    6. Who Does She Think She Is? The Fear of Being Judged

    Send us Fan Mail Have you ever stopped yourself from doing something because you were worried what other people might think? I have. In fact, that's exactly what's been holding me back from properly launching this podcast! In this episode of The Cotswold Confidence Club, I'm sharing a conversation with my business coach that made me realise just how much the fear of being judged can influence our decisions, even when we think we're fairly confident people. I'm also taking you back 20 years to an uncomfortable experience I had in a beauty salon. It's something I've never forgotten, and it completely shaped the way I've treated clients and trained my teams ever since. We explore: Why we worry so much about what other people think of us.The pressure women face around appearance, ageing and expectations.Why we're often kinder and more encouraging to our friends than ourselves.The imaginary audience we're sometimes so frightened of disappointing.How fear of judgement can stop us trying new things, asking for help or putting ourselves forward.Small, practical ways to stop letting other people's opinions make our decisions for us.A question to take away: What's one thing you'd love to do if you weren't worried about being judged? I'd love to hear your thoughts. If you enjoyed this episode, please follow The Cotswold Confidence Club and share it with someone who might enjoy the conversation.

    5. The Things Women Still Don’t Talk About

    Send us Fan Mail We've come a long way in talking openly about menopause and mental health, but there are still so many things women feel embarrassed to ask about. After a whirlwind week celebrating 20 years in business, speaking at a menopause group and joining Dr Dawn Harper at a Living Well With and After Cancer event, I've been reflecting on the conversations that happened afterwards. From unwanted facial hair and thinning scalp hair to losing eyebrows and eyelashes during cancer treatment, these are concerns that can have a real impact on how we feel about ourselves, yet so many women struggle to seek help. In this episode, I'm sharing what struck me most about these events, why I believe we need to normalise these conversations, and why having access to trustworthy information and genuine solutions matters so much. Because confidence isn't about fixing everything or changing who we are. Sometimes it simply starts with feeling comfortable enough to ask a question. Let's get more women talking.

    4. We've Changed in 20 Years… Has Our Makeup? 💄

    Send us Fan Mail We've Changed in 20 Years… Has Our Makeup? 💄 Heavy black eyeliner, Rimmel Heather Shimmer lipstick, questionable perms and the infamous Essex facelift ponytail… remember those days? 😂 Last week, we celebrated 20 years since I first opened my beauty salon, and it got me thinking. An awful lot has changed in those 20 years. I've changed, my skin has changed, my face has changed, and I'm certainly not doing my makeup the way I did in my twenties! But sometimes, while we're busy getting on with life, our makeup routines don't change with us. In this episode of The Cotswold Confidence Club, we're taking a nostalgic trip down memory lane, having a laugh about some of our past beauty choices and sharing practical advice to help make our makeup work better for us today. We'll be chatting about: Why your favourite foundation might suddenly be emphasising lines and dryness.Simple eyeliner tricks for hooded eyes, including why thinner upper liner and softer, partial lower liner can make a difference.How changing your blusher placement can give a fresher appearance.Eyebrows — from overplucking and shaving them off to finding a more flattering shape today.Why hydrating and satin-finish lipsticks can be kinder to dry lips.How YouTube tutorials and online communities have made learning new techniques easier than ever.✨ Your One Thing This Week Challenge Choose just ONE thing about your makeup routine that hasn't been working quite as well as it used to, and try something different. No expensive shopping spree, no complete makeover. Just one small change.

Tara is the founder of The Thriving Business Woman and the author of Magnificent Mindset, and our conversation explores what mindset really means in everyday life. We talk about confidence, self-belief, fear, change and the way our thoughts can shape the decisions we make. We also explore what can happen when you begin to challenge the beliefs that have been keeping you small, start looking at things differently and become more intentional about the life and work you want to create. This isn’t just a conversation about business. It’s about how we think, how we respond to change, how we move through uncertainty and how much our mindset can influence what we believe is possible for us. Tara also shares more about her own journey, her work with women and why she believes mindset can be such a powerful part of creating a life that feels successful on your own terms.

    2. When you don't feel like yourself anymore

    Send us Fan Mail Episode 2: When You Don’t Feel Like Yourself Anymore Have you ever looked in the mirror, or at your life, and thought: I just don’t feel like me anymore? In this episode of The Cotswold Confidence Club, I’m talking about that strange in-between stage so many women experience when we’ve changed, but our habits, routines and expectations haven’t quite caught up with us. We talk about the changes that can happen through ageing, menopause, illness, hair loss, changing relationships, motherhood and simply moving into a different stage of life. I also explore why confidence isn’t always about trying to get back to who we used to be. Sometimes it’s about working out who we are now. We talk beauty, identity, clothes, hair, makeup, unwanted facial hair, hormones and the small things that can sometimes make a surprisingly big difference to how we feel. Because confidence is rarely just about vanity. Sometimes it’s about recognition. That feeling of looking at yourself and thinking: There I am. The Cotswold Confidence Club is a space for honest conversations about beauty, ageing, health, confidence and life, and all the things that help us feel more like ourselves.
