    Conducta on breaking the mould and changing the record to his life

    Conducta on breaking the mould and changing the record to his life

    This week Francesca is joined by Conducta, a British producer of UK garage music and head of Kiwi Records label. Coducta produced the biggest-selling UK Garage record in history, AJ Tracey’s "Ladbroke Grove". Conducta was riding high, traveling the world when life started to run him, after a number of years he found himself hitting rock bottom. After struggling with depression and burnout he entered rehab at the start of 2022, but it was then he began a new phase of life and unburdening the limitations he put on his music and personal life.  This was an incredible conversation and I’m so grateful to share it with you.
    We hope this story resonates, please pass it on to anyone else you think needs to hear it.

    Uncle Kevin & I: What part of you have you not recognised yet? The spiritual lessons we learned from Samantha's interview

    Uncle Kevin & I: What part of you have you not recognised yet? The spiritual lessons we learned from Samantha's interview

    This week Uncke Kevin & Fran deep dive into the spiritual side of Samantha's interview from Tuesday’s episode.
    What part of you have you not recognised, that may need help but you just keep avoiding it? We have an assumption that 'normal' is very definable, and well quite frankly it isn't, but somehow part of us still feels we have to try to become 'normal', when in fact we need to learn to become ourselves, and that involves facing how you appear in the world to yourself and not because of what society expects of you. Get out of fantasy mode and into reality. Go back and listen to Samantha's interview, it's a fantastic listen!

    Samantha Baines on Living with Hearing Loss & Deafness

    Samantha Baines on Living with Hearing Loss & Deafness

    This week Francesca is joined by Samantha Baines, a comedian, author, actress, and presenter, she openly talks about her journey to finding out she was deaf at 16 years old. Samantha is one of the most honest people we have interviewed on the podcast, she owns her story and tells it with humour and warmth. She will challenge you on what you think you know because after all we don't know what we don't know and if we've learned anything in the last few years is that education is paramount AND humour is gospel. Samantha is a wonderful teacher, enjoy this brilliant episode!

    Jo Elvin on resilience, honesty, and entering a new chapter of her life

    This week Francesca is joined by Jo Elvin, she talks openly about the evolution of her life and the new chapter she is opening. Jo has experienced major ups and downs in her career life, and she has faced it head-on with grace and honesty. She is a refreshingly open person who talks about her own personal battles with the stories she has told herself about her own body - which aren't true - just like so many of us do, and how that has played out for her. Jo is inspirational to so many women, and we can see why. At the end you'll hear we set Jo some homework, we have a feeling she will stick to it!
