Hello and welcome back to the podcast and the final episode of season 4. To wrap up this season we’re discussing another important topic and one that isn’t always widely spoken about- IVF. There are 3.5 million people in the UK affected by infertility, yet most suffer in silence. Women often feel isolated and inadequate which is not helped by pictures of 'perfect motherhood' in the media and on social platforms. I’m joined today by YouTuber Freya Belle to discuss the subject. Freya is currently having IVF treatment herself and is here to share her experiences as well as raise awareness. So get comfortable, settle in and lets talk about IVF.

Hello and welcome back to the podcast. Today I’m joined by stand-up comedian Jack Campbell to talk on the topic of breakups... Breakups can be tough, heart breaking and downright rubbish but aside from that they can also be bloody hilarious! Listen as we to discuss some of the most cringe worthy but hilarious things about breakups in the hope that it’ll give you a laugh and if you’re going through a breakup right now? Well it might even cheer you. So lets crack open some bubbly and begin! Tips for listeners- what NOT to do: - Don’t send “accidental texts” or any kind of texts like Kat has done, in fact do not engage with them at all - Don’t sleep with them once you’ve broken up - Dating immediately after is not the one - Any feelings/ ideas you get when you’re angry- don’t act on them if you can. If you feel the same once you’re calmer then go for it. - Try not to be too hard on yourself and if you do end up doing something stupid and cringe? Well it just makes for a good story in the future and you’ll look back and laugh.
