Welcome to the last episode in Season 2 ofYou're Never The Only One. We are gutted to be bringing it to a close but we want to come back bigger and better for Season 3.As it's the last episode we wanted to make YOU guys the main event so we are sharing your biggest and baddest confessions and, in the style of the social media trend,we listen and we don't judge (much).From collecting dandruff and stashing it at work, to cutting up poos with a knife, you have laid your grubby souls bare and we are so grateful for it.While we may not be posting a weekly episode, we will be bringing you lots of instagram lives, MiniPods and maybe (maybe)some live events while we prep for Season 3.As ever, we'd love to hear from you.

Welcome back! You’re Never The Only One rolls on through January—yes, it’s still January—with the frenetic energy of two women attempting to juggle the gym, ditch the biscuits, and squeeze ‘new year, new me’ goals onto an already overloaded plate. This week, Cat takes on the world of mum bullies—because yes, they exist, and yes, they can be seriously damaging. Meanwhile, Emma asks: are we doing too much for our kids when it comes to chores? Are we raising capable adults or just very dependent houseguests? It’s a lively one, and we’d LOVE to hear your thoughts! We’d also LOVE to hear your thoughts on our upcoming topics. Emma: You’re Never The Only One…who has a sex cycle :  Do you go through phases of wanting it all the time—then suddenly, not at all? Is it hormones, stress, or just life getting in the way? How do you navigate these shifts in desire, and how does it affect your relationship? Cat: You’re Never The Only One…who’s husband refuses to get a vasotomy : Is this a battle you’ve faced too, or are you the one who ends up making all the family planning decisions? How do you feel about it—frustrated, resigned, or something else entirely? And how do you navigate the conversation when it feels like you're doing all the heavy lifting?

We’re back! You’re Never The Only One hits 2025 with all the energy of a couple of women in their forties, managing the peri-menopause, two children and a mental load the size of a small island, can muster. Which, surprisingly is quite a lot. This week Cat discusses the very real thing that is baby brain - she shares her own stories of post-natal discombobulation and shares stories from other women. Emma discusses the idea of pretty privilege - do you think your life has been easier because you’re conventionally pretty, or maybe it’s been harder because society doesn’t see you as conventionally attractive? It’s a big conversation but we’d LOVE to hear your own thoughts and feelings on everything we chatted about. We’d also LOVE to hear your thoughts on our upcoming topics.Emma: You’re Never The Only One…who does too much for their kids: are you guilty of choosing the path of least resistance and doing everything for your kids? Do you kids do chores? What are your expectations of how they help around the house? Cat: You’re Never The Only One…who’s been bullied by another mum: it’s easy to think that once we’re grown, the idea of playground bullying is in our past but for many mums, that’s just not true at all. Have you been bullied by another mum or group of mums? Contact YNTOO:Email: yourenevertheonlyone@gmail.comWhatsApp: 07457 402704

Episode 4 of You’re Never The Only One is the most emotional one yet. Inspired by Pamela Anderson and Drew Barrymore, we decided to do this one make-up free. For Cat, it was a bit uncomfortable but for Emma it was borderline traumatic. This episode dives into her feelings behind the dread of being seen without her make-up and yes…there are tears.   Cat talks money this week and discusses the impact of ADHD, your childhood, your marriage and your priorities when it comes to whether you are good or not with money.   They also discuss ‘munting’ which is probably the most traumatic part of it all.   If you want to get in touch to discuss anything on this episode or something we discussed on another episode, or if you just want to suggest a topic then you can email us at ⁠yourenevertheonlyone@gmail.com⁠ or leave a voicenote/message on 07457 402704.   If you are enjoying You’re Never The Only One and you want to support us, then please: Leave a 5* review wherever you listen to your podcasts.

In this episode of You’re Never The Only One, Cat and Emma get controversial. Cat thinks that Thelma & Louise is the worst film in the world and Emma gets grumpy about people who take pictures of their kids with vegetables (it’ll make sense when you listen to it), Christmas pyjamas and Boo-Boxes.  They may not get you on side with all their idea, but they will have you stitches.

In episode two of You’re Never The Only One, Emma and I deep dive into body confidence and discuss how honest we’re all being when it comes to the relationship with our bodies. Are we, as a generation, just too broken by social expectations and too old to overcome them? We also discuss how much sex every one is having and how much sex we think every one else is having. Cat gets honest, we discuss the difference between sex and intimacy and there’s a rant about rom-coms. As ever we take it to the streets and the WhatsApp voice notes to get your take on things too.
