Simone Pyle || Honest Participants Only

Simone Pyle || Honest Participants Only

This was a tough episode to record and to edit. It took me 6 months to get the content to you - that's because we talk about loss.
My guest on todays show is an old friend. In the year 2000, Simone Pyle lost 4 people she loved in a car crash. The accident shook our social and friendship circles to the core and the loss of such wonderful people is still felt today.
Parts of the audio may be shocking or difficult to listen to but Simone's insights into losing loved ones and learning how to cope are more than enough reason to spend some time with her families' story.
Dedicated to Mark, Noel, Constance and Peter xx
CONTENT WARNING - we briefly touch on a graphic detail of the accident.

Anju Bogle || Honest Participants Only

Anju Bogle || Honest Participants Only

In this episode, the spotlight is on Anju Bogle. The purpose of this interview was to speak about her new business and the inspiration for her Anglo-Asian style but we quickly went off track (in the best way possible). 

Anju shares stories of her childhood, the prejudice that followed her decision to marry outside of her race, her faith, family and so much more. I hope you'll be as moved as I was.

Enjoy!

N.B. Anju's bravery in sharing these deep, sometimes tough, stories about her life is commendable but may be a trigger for some. If you find that you are affected by her story and you would like to talk about your own experiences of trauma and/or isolation, the following organisation may be able to help:

Samaritans.org

Alternatively, you may be able to speak to a family member, friend or medical professional.
