#PODMAS Day 6: Failure
Today's episode was recorded before the cluster-f@@k that is my migration to Squarespace. So when I talk about how: "I am an idiot" for some of the issues, you can now safely assume it's Squarespace who are said idiotus maximus. Perhaps I'll write about why you shouldn't switch from Wordpress to Squarespace because you've been brainwashed by every damn podcast you listen to. Thoughts?!

My Blogging Journey
In this week's episode the wonderful, the tables were turned and the wonderful Sam Sparrow interviewed me! I have to admit I felt pretty awkward (which you can probably tell) and it made me realise how hard it must be for some of my guests! SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST I guess I took it for granted people enjoy sharing their story, but it's not always that simple. So much of our self-worth is wrapped around not being a show-off, not being too 'loud' so when we are asked to share accolades we get a l...

Jessica Rose Williams | How to Avoid Comparison
Welcome to EPISODE 16 . These past few weeks have seen me burnout, want to give up before starting afresh with a new, kick ass plan. Thanks to lots of people (including myself!) but also thanks to Jessica. When I recorded this episode I was feeling really low, overwhelmed and lost. I struck up an Insta-friendship with Jessica who, perhaps without even realising, transformed me. Anyway, all that's to say this is a great episode and one that's a little bit close to my heart! Hope you love it, and ...

Hola! It's EPISODE 13. Which means I've been podcasting for 13 weeks. Obviously. The reason that's crazy to me is that as I write this, my baby is 20 weeks......that's crazy.

Before we jump in, I wanted to just let you know I've decided to take a break after episode 22, which will air on the 20th November . I haven't decided how long I'll take, but it feels right to break for Christmas...

Giulia Mule | Food Photography & Creating For Good With
My first slight podcasting-related drama! I mean, not really. But it was all a little fraught this week as I had a brilliant chat with my lovely friend Giulia then realised I needed to publish the episode today, instead of two months time because I really wanted to promote something that is happening in a couple of weeks!! That meant recording a pre-roll, writing show notes and turning around the edit before uploading it all to my podcast host in less than a week. This actually isn't a big deal ...

Beverley Reinemann | Using Instagram Stories effectively
Meeting people online is weird to 'normal' people I think. But for us bloggers? We are so used to being online all day. errr'y day finding a tribe out there and making connections on social media is completely normal.

But I did the next best thing which was to have a natter on Skype. I'm hoping the audio quality of these episodes is getting better eac...

The week I recorded this (mid-July) my baby had a growth spurt.....yep, that's right. And she was a little more chatty and grizzly than usual so from now on expect to hear lots of her in the background! I hope you don't mind, but like Sophie said to me at the end of our chat -- I am a working mum, so hearing a baby gurgle, hiccup and snuffle while you hear me multitask is my reality.

Fiona Tucker | Embracing the mess of blogging
Holy crap, the podcast is still going! It's been such a fun project and a total dream to basically chat to my mates and glean incredible blogging tips while drinking tea in my pj's. The dream, y'all. It's come to a stage in the podcast where I'm thinking about whether to keep it as a fixed episode series and wrap things up after the run of guests I have scheduled thus far or keep going indefinitely. I'm in two minds because of life and because I need to find and ask more awesome women online if ...
