    Emma Barnett will not be underestimated

    Emma Barnett is a broadcaster, journalist and author who we admire hugely. She is one of the BBC’s most high-profile journalists who is currently part of the presenting team on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme - as well as previously hosting Women’s Hour and Newsnight.  Alongside her incredible broadcasting career, Emma has also become a powerful advocate for women’s health - having chosen to speak up about her very difficult IVF journey as well as struggling with both endometriosis and adenomyosis. Emma told us about why she chose to bring her private reality into light to advocate for women’s health and to disrupt the assumptions that we may hold about ‘serious’ news presenters.  We also spoke to Emma about interviewing Kate Bush, what happened when she called out Rory Stewart for lying on air and why she is concerned about women feeling the need to be liked all the time.  Experiences that have reshaped lives. Bold questions, unexpected truths, lots of tea... Emma Barnett invites you into her world for deeply human conversations. You can listen to episodes on BBC Sounds HERE. New episodes of Ready to Talk with Emma Barnett are available every Friday on BBC Sounds.

    Is this a friendship break up? with Michelle Elman

    Today, we’re continuing our exploration of friendship with the brilliant Michelle Elman.  We spoke to Michelle about how friendship is not taken seriously - and female friendships in particular are trivialised. Michelle gave us practical advice on how to operate in a world where the odds feel stacked against our friendships - where they seemingly have to battle with social media, our adult responsibilities and our romantic relationships.  Our conversation covers everything from confrontation to ghosting - so if you feel like you need help being a better friend, or if you want to navigate a friendship break up - this is the episode for you.  Follow @michelleelman on Instagram Michelle’s new book Bad Friend: Why Friendship Breakups Hurt and How to Heal is available now If you want to get in touch you can email us on shouldideletethatpod@gmail.com  Follow us on Instagram: @shouldideletethat @em_clarkson @alexlight_ldn Should I Delete That is produced by Faye Lawrence Studio Manager: Elliott Mckay Video Editor: Celia Gomez Social Media Manager: Sarah English Music: Alex Andrew Hosted on Acast.

    We went to therapy for our friendship

    We’re often given advice about how we should nurture our romantic relationships - but sometimes we can leave our friendships by the wayside…  We spoke to Natasha Silverman - a relationship therapist - about how to maintain and nurture our friendships as we navigate our way through adulthood. And to do that - we put OUR relationship under the microscope.  Natasha gave us practical advice about how to maintain friendships when you have children, how to deal with feelings of loss when your friends meet different milestones to you, how to communicate about when you feel left out and how small acts can help your friends feel more loved.  Follow @tashtalkstherapy on Instagram  Follow @tashtalkstherapy on TikTok Read more about Natasha’s work - https://natashasilverman.com/ If you want to get in touch you can email us on shouldideletethatpod@gmail.com  Follow us on Instagram: @shouldideletethat @em_clarkson @alexlight_ldn Should I Delete That is produced by Faye Lawrence Studio Manager: Elliott Mckay Video Editor: Celia Gomez Social Media Manager: Sarah English Music: Alex Andrew Hosted on Acast.

    “You’re not even allowed to think for yourself” - surviving a ‘cult’… with Rachael Reign

    Rachael Reign was 13 years old when she joined what she thought was a youth group… the next eight years of her life were dedicated to an organisation that she describes as a 'cult'.  We spoke to Rachael about her experience in the UCKG - a church with over 30 locations in the UK that has been accused by Rachael and other ex-members of dangerous, cult-like behaviour. The UCKG states that they are not a cult - and it is a registered charity in the UK.  Rachael told us about her years within the church - the effect it has had on her life, the fear she felt around leaving and why she has created the UK’s only black-led specialist support group for fellow survivors.  Follow @msrachaelreign on Instagram Follow @survivinguniversaluk on Instagram  If you want to get in touch you can email us on shouldideletethatpod@gmail.com  Follow us on Instagram: @shouldideletethat @em_clarkson @alexlight_ldn Should I Delete That is produced by Faye Lawrence Studio Manager: Elliott Mckay Video Editor: Celia Gomez Social Media Manager: Sarah English Music: Alex Andrew Hosted on Acast.

    Just Us: The brilliance of Lily Allen, Nelly Furtado’s retirement and Al’s melancholy playlist

    We’ve had a busy week being completely and utterly obsessed with Lily Allen’s new album - West End Girl - and we mean TRULY OBSESSED.  We unpack Lily’s radical honesty on the album which narrates the breakdown of her marriage. We dive into her cultural trailblazer status - and just how brave she is to put her relationship under the microscope... Our pop-culture chat continues - as we discuss Nelly Furtado’s retirement from music and the way people have tied her decision to leave music to recent body-shaming headlines. Is it taking the narrative away from her? And why is the music industry so toxic for “older” women?  Do you have thoughts on Lily or Nelly?
