This week on 40s Women & Beyond, we’re chatting through feathery kisses, public speaking and Margaret's wellness breakfast.

We touch on love languages and how they play out in real life, plus how minding less if things go wrong can make all the difference.

We revisit a few tips from previous guests that have stuck and talk International Women’s Day and whether it sometimes leans a little too far into forced positivity.

In this enlightening episode we discuss the tricky balance of supporting your kids without taking on their anxiety yourself. We talk about how to step back and say less instead of spiral, and what actually helps in the moment.

Plus, we share a few simple but effective questions you can ask your children to deal with comparison - both in the home and at school.

If you have children in your life - this is one not to be missed!
