Hello and welcome to episode 10. Today I am joined by motivational speaker, diversity consultant, life coach and model, Leo Collins. Leo has cerebral palsy.

As you can tell Leo has a heap of amazing stuff going on. He talks about his coaching that he's recently got into and says that his focus is going to be on coaching gratitude and positivity which is totally my vibe so I was proper chuffed when he reached out to me. This is a great chat with many giggles involved.

Episode 9 I'm joined by the relentlessly positive Tina. I love the way she calls falls random gravity checks. It's a perfect illustration of the way in which a seemingly bad thing can be given a positive spin and I absolutely love it.

Tina and I met at work in our current jobs and as soon as she told me she was an avid listener to the podcast I had to have her on.

Tina has cerebral palsy and gets around on her trusty wheelchair Diego. Hope you like our chat.

Episode 8 I am joined by the lovely Jo from Jo's Odd Shoes; an amazing Facebook group dedicated to providing either individual shoes, or odd sized pairs to those who need them.

Jo was diagnosed with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome about 20 years ago and has been living with chronic pain ever since.

The complications of which led to her getting her leg amputated in 2018.

As ever though there are always positives to be found, in Jo's case this pretty much entirely revolves around stalking Gary Barlow!! Hehe.

Hello, and welcome to episode 7 of 100% More Sock. Today I am joined by the lovely Lisa and we talk all about fibromyalgia and ehlers danlos syndrome and of course, as ever, the positive and happy bits surrounding that.

This is a very happy episode but there are a few swears and about half way through the topic of suicide does come up so please be aware.

I LOVE THIS EPISODE!! Today I am joined by the lovely Jen. Jen and I went to the same school but didn't actually know each other back then.

Following an accident that led to a broken leg and several surgeries, Jen chose to get her leg amputated. We were able to discuss many shared experiences, many of which I'd never spoken about with anyone ever before so for that (sorry everyone else) this is my favourite episode yet!

Hello! For episode 5 I chat to my pal Matt. Matt has moebius syndrome. I'd never heard of it before but Matt tells us all about it.

This is also the first episode where the intersectionality of disability and sexuality has come up.

For episode four I am joined by the lovely Alex. Alex has a great sense of humour and you can tell by the way I giggle the whole way through this that I had a fabulous time. Alex was full to the brim with tales and it was hard to pick what to keep in!

Alex has dyspraxia which has historically been known as clumsy child syndrome but there is far more to it than just being clumsy.

There are a few swears in this one.

This episode I am joined by the lovely Claire who has been blind since the age of 16. This is a bloomin' brilliant conversation that everyone should listen to. Claire has done some super amazing things in her life and I'm in awe of her ability to just go out and grab life by the balls. Metaphorical balls of course, not real balls.

The audio is a bit fuzzy on this one, I apologise, but please please stick with it because it is so worth it.
