Welcome back to another episode of the WILD & WILD Podcast with your host, April Wild.

In this episode, April is joined by Sarah Jayne Dunn, best known for her iconic role as Mandy in Hollyoaks, a character she played from the age of fourteen. Sarah opens up about her very public departure from the show after sharing empowering online content that producers labelled inappropriate. Rather than shrinking herself, she chose to reclaim her voice, her confidence and her creative freedom.

Sarah talks candidly about stepping into her power, embracing self-expression and discovering a deep passion for pole dancing, an activity she finds liberating, strength-building and transformative. She encourages women to challenge outdated stigmas and taboos, and to pursue the practices that bring joy, confidence and fulfilment.

Together, April and Sarah discuss her early years in acting, how the industry has evolved and the pressures she faced growing up with her images edited to appear thinner or flawless. Sarah reflects on the competitive nature of the entertainment world and how refreshing it has been to find a community of supportive, uplifting and non-judgemental women through pole fitness.

She also shares what life looks like behind the scenes, including how she balanced school life, acting work and returning to the spotlight after maternity leave.

This episode is a powerful reminder of the importance of self-worth, authentic expression and finding spaces where women can thrive without judgement.

Welcome back to the WILD & WILD Podcast with your host, April Wild.

In this empowering episode, April is joined by Kate Harrison, TEDx speaker, author, chromotherapist and founder of ChroME, a women-led wellbeing brand dedicated to unlocking the power of colour and its impact on mood, mindset and emotional wellbeing.

Kate shares how, during the Covid period, seeing rainbows in windows became a powerful symbol of hope and connection. This moment inspired her to explore the science behind colour psychology and holistic wellness. Through her research, she discovered that different wavelengths of light are processed uniquely by the brain, influencing our emotions, energy levels and subconscious responses. Colour plays a vital role in women’s wellness, self-expression and personal growth.

Together, April and Kate explore how identifying your personal “soul colour” can support confidence, clarity and empowerment in both life and business. Kate explains how colour is scientifically proven to influence energy and emotional wellbeing, and how many women, especially mothers and female entrepreneurs, often “lose their pink” as they pour their energy into others. This can also happen to women in business, leaders and caregivers who prioritise everyone else before themselves.

This episode highlights the importance of self-care, balance and reconnecting with your identity as a woman. Colour carries frequency, and those frequencies affect how we think, feel and show up in the world. Reclaiming your colour can be a powerful step towards holistic wellness, feminine leadership and living a more aligned, purpose-driven life.

This conversation is perfect for women interested in wellness, empowerment, mindset, energy healing, women in business and personal development.

In this episode of the WILD & WILD Podcast, host April Wild is joined by Susannah Ashcroft Batty, an interactive and functional medical practitioner specialising in health, wellness and whole-body healing. Susannah’s work focuses on rebalancing the entire person, mind, body and lifestyle, rather than treating isolated symptoms.

Susannah shares how personal loss became the catalyst for her journey into the wellness space and ultimately led her to build a purpose-driven practice rooted in preventative health. Together, April and Susannah explore how to increase life expectancy, reduce the risk of chronic disease and create long-term vitality through intentional daily choices.

The conversation dives into the importance of whole foods, nourishing the body and caring for mental wellbeing as equally essential pillars of health. Susannah also discusses the benefits of breastfeeding and myth-busts common assumptions around intermittent fasting, highlighting that much of the existing research has been conducted on men and does not always translate to women’s bodies.

They also explore birth as a powerful, physiological experience rather than something to fear. Susannah explains the principles of hypnobirthing, why birth does not have to be traumatic and the deep connection between the mind and body during labour. She shares insights into the importance of vaginal birth and how informed, supported choices can transform the birthing experience.

This episode is an empowering listen for anyone interested in functional medicine, women’s health, longevity, conscious birthing and holistic wellbeing.
