Dr Nicole LePera makes a welcome return to the podcast following her first visit in 2021 where we discussed, among other things, self-sabotage, how easy it is to 'coast' through life, the empath/narcissist dynamic and how to set boundaries. This time around Nicole shares her insights on building strong bonds with other people by first getting to know yourself.I love chatting with Nicole; she is always generous with her insights and expertise. Her new book How to Be the Love You Seek really is a valuable guide for anyone who hasn't felt the love they want or need.Listen to our first conversation here: Nicole's 1st visit to The Emma Guns Show.To join the podcast's Facebook group, click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Subscribe now.Hey!

Social media is great, right? We get those little dopamine hits from refreshing our feeds, get to peek into other people's lives and can find a way to be entertained 24/7. But what if you're using it too much? What if you're hooked?!In this episode, I share my findings from my first week or a month-long social media break. Am I in a clammy heap on the floor thinking about Instagram or am I far more present and engaged in my daily life?To join the Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Subscribe now.Hey!

There were so many questions sent in for November's Ask Me Anything that I decided to answer them in this month's solo episode. Thanks to everyone who took the time to write in!Questions answered in this episode:What’s your best beauty product of 2023?What’s the most embarrassing beauty treatment you’ve ever had?What is something you’re doing in 2023 that you weren’t doing in 2022?Best way to get back on the wagon?Would you recommend tweakments?What are your thoughts and advice on fillers and botox? Should I continue?Biggest current challenge or goal and how you’re navigating to overcome or achieve it?In your adult life, what experience, book, and person has had the greatest impact?Complete Taylor Swift virgin, where should I begin?I know you love Skims but do you ever feel uncomfortable supporting such a grotesquely rich family?I want to read Brain over Binge because I know I have issues with food and a lot of what you’ve said about food taking up a lot of mental brain space really resonates, but I’m terrified it won’t have the same effect on me.I want 2024 to be the year I stop being lazy, start going to the gym and eat well. Any tips?I’m thinking of getting some dumbbells so I can work out at home, any suggestions for what weight I should start with?Are you still getting up early?I really respect your journey with coming to terms with food issues etc but I am disappointed you advocate for calories. It makes me think you’ve ultimately bought into diet culture so it’s less of a recovery and just another type of disorder.To join the Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Subscribe now.Hey!

I've had a flurry of messages from people recently asking how to navigate food and drink during the Christmas Party Season. I'm not an expert but I know what it's like to feel completely out of control around food, especially when it's in plentiful supply so I hope this episode is helpful for anyone who struggles in the same way.You can contact Beat Eating Disorders via their website or on 0808 801 0677.To join the Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Subscribe now.Hey!

Kathryn Hansen changed my life. I don't say that lightly, but her book Brain over Binge helped me confront, come to terms with and ultimately start recovery from an eating disorder I didn't even realise I had. You see, binge eating disorders tend to go undiagnosed and actually impact more people combined than the better-known anorexia nervosa and anorexia bulimia. It can be easily dismissed as gluttony, laziness, greed and a whole host of other negative labels that nobody really wants to wear. Still, it is a recognised emotional/mental illness that can be supported with treatments, including counselling.I had lived in shame for years since I was a child and my weight tipped over into the obese category at the doctors, so I began a relationship with food that was secret, feast or famine and co-dependent and which led my body to look and feel a way I didn't want it to.In this episode, four years after reading Kathryn's book and being able to install lifestyle changes that have changed my relationship with food forever, we discuss the muddy topic of what it's like to feel dependent on and powerless around food.To join the Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Subscribe now.Hey!

At the time of publication, we are fully into Cyber Week and every advert on social media, television and billboard is screaming about the amazing deal you could get for this week only.

I'm just going to say it, I'm a fully signed-up Michael Douglas super fan after this conversation. He's a hairdresser and entrepreneur with over 35 years in the beauty industry, and how Michael and I have never 'properly' met despite our years in the same space is beyond me but thank goodness we put that right by 'meeting' for this conversation.It's not an exaggeration to say that a lot of what Michael said really stayed with me after we spoke; his thoughts on karma, forgiveness and apologising gave me pause for thought and were really helpful in helping me get clarity on some of my own 'life stuff'. We covered a lot of ground in this chat and perhaps what I loved the most was that he was happy to answer anything, to explore any subject in a way that was unguarded and very real.To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Subscribe now.Hey!

Die Hard IS a Christmas movie and this, my dear listeners, is why Lindsey Kelk and I are friends. Well, this and also a joyous mutual appreciation for Taylor Alison Swift, anything a little bit supernatural and also bralettes.Lindsey returns to the podcast as her book The Christmas Wish is published in paperback but it's exciting times for Lindsey who has several major products in production as well as new books expected next year. Her return to the podcast is, as you'd expect from two people who regularly communicate by WhatsApp about pretty much everything, to hear about the books she's written since she last visited, her feelings about Arnold Schwarzenegger as Governor of California, her latest and greatest beauty finds (this is mainly a love-in about the CurrentBody LED Face Mask) and much more.To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Subscribe now.Hey!

In this episode is Claire Coleman one of the most trusted, familiar and respected names in beauty journalism. She is known for being thorough, relying heavily on evidence and science to debunk myths or bring clarity to the latest attention-grabbing headlines. In fact, she is so detail-oriented that I’ve been calling her The Forensic Beauty Journalist for years. Claire is also a returning guest to the podcast and my friend. She is someone to whom I regularly go for advice and to find out what she thinks about certain topics because she is so thoughtful and considered. Claire doesn’t tend to put pen to paper or indeed open her mouth unless she has thought through what she is going to say.It’s why I thought a ride through her life lessons would make for an interesting conversation and also because I’ll take any opportunity to quiz her about pretty much anything because her perspective is always helpful.To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Subscribe now.Hey!

My guest today is Emily English, the nutritionist and brand founder, who quite honestly changed my entire diet when I met her and started following her Instagram recipes. I have never eaten such delicious, colourful and nutritious food - all of which is an absolute delight to make.Her work extends beyond her clinic with clients, she is also a wellness entrepreneur with future projects we should all keep our eyes and ears open for.To assume that Emily’s life is picture perfect, although even though she admits her Instagram does look pretty perfect, life hasn’t always been smooth. She’s taken risks, made mistakes, learned the hard way and come up against some pretty challenging obstacles - and it’s the lessons learned from these that Emily is going to share with us today on this episode of The Emma Guns Show.To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Hey!

My guest is Laura Mathias, the communications manager, campaigner and alopecia awareness advocate. Laura started losing her hair in her early teens and she admits that, as a result, she stopped leaving the house. As she describes it, ‘I completely withdrew and just gave up.’ On Instagram where she’s @relightalopecia, Laura has shared her journey with alopecia because that diagnosis in her early teens led to issues with self-esteem and self-expression. A wig-wearer for years, lockdown changed that when we were all working from home and had the option to turn our cameras off and this was a huge learning experience for her and it’s these learnings she shares in this episode.To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Hey!

Author and journalist Anita Bhagwandas has occupied some of the most senior beauty journalism roles in magazines and newspapers over her nearly twenty-year career. She entered the beauty industry feeling like an outsider, determined to take the white-centric, thinner-is-better ideal perpetuated in media and open it up into something much more inclusive.Because it sucks to be an outsider. And it sucks even harder to be an outsider for things that you simply cannot do anything about, such as your skin colour.Though Anita entered the world of beauty journalism in order to be an agent for change, she perhaps underestimated the impact the fashion and beauty world would have on her, a girl from Wales who had never felt as though she fit in or looked the right way. In many ways, she was throwing herself headlong into a world ripe to reject, dismiss and other her and, as I’m sure we’ll discuss, that was a part of her career journey she perhaps hadn’t anticipated.Her book Ugly deep dives into why we find what we find beautiful, beautiful but perhaps, more than that, it uncovers why we assign ugly to so much, including, more often than not ourselves.To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Hey!

Ruby Warrington is an author, journalist and publishing consultant and as she shares her life lessons with us in this episode, we linger on the topic of her new book Women Without Kids. Ruby and I are of a similar age and neither of us have, or want, children and that's something which still, in some circles, makes us a bit weird. It shouldn't though and hopefully being open and honest on this topic is the way we remove the taboo.Ruby's book Women Without Kids is available now.To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Hey!

Dr Philippa Kaye is a familiar face on British television thanks to her thorough clinics on daytime TV offering health advice. She has also gone 'viral' online for making sometimes taboo health subjects accessible and easily understood. In this episode, Philippa shares her life lessons with me and how being diagnosed with cancer, and having to have major surgeries during the very first lockdown, impacted her physical, mental and emotional health.Her account of being alone in intensive care is heartbreaking but the lessons she's learned, the resolve she's found and how she communicated her situation to her three young children is truly inspiring.I challenge you not to cry during this conversation, such is Philippa's honesty on a sometimes difficult-to-navigate topic.To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Hey!

How have I lost weight? This is something that people have been messaging me about for months and it felt like the right time, and the right place, to share a little more detail. I know some of you have noticed my weight loss on Instagram and I wanted to share the method I used. I also want to stress that I was already delighted with my progress. The underlying issue with all of this was my issues with food and the fact that I am recovering from something resembling a binge eating disorder. I am not a nutritionist and this podcast shouldn't be taken as me telling you what to do, it is merely my account of what I have done and what has worked for me.I am always happy to discuss in DMs or by email - or my favourite place is the Facebook group - if you want to ask me anything more specific.To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Hey!

Mandy Hickson is a fast-jet pilot who came face-to-face with Tom Cruise and, lost for words, told him, 'it's unlikely you'd be able to run after ejecting'. He agreed and she should know because Mandy is a former RAF fast-jet pilot who has completed three tours of duty and 45 combat missions. You can imagine my glee at getting to ask her about her relationship with risk...Strap in, do a salute to the tower and get ready for take-off because this is an episode and conversation packed with incredible and unique insights, stories from the skies - including a harrowing account of being airborne during 9/11 - and why the key to so many things is 'controlling the controllables'.To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Watch clips from the podcast >> Youtube | The Emma Guns ShowSign up for my newsletter here >> Newsletter.Hey!
