  • Founder of award-winning Nessa Organics Fiona Toomey explains how she is revolutionising the skincare industry
    Aug 23 2020

    Everyone needs to know about award-winning Nessa Organics and the amazing Fiona Toomey, CEO and founder, who is changing the skincare industry for the better. We've all used products that have cheap and nasty ingredients in that do your body more harm than good, Nessa is the exact opposite and Fiona joins For Pod's Sake to explain why she was so determined to make clean, organic products, free of junk, that women can use during and after pregnancy AND are safe for your newborn too.


    She also talks about Bliss, the charity she supports babies who are born prematurely or sick, and their families, and her own story that led her to that organisation and how Nessa supports the charity too.

  • Fashion brand Scamp & Dude talk about how their sweatshirts are helping the NHS staff during Covid-19 pandemic
    Apr 5 2020

    Whilst in isolation due to Coronavirus and with the help of technology, I speak to Jo Tutchener-Sharp, founder of Scamp & Dude, the award- winning superpower infused fashion brand for kids and grown- ups. Scamp & Dude is the stylish and comfortable brand that us mum's are loving living in whilst at home during lockdown. Jo has also started a competition for kids (and adults too) to design a superhero - and the winner will be printed on a T shirt, as well as so much being donated to the front line staff at the NHS.


    This is a brand that wants to make a difference? Why? Listen to Jo's incredibly inspiring and tear jerking story with how and why Scamp & Dude began and that Jo really is a real superhero.

  • The Magic and Madness of Motherhood at Christmas!
    Dec 20 2019

    Christmas is a CRAZY time of year - particularly for mothers who basically do everything whilst trying to make it all look seamless and easy. It's not. It's stressful and usually we end up crying into our Turkey with pure exhaustion. If this sounds like you, I'm sure you will relate to this episode. I speak with a hilarious mum I met at the school gates Kristen Smith aka @whineorwine about the madness....and magic that leads up to Christmas.
