    "The brain can't separate fact from fiction."
    If you've got this far through my Podcast series and not heard me say that then I must boring after all because you clearly fell asleep, because I say it a lot. And for good reason.

    Episode 217: Forgive and Forget

    Filed in: Podcast written by: Richard Nicholls

    But language evolves. And maybe, to you, forgive and forget doesn't mean letting go of something so as to feel better. It means forgive the abuser and forget the victim. And it shouldn't.

    Bonus Episode: Andrea McLean

    Filed in: Podcast written by: Richard Nicholls Bonus Episode: Andrea McLean
    I was recently contacted by TV legend Andrea Mclean. Andrea has been working in the media for years but recently made the decision to take her life in a different direction and created an online community called This Girl Is On Fire all about personal growth.
    This week is the launch of an App that accompanies it and so I thought it would be nice to get her on the podcast to talk a little bit about it.
    I hope you find what we say useful!
