In this week's episode of Outspoken Mental Health I'm talking about how hard it can be to open up about your mental health, even though on paper people are more accepting and knowledgable these days.I also chat about why those closest to you won't always be able to totally get what you're going through and how it's important to accept that and find those who can be there in the right way.Finally, I talk about the importance of getting to a place where you can give up safety behaviours as this will teach your brain that all is OK!Come and join our wonderful private Facebook community here

In this episode I chat to the incredible model, content creator, and confidence activist Dani DMC. "Dani is a rebel against society by nature and is a firm believer that confidence is the gateway to true freedom. She’s a firm believer in radical self-love, taking our power back and gaining full control of our minds and bodies. She utilises her social media platforms to push her message to her ‘Confidence Crew’ and empower and encourage women to love themselves unconditionally and step into unapologetic confidence."During the episode we talk about Dani's childhood and how being bullied shaped her. We also talk about the expectations on women in society and how we can fight them, the meaning of radical self love and how we can start feeling true confidence in who we are and what we stand for.Dani is a force to be reckoned with and chatting to her made me feel energised, excited and ready to be a stronger person with far more boundaries.

I'm so excited to announce that the brilliant Beauty Editor of Women's Health and self- confessed skincare nerd Perdita Nouril will be a regular Friday co-host.Each week we'll be getting under the skin of the biggest beauty trends and products and discussing the science, research and whether they're worth the hype.This week Perdie explains why the iconic Biologique Recherche Lotion P50 may not be as readily available as it once was and how this superstar skincare product is to thank for the brilliant PHA products that are now so readily available.We'll also hear about all the unexpected ways that PHAs can benefit us (I knew they were good but never knew quite HOW good) and Perdita will share some of her top PHA products.Enjoy this fellow skincare enthusiasts and thanks to Perdita for her amazing knowledge.

In this week's Outspoken Review I'm talking about a pricey but truly brilliant moisturiser from Dermalogica, the cream blush that worked magic before my very eyes, why we all need a red lipstick today more than ever and I also have a bit of a rant about being told to smile!

This is for me one of the key things. If you want to beat anxiety you need to learn to live with it and stop fighting it. Get comfortable with it. Let it do its worst. It can't kill you, it won't make you lose control and you won't faint!!Please remember that i'm NOT an expert. This series is based on my lived experience and journalistic research. Thanks Anxiety Josh for your amazing work and teachings about accepting discomfort!You can join our private Outspoken Mental Health Facebook Community here xx
