LIVE 17: Be Inspired by The Royal Wedding & Laura JB, Advertising Guru

Wedding Fever continues in this week’s Badass Womens Hour and advertising legend Laura JB is in the hotseat to talk about women and diversity on and off the advertising screen.

Find yourself inspired to write a great Wedding Speech with speech writing expert Heidi Ellet-McDermott, as well as getting the Badass Women’s view on the Royal Wedding with Harriet Minter, Emma Sexton and journalist Melanie Eusabe who steps in to Natalise Campbells shoes this week.

All the usual news chat ensues with a debate on the Bank of England using the word "menopausal" in a description of work, and we find the company that has gone mega anti photoshop in their marketing photography.

And does your car terrify you? From changing tires to checking the oil to knowing how to outwit a mechanic in garage – we invite Rachel Bonfiglio, founder of the Ladies’ Car Workshop, to help you out with those concerns that are minor on the face of it, but major in the dealing of it. 

We love hearing from you so either leave a review, or contact us on the socials:
