For the last of March's Inspirational Women episodes we're looking back to 2023 and our chat with Brenda Edwards. From X Factor to the West End and spot on the Loose Women panel Brenda has kept moving forward through times of tragedy. She is the very definition of inspiration. We hope you've enjoyed this look back at our fabulous femails - next month we'll turn our attention to four fantastic April fools... the best of the comedians we've spoken to over the past seven years. As ever - let us know what you think about the podcast - you can email [email protected], leave a review wherever you're listening to this podcast AND you can now watch highlights from our conversations on our new YouTube channel Cheers!

Born in Shanxi province, China in 1993 Carlos Gu was raised by his single mother who supported his dancing ambitions which saw him become a Chinese National Champion dancer. He’s been competing on a global stage since a young age but in 2022 he received the phone call he’d dreamed of – an invitation to join Strictly Come Dancing and a move to London – somewhere he’s always imagined could be his home. His new adopted home gave him a freedom to come-out as a gay man – something he’s described as being “reborn and to live the life that I've been dreaming of for years” He’s about to set out on tour with  fellow Strictly pro Amy Dowden – the show is called ‘Reborn 2.0’ a deeply personal show that tells the story of second-chapters and new beginnings.  The timing is perfect – as his dream gig got even better last Christmas when he partnered Karen Carney all the way to the final and lifted the glitterball trophy. What an incredible story... cheers! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Time for another trip to our cellar archive to find another brilliant inspiration woman - as we've been doing throughout March. This is one of our favourite EVER episodes - recorded in 2024 we surprised Jane McDonald with messages from her former colleagues on Loose Women as they reminisced over their favourite Jane moments. It's an absolute joy - and well worth another listen, Cheers! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
