This week’s guest is comedian and now author Kyla Cobbler.
Kyla and I sat down in Galway just as her first book, 'Happy, Thank You, More, Please' was released. We talk about the five-word mantra that has stayed with her since she was 21, her difficult experience of school, the unwavering support of her Mom, and her journey towards trusting herself and taking up space.
We also talk about coercive control, finding healthy love with her husband Simon, life under the patriarchy, beauty standards, ageing, honouring women’s cycles, strength training, and learning to appreciate the life you have while still being brave enough to ask for more.
'Happy, Thank You, More, Please' is out now, available in all good bookshops and as an audiobook and it is brilliant!
