Welcome to The Waffle Shop, hosted by me, Taylor James!

This is the first of many extra portion episodes where I take some of my favourite moments so far and have another waffle about them!

Up first is a snippet from my waffle with the human version of marmite, Perez Hilton! Love him or hate him, he offered some really good advice and brought two very good talking points!

'The universe will continue to send you the same lesson until you learn from it' & 'Hard work pays off in every aspect of your life, including health.'

What do you think? Have you learnt from a past mistake? I would love to hear from you!

I really hope you enjoy the episode, and don't forget to hit the subscribe button!

Welcome to The Waffle Shop hosted by me Taylor James!

Joining me for a waffle this week is star of Love Is Blind UK and fellow mental health advocate Tom Stroud

Tom joins me for a waffle about his time on the smash hit Netflix show Love Is Blind UK, in which he received a bit of backlash regarding his opinions around finances

We have a waffle about the lessons he has learnt from his time on the show, the power of therapy, and how past events have impacted his relationships not only with others but also with himself. This episode is a really powerful reminder at just how powerful and important it is to talk, especially for us men.

I can't thank Tom enough for joining me for a waffle and for being so open and honest

Joining me for a waffle this week is my new favourite podcaster, Zoe Jackson!

Zoe is the host of the brilliant Anything but Ordinary Podcast, which was created because, like myself, she is a lover of all things conversation and collaboration!

Anything but Ordinary dives into the wonderful world of ultra-high net worth individuals and gets to know the people behind the businesses. Believe me when I say that this isn't just another business podcast; it not only offers an insight into an exciting world, it also offers a lot of incredible advice and a lot of heart!

We have a waffle about Zoe's entrepreneurial flair and how she found the confidence to take the leap and started her own business. We also dive into what success means to her and how a series of events have led her to appreciate and really embrace everything life has to offer!

Time for a long-overdue catch-up!

Joining me for a waffle that is 4 years in the making is my beautiful little sister Gemma

We have a waffle about life recently, hitting number 1 in Austria, and the Taylor Swift Eras Tour!

This was a nice little trip down memory lane, a real full-circle moment, and a brilliant opportunity to recognise just how far we have both come! We also waffle about all things change, the changes we've recognised in ourselves and the moments that changed our lives forever!

WAFFLING LIVE FROM WOW FEST!

This waffle is coming to you live from our very own stage at Wisdom on Wellness Festival in Surrey!

Joining me is a very good friend of mine, Marcus Kain

Marcus is a phenomenal coach with years of experience helping people with binge eating, stress management, and how to build their resilience. He is also the creator of the incredible Strong Not Starving social media platform and podcast, which I highly recommend!!

We have a waffle about diet culture, disordered eating, and the impact stress can have on our physical and mental health. Not only does Marcus share some incredible advice, he also shares his own personal journey and how he has turned his pain into his purpose.

My friendship with Marcus has been one of the best things that has come out of this podcast, as his support over the years has been incredible, it was an honour to share the stage and to hear first hand all about his journey so far

I want to thank the incredible team at WOW Fest for the opportunity, it was genuinely a bucket list moment for me!

Rob is a compelling and impactful speaker, celebrated for his remarkable journey and dedication to mental health advocacy and workplace wellbeing.

We have a waffle about his journey so far and how his time as a former front-line police officer changed the direction of his life forever. Rob is now on a mission to help educate workplaces on the importance of wellbeing to help prevent what happened to him happening to others.

I would highly recommend checking out Rob's website to find out more about him and the incredible work he does, you can also find him on Instagram and LinkedIn

This is a bucket list moment as this waffle is coming to you live from our headline slot at Wisdom on Wellness Festival in Surrey!

Joining me is a very dear friend of mine, Sophie Beresford!

For people who have been following the waffle for some time, you will know that me and Sophie connected through our work in the mental health space and have been pretty inseparable ever since!

We also have a waffle about the impact music has had on both of our lives and ask that all-important question: who would our dream Glastonbury headliners be?

Time for another catch-up!

This week is a full on whinge fest! That minging summer cold has hit the studio and it has hit hard!

Not so fresh from seeing Shania Twain headline Hyde Park, Taylor dives into the impact the songs have had on him and gives Luke an update in regards to the sleazy messages he was receiving!

The main takeaways from the episode are:

• Bart Simpson is Sabrina Carpenter's aunt?
• Being the villain
• Mental health being used as a weapon

This podcast is a bit chaotic compared to normal, but it felt good to have a bit of a rant!
