Women What Whistle


This podcast is about not falling in line or fading away. Stories of bravery, accounts of resilience and even tales of sheer bloody-mindedness. It’s about finding our voice, and sometimes our brave, through the stories of other women who’ve had to find theirs.

Did you know that people who are happy, are said to live for 10 years longer than those who aren’t? In our quest for happiness we seem to scrabble around to fill our lives with more stuff and so in this podcast we take inspiration from a totally different perspective. We take inspiration from acclaimed NHS nurse Christie Watson and from her book The Language of Kindness alongside Giles Brandreth’s book The 7 Secrets of Happiness.

We also discuss how we can be more wise with our fashion choices, we whizz through some statistics from a recent white paper published on fast fashion and how we need to be more aware of the impact on the environment and take into account Vivienne Westwood’s words from a number of years ago “Buy less, choose well, make it last”

Here is the YouTube link for Christie Watson speaking at the RCN Congress last year and a great quote, taken from 7 Secrets of Happiness from the Dalai Lama - Choose to be optimistic, it feels better.

Enjoy!
