How comfortable are you with nudity? Today, we’re speaking to Helen Berriman - who has been a naturist for the last four years - after reluctantly being introduced to it by her husband. Helen explained the difference between naturism and nudism, she ran through all the practicalities with us and debunked the misconception that naturism is about sex.We spoke about how being naked can have a huge positive impact on our body image - and the transformational effect being a naturist has had helping Helen to heal from past trauma. We also confront our personal concerns around safety - and consider our own boundaries when it comes to nudity. Listen to Helen’s podcast - British Naturism: Women In FocusRead more about British Naturism here - https://bn.org.uk/Support the Women in Naturism campaign hereFollow @helen.berriman on InstagramFollow @british_naturism on InstagramIf you want to get in touch you can email us on [email protected] Follow us on Instagram:@shouldideletethat@em_clarkson@alexlight_ldnShould I Delete That is produced by Faye LawrenceStudio Manager: Elliott MckayVideo Editor: Celia GomezSocial Media Manager: Sarah EnglishMusic: Alex Andrew Hosted on Acast.

Welcome back to another Just Us - in this week’s episode the SIDT Team has been bitterly divided by the ‘how often should you clean your bedsheets?’ debate… we also reveal that Alex is in fact *fussy* - and Em’s once again feeling overexposed… Do you have any whacky suggestions about how Al can learn to enjoy doing her duvet cover? Or would you be interested in watching a livestream of her attempting to strip the bed?

You asked - so we answered… Jameela Jamil is back on the podcast. Jameela is an actor and activist - she’s unapologetic and she’s not afraid of being disliked. There are very few people in Hollywood who speak out so openly, loudly and passionately about social justice, so we spoke to Jameela about why she feels equipped and compelled to speak out, and why others may not do the same… even when they know they should. We also spoke to Jameela about the death of the body positivity movement, the Ozempic Era and her view on celebrities glamourising the return of ultra-thinness as the mainstream beauty ideal. Be prepared to get angry, impassioned and ready to fight back...

Emma Barnett is a broadcaster, journalist and author who we admire hugely. She is one of the BBC’s most high-profile journalists who is currently part of the presenting team on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme - as well as previously hosting Women’s Hour and Newsnight. Alongside her incredible broadcasting career, Emma has also become a powerful advocate for women’s health - having chosen to speak up about her very difficult IVF journey as well as struggling with both endometriosis and adenomyosis. Emma told us about why she chose to bring her private reality into light to advocate for women’s health and to disrupt the assumptions that we may hold about ‘serious’ news presenters. We also spoke to Emma about interviewing Kate Bush, what happened when she called out Rory Stewart for lying on air and why she is concerned about women feeling the need to be liked all the time. Experiences that have reshaped lives. Bold questions, unexpected truths, lots of tea... Emma Barnett invites you into her world for deeply human conversations. You can listen to episodes on BBC Sounds HERE.

Today, we’re continuing our exploration of friendship with the brilliant Michelle Elman. We spoke to Michelle about how friendship is not taken seriously - and female friendships in particular are trivialised. Michelle gave us practical advice on how to operate in a world where the odds feel stacked against our friendships - where they seemingly have to battle with social media, our adult responsibilities and our romantic relationships. Our conversation covers everything from confrontation to ghosting - so if you feel like you need help being a better friend, or if you want to navigate a friendship break up - this is the episode for you. Follow @michelleelman on InstagramMichelle’s new book Bad Friend: Why Friendship Breakups Hurt and How to Heal is available nowIf you want to get in touch you can email us on [email protected] Follow us on Instagram:@shouldideletethat@em_clarkson@alexlight_ldnShould I Delete That is produced by Faye LawrenceStudio Manager: Elliott MckayVideo Editor: Celia GomezSocial Media Manager: Sarah EnglishMusic: Alex Andrew Hosted on Acast.

We’re often given advice about how we should nurture our romantic relationships - but sometimes we can leave our friendships by the wayside… We spoke to Natasha Silverman - a relationship therapist - about how to maintain and nurture our friendships as we navigate our way through adulthood. And to do that - we put OUR relationship under the microscope. Natasha gave us practical advice about how to maintain friendships when you have children, how to deal with feelings of loss when your friends meet different milestones to you, how to communicate about when you feel left out and how small acts can help your friends feel more loved. Follow @tashtalkstherapy on Instagram Follow @tashtalkstherapy on TikTokRead more about Natasha’s work - https://natashasilverman.com/If you want to get in touch you can email us on [email protected] Follow us on Instagram:@shouldideletethat@em_clarkson@alexlight_ldnShould I Delete That is produced by Faye LawrenceStudio Manager: Elliott MckayVideo Editor: Celia GomezSocial Media Manager: Sarah EnglishMusic: Alex Andrew Hosted on Acast.
