Show Notes
In a totally unplanned episode, I discuss the differences I’ve noticed between British girls and American girls in how he approach our insecurities - and my theories about why British women are more self deprecating.
Hint: It’s not that we hate ourselves more, it’s that we’re not given cultural permission to want MORE - and that we’re encouraged socially to be humble, small and hate ourselves as a form of proving our virtue.
Let’s dive IN!

Today we’re talking about what happens when you actually let the universe fucking surprise you. We’re talking about synchronicity, self-belief, and why you don’t need to pretend you’re insecure just to make other people feel comfortable around you. This is for the woman who is ready to stop making herself smaller, more relatable and more digestible - and start trusting that life might actually want to SPOIL her. Plus, I tell you about the magical encounter I had with a stranger outside a coffee shop in LA, why I want to be more like Samantha Jones, and what happens when you stop trying to plan every single detail of how your life unfolds. _________
Today we’re talking about becoming a hot, disgusting woman. And by disgusting, I mean WANTING things. Wanting attention. Wanting money. Wanting sex. Wanting romance. Wanting MORE. And not needing to dress every desire up in some morally acceptable reason before you let yourself have it This is for the woman who is tired of intellectualising her desires and is ready to actually LIVE them. Plus, I get into feminism, perfectionism, kink, ambition, and why wanting more doesn’t mean you’re ungrateful for what you already have.
Today I tell you the MAGICAL story of how the idea for my new book first came to me when I was 19, why I had to wait almost a decade to write it, and the magical encounter in a park that made me realise it was finally time!
Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do with a dream is shut the fuck up about it!!! Today I’m sharing with you a little about the project I’ve been working on secretly for the last year, and why sometimes the most powerful way to get what you want is to keep it close to your chest and not tell anyone about it… This is for anyone who hasn’t been able to create projects or get anything off the ground, or for those who’ve always felt crazy because they like to be so secretive with their ideas. Tune in next week for the full announcement!
