Description

Could your pen, keys, or handbag actually save your life? In this episode, Julie Waite (women's safety advocate) and Dene Josham (self-defence expert and former celebrity bodyguard) explore the power of improvised weapons — everyday items you already carry that can help protect you in a self-defence situation.

From street encounters to terror attacks and home invasions, they explain how mindset, awareness, and quick thinking matter more than brute strength. You’ll learn how to identify, practise with, and legally use improvised tools to stay safe.

“Self-defence isn’t about what you carry — it’s about how you think.” – Dene Josham
