The CIH Podcast episode 14 - Doing it on purpose... with Em Stroud

Join us for the second episode of our new series.

Welcome to the second episode of our new CIH podcast series, Doing it on purpose, hosted by CIH director of membership and business development, Josie Twinning.

In this podcast we’ll dive into conversations with women about work. It seeks to share stories, experiences, wisdom and all the messiness too. A space for women to belong, reflect and get lost in as we ‘find out who we are and do it on purpose’, these are words of the most rightly revered Dolly Parton.

In today's episode, Josie catches up with clown, best-selling author and co-founder of Laugh, Think and Play Em Stroud. Josie and Em discuss a little bit of everything, from what it means to be a mum, looking after our bodies as we continue to recover from COVID, and the real meaning of play.
