    Loved this round up of the Womanifest experience! I was one of the people who performed stand up for the first time after Mary's support and guidance. I have wanted to do it for so long and it was an incredible experience making a room of supportive women laugh! I most definitely have the bug and want to do it again! During the weekend I had 5 more firsts so it was a very empowering and strengthening time. I attended Mary's Bliss workshop too and reflected on all of the growth that weekend had brought me! Thanks again to Mary for helping me to make my dream come true xx

      This clip is from the end of the podcast. At the start of the podcast Ayesha explains how she first learnt Irish Sign Language whilst living in Dublin and then had to learn BSL when she moved back to England. As you say, the interpreter in the podcast is using BSL.

The first chapter explores Maddy Templeman's brave decision to leave an alternative Christian lifestyle. The second chapter discusses the healing power of laughter and its importance in getting through tough times. The third chapter delves into the sources of inspiration in Maddy's life, including influential writers and personal experiences. The final chapter explores how Maddy found her spark by learning to trust herself and love again. In this conversation, Maddy discusses her journey of taking the leap to start her own business and the importance of self-belief. She also shares her spiritual beliefs and the power of unexpected connections. The conversation highlights the significance of friendship and the evolving definition of success.

Takeaways Real people's stories of overcoming adversity can provide inspiration and comfort. Laughter has a healing effect and can help bring perspective and positivity.
