- The ‘antidote’
I love Emma’s latest venture - it’s like an antidote to the trend towards the superficial (and childlike, ‘tribal’ politics). No surprise it takes a woman to make something so real (as men, episodes like the perimenopause one should be almost ‘compulsory’ material). Emma you are a fabulous ‘teacher’ - and a joy !

Every week so far this podcast seems to stop me in my tracks and takes me through the contributors journey. Emma asks the right questions without pushing but also seems to know how to allow enough space for the story to evolve.
