Hey Podulters! Welcome to Adulting 2.0: The Timelines.
This week I’m talking to Shelley Syme. Shelley’s timeline completely shifted when at the age of 29 she found a lump under her armpit and was subsequently diagnosed with breast cancer, which had spread to her lymph nodes as well, which led her to make the brave decision to have a mastectomy. We connected online after Shelley wrote a gorgeous poem about her feelings towards her breasts on a post I did for Breast Cancer Awareness month.
We talk about finding that life changing lump, reframing your mentality around your body, dating, not wanting children and her love of snooker.

Hey Podulters! Apologies for the sporadic episodesi I hope you will forgive me. In this week’s episode, I speak to Cristina Lopez. Cristina is a neuro-performance coach, living and working in Madrid. I first met her about 8 or 9 years ago when I went travelling, and we reminisce a bit in the episode. We discuss the three things she wishes she had been taught in school, namely; learning how to heal and work with nature / speaking to nature, the philosophy of yoga and how to leverage your own personal assets to create personal wealth/ learn how to be a smart investor over a corporate agent. I really hope you enjoy! Oenone

Hey podulters, in this episode I speak to Jason Okundaye. Jason is a journalist and he is currently writing his first book, Revolutionary Acts : Stories of Love, Brotherhood, and Resilience from Black Gay Britain . We discuss the three things he wishes he had been taught in school, namely social history, media and media ethics, and public speaking. At the end we speak about identity politics and how our attitudes towards it and the ‘privilege’ discourse are changing, which I personally think is quite an interesting topic. Especially as this podcast has centred itself around those things for a while so it’s always refreshing and interesting when you find yourself growing out of - or growing beyond - an idea! I hope you enjoy listening (can’t believe this is episode 101) as always please do rate, review and subscribe!

Hey Podulters! We made it to 100 episodes, I can't quite believe it. That's over 6018 minutes (I could be wrong here, but I tried to add it up), and so so close to 4 million downloads. To celebrate this, I thought I would do a solo episode about what I've learnt doing this podcast over the past three years. It took me a few goes (APOLOGIES FOR THE DELAY), but hopefully this one sort of encapsulates just how transformative this podcast has been for me. I am sure there are a million things I have forgotten to mention, but 100 episodes is a lot! Thank you all so much for listening, thank you to all of my guests, and thank you as well to Acast, I hope you enjoy mwah xxx

Hey Podulters! In this week’s episode I speak to Rutger Bregman, he is a historian, author and speaker. I’m sure if you listen to the podcast regularly you will have heard me mention his book, Utopia For Realists, multiple times. Unlike pretty much anyone else I have spoken to, Rutger said he was pretty happy with everything he had learnt in school 🤣 but that’s mostly because he doesn’t really think our schools are fit for purpose as they are. We discuss following your intuition, the importance of diverse communities and why humans are actually really kind, deep down. I really enjoyed recording this episode and I hope you enjoy listening, Rutger’s latest book, Humankind, covers a lot of what we talk about in the episode! As always please do rate, review and subscribe 💜

Hey Podulters, I hope you’re well! In this week's episode I speak to the politics editor at gal-dem, Moya Lothian-McLean. We discuss which three things she wishes she had been taught in school, namely political philosophy, addiction and achievement myths. We talk a lot about social media, and the way that online discourse often dominates our perception of world events and compels us to form opinions on everything all the time, perhaps to our detriment. We also speak about fitness addiction, body image and dieting - so content warning for that. I hope you enjoy, as always please do rate, review and subscribe.

Hello Podulters, It’s been a very long time no speak🥲. I’m so pleased to be back with season 10 👀of Adulting! Wow! It was the three year anniversary of the podcast the other day, and it’s so exciting to see how far we’ve come. In fact, I think today’s conversation with Matt Haig is quite reflective of that. We start to push back a little against the pervasive and negative aspects of ‘woke culture’ - for want of a better phrase - and that’s looking like a recurring theme this season. This is interesting to me, because of course Adulting as a podcast is all about becoming more knowledgeable, more understanding and less ignorant. But I do wonder if maybe we have lost sight of that goal more broadly, especially when using the term 'woke'? I’m still asking people what three things they wish they had been taught in school, and Matt’s are Philosophy, coping with adversity and self acceptance. His book, The Midnight Library, which I absolutely loved, is now out in paperback... incase you were looking for your next read. I really hope you enjoy listening and I’m so glad to be back! Xx

Hey Podulters, I hope you're well! This special bonus episode of Adulting is sponsored by Oatly, my absolute favourite dairy alternative drink! As this is a special episode, we also have a special guest; Namely, my dad. He is a consultant cardiologist, car enthusiast and very amateur rugby player. We discuss the impact of food on the climate crisis, what his relationship with food was like when he was younger and the generational differences between him and I, when it comes to attitudes towards sustainability. This was so much fun to record and I think I learnt more from my dad than he did from me! I hope you enjoy :) If you want to get chatting to your dad - or any family member for that matter - about making sustainable swaps, visit oatly.com/helpdad.

Hey Podulters, this is the last episode of season 9!! I’ve absolutely loved this season - I think it might just be one of my favourites yet - and this episode is definitely a fab one to end on. I speak to Nadia Whittome, Labour mp for Nottingham East who also happened to become the youngest MP at 23, in 2019. We discuss the three things she wishes she had been taught in school, namely, being taught in a way that she learns, a fuller curriculum; including black history, the climate crisis and trade unionism, as well as how to cook properly. I really hope you enjoy, and as always thank you so much for listening x
