Today, we’re going to talk about Alex’s IVF story. After watching the new Netflix film JOY - Al was inspired to speak about her journey to having IVF, after having felt like it wasn’t something she was able to discuss online. We go through the entire journey that has led to Tommy being with us here today - and we hope this conversation is helpful for anyone else who is experiencing something similar or who might not understand the complexity of IVF - and how amazing that it is that science enables us to do this.JOY - The Birth of IVFHERTILITY: At home hormone and fertility testsLAURA ADLINGTON ON SIDT: Bake off and body acceptanceTHE INFERTILE MIDWIFE ON SIDTEMMA THE EMBRYOLOGIST ON SIDT: Demystifying FertilityED JACKSON KERRI NORTHCOTT: Life with Ivy Coco GLASS BY MICHELLE ANDREWSGAIA FAMILYEmail us on shouldideletethatpod@gmail.comFollow us on Instagram:@shouldideletethat@em_clarkson@alexlight_ldnShould I Delete That? is produced by Faye Lawrence Music by Alex Andrew

After Al revealed she has *romantic feelings* for Shrek - we decided to ask you guys about your cartoon crushes… and be warned - they get a little freaky. Can you have a crush on a candle? Could you be in a long term relationship with Aladdin? Is the Beast as Beastly as he seems? We also segue into hypothetical wishes, a hilarious childhood prank and Hugh Grant’s hatred of backpacks. Does your heart yearn for a cartoon that we've forgotten to mention?

Faye Winter appeared on Love Island in 2021 and when she left the villa she was faced with a lot of noise and a lot of criticism. In this episode, Faye chats candidly about seeing herself in a different light, admitting she was wrong, and how she apologised and is working towards becoming a better person. Faye tells us about her desire to live a normal life after appearing on the show - but how some people can perceive that as a failure, and how the choices that influencers make are dictated and driven by their audience engagement. We also have a candid chat about Faye’s experience with filler - and how it is unregulated in the UK. Faye shares a horror story about botox and explains why she’s so vocal about the topic now. Thanks so much to Hinge for sponsoring this episode. The dating app, which is designed to be deleted, inspires daters to take it slow this holiday season and reflect on the learnings from the past year. As we near the end of 2024, it’s the perfect time for a profile refresh demonstrating the person you’ve grown into this year and creating New Year’s intentions #HingePartner ADFollow @faye__winter on InstagramEmail us on shouldideletethatpod@gmail.comFollow us on Instagram:@shouldideletethat@em_clarkson@alexlight_ldnShould I Delete That? is produced by Faye Lawrence Music by Alex Andrew

Lucky you - it’s another episode featuring husky Alex! It’s all been A LOT lately, so in this week's IIJM we lift the lid onto how much we’re literally hanging on by a thread. We’ve been working hard getting our body image series ready for the new year - so today we have a chat about putting pressure on ourselves, our organisational styles and how we cope working so closely together. It turns into a bit of a therapy session...We have an awkward all the way from Cape Town, a deep chat about animal hybrids and we ponder how far the human species would have got if it was made up of only Als and Ems (spoiler alert: probably not far)Do you a have an Is It Just Me or an awkward for us?

Silly season is upon us - and a lot of us associate Christmas with drinking. But it doesn’t necessarily have to be that way. Today - we’re speaking to Millie Gooch, the founder of Sober Girl Society - the largest community for sober and sober curious women on the planet. Millie tells us the story of how and why she stopped drinking and gives us some practical advice on how we can navigate Christmas if we’re trying to stay sober, become sober or even just explore more sober experiences. Find out more about The Sober Girl Society’s events and workshops here: https://sobergirlsociety.com/Millie's new book, Booze Less, provides a mindful guide to sobriety and personal growth, designed to help readers rethink their relationship with alcohol while practicing self-compassion. Millie would love to share insights from Booze Less with your audience, discussing practical ways to approach sobriety and mindfulness, and offering her perspective on wellness trends and the cultural shift around drinking habits. You can buy your copy here!Follow @milliegooch on InstagramFollow @sobergirlsociety on InstagramEmail us on shouldideletethatpod@gmail.comFollow us on Instagram:@shouldideletethat@em_clarkson@alexlight_ldnShould I Delete That? is produced by Faye Lawrence Music by Alex Andrew
