holidays vibes, I’m here with 2 episodes of the The Dip a week for August - and I have been LOVING your feedback in the comments!  First of all - there’s justice for box wine(!) SO many people have been in touch about this, and I feel like maybe in another life I’d issue an apology, but that coupled with the blue bed linen, I’d have been ou...

Welcome back to the The Dip! Just a little Friday debrief! I LOVE how much you’ve been getting in touch about the husband on this week’s episode who leaves tiny amounts of food and puts them back in the fridge, hopefully they aren’t heading for divorce!
