    JADA EPISODE 3

    We descend in this episode - a bit more into the weight and the dark. Recorded around the time of George Floyd's death, we cover topics such as where the hell did this all start to go wrong? The recognition that whiteness can be weaponised. The differences between the US and the UK in terms of racism - and whether there really are any. Julia commits one of the big white faux pas things - which is asking the black woman to tell her what to do about it all. Bernadette adds provocation as always. And Chas graces everyone with the depth of the primal scream she feels around all this. It is a meaty one.

    EPISODE 4 - Jada Is Our Queen

    We fangirl on Jada Pinkett-Smith, cover the double standards women have to contend with when it comes to their sex, denounce female competition and talk about how we navigate life above and beyond these oppressive standards as best we can.

    EPISODE 5: Jada is Our queen

    In this Christmas day episode, Julia, Bernadette & I discuss keeping our curiosity alive enough to continue having adventures as we go into middle age. Menopause is a wild, no joke, never-in-our-ken adventure where physical sensations are new and alarming, nothing is stable, and sleep escapes us, leaving utter tiredness behind. We talk about how ill prepared we are for this helluva trip because life forced us to live OUTSIDE the natural cycles of our bodies. 2020, the year of that disruptive number, FOUR, has brought a huge pause for large swathes of the population and we ponder if people will enter more fully into the matrix or resist it’s tug to a facsimile of comfort. We’re feeling what it might be like to go with the flow, rather than get buried in the status quo. We also dive into the taboo of older women staying sexual and turned-on. What does that look like? How do we get past the conditioning that would have us be invisible? What does the empowering flow of just being ourselves give us, when being ourselves is inherently undesirable and wrong? We talk about persevering through the darkness. Just a note. We are new podcasters and on a huge technical learning curve, we ask you to bear with the occasional glitch in the recording - each time we do this we get better at making this a great experience for you. Love. Julia, Bernadette, Chas

    EPISODE 6: Jada Is Our Queen

    This week we cover all sorts of terrain - literally. From London to Switzerland to Mexico and back again. And we discuss what makes us move, whether politics is relevant, and how losing the fear of death is really the key to everything. We talk about the spell-like quality of Covid. And Bernadette helps by telling us how her parents were so scared to go grocery shopping because of the virus, that they ate a rotten chicken and nearly died of food poisoning. 'Cos you gotta laugh really, in times such as these.

    EPISODE 7: Jada is Our Queen

    Today, whilst Bernadette is away on a pretty epic quest in a jungle somewhere in South America, Julia and I talk about the need to adventure - both the inner and outer kind - and how we can keep having them so that we can feel alive and stay curious. We talk about the spell of disparate realities and how we break out of that so that we can navigate difficult or curtailing circumstances in order to test our perceptions of a reality that is supportive of our vision, dreams and adventurous spirit. How audacious do we have to be to break out of conformity? (Words by Chas Hines)

    EPISODE 8: Where’s That Pesky Brown Woman At?

    In this episode we look into entitlement as a block to receiving. Chas tells us how she used to do this in a big way and how she finally saw through her entitlement and - in her words - grew up and out of it. We also explore how uncomfortable it is when people throw their entitlement at you and why that means they will sometimes get the thing, but it never means they get the deeper thing. Ie - connection. We meander into the concept of social activism vs personal responsibility - whether the two can ever meet and whether perhaps they should? Like in an ideal world, we might work towards marrying personal responsibility within our lives, with identifying and overthrowing limiting/harmful social contexts. We end our discussion, as we often do, by centering into the power of our desire to circumnavigate all of this. Oh and we also tell you some news about Bernadette - who is given to disappearing into the jungle every now and again.
