  • Been my favourite podcast for donkey’s years now

    I was going to send this as an email but felt a review would be more helpful?

    I was feeling an absolute mess of nerves and dread and whatnot this morning, needed something to chill me out a bit while I got on with work. Tried an audiobook: did my head in. No music I wanted to listen to. So I scrolled through my podcast library and KNEW this podcast was the solution.

    I’ve listened for years, this is the only podcast I haven’t got bored of or felt like skipping an episode. I’m not a religious li... more

    What happened to this podcast? The conversations with a wide variety of people used to be a source of inspiration for me. For some time now, I've rarely stopped by because there were no new conversations, only reruns, and now I've had to discover that it's mainly about weight loss. The host's constant preoccupation with this topic and use of her platform for recurring monologues about it doesn't seem like a healthy development to me.

  • Just be yourself

    I’ve been listening to your podcast for the past 4–5 years, and I’ll admit I’m probably not your typical listener, just a straight guy with no interest in makeup or beauty. But after hearing your recent episode about ‘when podcasts go bad,’ I have to say I love that you’re sticking to your guns (pun intended) and staying true to yourself.

    I started listening in the early days when your topics felt more relevant to me, and while I skip the beauty episodes, what’s kept me here is you: your honest... more

  • Authentic honest and refreshing

    In a very crowded market, where listening to a personal, natural and real podcast has kind of been replaced by over processed, ad heavy, manufactured-yawn programmes. Emma‘s always stands out. She’s just really honest and it feels like she speaks just to you! I really really admire Emma’s honest and sincere approach and her bravery in opening up certain aspects of her own struggles and learnings. I enjoy listening to her podcast and wish her nothing but the best. Thank you so much.
