Description

Welcome back! And we're back with a brilliant episode covering so much of motherhood and womanhood with the wonderful actor-turned-coach, podcaster, and co-founder of the feminist mental health platform Women Are Mad, Salima Saxton. In this episode we explore Salima’s journey from acting to coaching, the complex dynamics of her multi-heritage background, and how motherhood profoundly shaped her professional path. Salima shares candid insights about how she went from identifying as 'not an angry person' to recognising rage as an emotion to get in touch with her own, and the transformative power of self-reflection as part of that process. This episode delves into overcoming anxiety, the intersection of race and career, and the audacity to pursue uncharted paths. So much to reflect on as we head into the New Year with fresh energy. Enjoy.
