🔥NEW EPISODE OUT NOW🔥

🎙️Come and join the conversation with the amazingly talented author Mary-Jane Riley @maryjanerileyauthor ! 

In this episode of The Yes She Can Project @yesshecanprojectpodcast, I’m thrilled to welcome acclaimed author Mary-Jane Riley. From her early days as a BBC journalist to becoming a full time novelist, Mary-Jane shares her journey of perseverance, inspiration, and finding her creative “home” in historical fiction.

We chat about:
- Her serendipitous start in journalism, from BBC Radio Leicester to hosting her own shows
- The early sparks of writing romance and crime stories while juggling family life
- Meeting Ruth Rendell, who inspired her to “just write” and follow her passion
- How her contemporary novels drew on village life, family experiences, and journalistic insights
- Transitioning to historical fiction and creating her Beattie Cavendish series, exploring post-WWII Europe and the Cold War
- The importance of character-driven storytelling and how personal and family histories shaped her novels
Balancing full-time writing with life, walks in the Suffolk countryside, and small, focused writing bursts
- Advice for aspiring writers: finding your why, creating time to write, and embracing that 99% perspiration, 1% luck
- Upcoming releases, including the next Beattie Cavendish book (The Highland Hideaway) and future projects
- Mary-Jane also shares the power of libraries, how borrowing books still supports authors, and the joy of storytelling as both escapism and inspiration. 
- Plus let's not forget an impromptu naked phone call👀 🤣

You can find Mary-Janes books in your local and independent bookshops, online via Amazon and Bookshop.org or head on over to her website here: https://www.maryjaneriley.com

How amazing is this coverage for @bysarahharan  in the new issue of @platinummaguk ? Thanks to @nickyhambletonjones, their Fashion Editor. I am obsessed, as are so many women I know, with the quality and versatility of these bags and have built up a lovely collection, but will always make room for more! Think, “cost per wear”, ladies! These bags will last a lifetime and never date! It’s Mother’s Day on Sunday, if you are thinking of buying one as a gift and, if you order today, it should arrive just in time!💕💕💕 by @championtalent

🎙️🔥NEW EPISODE OUT NOW!🔥🎙️

Come and join the conversation with the gorgeous and epically talented Alyssa Kyria, aka The Funny Mummy!

In this episode of The Yes SHE Can Project, I’m chatting to actress, comedian and all round brilliant human Alyssa Kyria about her journey through comedy, confidence and motherhood, and honestly, this conversation is packed with laughs, vulnerability and those “oh my god, YES” moments so many of us feel but don’t always say out loud.

Alyssa takes us right back to the beginning of her career, sharing how she first found her way into comedy through character work. She talks openly about why hiding behind a character felt safer, like wearing a mask that allowed her to be braver, bolder and more outrageous on stage.

We talk about what happens when the thing that once felt empowering no longer feels aligned, and how scary it can be to step away from what’s “worked” and into something far more vulnerable. Next, to the beginnings of Bring Your Own Baby Comedy, which Alyssa co-founded to create a space where mums actually go out, laugh and feel seen, babies and all.

Alyssa shares what it was really like deciding to step on stage as herself for the first time, no character, no mask, just her own stories. The nerves, the self-doubt, the questions of how much do I share? and will anyone find this funny? and then the magic that happens when you realise the audience is laughing because they’ve lived it too.

We talk about motherhood pressure, the avalanche of advice new mums are hit with from every angle. NCT groups, midwives, books, social media, well-meaning strangers… all telling you the “right” way to feed, sleep, soothe and parent your baby. Alyssa shares the moment she realised that trying to follow everyone else’s rules was costing her mental health, and how learning to do things her way changed everything for her and her baby.

🎙️ NEW EPISODE OUT NOW! 🎙️

What happens when a passion for fitness meets a deep curiosity about the human mind, and a refusal to ignore what’s really going on beneath the surface?

In this episode, I’m joined by the brilliant Dr Charlotte Ord @drcharlotteord , and honestly… this conversation is one every woman (and parent) needs to hear.

Charlotte shares her fascinating journey, from being naturally sporty, studying psychology, teaching fitness, owning multiple gyms, releasing a fitness DVD and even appearing on TV, to realising that what really got in people’s way wasn’t motivation or discipline, but was actually mindset, self-image, and mental health.

As her clients increasingly opened up about their struggles, Charlotte recognised a responsibility to do more. With the support of her incredible team (who kept her gyms running), she stepped away from the day-to-day and went on to complete her Doctorate in Psychology, a decision she credits with fully aligning her with her purpose.

Today, she feels empowered, energised, and deeply connected to the work she does. This is so clear as she talks! It's obvious how passionate she is about her work and that it fuels her, not only professionally but on a personal level too.

We talk openly and honestly about:

Body confidence, self-image, and why how we talk about our bodies really matters

The impact our words have on our children, both positively and negatively

The dangers of media messaging and unrealistic “healthy body” ideals

How diet culture fuels disillusionment, shame, and poor mental health

Recognising red flags around inner dialogue and disordered eating

Protecting your energy, setting boundaries, and checking if your life actually feels aligned

Grounding techniques and carving out time for yourself (without guilt)

Defining your own version of success, in a realistic, healthy and compassionate way

Charlotte also shares practical tools she’s seen work powerfully with her clients to boost self-worth, regain a sense of control, and step away from perfectionism.

🎙️ SNEAK PEEK! 🎙️

Coming up on the next episode of the @yesshecanprojectpodcast we have the incredible @drcharlotteord 🌟

In these clips we chat about the pressure we feel to show "success", the dangers of social media and the dream of the "perfect body" and the inability to realistically achieve this.

In the episode we chat about the reality of the way we speak about our bodies in front of our children and the impact it can have on their own body confidence and self worth. We underestimate just how much our kids are listening to those repetitive words we are using towards ourselves! I'm definitely guilty of this! 

Dr Charlotte gives incredible insights from not just a professional standpoint, but from personal experience too.

It was such a pleasure to chat to such an amazing lady and hear all about her latest book Body Confident You, Body Confident Kid, full episode to follow, you don't want to miss this one!

🔥🎙️@yesshecanprojectpodcast NEW EPISODE OUT NOW!🎙️🔥

Come and join the conversation with the incredible ball of energy that is Esther Stanhope! For the very first time on the Yes SHE Can Project podcast we are hearing from previous guests about their new projects! For Esther, she has a BRAND NEW book out entitled "Visibly Brilliant".

We chat about the premise of the book, from leaders of organisations, entrepreneurs, company execs, Esther is helping people to look good, sound good and most of all FEEL good! As a previous BBC Broadcaster, she is perfectly placed in helping everyone to go from technically brilliant to Visibly Brilliant!

Working with people from all walks of life, she helps people step out of their comfort zone and be seen for the expert that they are without feeling uncomfortable doing it. We talk about the mindset shift that's needed to put yourself out there, the worry that sometimes comes along with that and the ways in which you can feel more comfortable with putting yourself forward for opportunities. Esther uses the perfect analogy for putting ourselves to one side instead of having the spotlight on us, thinking of being visible as sharing instead, it really helps to shift your thinking about things, something she said has worked wonders for her clients. She shares her long term strategy of how she helps people find their confidence, citing that it really doesn't matter who you are or what level you're at, we can all take small steps every single day to raising our profiles.

All of us at some point have held ourselves back, put barriers in our way when it comes to getting ourselves seen, whether that's speaking in a meeting, writing articles, filming social media videos or hitting post on Linkedin, we can almost talk ourselves out of it! We chat about the importance of having that consistent visibility and setting it into your daily routine. Esther says that building these habits in regularly can be instrumental in building our confidence over time, a tried and tested method she has seen fabulous results for her clients time and time again!

🎙️OUT NOW!🎙️

Come and join the conversation with Sarah Haran @bysarahharan AKA The Bag Lady! Founder of Sarah Haran Accessories @sarahharanuk , Sarah has designed the ultimate, innovative bags that are interchangeable, giving you endless looks in just one purchase!

We chat all about her journey so far, beginning with her career in tech. Small glimpses of her handbag hobby started to surface when she began to get fed up of having to take ugly and impractical bags everytime she was travelling for work. She knew that handbags was a direction she wanted to go in, having to put up with those "techy backpacks" for so long, she felt compelled to fulfill that need for others too. She knew from her experience that she needed something not only practical, and with functionality, but it needed to look amazing too.

In 2017, Sarah knew it was the right time to take the leap. She had a solid plan, and confidently was able to stride into her new adventure with her brand. She tells me honestly about the worries that she experienced in the early days, but continued to push on and grow her business, soaking up all the knowledge she could along the way.

It was three years in the making before she launched her first product, Sarah opens up about the challenges that she faced, the patience she had to bring it to fruition and cites it as a real invention process. Sarah researched, researched and researched some more! Wanting superior quality, functionality and the ability to customise and interchange the bags, Sarah also knew that she needed a product you could take from day to night, just like she needed along her way in her corporate career.

We chat the importance of staying ahead of trends, keeping your customers involved in the process and how she has built a global, loyal customer base. You can tell how important Sarah's community and client base is to her, although the brand has reached over 10,000 reviews, Sarah is evidently still as invested and values her customers just as much now as she did at the launch of Sarah Haran Accessories.

“Forget average. Set a new baseline for how you deserve to feel — every single day.”

In this week’s episode, I’m joined by the fabulous Nicky Hambleton-Jones @nickyhambletonjones — best known for the TV show 10 Years Younger, but whose work goes far deeper than makeovers.

Together, we unpack why so many women feel invisible in midlife — and how style can become a tool for reclamation, not performance.

Nicky shares:

✨ Why your age, shape, size, or budget should never dictate how you dress

✨ How clothes can rewire your identity, not just your image

✨ Why feeling amazing — not “just okay” — should be your new reference point

✨ How even a simple outfit can become a powerful nervous system tool

This conversation isn’t about trends or perfection — it’s about using what you wear to remember who you are… and who you’re becoming.

Because midlife isn’t the end of style, expression, or confidence.

It’s the moment you stop dressing to hide — and start dressing to feel fully like yourself.
