Life, Actually with Rebekah Kane - podcast cover

Life, Actually with Rebekah Kane

Life, Actually is a lifestyle podcast created in 2022 by Belfast-born Londoner & manifestation junkie Rebekah Kane. 

Weekly episodes discuss manifesting, adulting, relationships, friendships, mindfulness & wellness, money, self-help & personal development, and all the other things we’ve got to overcome in our twenties.

Each week we highlight a new topic of figuring-it-out, usually with a focus on get-out-of-your-own-way and a sprinkle of Irish humor. 

If you are bored of your daily grind, need a push to go after your goals and build your dream life and you are looking for a friend to join you on that journey, then this is the podcast for you.

Follow Rebekah as she explores adulthood and life in each episode, to see for yourself how life actually can be pretty wonderful.
