"I get that wow moment, every time..." How Megan has turned her passion into something for everyone... 15.06.2026

When Megan landed in my inbox asking if she could do my colours for me I was a little shocked, I'm definitely a 'micro' account so to be considered was amazing and of course, I just had to find out the story of how FJÓR Studio began. For anyone thinking of getting their colours done, do it. You know when you get the feeling where you just don't know what's 'you'...

"Chemo makes you a shell of the person you were..." Kelly shares her story with me, and how it's changed her outlook on the world. 11.05.2026

Sitting down with Kelly was a real eye opener for me personally, we are the same age, and have a daughter the same age too. So hearing how she coped with her cancer diagnosis personally, and navigating through this as a mum at the same time, was really inspiring.  Kelly spoke with strength, warmth and perspective, and despite everything she's faced, there's such a calmness around her.  Y...

"I'm proud of where I've got to, even if it was without the typical dreams you have as a little girl"... Charlene on how her passion for helping people, has become a full time business. 06.04.2026

I've actually known Charlene for many years(!) and watching her 'ideas' come to life has been inspiring.  She maybe doesn't have the typical 'lifestyle' most women in their 40s have. But it certainly hasn't held her back. You can find Charlene located on Queen Street in Peterhead, perhaps you've been feeling a little stuck in your work lately and wondered if...

Committed to living in the moment. Hannah Laidler talks about life as an SMA Mummy. 02.03.2026

Hannah and I found each other on social media a while back, and the more I watched, the more I loved seeing how committed she was to raising awareness of SMA. Yet remaining so present where she's needed most, with her boys.  In the week prior to this podcast release, Lawson celebrated his first birthday. A milestone that without treatment, he may never have reached.  It was a pleasure to sit...

"If you don't want it that much, you'll give up when things get hard." Lois, who has just recently launched her second business at 28, shares her story so far. 24.11.2025

I first came across Lois on Instagram not long after I'd started my own page, she was one of the first content creators I knew of to take on the wedding market, creating @thesocialyouseek and allowing couples to get all those BTS videos from their special day.  Fast forward a few years, and her business has evolved. After seeing a gap in the market, and with the help of her Dad, together they...

"Why should there be a bar in hairdressing?"... Danielle's mission to reach beyond the 'limit' hairdressers are led to believe is possible. 28.10.2025

I recently sat down with the lovely Danielle Polompo to learn about her journey from declaring herself homeless, to hairdressing mentor.  Danielle shared her very personal story with me, which she has given full permission for me to share. This is of course a cut down version and it goes without saying that she has been on some journey to get to where she is today.  Therapy, self development and a...

Sammy's business took a toll on both her physical and mental health, causing her to have a mini stroke. Here's how she overcame her business struggles. 29.09.2025

Once again, as a follower looking in from the outside, I had no idea what Sammy went through go get her businesses to where they are today.  Another example of how you never really know what a person has gone through until you sit down and have a conversation with them. Sammy's made a promise to herself to never be in that position again.  You can follow her story by searching @s.a.m.m.y.m.a....

"You have to take action for it to work..." Nicola on fighting darkness, finding strength and inspiring change. 08.09.2025

TRIGGER WARNING: This episode covers suicide and mental health struggles. If that's something you'd rather not to listen to right now, please feel free to skip and come back when you're ready.  I've known Nicola for many years now, and knew when I wanted to launch my own podcast, I'd be asking her to come on as a guest. Luckily she said yes, and we sat in my garden on poss...

"Failure was never an option..." How Sam turned her love for spray tanning into a golden legacy. 18.08.2025

I've been following Sam and her Brown Sugar journey for quite some time on my social pages and I knew in the early days of this podcast that she'd be someone I'd hope to sit down with some day.  Luckily for me, I managed to grab a spot in her calendar and hear her story so far.  Sam's social feed features some of the people she has been lucky to work with on her journey so far,...

"I have one goal professionally, to see children grow into in-tune adults." How being a chiropractor is so much more to Aurélie than cracks & clicks. 07.07.2025

I first met Aurélie two years ago when I took our youngest girl for a check up.  It wasn't the easiest day, hearing how her body wasn't aligned and how various things were out of place but Aurélie provided a safe space, support and a way forward for our now almost 4 year old whom I can barely keep up with on a day to day basis! I wanted to hear about her journey to where she is today and...

From viral moments to lasting growth, the journey that helped Sinead find her confidence. 16.06.2025

I came across Sinead's account whilst I was scrolling the day away one evening and have been a fan of her content since.  Who I watched online, was quite different to who walked through my door, and it just goes to show that there's so much more to a person than what we see 'on the grid'.  I loved meeting Sinead, and I found her story fascinating. She's a young woman who i...

How Fran's frontline role led her to sharing her first aid tips with the northeast. 26.05.2025

I first spoke with Fran over a year ago and a few months later, she joined me at an event. She spoke about First Aid, and everyone commented on how well she presented her information. Join me to hear Fran's story so far. If you'd like to find out more about the courses she offers, visit www.littlelivesfirstaid.co.uk Support the show Want to keep up to date with who's to come on futu...

From heels to home interiors, Nikki Brown shares her Westholme story! 05.05.2025

When I first had the idea of this podcast, I made a list in my notebook of who I'd love to have on as a guest. Nikki featured on there, and as a busy woman, I wasn't sure I'd get the time to sit down with her.  She was one of the first to agree and I was so grateful that she gave up two hours of her day to chat to me.  Join me to hear her story so far. Nikki is quite the woman, and...

An Introduction... 03.05.2025

What better way to kick off a Podcast than with an Introduction.  Maybe this is the first time you've came across my name, or you're eager to know what this Podcast is all about (after hearing about me talk about it for so long over on my socials!).  Hopefully this gives you a little insight, I'm so excited to begin this journey and meet lots of people along the way.  Support the sh...
