    "We may freeze our eggs" #38

    "We may freeze our eggs" #38

    Hey welcome to the Boujee Blondes Podcast 

    Ever felt the holiday season's pressure to find the 'perfect' gift? Is the constant reminder of ticking biological clocks driving you up the wall? Join the gals, your Boujee Blondes, as we navigate through these and more in our latest podcast episode. They candidly share our experiences around the changes in our bodies as we age, the societal pressures surrounding motherhood, and the potential solution egg freezing presents. In the spirit of the season, we also weigh in on the romantic vs cliché debate about holiday engagements. 

    Stepping into the second half of our episode, we discuss an issue that has vexed many - the financial stress of gifting within affluent circles. A listener shares her predicament regarding buying high-end gifts for her wealthy boyfriend's family. They chip in with our experiences, stressing that it's the love and respect you demonstrate all year round that truly counts. Moving on, the girls explore the impact of social media on young women, discussing beauty standards, body image, and even the 'lemon bottle' procedure. Here's a spoiler - we firmly believe in embracing our unique imperfections!

    As they wrap up, they probe deeper into the world of social media, its deceptive portrayal of 'perfect lives,' and the pressure it puts on us. Sharing their personal struggles, they discuss how they strive for a balance between the virtual and real world. On a lighter note, the girls also take a fun detour to explore some outlandish conspiracy theories sparked by the fact that Australia is wider than the moon! As they bid goodbye, they remind you to align with freedom, growth, and joy! So, are you ready to get Boujee with us?

    #119 - The Five Love Languages

    #119 - The Five Love Languages

    This theory from the 90s is most likely something, you have at least heard about over the years. But what is it really about? What are the Five Love Languages and how do they work? Are they actually benefitting relationships? And how can you find out you own?

    The answers to these and many more questions are in this week’s episode. And of course, I also talk about my own experience and past relationships.

    #116 - Spooky-Season: Niels Högel & Why Killers kill

    #116 - Spooky-Season: Niels Högel & Why Killers kill

    Welcome to our second episode of this month’s Spooky-Season. In this week’s episode, I will be telling you about Serial Killers & even more about one in particular. One, who has worked as a nurse, in an environment, where people should be helped & supported. But it is also an environment in which it is common for people to pass away & so unusual deaths don’t always get noticed immediately.

    Niels Högel is a sad & horrifying exception of how a nurse should care for their patients. He is a killer from the region Lower Saxony in the North of Germany, who is responsible for ending hundreds of his patients’ lives between 2000 & 2005. Sadly, he could have been stopped & many people could have been saved. But why wasn’t he? And why did he do, what he did?

    And why do Serial Killers kill? What goes on in the minds of people who again & again take people’s lives? It is trauma? Are they all psychopaths?

    Answers to these & many more questions will be part of today’s episode. Answers, that will give us more clarity & hopefully give us an understanding to be able to spot the signs of someone who hurts others & to find the words & the courage to speak up when necessary - because that’s what didn’t happen in Högel’s case.

    TW: This episode contains topic that can be disturbing, triggering, upsetting & includes visual descriptions of violence, blood, murder & death. Please look after yourself.

    The missing puzzle piece

    The missing puzzle piece

    This is the first episode in a series of shorter solo podcasts from me, as I get down to the nitty gritty on my healing journey over the last 12 months. Yes it feels vulnerable but it's my truth and I want to share it with you. 

    During this episode I speak about being diagnosed with ADHD at 40, spiralling into depression, feeling unworthy to be a therapist and getting bored of my own voice.
